NEW EPISODE: I sit down with Tim Miller of The Bulwark. We discussed defending democracy against Trump's authoritarian project. Tim pulls no punches on what he's witnessed from inside the Republican Party — and why so many elites are choosing to stay silent www.youtube.com/watch?v=RHcA...
I wish everyone at Grammarly a very expensive lawsuit.
Gave up all of the currency and promise of the “idea” of America (however flawed), in exchange for “we kill people. We kill lots of people.”
Cape Town and other areas of South Africa’s Western Cape Province saw record temperatures for March as a heat wave sears a region that’s vulnerable to both drought and wildfires
You just know that Fox News or CBS is cooking up an article like this.
A new Silicon Valley military complex is emerging around firms like Palantir, whose AI tools fuse surveillance data for warfare, policing, & border control. This shift concentrates power over security policy in a small group of tech billionaires with little public oversight.

To the "I didn't vote for this" folks. You voted for a convicted felon. A twice-impeached president. A man found liable for sexual abuse, who tried to overthrow an election. And now gas prices are surging, we're at war, and soldiers are coming home in coffins. This is what you voted for. All of it.
Billionaires’ % share of federal election spending in:

"For the next phase of my career, I look forward to some independence and finding new spaces to share my work in line with my personal goals."
Another CBS News journalist leaving and talking about independence. Bit of a not-so-subtle hint at what's happening over there.
Trump *is* doing debt cancellation.
It's just not your student or medical debts.
In his second term alone, Trump has already canceled $1.5 billion of criminal debt — payments fraudsters owe the federal government and victims.
They don't mind debt cancellation—for themselves.
Millionaires stopped paying into Social Security for the rest of 2026 today.
Billionaires stopped paying in on January 1st.
You're going to pay in for 298 more days.
This makes zero sense. The wealthy should pay in all year like the rest of us.
Scrap the cap.
Not only this — but donors who give $1M+ to a Trump-backed group organizing events for the nation's 250th anniversary will gain special access to, and can seek favors from, Trump himself.
Everything is for sale. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/08/u...
It was not enough for Elon Musk's minions to gut the Social Security Agency.
An ex-DOGE engineer allegedly took SSA's master databases of personal information to a job in the private sector.
DOGE was never about fighting fraud. It was about exposing Americans to more of it.
It would have to be really something to beat the audio from a TV ad for SD Tourism in 2023, reproduced here in its entirety, with an extra sound effect added at the end.
Johnson: I think what we are learning from the Epstein files was a well-coordinated act of treason. If you think about how they use blackmail to get policymakers to act outside of the best interests of this nation and our Constitution, that’s treason.
Cahoots is part of a cabal of words which grab prepositions to surround them, like

Spite
Accordance
Addition
Regard

This is clearly fine with the GOP.
👀 ICE deported two U.S. citizen children with their mother to Guatemala, even though she had apparently elected to leave them with their grandmother in Florida.
The govt is now arranging their return under court order: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

🥳 Let's enjoy this fElon moment: he wants a mistrial...bc the current jury hates him. 🤣
Shareholders accuse "Musk of allegedly violating securities law by making misleading public statements in an effort to push Twitter’s stock price down before he bought the platform in Oct 2022."

❗The regime's Dept of Veterans Affairs thinks our veterans are, by default, criminals:
It's launching an automated tool to scan more than 1M disability benefits claims for evidence of fraud. This could force a new medical exam & impact compensation.
Sure it will be error-free.
