“I didn’t vote for THIS,” say the manosphere podcasters who simply had no way of knowing that Trump would lie about being a populist to get into office and then govern like a autocratic lunatic once in power, other than the fact that he did it for 4 entire years before that.
Call me a fool
We are living in a time of absolute, utter madness...and too many people are unwilling to acknowledge it. My latest.

There's something deeply obscene and broken about the fact that Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are bombing elementary schools in an illegal war of aggression, and there's still a sense among the opposition that it has to be explained in terms of gas prices in order to get American voters to care.
Iran’s people were facing a horrible shortage of water before the war began. If we are destroying desalination plants and setting fire to Teheran we are committing unfathomable crimes.

FT comments section this morning - saying what everyone else is thinking, right?
I can answer this one. The president of the United States is dangerously psychotic and no one in his political party will say it, nor will 95% of American media.
Think of how bad things must be for a Supreme Court Justice to feel he has to explain why it's a good idea to have laws enacted by legislators instead of decreed by wannabe dictators
This country is doomed.
The only question left by the Supreme Court decision on tariffs is:
What the fuck is wrong with Thomas, Alito, and Kavenaugh?
The Constitution could not say more clearly that only Congress has the power to impose taxes.
Can't those three justices umderstand a simple, direct English sentence?
notorious radical left communist rag says tax the rich
Love this 🤩
Imagine doing this with your one precious life. Other people are out there teaching children and curing cancer and you decide to spend your time telling outrageous, laughably unbelievable lies about a dementia-addled rapist and fraud whose legacy will be nearly ending US democracy
Stephen Colbert says he was told by CBS lawyers "in no uncertain terms" that he could not have Texas State Rep. James Talarico on his program.
"Because my network clearly doesn't want us to talk about this, let's talk about this."
Wow.
Saboteurs: Wrecking the US for generations by contributing to the spread of disease.
Trump nominated a legit white nationalist to a top post at the State Department. I asked him some basic questions about his belief in the “erasure of white culture”. Watch this embarrassing, fumbling answer. Like he has never before been asked to explain his views.
Look, I have my problems with The Young Turks— starting with their name, laden as it is with historical baggage— but this is a great clip they captured.
FOR THOSE WHO STILL DO NOT KNOW: The 14th Amendment says that all PERSONS are protected. Not all citizens— all PERSONS. End of discussion.
HHS cancels &500 million in mRNA research, a $600 million contract to develop an mRNA bird flu vaccine, narrowed criteria on who should get the mRNA COVID vaccine, and now refuses to review a completed study of a mRNA flu vaccine. If you were trying to kill a technology, and a company, this is what you would do.

A federal judge in Oregon issued a sweeping rebuke of the Justice Department’s nationwide push to seize state voter rolls, ruling that the department can no longer be presumed to be acting in good faith and warning that its conduct threatens voters and states’ rights.
If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff.
Democracy dies in oligarchy.
Three years ago, a brand-name company detonated a chemical bomb in a town.
It became the world’s biggest political story.
Politicians got famous promising help.
Media monetized clicks.
Lawyers got rich.
Meanwhile, many victims got sick & got no money.
Welcome to America.
The Epstein emails should really end the debate over whether society should have billionaires. "Do you want there to be a class of people so powerful they can fuck your kids and no one will even try to do anything" seems like an easy sell if everyone in politics wasn't trying to get on their payroll
Naming someone is not doxxing. They aren’t undercover. They aren’t intelligence agents overseas. This is outrageous - we are supposed to be a free Republic and these people want an authoritarian police state. Lawsuits should be filed & ranking Dems in Congress should act.
Seems like a bad sign for the general competency level of federal law enforcement that the FBI director spends his time scouring the feeds of random MAGA influencers and launching investigations based on their posts. www.mediamatters.org/benny-johnso...

There is no level to which these heartless shit-for-brains won’t stoop to inflict cruelty and suffering.
Seriously, @people.com has been meeting the moment better than 90% of publications with direct reporting and crystal clear headlines.
This is a good way for the low-information voters who are usually detached from the news cycle to get turned around.
