I'm considering teaching Silent Spring in my new class 'Theorizing the 20th Century' to cover the environmental movement & maturation of a technocratic mentality associated with the growth of the state. There's a critique of modernity here but I worry it's so familiar as to strike students as banal

Vance has been harder on his wife than he is on the Hitler lover, who often refers to him as "fat boy" and his wife by a racial slur. Makes Ted Cruz look like Costner in The Bodyguard.

Whatever you think of these people, this is so cringe. 😬

this needs to known far and wide

Jeff calls out what the MSM totally ignores: this racist group in charge of every branch of the government has hate at its core. Not just hate, either. Nazi hate. Fascist hate.

this is important context: destroying SNAP has been on the GOP wishlist for a longtime. (The same with the ACA). Tax cuts for trillionaire Elon Musk? No problem. Food for hungry people? Nah.

I'm gonna put this out there, because this seems to be the latest maga talking point.

Yeah I really miss X-er, where I got doxxed for retweeting articles that were critical of Charlie Kirk and had people put my address, phone number, and wife's name on the Internet.

So you can f--k right off to Musk Island with the other creeps.

I’m still shocked that stories like this which come out daily still get largely ignored. The most corrupt person to ever hold any public office in US history. I will keep posting them every day and try to amplify them, even when most media doesn’t care. www.wsj.com/finance/curr...

Yay trains!

DHS says our new piece is "dishonest, slanted, and fundamentally inaccurate" but won't say why. Here's the story where we show with evidence that DHS spliced together clips spanning years and multiple locations to create its own reality. Gift link wapo.st/4nuDGwf

1984, Idiocracy version Trump is like Big Brother if Big Brother were an incompetent buffoon.

New in PN: 1984, Idiocracy version

"Despite Trump’s desperate efforts to hypnotize people into believing his tariff bowel movements smell like sunshine and roses, a large majority of Americans are not enjoying the bouquet of rising prices when they go to the grocery store."

(A) an “ABC Nursery Rhymes” version from an album called “Classical Baby,” which nevertheless

This is … a fair question. And DeRosa, if only for the sake of her own conscience, should think about what a fair answer to the question should be.
