You need to answer them with the truth. Getting along is not the point if you cave to terrorists.

I agree. I grew up in Evanston. The north side is making us proud.

They were right. We, in 2016, were right. In 2024, we were right. And now Bari Weiss is sitting atop the media hierarchy. And we’re still right.

Look at academia giving me a little hope

Americans are relearning the lesson we learned during the Gilded Age of the late 1890s, when robber barons ran the government and the economy for their own benefit: Oligarchy is incompatible with the common good.

I'm hopeful we'll respond with a new progressive movement.

This is a guy who lies about all his numbers, from the size of his condo in NYC to his own height and weight. So it’s no surprise he wants to lie about economic numbers now.

Oh, spare us. I’m glad that he wasn’t seriously hurt, but the idea that, after all these years of observing his behavior, the media can still write about Trump’s personality without mentioning that he has demonstrably sociopathic traits, and is, in fact, a sociopath, and …

For the oppressed, peace is the absence of oppression, but for the oppressor, peace is the absence of resistance.

Damn Final Fantasy Tactics was spitting facts in ‘97

I'm trying to imagine a Democratic president saying openly and proudly that he would be sending federal agents to target the 'Republican Power Center' in Texas, Florida, and Tennessee. We would be in the midst of a civil war before he'd finished saying those words.

I think of a short story by Graham Greene in 1954 called “The Destructors.” There is a synopsis in Wikipedia if you google it. The protagonist is Trevor AKA “T” who leads a cruel gang which destructs rather than destroys a house owned by an elderly man. It’s diabolical. Truly chilling

I believe Jewish people are actually less likely than average to do this. Pointing out and highlighting if some do is anti semitic. Obviously no one should do this. It’s un American and inhuman.

This. I was just remembering this. Take a lot of people with you.

Rick Steves and the Green brothers are examples of people who do well honestly. There are many.

April 12, 1945: death of FDR.

Churchill: "His love of his own country, his respect for its constitution...were evident, added to these were the beatings of that generous heart which was always stirred to anger and to action by spectacles of aggression and oppression by the strong against the weak."

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive.

No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief.

Yet again, it’s time to bring up a very important episode of @ricksteves.bsky.social . It’s very much worth your time to check it out and pay attention to how eerily similar it is to our current state of affairs.

An open letter from an American-owned tour company to our Canadian travel buddies 🍁

The people Attorney General Bondi is calling “terrorists” have had no trial and no chance to defend themselves. We do not know who they are. Ignoring the Constitution does not make us safe. It puts us all in peril.

Holy cow. This is VERY well done.

This is what Team Fight looks like.

RETWEET if you stand with Officer Fanone!

The New Republic is doing it right. Journalists take note

California Governor @gavinnewsom.bsky.social has wisely launched a website to combat disinformation about the fires: www.californiafirefacts.com

He’s a manbaby. Obama had to sit him.
