We are seeing dozens of these videos every day. It's happening all over the ocuntry. I know many people are outraged but it's just continuing unabated.

This feeling of impotence is devastating. How does it end? With the country emptied of brown people and dissidents in jail?

The elimination of USAID is a moral atrocity and all involved made a choice to enable, and then lie about, ending the lives of some of the most vulnerable people in the world.

NFL and MLB owners certainly are free to hold moments of silence for Charlie Kirk. That's fine.

My question is why they don't hold them for victims of all the mass shootings?

I would love sports reporters to call and ask.

The Post and Matt Viser are suggesting that 22 yrs ago someone impersonated Donald Trump in response to a request from Ghislaine Maxwell to Trump and created a fake card to embarrass him 22 yrs later when he would be President. I'm not going to dignify this nonsense with anything but laughter

Why is the Washington Post treating this like it's a serious thing and not a sad and pathetic delusion? www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
Trump badly wants a Nobel Peace Prize. Most on the committee oppose him.
At least three of the five members of the Norwegian prize committee have criticized Trump publicly, making his path to winning their votes far from clear.

RUSSIA. STARTED. THE. WAR. YOU. LUNATIC.
Trump: "People go into war, think they're gonna win the war, then they get their asses kicked & they lose their country and lose millions of lives. Nobody goes into a war thinking they're gonna lose. I'm sure Ukraine thought they were gonna win. You're gonna beat somebody that's 15 times your size"

So, no national guard on January 6th, but definitely on August 11th. Makes total sense.

Any American journalist who doesn’t *instantaneously* see what this is—Ghislaine Maxwell, desperately seeking a pardon from Trump, negotiating privately to say whatever he wants her to say in public to get a pardon (now or anytime during her twenty-year prison bid)—should quit their job immediately.

The fact we have secret police whisking people off the streets doesn’t get enough attention. It ain’t normal and we’re further down the road to authoritarianism than you think.

They’re planning on building a detention center for migrants in the middle of the fetid swamps of Florida.

If you think this is something new, the first internment camp they sent me and my family to in 1942 was a barbed wire prison called Rohwer. It was located in the swamps of Arkansas.
