If Dems fail to make Signal leak an incessant story demanding resignations/impeachment, it would be a mirror image of Benghazi, her emails, etc. In face of GOP zone-flooding, Dems cowered instead of calling bullshit; now when GOP says Signal leak is NBD, a failure to push back would be catastrophic.

The conservative ideology is on such shaky ground that they have to control every social media algorithm and persecute progressive activists on behalf of billionaires just to tip the scales in their favor. Without censorship, repression, and infinite resources, American conservatism would collapse.

.@elonmusk just called Senator Mark Kelly a “traitor.” Every Republican Member of Congress should be asked immediately if they agree with Musk.

Colorado's Rep Brittany Pettersen (D) flew cross-country with her one-month-old to vote against the GOP budget tonight. Dems ended up one vote short. Pettersen was part of an unsuccessful bipartisan push to allow new mothers to vote remotely. #copolitics

"If the GOP could pull Trump’s dick out of their mouths long enough for the oxygen to return to their brains, they might see how batshit crazy it is to run a govt like this... But that would require a spine and these Republicans have the collective courage of a baby deer caught in a 6-lane highway."

He's pretty easily triggered. I called him "Bongdildo" and it set him off for a half a decade.
Excited to learn that there is going to be a deputy director of the FBI who once replied to me in a testy fashion after I tweeted something like "Don Bingbongo" at him.

All Pete Hegseth talks about is being a warrior and instilling a warrior mindset in the military. Personal courage is the cornerstone of the warrior ethos. I wonder how that fits with being such a coward as to fire generals with 35 or more years of service in a press release on a Friday night.

A thing to understand here is that Wired + Teen Vogue is Condé Nast — this is the Newhouse family being basically the only good billionaire publishers. Other than them, it’s the indies of the new alt media and stalwarts like ProPublica and then basically crickets.
Is it just me or has WIRED been dogwalking the rest of the media on this story
NEW: An internal email obtained by WIRED from a threat intelligence team monitoring US Treasury systems advised labeling DOGE operatives an "insider threat," adding that it recommended suspending their access "immediately."
