Yesterday I said this was all about CNN. I was correct. If he gets his hands on this network it will affect the entire world & what they are told in broadcasting. This will b/c a right wing vehicle for getting their views out above all else. To influence other countries elections for themselves.

Hegseth will get a pardon. But will you? Don’t risk life in prison. DISOBEY unlawful orders. bsky.app/profile/bran...
Hegseth is very transparently blaming a Navy admiral for his own decision. Let this be a lesson for every other military officer: The Trump administration will issue unlawful orders, then blame you for following them.

We’ve all heard the F word quite a bit these days. I’m talking, of course, about fascism.
But what is its exact definition? What forms has it taken in the past? And is it happening here? https://youtu.be/jWYqrVsBvwI

My review of the Superman film.
I’d seen murmurings from MAGAs that the movie was “woke” (used as a pejorative) and “anti-Israel.” Not only are these claims false, but I can tell why this movie angered the MAGA cult. Here’s why Superman is a must see:

This Fourth of July, I am taking a moment to reflect. Things are hard right now. They are probably going to get worse before they get better.
But I love our country — and when you love something, you fight for it. Together, we will continue to fight for the ideals of our nation.

Everyone should say it:
The thing about Stephen Miller is not that he is the brains behind Trumpism.
Yes, he is one of the people who conceptualizes the impulses of the Trumpist movement and translates them into policy.
But that's not what's interesting about Miller.
It's not brains. It's bile.
