I wrote much of what I think about this election before it happened, so I am going to put it all together here. My book, Autocracy Inc, described the network of autocrats who seek to undermine democracy, inside their countries and ours

Americans proposed that Ukraine concede half of the profits from its mineral rights in perpetuity... in exchange for essentially nothing. This is not a monetary proposition, let alone a "deal," but rather the demand that Ukraine become a permanent American colony.

Such hostile nonsense from Americans in power just now. I wish we would listen to people who have suffered for reporting the truth, like Stanislav Aseyev, combat veteran and survivor of a Russian torture camp.

While the services are pulling out of BEYA, a well-established pipeline for high-caliber STEM talent, they remain engaged with other events. Last week, the same Army recruiting unit that would have attended BEYA instead participated in a National Rifle Association-sponsored event in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, a predominantly white gathering that recruiters acknowledge is less likely to yield high-quality applicants.
Pete Hegseth's DOD has decided to recruit at an NRA event rather than a Black Engineering event.

What we are seeing from Christian Nationals is not Christianity. It's a convoluted repurposing of Nazism.
to call this a clown show is unfair to clowns. pure madness. like playing russian roulette with a machine gun.

Murphy: "We need to act like a real opposition party in the middle of a constitutional and democracy crisis. That means we should not be moving forward nominees or legislation in the Senate. Ds should not be giving votes to nominee or legislation in the Senate until Rs get serious about this crisis"

JUST IN: USDA Confirms Detection of Bird Flu Genotype D1.1 in Nevada Dairy Cows.
This marks the first detection of this virus genotype in dairy cattle.
Previously, all detections in dairy cattle have been linked to HPAI H5N1 clade 2.3.4.4b, genotype B3.13.
Yeah so the Constitution isnβt really in effect right now
