FBI declining comment here is...interesting.

had Biden randomly wandered on the White House roof shouting at reporters about nuclear weapons, Jake Tapper would drop everything to pitch a new series of books and Hannity would anchor ongoing special coverage until 2029

but when Trump does it it's just Trump being Trump!

A composite image juxtaposes a tweet prediction with real-life examples. At the top, a tweet from @ratlimit dated February 21, 2025, predicts that the Nazi salute will become normalized within two years by right-wingers using irony and trolling as excuses. Below the tweet, three photos from early August 2025 show young white women performing Nazi salutes in casual settings—by a pool, in a kitchen, and on a couch. Their posts include captions like “all the pretty girls…,” “Out here cookin like,” and “Dog mom-ing it today,” suggesting they are treating the gesture as humorous or aesthetic, reinforcing the tweet’s warning about meme-driven normalization of extremist symbols.

11 more NYC libraries will soon open on Sundays A $2 million City Council deal will expand seven-day service to more than 30 branches citywide.

Eleven more libraries will reopen on Sundays, thanks to the leadership of the City Council. They never should've been closed in the first place.

As Mayor, I'll end this absurd budget dance that keeps our beloved libraries in limbo year after year.

This 2018 article is a useful reminder that what Trump is doing to government data collection is both a real break from past US precedent, but also totally in line with what we've seen in many other authoritarian countries around the world. The US never was immune to this.

If you, regular person, did anything like this after a fatal car accident, you would be prosecuted for a variety of crimes, including insurance fraud.

If you then repeatedly lied to the courts about it, like Tesla did, you'd get prosecuted for that too, plus stiff monetary sanctions.

you can stack a mansion on top of another mansion, but it'll never be the same

We’re officially in Donald Trump’s mad king era All the books that are fit to cook.

Trump's firing of the head of the BLS, following a poor jobs report, is something that happens in autocratic societies.

Consider when Turkey’s economic agency reported that the country’s inflation rate was at 36 percent, President Erdogan fired the agency's head and replaced him with a loyal ally.

The Texas governor is threatening to arrest Texas Democrats for refusing to participate in a special session he has called to virtually eliminate representation in Congress for 8 million Texas Democrats.

still thinking about the Montana knife maker who said you don't have to worry about tariffs if you buy american. and then three months later, he realized he imports swedish steel and german equipment. and even MiUSA equipment costs $100k more now because of tariffs

U.S. highlighted on international human rights watchlist for 'sustained attacks on civil freedoms' under Trump “The United States appears to be sliding deeper into the quicksands of authoritarianism. Peaceful protests are confronted with military force, critics are treated as criminals, journalists are targeted, and support for civil society and international cooperation have been cut back.” Mandeep Tiwana Secretary General of CIVICUS global alliance
