the correct response to this moment is "we must cleanse the government with the holy fire of retribution" not "we also need to do stupid populism"

1. I know the idea of "norms" went out with Cheers and technically there's no law about presidential medical disclosures, but the White House and its doctors covering up the president's true medical condition ought to be a Watergate-level scandal

3. It's critical for the media to ask about these absences and bruises at every opportunity and work their sources for evidence that will expose the on-the-record lies. The public has an inalienable right to know the physical and mental health of a man with the ability to order a nuclear attack -30-

Honestly, all greater political considerations aside, it’s just really fucking obnoxious how many Americans seem to think it’s cheating for the other side to shoot back in a war. I mean look, I’m no fan of the Iranian regime, but buy the ticket, take the ride.

it's worth noting that the quote they went out of their way to make look stupid was expressing a reasonable point — a restatement of the long-standing official US policy in fact! — and the quote they clean up and sanitize is expressing a deranged threat of war crimes in an illegal conflict

Particularly alarming that this includes Lebanon & Gaza. I had just shared imagery from March 18 showing the demolition of villages along the southern border of Lebanon by the IDF and now not even that imagery is available: bsky.app/profile/godi...

Mass demolitions haven't stopped in Gaza, either.

Just had this from Planet Labs, the US government have asked satellite imagery providers for "voluntarily" restrictions on access to satellite imagery. Given a lot of them provide satellite imagery to the USG we can probably guess the outcome of not acquiescing to that request.

Partial blame to Microsoft and Zoom for normalizing the need to install new software just to make video calls, despite browsers being perfectly capable. They make it extra hard to even find the web-only links.

it’s not surprising exactly but it is still shocking just how fast we’ve moved from “woke was excessive” framing to open and explicit white male supremacy

but it’s pretty depressing how fast they were able to move to being completely open with it

no fig leaves, no bullshit excuses, just “fire all the black people and the women”

Pam Bondi still has to testify, under oath, in front of the Oversight Committee regarding the Epstein Files. This does not get her out of that bipartisan, lawful subpoena.

We will see her soon.
