Crypto isn't currency. It isn't even an asset. It is a financial virus designed to privatize money, let corporations run chit-based company stores, and cut nations & central banks off from their own money supply.

Regulated stablecoins are a way for the parasite to get easier control of the host.

WARREN: Can POTUS legally tell the IRS to change someone's nonprofit status?

BILLY LONG: I'm not able to answer

WARREN: You can't read these words and tell me what those words say?!

LONG: I can read the statute and I did

WARREN: Then tell me what they mean!

Starting to think that bombarding people with content designed to make them ill-informed, angry, and antisocial for hours upon hours a day has been a real disaster for society and possibly not one we can come back from in our lifetimes

Trump is doing a great job convincing everyone that there’s nothing to gain by playing his game

Sure, let’s dissect the mental and physical acuity of the former president who sought to make lives in America better while minimizing the reality of a deranged arsonist dismantling the country we’ve known and loved. What a failure to meet this moment.

Under civil service rules it’s not actually a gift if it is made available in the regular course of business to members of the public without regard to their official status.

So all Qatar has to do is give every American a $400 million “palace in the sky” as a gift as they’re good.

So let me get this straight: masks are bad and un-American if worn to fight a pandemic, but good if worn by people claiming to be government agents when they kidnap people off the street

Could not agree more! My book, Saving Apartheid: White Internationalism at the End of the Cold War, traces exactly this transatlantic connection between apartheid and the American right from 1980 to 1994. Out with Columbia University Press late 2025/early 2026!
based on some reading i'm doing at the moment, there is a book to be written — if it already hasn't been — on defense of apartheid south africa as the great international cause of the american right

Sue them.
Congresswoman Lamonica McIver accuses ICE of assaulting her and two other members of Congress who were attempting to do their statutory duty by visiting the facility.

Rep. Menendez Jr. says ICE brought 20 armed agents to intimidate them.

“Abolish ICE” is the moderate position. Radical is “prosecute every ICE employee under RICO.”

Federal agents' seemingly universal adoption of neck gaiters worn just below the eyes like they're robbing the railroad is emblematic of this time in the US

It’s weird to live in a time when basic principles like cruelty is wrong, cheating is empty & the idea that curiosity, generosity, originality, the satisfaction of earned accomplishments & loving intimacy are the center of a good life feel like countercultural concepts
