Rank antisemitism.

The Santos commutation is a prelude to a Ghislaine Maxwell pardon.

Mark my words.

The war zone in Portland is out of control.

Of course they do.

Bloody ignoramus...and Russian asset.

I moderated this conversation with Machado and David Smolansky, the elected mayor of El Hatillo who was forced into exile, last December @snfagora.bsky.social

The ‘Anthropological Change’ Happening in Venezuela Maduro is still in place, but a pro-democracy movement is transforming the beleaguered country.

Congratulations to Maria Corina Machado, recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize - her incredible optimism has already changed her country. I spoke to her, and wrote about her, at the beginning of this year:

“I went around the country saying, ‘I have nothing to offer but work. I have nothing to offer you but [the possibility] that we’re going to get together, and we’re going to put this country back on our feet. So we’re going to do this right.’ And people cried and prayed.” - Machado

Why María Machado Deserved the Nobel Peace Prize The Venezuelan opposition leader shows why participation matters.

Nobel Peace Prizes have often been awarded to people who fight autocracy. Maria Corina Machado fits right into that tradition

‘Who was president in 2020?’ Trump and GOP want you to think it was Biden | CNN Politics If you asked people what the worst one-year period in recent American history was, it’s a good bet that many would choose roughly between January 2020 and January 2021.

Who was president in 2020? There appears to be a concerted effort to get you to forget

A ceasefire is not a peace deal, nor is peace the absence of war.

Think the website says “Made in the USA”? Think again.

Many people and institutions that fight back are winning.

This is a large part of the reason to scorn the people and institutions that have caved. When this is over their lives should be made miserable. More, I mean.

If only we could figure out why this is happening

Trumpism is fascist, sure. But we're not yet under fascism. I think that's a fair summation. Let's make sure it doesn't get worse.

Just FYI: Portland as a war zone is horseshit, and deploying federal troops is horseshit.

Megyn Kelly, who recently took over the title of Most Racist Podcaster in America has just decided she doesn’t care if anyone in Trump’s criminal MAGA World, like Tom Homan, commits felonies.
And let’s #ReleaseAllTheEpsteinFiles including #PedoPresidentTrump.

I’m worried it can still get stupider

Meanwhile, Trump's fellow autocrat continues to dismantle Turkish democracy.

There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. It’s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Let’s get a grip on what’s happening here.

that fox news host still has his job.

How long until we start hearing about how people who make remarks inconvenient to the regime are falling out of windows?
