This machine kills fascists.

Hey, what a vile thing to think.

It’s amazing to think that American conservatism, which claimed to have an intellectual heritage going back to Burke, Hamilton, Hayek and Buckley, would now be a movement whose sole ideology is whatever crazy policy Trump pulls out of his ass.

So we don’t tax them but that’s ok because they employ people and give to charity, except they’re locked in on ways to avoid employing people and they don’t give to charity.

Trump nominated a legit white nationalist to a top post at the State Department. I asked him some basic questions about his belief in the “erasure of white culture”. Watch this embarrassing, fumbling answer. Like he has never before been asked to explain his views.

This is pure nonsense. The anthropomorphizing of AI as a single sovereign entity hides the power structures that control these platforms. It’s like the Trix rabbit having a personal philosopher.

A very real dilemma: you really can’t a lot of stuff this administration puts out BUT reducing trust in government in general is very bad for progressive causes and ultimately great for the populist right

A culture that over-rewards abstract intelligence will produce elites who cannot feel when they’ve crossed a human threshold.

It’s dualism. It’s always dualism.

That’s lovely. Really nice piece.

Worth noting that this response actually concedes that what Pritzker said is true.

Jeff Bezos’s wealth has increased an average of $70 million every day of 2026, meaning that he could have offset The Post’s losses with what he’s made since Monday.

If you're looking for a book on longevity that is A) cheap, B) not full of crap, and C) not written by a guy in the Epstein Files, I wrote one

one of my strongest beliefs is that we're in our situation right now bc some of the most prominent talking heads (e.g. joe rogan, andrew schulz) are learning about politics in their 40s and 50s, instead of their teens and early 20s, and we have to go along for the ride as they learn basic things

I think it's best for everyone to understand that the unified class project of billionaires right now is to do to white collar workers what globalization and neoliberalism did to blue collar workers.

Judge Biery signed the order with a photo of Liam and two bible verses: The first is "But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven." The second is simply "Jesus wept."

Astonishing thing for a judge to do.

Watch the video as a recklessly driven cheap car careens around and a gang of armed thugs spring out to menace an innocent civilian, like a kidnapping or robbery or murder-for-hire.

It looks like organized crime taking place in a third-world country, because it is.

I mean, if you're that good at behavioral psychology, why do you need a convicted pedophile to help you talk to a redhead you find attractive?

The thing that shocks me most is that all of this incriminating stuff was sitting at the DOJ for 4 years and Biden & Garland were not cynical or ruthless enough to use it against Trump & Musk in the run up to 2024.

If only they were the evil ‘weaponizers of government’ that MAGA claimed they were!

The fact they even granted cert instead of immediately issuing a ruling striking down the EO shows how illegitimate this court has become.

Another solid recommendation. Thx!

"They were obviously not trained at all. I've known many police officers in my life. These people were right off the streets."

"They had the professional demeanor of criminals."

The Holocaust—with every story and event in it—is only useful to us—by us, i mean the entire pop of planet earth—if it is used as a honking and flashing warning post.

Otherwise, we are sacralizing the Holocaust to a point that it becomes an inert & sad, but ultimately useless historical event.

Turns out we don't need to pay attention to the shape of someone's head to determine their intellect; we can just look at what they say.

If Stephen Miller is still in the White House, that means the white nationalist gameplan is still all systems GO.

What we're witnessing is just window dressing and distractions.

Tom Homan is just as bad as Bovino, but less openly Nazi.

Keep your eyes wide open.

From "Napoleon's Maxims of War."

"ICE will leave Minnesota if you hand over your voter rolls" tells you everything you need to know.

This was never about immigration or fraud. It was always about rigging elections.

This insane blame deflection has precedents.

3 days after a 1963 bombing of Birmingham's 16th Street Baptist Church killed 4 young girls, Bull Connor said, "If you're going to blame anyone for getting those children killed in Birmingham, it's your Supreme Court," which had ordered desegregation.

Statement from Michael and Susan Pretti Parents of Alex Jeffrey Pretti “We are heartbroken but also very angry. Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately, he will not be with us to see his impact. I do not throw around the ‘hero’ term lightly. However, his last thought and act was to protect a woman. The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump’s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He had his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down, all while being pepper sprayed. Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you.
