In the same manifesto, Palantir's owners argued that we need a national military draft, that soft power is over, and that we were too hard on Germany and Japan after World War II. I don't think that company should be allowed to exist anymore.
Average GOP Congressman: We err...uhhh...don't uh need uh...oversight of the DoD because uh...we trust the President to decide what's best
Donald Trump: I AM JESUS CHRIST RETURNED TO EARTH THE POPE ISN'T MAGA AND HE'S WEAK ON NUCLEAR WEAPONS I AM GOING TO BUILD A HOTEL ON THE MOON
Contrary to public perception a huge % of pregnant teenagers in the 1990s were impregnated by adult men. The younger they were, the larger the average age gap between mother and father was. Fixing teen pregnancy was in part a clampdown on statutory rape. That's what conservatives want to reverse.
Most of the social programs that are routinely dismissed in American politics as "unrealistic" or "too expensive" could have been paid for multiple times over by the cost of this war so far, much less the costs to come.
It's never the money.
This is very very big. Like a big deal and massive cuts. These can’t even be seen as budgetary since you don’t get much savings in the context of trillions budget. They want the US out of R&D out of science research.
these are exactly the stakes! embracing trump’s view would be embracing the cramped vision of freedom and belonging that we fought a civil war to banish to the ash heap of history
The fact that Trump is going to oral arguments to pressure the justices to acquiesce to his attempted nullification of a constitutional amendment and create a stateless class for the first time since the civil war, illustrates what is really at the core of the Trump project and it isn’t tariffs.
Also, be sure not to spread this video of Justin Fox, the other DOGE bro who revealed that he's a malicious moron who caused incredible destruction.
Do not hurt Justin Fox's reputation just by linking Justin Fox's name to the sworn testimony Justin Fox gave about what Justin Fox did.
They made them take down the videos because they would cause "reputational damage" to people like this young man, Nathan Cavanuagh, so definitely don't post this all over the internet with the name Nathan Cavanaugh attached, or this guy might suffer reputational damage. This guy, Nathan Cavanaugh.
cannot emphasize enough that these people are genocidal mass murderers. 100s of thousands of people are dead because of shuttering of US AID. these people did that. they are Nazi mass murderers.
so it seems like american service members are dying to ensure Netanyahu's reelection.
With the assassination of the ayatollah (!) it sure seems like Bibi and Trump — now openly calling for urgent regime change — are forcing the Iranian people into a civil war, whether they’re ready for it or not. Unless of course we’re going in to secure the country www.axios.com/2026/02/28/t...
This is illegal act of war committed by a president who is actively trying to cover up evidence he sexually assaulted a 13 year old girl.
This should not be treated as legitimate in any way.
I’m sorry, but we can’t allow this dying pedophile to launch an unconstitutional war.
this is what Nazis did to Jews. the first step is denying them citizenship and access to public life. from there you move swiftly towards extermination.

The dream of technology is a planet devoid of life where a single iPad asks what minor league baseball team Michael Jordan played for during his retirement and an artificial intelligence responds “splorps”
Can you imagine if Biden's labor secretary was having an affair with one of her staffers while her husband was barred from the labor department because he sexually assaulted two women who work there?
What would GOP be doing?
It would not be hard to use this to make Bannon's ties to Meloni a problem.
A movement led by a born-rich billionaire with an Ivy League degree, a Yale lawyer/venture capitalist who wrote a book looking down on the working class, the world’s richest man, and a scion of the most famous political family on a fad diet of “ferments”—and the term for this movement is “populist”?
Democracy dies in oligarchy.
I am beginning to think that the Royal Rumble is not Penta's specialty
He gets lost in the shuffle right now but what RFK Jr has done to public health haa definitely merited inclusion.
If this is what they do when they're out on the street with people pointing cameras at them, what do you think is happening inside the ICE prison camps that they keep denying Members of Congress access to?
if Trump were actively trying to impoverish and deskill the united states for the sake of our competitors, what would he be doing differently?
I would be very surprised if a full accounting in the future didn't reveal more than one mass grave at the detention centers. If they're behaving this way in public, what's happening out of sight must be many times more brutal.
Both the ones here and the multiple third-country torture camps they're shipping people to.
Between what's almost certainly underreported in the domestic ones they're running, plus third countries, plus the boat strikes, it is fairly likely they have already murdered into the hundreds of people.
wrote about the camps for my newsletter this weekend www.nytimes.com/2026/01/24/o...
Children screaming and crying can be heard as a possible uprising is underway at the ICE Children's Concentration Camp in Dilley, TX (1/24/26).
