I'm sure the Palestinians who died under trump may have been better off, but we'll never know. Now they just hay bibi and trump planning their resorts. #thanksundecided

Guess who came to dinner with Flynn and Putin NBC News reviewed video and photos from a 2015 Moscow gala that Mike Flynn was paid $45,000 to attend to see who else was in the room.

Well,because she's okay with Russian invasion into Ukraine. www.nbcnews.com/news/world/g...

Never in the history of the US has any president openly and repeatedly called for the investigation, arrest & prosecution of his political opponents. While many continue to shrug these things off and normalize them, I will never stop pointing out that this is what autocrats do.

A manufactured job slump to give corporations the upper hand. Sad but true.

Thanks, #undecided!

It’s amazing how all the reporting is just memory-holing this part

Tear it all down.

Yup.

I don’t…what…how…?

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

Reminds me of Chuck Todd on MTP. Politician says batshit crazy thing, Chuck Todd "... well, Senator, we're going to have to leave it there..." Sigh.

My kid is at the heart of this campaign. The next decade will shape his childhood and the childhood’s of all our kids when it comes to the neighborhoods they call home, the air they breathe, and the opportunities they can count on.

It's a loyalty pledge meeting. Pledge allegiance to Donald or resign.

Opinion | This Is About So Much More Than Lisa Cook

to me, the “column” is less a form than an opportunity (and a challenge). you’re telling me i have as much space as i’d like to make an argument about anything i’d like to an audience inclined to pay close attention? well let’s see if they’ll read 2000 words on democratic legitimacy. (gift link)

“.. The President even said his recommendations were ‘based on what I feel.’ It was reckless guidance from a man with no medical training, delivered from the nation’s most powerful podium.”

“.. Iger hasn’t just abandoned its biggest star. He’s signaled that .. Disney will play ball with the government, even if it means jeopardizing its credibility, alienating its audience, and putting the very principle of free speech at risk.”

Mr @carlquintanilla.bsky.social , you are appreciated. I wish @cnbc.com had more sane voices, but the desire to make rich folks feel good is cnbc's first principle.

This is the Rebellion manifesto written by the character Nemik from the series Andor. It offers a guideline for hope while under threat from tyranny and inspiration for those brave enough to stand up and fight.

Andor, a Disney+ show about resisting fascism, just won 5 Emmys. Three days later, the network caved to it.

“.. I fear it will turn the military from being an apolitical institution to being a political one.”

A man stands at the open front door of his house, looking back into the home with a worried expression. Outside the doorway, an intimidating group of heavily armed and armored soldiers in gas masks and tactical gear are crowded together, aiming their rifles directly at him. Inside, the cozy home contrasts sharply with the menacing military force outside. The caption below reads: "Honey, did you post something negative about the regime?"

Last week, this cartoon was actual. Now it is more-true. Next week it will be more truer.
