Why tho?

Continuously baffled that these men seem incapable of writing full sentences.

You suck. Write less.

God fucking damn it January 2026 has been a shit year.

Oy…

Almost certainly not.

This is utterly shameful equivocating, but does hammer home the point that corporate or billionaire owned news and media needs to be torn down and reformed if we’re to have any hope of reviving American democracy.

Personally I don’t want to go back to any status quo if it means reverting to a system that let a man found guilty of multiple crimes and his idiot sycophants come back into power with even fewer guardrails. Burn it all down and punish the guilty harshly enough that it really means something.

This sounds weak as fuck

Not to distract from the article’s substantive points, but what in the white nonsense is “Brilyn”?

This is great! Thanks!!

Amoral media groups like Politico are part of the reason that the US finds itself in this horrible societal and political mess. Treating politics like a fucking baseball game where stripping millions of people of their healthcare can mean being “at the top of his game.” Fucking soulless ghouls.

I’ve started seeing this and I really hate it.

This “hate the sin, love the sinner” ass bullshit.

What the f*ck does any of that even mean? Where’s Jake Tapper when you actually need him?

I think the Director of the NSA and other top US national security positions should be filled by experienced patriotic professionals, rather than be decided by lunatic conspiracy theorist influencers.

Sorry to get so partisan, but that's how I feel.

Haley Britzky @halbritz AFRICOM commander Gen. Langley tells senators that China is "trying to replicate" USAID programs in Africa as the US scales back USAID. "They're trying to use that as an extension of the Belt and Road Initiative to gain favor by the African countries," Langley said.

Wow who could’ve guessed that this would happen

It’s almost as if USAID was a pillar of American soft power and influence in the world

It’s almost as if it was entirely predictable that America’s adversaries would work to fill the void left by USAID’s destruction

I’d really like a break, please

There’s no reason to have a Democratic Party if it won’t go to the mat to save the Department of Education. It’s a fundamental belief that children in America deserve better futures. It’s tremendously simple. You cannot continue funding a government that would close this.

I feel like this is 100% correct and incredibly sad.

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.

18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.

We made this website to tell our story:
18f.org

Dumb fucks

Donald Trump stops giving PrEP to gay men & sex workers, ensuring HIV outbreaks abroad - LGBTQ Nation The policy change is illegal and will result in easily preventable deaths, experts say.

the trump administration wants gay and trans people to die.

I think it should be made clear at this point: If you're a federal employee, you should consider your work devices bugged. If you've logged into personal stuff on those devices, you should consider suspending or deleting the accounts you accessed.

Primary Every Democrat It’s exhausting to watch poll-tested, donor-beholden congressional Democrats continue to be too old, too cloistered, and too bumbling to do anything as the government burns.

Yay

The six young men raiding US personnel data for Elon Musk are now among the world’s biggest intelligence targets, yes. They have access to tons of sensitive info, and are in way over their heads.

Safe to say plans to try hacking, bribes, blackmail, honey pots—you name it—are already in the works.

Akash Bobba, Edward Coristine, Luke Farritor, Gautier Cole Killian, Gavin Kliger, and Ethan Shaotran are aiding Musk in his government takeover.

I hate that it's gotten this far, but if countries want to counter a US-imposed trade war, they should make Elon Musk's companies a focus of their retaliation.
Those business interests have effectively merged with the US executive branch, and decision-makers value them more than the American people.
