I remember watching this. In 1976.

The DOJ released evidence, which the FBI deemed credible, that the President of the United States sexually and physically assaulted a 13 year old girl AND she was afraid to talk about it because Trump would kill herβ€”and it’s somehow not the biggest scandal in American history?

Oh hell, you're absolutely right. I got turned around looking at Google Maps' street view, trying to retrace steps from my visit there.

Mea culpa.

Across the street actually, but still way too close

With no troops on the ground in Iran and very little chance of ever deploying any there.

Got it.

Sure, tired old tropes get recycled yet again. But what good does that accomplish?

What good does this wild reinvention of reality do anybody?

Does anyone know where Sgt. Brian McGinnis is? Last I'd heard, he had been detained in an undisclosed location & not even his family knew where he was.

I just saw that tonight is Spring Forward. What a bunch of bullshit.

Now more than ever I’m convinced losing Anthony Bourdain meant we lost probably the biggest person on tv who advocated for the wonders of meeting new people and calling anyone online who hated learning new cultures the children they were, ruthlessly to the camera.

1. Win the war
2. Argue what to prioritize during peacetime

Posts like this tell you nothing but who not to trust in the fight against fascists.

Sorry, but telling me at this point your conditions for staying in the fight is just another way of saying that you were never onboard anyway

Their influence rides on making the winning candidate forget they were ever opposed. That's the motive. They pay a price for it, though, through the erosion of trust you describe

And this doesn't delve into other major corporations moving all IT development to GenAI, which will result in slop code going into production, inviting bad actors to attack the vulnerabilities sure to pop up.

Unfucking that, lacking human programmers, will not be quick or easy.

Non sequitur. Consciousness exists in animals generally.

At root is the ability to evaluate the environment and make decisions consistent with survival. AI cannot make decisions.

White House: the witness’sΒ allegations are β€œcompletely baseless” and β€œbacked by zero credible evidence.”

Fact: FBI found her credible enough to interview repeatedly, and she received a financial settlement from the Epstein estate.

One way of thinking about DOGE is that its abuses would never have been possible under a legitimate Justice Department.

Pam Bondi should never again see the outside of a prison.

Anyone who cannot yet see Putin's fingerprints all over Trump's governance cannot possibly be looking.

It's a code blue national emergency but nobody seems ready to admit it

Brian McGinnis' wife has
NOT been allowed to see him in the hospital.
He is currently awaiting surgery for severe injuries.
Legal counsel has also been denied access.
A Marine veteran.
A firefighter.
A father of four.
And his family still cannot see him.

so apparently Brian McGinnis has been denied access to both his family and legal representation since a sitting senator broke his arm
