Trump lies all the time. He lied during the 2024 election and if you’re inclined to believe him you might have convinced yourself that he wasn’t a fascist.

But Trump’s actions, not words, make it much much clearer to those who voted for him what he is.

And 44% still want that.

That I can’t believe that 44% of Americans don’t want to live in a democracy anymore.

This comment is funny. You say one of the great things was the mystery, then you ask to take away the mystery.

This doesn’t always work out that well, see midichlorians or all the Dune Prequels. They explain everything and it’s awful.

I'm not sure I understand your concern. You have a single switch network? What speed is the switch you're replacing? Why are you replacing it?

We’re not afforded a lot of great news these days so I’ll take it with great joy.

Trump vows to declassify Amelia Earhart files The president said he would ask his administration to release all documents related to the pilot’s 1937 disappearance.

I guess Trump's working his way through the declassifications alphabetically. Epstein should be coming up real soon now.

I hate so-called fans who can’t tell the difference between a Klingon Bird of Prey and a Romulan Bird of Prey.

Wired is doing incredible work reporting on the Trump regime. I became a subscriber for the first time this year and I've been in tech my entire life.

Their excellent work, along with the Atlantic, stands in stark contrast to the failures of once-great media like the NY Times and Washington Post.

The Washington Post is not a serious paper anymore.

Tennessee Holler gets it right again. How the mighty Times has fallen.

It three cheers for one of the few news outlets still doing journalism.

100% agree. I cannot believe what a great job Wired is doing. I'm a first-time subscriber and I've been in the tech industry my whole long life.

Wired's excellence also provides a sharp contrast to how almost all the other traditional outlets are doing.

New York Times, Washington Post, etc.

I love Return of the Kind (Extended Version) but there's no denying that it's 47 hours long. For some reason, this story seems especially relevant these days. Here at the end of all things.

I am pleased to host a like-minded dictator, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan of Turkey at the Whites-Only House . We are pretending to discuss Trade and Military Deals that we both know are never going to happen, including the purchase of F-16s and F-35 "talks" because no one trusts US anymore.

ABC Pulls Jimmy Kimmel Off Air for Charlie Kirk Comments After F.C.C. Pressure

Never EVER thought I'd think of Jimmy Kimmel as a symbol of democracy.

But here we are.

Well, credit where credit is do, New York Governor Kathy Hochul seems to have started a critical trend to extend access to COVID-19 in spite of efforts but RFK Jr. and the Trump anti-vaxxers to limit it.

Good job, Governor.

Best cold open for Next Generation. Enterprise blows up, cut to opening credits. I remember thinking: Well where can they go from here. I guess that's the end of the show...with 52 minutes left to go.

One policy I'd have Congress implement, if your employees qualify for SNAP or Medicaid, then you have to pay the government the cost of those programs.

Companies should not use the government to subsidize their workers.
