Press gave Biden far worse coverage for a small number of American soldiers dying while leaving a war than to Trump for a similar number dying while starting a war for no reason. It makes you think!

I am in shock and my heart is racing after watching this video. This cannot -- and should not -- be real, yet it is. (WARNING this video is very disturbing)

"I guess I have a very different view of the dangers and real-world consequences of your position than what you explored with Justice Kavanaugh. My understanding was that independent agencies exist because Congress has decided that some issues, some matters, some areas should be handled in this way by nonpartisan expertsβ€”that Congress is saying that expertise matters with respect to aspects of the economy and transportation and the various independent agencies that we have. 

"So having a president come in and fire all the scientists and the doctors and the economists and the PhDs and replacing them with loyalists and people who don't know anything is actually not in the best interest of the citizens of the United States."

As I said the other day: civil society groups, Democratic congressional aides, service unions, and everyone else should be war-gaming out their responses to what Trump might do in 2026 β€” and preparing for massive non-violent civil disobedience.

I hope everybody is noticing that public and private universities all over the country are dismantling religious studies programs as white christian nationalists are ascendant in all levels of our government

Jeez, i was just thinking about a summer reading list, Moxon, and went to search the Mantel book (the titles did seem a bit off, if not funny)...(and then I lolled)
Would you do a real summer reading list...my brain is fried from a wicked quarter...so I can stop doomscrolling.

That Crypto is a parasitic entity dependent on a functioning global finance system rather than a revolutionary framework for replacing it is going to occur to a lot of people after it is too late to bail out
