She’s Young, Trump-Friendly, and Has a White House Press Pass Natalie Winters, a protégée of Stephen Bannon, belongs to a newly high-profile contingent of West Wing reporters.

The New York Times can’t stop doing puff pieces on fascists.

‘Point-Blank Range’: How Israel Executed 15 Medics and Rescue Workers in Gaza I had a difficult time writing this essay because I could not stop thinking about the level of evil needed to carry this out.

Writing for Zeteo, Diana Buttu says she had a difficult time writing this essay because she could not stop thinking about the level of evil needed to carry this out.

one of the best books i read last year!!! highly recommend reading martyr! as well

RFK is a eugenics freak first and foremost and everything falls downstream from that. he *wants* excess deaths. he thinks that only the "fit" should survive.

The U.S. Geological Survey estimates that the Myanmar earthquake death toll could surpass 10,000—a devastating number.

The Center for Global Development) estimates that eliminating USAID will result in the same number of deaths *per day* for the first year.

This is the stupidest I think it has ever felt to just be going to work every day

Politics hasn't been this simple in a long time: do you think it's good for one man to exercise unchecked, arbitrary power or not. Those are the two available ideologies right now

On the subject of people traveling to the US right about now: Fuck, if I were from another country and I didn't need to come, I sure as hell wouldn't, the current administration has made it clear traveling here isn't safe, and why not take them at their word, there's a whole world to visit

BREAKING: DHS Detains Palestinian Student from Columbia Encampment, Advocates Say Agents told him his student visa was revoked. But he had a green card. Agents then said that was revoked too.

They disappeared a green card holder and threatened to arrest a citizen.

We are in some serious trouble in ‘democratic’ America.

SCOOP: Emails Show Mahmoud Khalil Asked Columbia for Protection a Day Before He Was Detained "I haven’t been able to sleep, fearing that ICE or a dangerous individual might come to my home. I urge you to intervene and provide the necessary protections to prevent further harm."

SCOOP—Emails obtained by Prem Thakker and Zeteo show Mahmoud Khalil reached out for help from the Columbia administration *one day before* ICE detained him.

He said he couldn't sleep from threats he was receiving.
He even wrote he feared ICE "might come to my home."

Imagine if the most prominent member of the Biden administration had reposted, in agreement, someone calling a prominent GOP senator a ‘retard’. Would have been the end of the world, biggest scandal ever. The asymmetry in American politics continues to grow. Just wild to see.

November 2024: Trump will save the economy
March 2025: We have returned to subsistence agriculture

Utterly grotesque.

What’s interesting about the Oval Office fiasco is that it was Trump who repeatedly claimed during the campaign that he would end the war in ‘24 hours’ and that he was a master negotiator.

Did the guy sulking, then berating Zelensky, then kicking him out, look or sound like a master negotiator?

Whoever supports this is a murderous ghoul

Treasonous

Dickless chode

in addition to being a contemptible liar and hollow opportunist, jd vance is also just pathetic. only a guy who has fried his brain on social media would even think to say something like this

Oh so we're BONED boned, got it.

The Nuns Trying to Save the Women on Texas’s Death Row Sisters from a convent outside Waco have repeatedly visited the prisoners—and even made them affiliates of their order. The story of a powerful spiritual alliance.

Dismantling the death penalty is a responsibility that belongs to all of us. Inspiring to see how a group of nuns are trying to save women on death row in Texas: www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...

a cacophony of cicadas with a guest appearance by the wind

my view is that as soon as the administration froze disbursement of congressional appropriations we entered constitutional crisis territory

What Republicans really mean when they blame 'DEI' | Mehdi Hasan Referencing DEI is the new rightwing abstraction deployed by Republicans to conceal their anti-Black racism

“Today, DEI has become the new N-word; the new rightwing abstraction deployed by Republicans to conceal their anti-Black racism.”

My latest for the Guardian, in which I cite Lee Atwater, and bring lots of receipts.

Sorry, but it has to be said:

Nothing to worry about: the world’s richest man, and donor to Donald Trump, is bragging about killing off the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

The party of the little guy against the elites! Yeah!

Trump says he will fire Kennedy Center board members, appoint himself chairman Trump did not attend prominent events during his administration. The move comes as his directives have begun to force changes at Washington’s cultural institutions.

Totally normal

The most surreal and maddening feature of the campaign was that everyone agreed that high prices were the main issue but the guy explicitly, consistently running on a platform of raising everyone’s prices won voters most concerned about high prices.

We hammered this time and time again and yet.

Donald Trump has openly declared Gaza will be ethnically cleansed.

And our media is normalising it 👇
