I don’t think this shit will work but i never want to hear about free speech from any trumpers or anti anti trumpers ever again, fuck off forever bsky.app/profile/cram...
Doing systemic racism to eliminate research on systemic racism to make systemic racism easier to hide and deny.
We can’t do gender studies, but let’s watch government-produced videos splicing war footage with video games, football highlights, and action movies scenes
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.
“With all newspapers in Germany being told what to publish and how to write the news and editorials, it was inevitable that a deadly conformity would come over the nation’s press.”
- William Shirer, The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich, p. 406
An infographic titled "president Trump is reshaping the media", reposted from his truth social account.
Donald Trump is now just openly bragging about interfering in the media. He's the president. He's running a truck over the first amendment here.
“So much winning”
Almost like it was a mistake to alienate all of our allies with idiotic trade wars, and then launch an actual hot war where we needed their help gcaptain.com/trump-calls-...
An obscure methodological tweak -- a change in the source of data on the price of legal services -- resulted in meaningfully lower monthly PCE inflation in January. That's prompting questions about why the change was made and why it wasn't disclosed publicly.

His whole life, Trump has always had someone else around to bail him out of the messes he creates: his father, Allen Weisselberg, the "adults in the room" in his first term. Now all those protectors are gone and he is openly begging for someone to save him from his own folly.
Unbelievable
Same same same!
I want the next Democratic president, on Day One, to arrest Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth, put them in a C-130 to The Netherlands, and tells the Hague to do its worst. I don't care if it upends their first 100 days agenda. We never get the Rule of Law back without enforcing laws.

One of the people killed in that air tanker crash, Tyler Simmons, was from Columbus. This is him in high school in 2014, playing for Eastmoor. Trump has wantonly killed thousands and each of them touched hundreds of other people or more. He'll die someday and, if there's a Hell, he'll burn in it.
"U.S. tariffs, waning demand for electric vehicles and economic uncertainty have forced Honda Motor Co. Ltd. to scrap development of three electric vehicle models slated for production in Ohio."
So much winning, Mr. Trump! www.dispatch.com/story/busine...
It says a hell of a lot that first the Vice President and now top military brass are planting stories in the press in an effort to absolve themselves of responsibility for the calamity that is the Iran War two weeks into the damn mission. www.wsj.com/politics/nat...
What Hegseth wants to do is go on cosplaying the Crusader represented by his tattoos, without people questioning his right to blow up the middle east just to prove his Christian nationalist credentials.
To summarize, Trump has offered asylum to Iran’s women’s soccer team and death to its men’s.
Honestly hard to know which second of the 30 or so after he returns that I would pick as “the absolute weirdest second I’ve seen of a Trump official (aside from Trump) on camera,” but at least five of these seconds are in the top 10.
Scott Bessent got called away to the Situation Room mid-interview.
When he got back, he was asked what was happening. Bessent said Trump was in "great spirits."
He then randomly volunteered that he had a teen "considering military service" and would trust his child's life with Trump and Hegseth.
Page 3 of the judge's opinion: "Although IBP’s website did not mention DEI, it contained references to 'diversity' amongst bird species."
(That wasn't the main reason why the government lost, but it's evidence that we're governed by idiots.)

The White House could certainly claim this. But Congress explicitly stated in the war powers resolution that appropriations do not equal authorization to use force and should not be interpreted as such.
This is the f’ing way. Every one of the those wrongly detained should be suing the federal government, as well as individual members of the administration by name. It’s one of the only major avenues of recourse that might affect change in the admin’s behavior.
Americans are dying so that Kushner can make money
The corruption of the Trump Administration remains so massive while also being so obvious that people just don’t know what to do. If Kushner was merely shaking someone down for $5,000 using his govt role, there’d be an outcry. But do it for $5,000,000,000 and mostly there’s 🤷♂️

Text reads chem test today, I’m prepared to cheat on the whole thing. They’re already in the classroom and it seems too late to stop them from cheating.
They’ve decided to cheat with ChatGPT, saying: “Hello chat, I’m going to upload four pictures and a couple of minutes (they probably meant in.. omg 😭) I need you to give me the answers for every problem, do not explain how to get the answer, just show me the answer and the slight work for it if it needs it. If it’s an ABCD question, immediately give me the answer.” ChatGPT replies: “Got it” and gives them the instructions back in full and tells them to go ahead and upload the images.
They got their test back, their result is an F, who could’ve seen that coming right?
This text to ChatGPT reads: Chat let me know how I got an F. ChatGPT: You probably got an F, because many of the answers I gave you earlier were wrong. It then proceeds to show them the correct answers from the test.
A story in four parts. 😭
"If they'd done nothing at all, they'd be coasting comfortably."
That's true of Trump's original inheritance, the money from his parents. If he'd just put it in the stock market he'd have made more money than he did on his own ideas.
Every now and then, it's worth reminding yourself that every single crisis of Trump 2.0 -- the economic downturn, the chaos in our cities, the rising health crisis, the foreign wars -- has been a direct result of their own actions.
If they'd done nothing at all, they'd be coasting comfortably.
There is no bigger baby than Pete Hegseth.
It's incel technofascism all the way down.
