Me: "So which country should @aoc.bsky.social go back to?"
Mick Mulvaney: "She's an American citizen."
Me: "So why did Trump tell her to go back to her country?"

I asked former Trump WH chief of staff Mulvaney if he ever challenged his then boss on his racist tweets.

WATCH — @mehdirhasan.bsky.social : “They’re doing racial profiling, Piers. They’re just grabbing brown people.”

If you listen to the actual audio, it's very clear that she didn't misspeak. She was told she was wrong, but she refused to listen and continued to double and triple down.

The least she can do is apologize and endorse the Democratic nominee even though he's Muslim. Whether she will is unclear.

This confirms Ras Baraka’s account that he was not trespassing.

Trump’s DOJ, Alina Habba and Fox News have lied about the incident repeatedly.

This is a huge scandal.

Trump’s shock troops arrested the mayor of the state’s largest city and then lied about it.

Who ordered the arrest?

Warners Reverses Course: Changes Max’s Name Back to HBO Max WBD CEO David Zaslav announced the move, with the company declaring, "no consumer today is saying they want more content, but better content."

The Supreme Court ruled that the Trump admin must facilitate the return of SMART Union Local 100 apprentice Kilmar Abrego Garcia.

They need to quit wasting time and bring our union brother home NOW!

Fascism and the unreality state it needs to exist are going to really accelerate their attacks on sensemaking and history. More specifically our ability to understand the past and its consequences on our present and future.

Ai and digitization are knowledge destruction and monetization engines.

Tweet from Yuval Abraham: "A group of settlers just lynched Hamdan Ballal, co director of our film no other land. They beat him and he has injuries in his head and stomach, bleeding. Soldiers invaded the ambulance he called, and took him. No sign of him since."

BREAKING: Yuval Abraham, co-director of Oscar-winning documentary "No Other Land," says Israeli settlers beat his co-director Hamdan Ballal, injuring his head and stomach — and then Israeli soldiers invaded the ambulance he was in and seized him.

Ballal's whereabouts are now unknown.

This power grab is unprecedented, unbounded, and unconstitutional.

The fashion of this show is incredible. Min simply owned every room and hallway she was in

I've been thinking a lot about that bumper sticker which says "everything looks like a conspiracy theory when you don't understand how anything works" and folks it's pretty obvious to me that the people in power right now have absolutely no desire to understand how anything works.

ZELENSKYY: Putin broke the ceasefire. What kind of diplomacy, JD, are you speaking about?

VANCE: I think it's disrespectful to come into the Oval Office and try to litigate this in front of the American media

I loved this book! Saw you speak on it at the pdx book fest and read it right after. Beautiful world you created.

You should take another run at that headline ffs

It's annoying how clearly this is going to play out.

They gut the FAA.
Therefore, the FAA can't do its job well because it was gutted.
Therefore, they say "The FAA sucks, we have to privatize it." which is what Project 2025 wants to do. They're manufacturing the crises for their end goal.

TikTok Ban Fueled by Israel, Not China Congressional insiders spill the beans on how the law was passed

Senator Mark Warner spills the beans about "the real story" of how the TikTok ban went down. Turns out, its passage had more to do with the Gaza war than China. www.kenklippenstein.com/p/tiktok-ban...

Acting deputy attorney general Emil Bove assembled DOJ's remaining public corruption prosecutors this morning and gave them an hour to find someone to sign the Eric Adams dismissal.

One of them agreed to do it, to spare the others from potentially being fired.

I really do feel like I’m losing my mind.

And now is the time when we see what companies REALLY gots women’s backs,,, the world is watching 👀

And who determines what the executive’s legitimate power is, JD? The executive?! Come on.

Let me put it in terms you’d get. It’s like football. The judges are the refs, and they say whether you’re in or out of bounds. And Musk is waaaaaay out of bounds with these takeovers of our systems.

Murphy: "I continue to get reports from Connecticut that agencies there, like Head Start programs and community health centers, are actually not receiving the funding they are due. So I think there's a big question as to whether the administration actually is implementing the court order."

Their democracy died. They have lessons for America about Trump’s power grab. Hungarians who lived through Viktor Orbán’s 2010 power grab warn Americans: Act now, before it’s too late.

"In hindsight, the first year may have been the entire ballgame — even if no one quite knew it at the time..."
