Obviously they're just partisan hacks trying to run out the clock for their guy, but we should pretend they're serious and have their offices toddler-proofed as if they're *actually* this stupid.

"Sorry, Justice Alito, we had to cover all the outlets and take away your stapler. ... You know why."

Sadly, too many Americans love this strongman.

The casual Arabophobia and Islamophobia by our media is truly something to behold.

Back in 2018, MAGA street fighters in Portland started showing up at events wearing “Pinochet did nothing wrong” t-shirts with positive references to helicopter rides and I thought “wow, they’re really out there.” Now sitting members of Congress are going there.

Tenured faculty are losing their jobs for financial reasons. Academic freedom protections are being gutted.

The adjuncts and contingent faculty members *literally told you this would happen* and you didn't listen, didn't believe it could happen to you, because you were special, we weren't.

It’s Black history month in the US.

You don’t have to share white supremacist’s posts from Twitter here and you don’t have to repost them.

Trump was right about one thing. The NY Times is a failure. A joke.

N.S.A. Buys Americans’ Internet Data Without Warrants, Letter Says The disclosure comes amid congressional scrutiny and a Federal Trade Commission crackdown on commercial data brokers.

The thing about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce is that last week the NSA confirmed to me that the agency is buying up Americans' internet browsing data from shady data brokers without a warrant.

This should scare you.

Only in a silo is it not true/wrong. The rest of the world sees it and it isn't aesthetic.

I'd argue it is the I/P issue more than anything, hence why Iran exploits it.

As would settling the Israeli-Palestinian issue, which drives so much of this and was treated by both Trump and Biden as something you could ignore via the Abraham Accords scam.

BlueSky isn't exactly full of MAGA posters, but the Trump rebrand as "historic peacemaker" has always skipped over the minor detail that he blew up the Iran deal.

Re-defining "peace in the Middle East" as getting Bahrain to trade with Israel... idk man Iran seems more important

Arab Citizens Are Livid Over Gaza. The US Ignores Them at Its Peril. Ordinary people across the Middle East are being crystal clear about the depth of their opposition to the White House’s Israel policy—and that of their own governments.

“The American government has paid scant attention to the anger of ordinary Arab citizens since October 7.”

@danaelkurd.bsky.social on how, by failing to acknowledge the emotional reverberations of the war on Gaza across the Arab world, the US is playing with fire.

Israel has killed a few including Rachel Corrie, Shireen Abu Akleh, and Tawfiq Ajaq. What is the administration's policy for that?

Problem is Dems interpret voting for them as a reward and don't reflect on what's wrong hence why they're dismissing real grievances from progressives, Gen Z, et al as they did in 2016. It took losing for them to slightly figure it out in 2018 and 2020.

Israel’s Controlled Demolitions Are Razing Neighborhoods in Gaza In addition to its aerial bombardment, Israeli ground forces have carried out a wave of large-scale detonations, destroying residential homes, schools and mosques across the strip.

It’s already too late, but why don’t we just call the controlled demolition of civilian homes, schools, mosques, and universities what they are: war crimes. Just admit that IHL is in tatters and the US is complicit. The charade is beyond offensive. It is criminal, and it will never be forgotten.

No one could possibly have predicted that the solution to the teacher shortage - like all the other wOrKeR sHoRtAgEs - is to…raise wages

They dunno much about the IC if they think it is even remotely leftist.

So, um, the wealthiest person in the world is using his platform tonight to spout grotesque theories about immigrants and Democrats and criminals and voter fraud.

Liberal Zionism in America is in *deep* denial about what Zionism is.

This is not a new insight, but it has been exponentially amplified in light of the Gaza war.

I had the pleasure of serving on David's dissertation committee. It's a terrific project that debunks the old conventional wisdom that "responsible" conservatism rejected the far-right fringe in the 1960s.

A must-read on modern conservatism, especially with the far right resurgent now.

a moment of radical honesty on Fox Business

Dunno how you can sincerely say he was right about anything concerning NATO, aside from the burden sharing issue which isn't a new problem and his approach was never going to fix it.

No, no, no, it's a Superb Owl.

Here's one:
