the one who loved horses, the one who was a great goalkeeper, the one who kept a diary every day, the one who held her sister's hand when they walked to school, the one who read Harry Potter in English, the one who collected old coins, the one who drew rainbows for her grandmother ...

It rules that the biggest name in conspiracy mongering about propaganda and shadowy elites is the son of the former head of Voice of America, tried to join the CIA, and is on the record in multiple legal cases admitting that his viewers shouldn't trust him.

The heterodox civility cops won't bat an eye about something like this coming from a U.S. Congressman but they're still mad about something Joy Reid said in 2022

The irony that Bush's failed war of choice built on lies led to the backlash that allowed Trump to take over the GOP and the country has brought us to another war of choice built on lies but even more reckless and without even an attempt to justify the lies.

Oh, but I've already been reassured that blowback is not a real thing by TOP MINDS.

When we talk about Baby Boomers not getting off the stage: In 1997, the US president was born in 1946.

In 2007, the US president was born in 1946.

In 2017, the US president was born in 1946.

And next year in 2027? The US president will have been born in 1946.

Greg Dolezal, a Georgia state senator and conservative Republican who's running to be lieutenant governor, released this bizarre Islamophobic "anti-sharia" ad that, somewhat confusingly, features an AI generated driver that looks exactly like Claire Danes.

What Elon Has Done Elon Musk's destruction of USAID has faded from public consciousness in America, despite leaving death and destruction in its wake.

"The next administration should also prosecute all those involved in the dismantling of USAID. On top of being a humanitarian catastrophe, it was illegal under American law as a unilateral shutdown of a Congressionally enshrined agency."

For years on my old blog I published the names of servicemembers who died in Iraq & Afghanistan. No other outlets were.

These are the first 4 Americans to die in the Iran War.
Capt. Cody A. Khork, 35
Sgt. 1st Class Noah L. Tietjens, 42
Sgt. 1st Class Nicole M. Amor, 39
Sgt. Declan J. Coady, 20

MAGA's gonna make a folk hero out of Hillary Clinton, who in these videos looks like an exceedingly patient and reasonable person who's putting up with bullshit from insipid, dishonest morons rather than make a spectacle of herself.

Well, yes, I suppose asking the Secretary of Defense questions about the war we're fighting that he clearly doesn't have the answers to because he's not involved in the decision-making would be a "gotcha-type question."
