The following is REAL footage from Portland, 2025. Viewer discretion is advised.

So much of the Right-wing alt-media infrastructure is funded by the Ivermectin-pushers and the supplement industry. Saying diseases are harmless doesn't pay, so they always end up pivoting to "actually it's really bad but conventional medicine makes it worse so buy my bullshit cute"

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.

Even if you take the most lenient possible interpretation -- that SCOTUS has made it increasingly hard to prosecute bribery and corruption -- you still have to ask what kind of crooked-ass administration hires a guy who just took $50k cash.

No, I don’t think so

There will never be another mayor in our lifetimes as, uh, entertaining as this guy.

It was the late 1980s and the American plan to combat hepatitis B wasn’t working. A vaccine had been available since 1982 and recommended for those deemed to be at highest risk, such as health care workers and men who have sex with men. But the infection rates had gone up, not down. When epidemiologists at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention dug into the data, they noticed one figure that had stayed alarmingly stable: Between 30% and 40% of hepatitis B patients had no identifiable risk factors at all. When they published their paper in 1990, it was subtitled, “Need for Alternative Vaccination Strategies.” The next year, the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices — the CDC body that sets such guidelines — recommended vaccinating all infants. Over the next two decades, case numbers plummeted by 99% among children and teens.

Hey, turns out we recommend the Hep B birth dose for a reason.

What’s the common factor? Wait, I’m trying to think. Do I hear banjos? 🤔

one of the clearest signs you're dealing with a strong and principled political movement is when they want to make it illegal to make fun of them

Honestly, relying on copy paste errors to detect scientific fraud was never a foolproof strategy

David Sacks quote tweeting Paul Graham @DavidSacks X.com Only a despicable Silicon Valley leftist would seek to downplay the meaning and significance of Charlie's death as millions of people around the world understand it and experience it on a deep and visceral level. • Paul Graham @ @paulg•22h When a political figure is killed, his supporters want to believe he was killed by some powerful, organized "them." They want his death to be meaningful, and it's more meaningful to be killed by a powerful political force than a random nut, as m...

I really can’t tell anymore if they believe the things that they are saying or this is all just a weird performancebut anyway here’s david sacks calling paul graham a leftist

Maga is fundamentally a populist white racism. The slogan "Make America Great Again" is more accurately described as "Make White America Greater." The fact that the tariff policy insisted on a 50% tariff only on steel and aluminum stems from the concentration of these groups in the Rust Belt.

The massive crackdown on illegal immigrants at the Hyundai-LG Energy Solutions joint venture plant in Georgia must be understood in this context. The scenes of our workers being chained and escorted away were reminiscent of the dragging of African slaves in the 18th and 19th centuries. The Department of Homeland Security boasted of "the largest single-site raid in history," and Immigration and Customs Enforcement even brazenly released footage of the raid, which was highly violating human rights, as if to boast of their "achievement."

Far-right whites may have secretly rejoiced. Even politicians like the Georgia governor and local lawmakers, who had been active in attracting factories, have shifted their stance and sympathized with their grievances. This is likely because it's difficult to ignore the anti-immigrant sentiment of native Americans. Like the McCarthyism that swept through American society in the 1950s, irrational madness dominates American society. The recent visa issue, which could have been resolved diplomatically with advance notice from an ally, is difficult to explain beyond political maneuvering. The fact that they mobilized helicopters and armored vehicles for show, as if they had been caught, is difficult to explain.

idk if you've seen this south korean editorial that ran a few days ago. google translate version scorched my eyebrows www.hani.co.kr/arti/opinion...

Screenshot of article excerpt: The Education Department also was concerned about other words in the application, said Adrian Klenz, who works with deafblind adults in the state. He said he has talked with state officials about the discontinuation of the grant. “I was told that apparently the administration is going through past grants and two words were flagged: One was transition and one was privilege,” Klenz said. “Transition — transitioning from childhood to adulthood. Privilege came up because a parent wrote a glowing review of staff that said what a privilege it was to work with them.” ProPublica obtained a copy of the grant application and confirmed that those words were included.

The Dept. of Education has pulled funding for programs in 8 states that support students with both hearing and vision loss.

A staffer at one program says he was told the Trump admin. took issue with 2 words on the grant application: “transition" and “privilege": www.propublica.org/article/trum...

This man is not well. He has become obsessed with “saving” every country through right wing politics. He’s trying to create as many offspring as possible to spread his superior genome. He wants to upload his brain into a computer that lives on Mars

Charlie Kirk: Joe Biden should be "put in prison and/or given the death penalty for crimes against America"

I hadn’t seen this. Kirk, the moderate free speech guy who did politics the right way per some liberals (!), called for Biden to be executed.

Meanwhile Joe Biden put out a very strong statement condemning Kirk’s killing.

Both sides!

After Charlie Kirk's death, teachers and professors nationwide fired or disciplined over social media posts At least a dozen faculty and staff have faced fallout over insensitive comments online.

I am having a hard time reconciling "Charlie Kirk was a fierce advocate of open dialogue and free expression" with "we must identify and persecute everyone who is insufficiently mournful"

But don’t call them Nazis.

Anyone wanting actually-gets-this-shit type analysis of the internet-side of this situation, I recommend this and his new podcast episode ...

Kash Patel questions grow as he gutted Utah FBI before Kirk shooting Kash Patel fired the 'legendary' FBI special agent in charge in Salt Lake City, Mehtab Syed, just a month before she would have led the ongoing manhunt for Charlie Kirk's assassin.

Deeply cruel and enormously wasteful. About 1.5 million women & couples could have used these supplies to avoid unintended pregnancy.

Instead, at taxpayer expense, the Trump administration incinerated nearly $10M worth of contraceptive supplies, despite offers from multiple orgs to distribute.

you gotta be there with a drink and the jazz band playing, dear

It really is so striking how much The Discourse operates untethered from…what we actually know. The killer is still at large! We have no idea who did it! Seems pretty important to get that sorted.

Florida Reporter Suspended After Texting MAGA Congressman to Ask If He Still Supports Campus Carry After Kirk Shooting A reporter with a popular Florida political website was suspended after angering a Republican congressman with a question he texted in the wake of Charlie Kirk being shot.

You’re just not allowed to do journalism if it displeases MAGA

Plenty to go around

Have I been living in a cave under the ocean or something I have never heard of Charlie Kirk but it seems like everyone else has

This is a friend of mine and the median normie voter and exactly why it's so weird people are flying flags at half mast and op-eds are being written.
