The Hungover Pundit

I mean, obviously.

The correct thing to do when DHS or ICE or any of these thugs makes a claim like this one -- the only thing to do, really -- is presume they are lying.

Because they always are.

They are state-sponsored Klan members, and should be treated accordingly.

Supreme Court to decide if states may ban attempts to ‘convert’ gay and transgender youth | CNN Politics Matt Salmon remembers getting into a circle with the other teenagers in his group therapy session and shouting obscenities at a gay boy forced to stand in the middle.

The Supreme Court is poised to overturn 32 state bans on conversion therapy and explicitly legalize the abusive and torturous process.

They don't care how many LGBTQ people this traumatizes and kills.

This feels like evidence Trump's aides are deliberately gaslighting him, which is unfortunately very easy to do with dementia sufferers (Trump did it to his father) and which aides are using to seize control of the US military for their own purposes.

This is an old formula used by authoritarian regimes. Stoke chaos and blame scapegoats to justify the use of force.

Himmler liked to recruit a certain type of person into the SS: losers. He looked for men who had achieved little on their own merits, but felt they'd been cheated in some way. Give such mediocrities power and a legal way to enact cruelty and they'll do anything for you. ICE is full of these people.

Canada issues warning for citizens with gender-neutral passports travelling to U.S. | CBC News The Canadian government is warning citizens who list "X" as their gender on their passports could have problems entering the U.S.

Canada issues warning for citizens with gender-neutral passports travelling to U.S.

I doubt he does, or if he does his contempt and distain for veterans is well recorded.

Trump is Lying About Antifascism As an antifascist organization ourselves, we can help explain antifascism and why the far-right in the United States and Canada see us as an obstacle that has to be cleared in order to carry out their...

Last week, Trump declared “Antifa” a domestic terrorist organization.

This is why the far-right in the US & Canada see it as an obstacle that has to be cleared in order to carry out their smash-and-grab of the political establishment. 👇

MAGA can't expand its base — and Christian music tells us why The songs from Charlie Kirk's memorial exposed a serious problem

That's part of why I wrote this. It's important to understand that MAGA is not "real" America.

On the contrary, the reason they're all so fucking bitter is they know most people aren't like them. And they resent that.

Hunter S Thompson’s death to be reviewed more than 20 years later The journalist and author’s wife requested ‘fresh look’ from Colorado FBI, after his death was ruled a suicide in 2005

Oof. I can't believe it's been twenty years.

Knowing the details, though, I'm not sure why a review is needed: sadly it was pretty clearly a suicide.

The people at this ostrich farm are the same gang that opposed M-103, co-opted yellow vests, push UN / WEF conspiracies, opposed lockdowns, face masks and vaccines, occupied Ottawa, harassed people at drag story time events etc

It’s all the same far-right influencers and content creators every time

History was full of the bones of good men who’d followed bad orders in the hope that they could soften the blow. Oh, yes, there were worse things they could do, but most of them began right where they started following bad orders. - Terry Pratchett, Jingo

This keeps coming to mind today, for some reason...

It's just one big send-us-money grift machine.

Why isn’t the media reporting on Trump’s growing dementia? Trump’s increasingly bizarre behavior can no longer be attributed to a calculated “strategy.”

so I wake up to find that Hegseth summoned the entire brass to tell them we now protect and revere rapists and war criminals in the US military, followed by Trump holding a mini campaign rally and whining about lack of applause, and this is somehow basically the best case scenario

The Shameful Christian Idolatry and Fraudulent Martyrdom of Charlie Kirk As news of his shooting broke, the Jesus-washing of Charlie Kirk’s life by Conservative Christians began almost immediately.

The invented martyrdom of Charlie Kirk is one of the greatest collective acts of blasphemy in the history of Christianity in America.

Ottawa-based artist retraces family's traditional 200-km migration route through Nunavut | CBC News Over the course of the 23-day journey, Gayle Uyagaqi Kabloona learned a lot about her family’s history. She also found the spot where her father was born on the land 76 years ago.

Opening the news is pretty fraught these days, but every once in a while something comes up that makes me feel good.

What a wonderful connection to the past and the land, and so great for her to experience it.

I hope I get a chance to see the videographer's art project once it's done.

So Jesse Lee Peterson re-uploaded my appearance on his podcast from just after Charlottesville. Some his fans are concerned with the GFM trying to shut it down, so I am going to remind people that you can also donate to One People's Project at onepeoplesproject.com/donate. We got this!

Any sufficiently advanced incompetence is indistinguishable from malice. 🤷

Every single one of these clips was taken today in downtown Portland. Portland doesn’t want or need a federal takeover. If Trump insists on sending federal “resources” he can start with funding health care, bridges, affordable housing, and wildfire protection to name a few.

Owners of home in Ontario where Nazi symbol was mowed into the lawn face hate, harassment charges | CBC News The owners of a home where a swastika was mowed into the front lawn earlier this month now face charges of criminal harassment and inciting hate, Ontario Provincial Police say.

Sigh.

At least it wasn't Hamilton this time.

Opinion | Trump‘s new anti-antifa panic is the start of something much more dangerous The president signed an executive order Monday declaring antifa a “domestic terrorist organization.”

New: For @msnbc.com I wrote abt Trump’s absurd EO declaring antifa a “domestic terror org”

I trace history of MAGA manufacturing antifa bogeyman to both distract from v real far right violence, & to create a pretext for vigilantes & police to target the wider left www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

What is ‘antifa’ and why has Trump branded it a ‘terrorist organization’? There is no such formal entity called antifa, yet the US president has designated it an ‘anarchist enterprise’, raising concerns from civil liberties experts

I broke down Trump's executive order on "antifa"—which he describes as a “SICK, DANGEROUS RADICAL LEFT DISASTER"—for @theguardian.com

Hamilton Ontario, staying classy as ever.

Also, "Police describe the suspect as white with a medium build and facial hair." That's a pretty broad profile there, Holmes.

Well, I'm confident that in the fullness of time he'll go on another round of drunken benders and fuck his life back into prison.
