IMO, per all evidence, Putin/Trump/Musk/GOP/Project 2025 criminal corporate fascists won 2024 & 2016 via Russian style advanced social manipulation tactics & Cambridge Analytics type algorithms to micro-target districts w/ lies/fear/hate. NOT altered vote count. They want us to lose faith in voting.
Today's winner of the Internet. Congratulations!
The task of de-Trumpification of science and public health will take a generation and a "Marshall Plan" to rebuild. Without a bold, expansive vision to guide us, there is no coming back. Small-bore, poll-tested versions of the future will not help us. www.thenation.com/article/soci...
This war is so damn confusing. It’s why we shouldn’t let drunks and dementia patients run it.
Very factual information 😳😳😡🤬
The result has been something like an inverse caricature of Republican complaints about diversity, equity, and inclusion, a system in which the incompetent rise not because of their abilities but because of their sycophancy. Authoritarian regimes behave as the Trump administration is behaving—optimizing for political loyalty rather than competence. Merit, in short, has little to do with it. Hegseth is a prime example. Deeply unqualified for the job and convinced that brutality provides an easy path to victory, he has led the United States to the verge of a strategic defeat with a weaker adversary in Iran. The current cease-fire leaves Iran with a more hard-line government than before, one in total control of a shipping lane crucial to the world economy. The Islamic Republic is arguably in a stronger position today than it was when the war started, and probably in a stronger position than it was before Trump, in his first term, scrapped the Obama-era nuclear deal. On Sunday, Trump posted on his social network a refrain that he and his toadies seem to think is insightful: “If you import The Third World, you become The Third World!” This archaic social Darwinism is the ideological mortar of the Trump project. It fuses Hegseth’s disdain for diversity in the military’s senior leadership and valorization of brutality with the administration’s attack on birthright citizenship and its deployment of federal agents to occupy American cities. It is a worldview that would assume an easy victory against a country like Iran, especially with America’s new, “unwoke” military. Bigotry isn’t just inefficient, as the U.S. military discovered in the 1940s. It also makes you stupid.
Wrote about how Hegseth’s effort to resegregate the upper ranks of the US military ties into the larger MAGA project to restore hierarchies of race and gender: www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...
It’s hard to overstate how much of this moment is driven by people who got a taste of accountability and were very, very mad about it.
Release all the Epstein files now!

EPSTEIN FILES NOW
a single vote in the court against birthright citizenship should prove to every liberal court reporter or follower that it is an illegitimate institution that should never be taken seriously and needs to be diminished or fully abolished rather than reformed
it won't be of course but it should be

That’s an excellent question.

Me too, Mark
Why was a convicted felon allowed to vote in Florida elections when desantis made such a big deal about arresting felons who voted in past elections?
Post it in the bulletin board. You may never see it again!
If only it wasn't for the poisoned pill snuffing of the public option.
The real story… under any other president this would be jail time…
"Over the last few years, American tech oligarchs have become the greatest argument against their own existence.
The sheer scale of their erratic behavior and political interference proves that extreme wealth concentration is a structural threat to society."

Evil, big lie sack of shit.
Yeah
Another word you might use for it is "looting".
"This appears to be the first administration to take such widespread advantage of taxpayer-funded military housing to accommodate political appointees who do not have a direct connection to the military..."

In the past couple days, some major shit has hit the fan.
One of the jail guards made some BIG deposits into her bank account around the time Epstein "killed himself" & Epstein's victims have announced they're getting ready to drop their own list of names.
That explains the Massie rant.
