I would no be surprised that many US citizens were included. This is how Dictators work.

Well, America, we have a transactional, delusional, narcissistic, evil, man child who bows to Putin and Musk 'playing' President. Stand Up and Fight!

Raskin: The chairman began by saying the point here is to restore the rule of law.

Can you even pretend to do that if you support Trump who on day one pardoned 1,500 insurrectionists including hundreds of people who violently assaulted police officersโ€ฆ

@maddow.msnbc.com Lots of respected friend saying their Facebook accounts are automatically following Trump and Vance page without them approving. Some are saying that is hard to follow. Also reports of negative comments on Trump are being deleted. Dark times.

Chief Justice John Roberts defends judicial independence, says it is under threat in several ways Chief Justice John Roberts issued a defense Tuesday of judicial independence, which he said is under threat from intimidation, disinformation and the prospect of public officials defying court orders.

Reap what you so. You brought this on yourselves. Corporations are people, Presidents have immunity. overturning Roe v. Wade after affirming it was settled law. What do you think was going to happen? Criticism of the SCOTUS is not a threat to democracy, the court has become the threat.

Musk Expresses Support for Far-Right Party in Germanyโ€™s Election It was not the first online intervention by Elon Musk, the entrepreneur and adviser to Donald Trump, on behalf of once-fringe anti-immigrant parties in Europe.

"Elon Musk, the worldโ€™s richest man and a close adviser to President-elect Donald J. Trump, on Friday endorsed Germanyโ€™s far-right party, a group with ties to neo-Nazis whose youth wing has been classified as โ€œconfirmed extremistโ€ by German domestic intelligence."

Voting with my pocketbook. Good buy Tesla M3. I just do not want to be reminded every time I drive who owns the company that built it

Opinion | Trump suddenly discovers that America is already great The president-elect is also discovering that the country is already great.

Obviously predictable. Elections are rigged unless I win. American is terrible, unless I made it great. Such narcissism.

All courts are political by nature, its just the degree we are talking about. First Amendment clearly states: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof". . So how did "In God We Trust" get on our currency?

Trump team says Israel-Hezbollah ceasefire deal brokered by Biden is actually Trump's win The Biden administration kept President-elect Donald Trumpโ€™s administration closely apprised of its efforts to broker the ceasefire deal between Israel and Hezbollah that took effect early Wednesday.

Trump's team could not negotiate themselves out of a paper bag. Taking credit for the cease-fire is the only way they can say 'we win'. Last 'win' it will be.

Trump Refuses to Disclose Who Is Funding His Transition Donald Trump is the first president-elect not to sign an ethics agreement that sets fundraising limits and transparency.

You vote a criminal into office you get criminal conduct. What did anyone expect? This is just the beginning.

Great Campaign. You did better than any man could have done and did it backwards on heels. Country is messed up and you are not the problem. We will fight and never give up.

As we remove people from the production of news, the editors, writers, critical thinkers and fact checkers, the news will become less trustworthy and dumber. Or, more clever if you are a cynic. With AI, news stories will become manufactured to mold us in ways not even Orwellโ€™s 1984 could foresee.

The Bluesky Bubble This is a relapse, not a fix.

I am posting on Bluesky the piece I wrote about Bluesky for the @theatlantic.bsky.social.

The short version is that it seems very nice here but also it is bad that it seems nice because social media is bad and we need to abandon it.

Further thoughts follow ๐Ÿ‘‡
