It’s so hard to read this and not think about the many, many indictments of Trump and his co-conspirators. And the evidence here seems thinner.

Nick Fuentes: A White Nationalist Problem for the Right

This is a good time to re-read the NYT’s profile of Nick Fuentes from last week and the far-right anti-Semitic, deeply racist “groyper” movement that appears to have motivated Tyler Robinson. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/09/u...

Charlie Kirk, his Culture War Tour and Groyper trolls Charlie Kirk’s Culture War college tour was increasingly haunted by Groyper trolls that frame Charlie Kirk as a fake, 'anti-white' conservative. This article explains how.

This article is a bit old, but I just had no understanding of this conflict between the far right TPUSA faction and the even farther right, nationalist, Christian new right "groypers." It's just insane and scary.

The ref cam is kinda cool, tbh. I’m just having trouble speaking or writing or thinking the words “da zone.”

New images could change cancer diagnostics. ICE detained Harvard scientist who analyzes them. Without scientist Kseniia Petrova’s expertise, no one can fully unlock the data’s potential, putting crucial advancements in early cancer detection at risk.

I know that countless international academics are being arrested by ICE, but Ksenila’s story is heartbreaking and Dems need to sing it from the mountaintops: A unique and brilliant mind who will end up in a Russian gulag if deported while humanity looses a vital cancer researcher. It’s insanity.

We're not done yet | 18F

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.

18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.

We made this website to tell our story:

How Trump’s Tariffs Could Affect American Companies (Gift Article) Business owners told The Times that President Trump’s tariffs could lead to higher costs and expressed frustration at the sudden uncertainty about policy.

Sorry small business owners, but you voted for this tariff madness, guess you're going to have to deal with it.

Wait for it...

"Ms. Campbell, the seller of religious goods, said she was contemplating passing some of the additional costs from tariffs on to her customers."

There has been a lot of chatter today about Zelenskyy's meeting with Trump, some regarding this moment when White House correspondent Brian Glenn asked if the Ukrainian president plans to wear a suit. I want to address idea in this thread. 🧵

Trump is an international disgrace. The way he treated Zelensky was un-American. Only a traitor who is Putin's puppet would be this horrible. Unforgivable.

Corporate leaders who were fine with Trump sadistically imposing mass suffering on vulnerable groups as long as they got their tax cuts deserve every last bit of what this madman is now unleashing on them with these tariffs. Assholes.

I really can’t wrap my head around congressional Democrats’ response to the past 12 days of crises. It reeks of pathetic capitulation. Trump is asserting dictatorial powers of absolute control over the entire government and the reaction is “we don’t swing at every pitch”? An appalling abdication.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

Bidenomics Was Wildly Successful The president’s domestic record wasn’t just extraordinary. It might put Democrats back in power in four years.

GDP has risen 12.6 percent over Biden’s tenure, far outpacing both predictions made even before Covid became a household name and growth in other advanced countries.

Opinion | If Anyone Can Save the Democrats, It’s Ben Wikler This Wisconsinite is the obvious choice for D.N.C. chair.

Suddenly, Trump’s Ugliest Threats Are Facing Surprise GOP Resistance One of Trump’s central campaign claims was that green energy and immigration pose a massive threat to American workers. But now it seems local Republicans think otherwise.

Of course @gregsargent.bsky.social is right. Just as Trump will use tariff exemptions to extort private favors, he'll use deportation exemptions for same. The livelihood and security of cleaners reduced to whether their hotel's CEO has flattered Trump or lined his pockets or undermined a shared foe.

It defies logic. I didn’t understand when it happened, I don’t understand today, & I still won’t understand tomorrow. I just continue to distract myself, allow some moments of anger & sadness here & there then I breathe deeply & hope against hope that the world doesn’t fall apart.

Well here’s a description of his boarding-school educated “southern belle” mother, from her obituary:

“she was the first in the area to begin mixing antique furniture with what is now known as mid-century modern… Barbara was also a stickler for dress, manners, grammar and cocktails with dinner.”
