It is astounding to me that the @nytimes.com , which has had to run nearly identical corrections multiple times regarding how it misrepresented Section 230... has run yet another oped that misrepresents Section 230. This is embarrassing.

The crime is not just the killing of people who surrender. The crime is telling the enemy that if they surrender, they will be killed. Because when the enemy hears that they cannot surrender peaceably, the war changes from a strategic conflict to a blood-soaked deathmatch.
From now on I want to see all news headlines identify men of a certain age as grandpas.

How do reframe our conversations about Trump that maybe don't imagine him as an ascendant Adolf but rather as a riff on more recent leaders (or strongmen) of Korea, Thailand, or Nepal? How would this alter our activism? What dissident models could we adopt?
Hello! Even if you have not yet voted, you may not be thinking a lot about the Board of Review. But they are one of the most important bodies for determining how property tax burden is distributed!
We did what seems to be the only survey for Board of Review candidates and published it here:
"The worse an officer’s academic record, the more likely he was to join the secret police. Once inside, the worst performers were assigned to the most brutal departments, where the work was most repugnant and the career reward for doing it most valuable." donmoynihan.substack.com/p/the-secret...

one fun thing which Doug Wilson believes is that it is Biblically mandatory -- not optional, but mandatory -- for a Christian society to permit slavery.
Per an announcement for the event, Peter Thiel’s lectures in Rome “were ‘jointly organized’ by…the Vincenzo Gioberti Cultural Association, and the Cluny Institute at the Catholic University of America [CUA].” CUA (which is closely tied to Leonard Leo) has since distanced itself from the event. 1/
///BREAKING/// Federal prosecutors in Chicago have moved to drop charges against two of the "Broadview Six" protesters -- Catherine Sharp and Joselyn Walsh -- accused of conspiring to damage an ICE agent's vehicle last fall.
Drone strikes in Haiti.
Drone strikes. In Haiti.
By private contractors.
They’re killing Haitians for private profit & the world barely pays attention.
The story of Haiti is the story America likes to tell about itself. Except there, it’s true. And the west has never stopped punishing Haiti for it
How comfortable would you feel walking through a field if someone told you "We took out most of the mines"
This is spreading all over Bluesky today and is wildly misleading--it is from eight months ago and it is in reference to working with NATO allies and arming Ukraine.
Is this a new type of anti-racism that I am unfamiliar with?
Are you showing up for racial justice at all here?
The problem is, everyone I’ve spoken to in MAGAworld content creation — comms staff, influencers, whomever — knows their identity. In off-the-record conversations, people will simply tell me their name as soon as I ask the question, as they’re familiar with the memelord’s style from interactions in the disappearing MAGA group chats. (I do have to pause for a second and acknowledge that the meme zoomers have better opsec than the senior officials who did Signalgate a year ago.) But the moment I ask if they’d be willing to go on background about it — surely they aren’t Nazis, and shouldn’t they call out behavior in their own ranks? — sources immediately clam up. If I prod, they’ll shrug it off as everyone’s just having fun.
So @tinanguyen.bsky.social has spent weeks trying to identify the person at DHS who posts all the racist memes, and instead uncovered a fascinating code of silence: everyone in Trump's Washington knows who it is, but refuses to say. Gift link! -> www.theverge.com/column/89298...
No they didn't and no they're not.
A foreign hacker likely has the Epstein Files.
The best way to prevent blackmail of government officials, such as trump and Howard Lutnick, would be for AG Pam Bondi to stop the cover up and release all the Epstein Files as required by law.

There was a reason that seven Presidents refused to go to war with Iran.
In the end, it took a corrupt, compromised felon, beholden and blackmailed by Israel, to bring about this entirely predictable global economic catastrophe.
I would love for a reporter with access to these senators to ask them why.
This happens all the time, and I will never understand it.
This very straight news piece buried deep within the FT never uses words like corruption or insider dealing but every detail is quietly devastating. Why is the FT virtually alone in the UK media in covering this important story?
Long-time buddies Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols were out for a pleasant van drive in Oklahoma when, all of a sudden, their lives would change.

“‘The constituencies that support Modi are basically the constituencies that Krishnamoorthi is trying to sort of cultivate,’ said Rohit Chopra, a communication professor at Santa Clara University whose research focuses on the Hindu nationalist movement and far-right online communities.”
