Do we get to give special thanks to Ron DeSantis for scheduling this election at Trump's Nadir? Like if this happens 2 weeks ago, likely some different results Lol
Then again...

Donald Trump letting you know how the authoritarian capture of the media is going, in case you missed it. Unlike other authoritarians in places like Hungary and Poland he has no worries about advertising his authoritarian take over of the media.
It's almost fucking impressive if it weren't so goddamned bleak

The richest man owns X.
The second and third richest men control Google.
The fourth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.
The fifth richest man owns The Washington Post.

This technology could be game-changing: lower coca cultivation, more security in Colombia, less deadly drugs reaching American streets, and more lives saved. A great opportunity for increased EL counternarcotics results. 2:15 PM • 2/13/26 • 101K Views
The Bureau of International Narcotics & Law Enforcement in the State Department (INL) have been the biggest boosters of forced crop eradication in the drug war. Here they gleefully gloat about resuming the spraying of glyphosate in one of the most biodiverse countries on the planet. #ShovelingWater
U.K. action helps expose DOJ coverup:
Feb 7: Bondi DOJ memo: "We did not uncover evidence that could predicate an investigation against uncharged third parties."
Sept 16: Kash Patel testimony: "There is no credible information, none" that Epstein trafficked girls to other men.
