Hints of summer #detroit

Well said, unfortunately

Satellite imagery has revealed an increase in Russia's military activity near its border with Finland signaling its intention to build up its troops by NATO's eastern flank.

We understandably mock this because it seems so pathetic that somebody so powerful could be so small and insecure. But authoritarianism flows from these tendencies. He acts to suppress criticism and dissent because he is incapable of handling it.

Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi went to a consulate in Istanbul to get a document he needed to get married. Instead, he was murdered and dismembered on the orders of Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, now a close pal of Donald Trump.

You know, every single Republican in Congress knows the Library of Congress isn't a lending library for school kids. They know every book published in the US is sent there so Congress can find it if it wants to. So they all know exactly how stupid this is.

Magnificent. Not only has Grok gone rogue on Musk but it’s now turned whistleblower.

White House cancels program which reduced sudden infant deaths

“Success has many [parents], while failure is always an orphan” (or at least someone else’s kid)

This MS-13 tattoo thing is Trump in a microcosm, and worth some serious journalistic scrutiny. He is so terribly, insistently wrong. Is he that stupid? DId his staff deceive him? Was no one willing to tell him the truth? All of the above?

Incredibly telling moment. Trump is completely sure he is right here. We have a president that is pickled in his information bubble, high on his own supply, can't tell his administration's propaganda from reality. Next the White House will insist Trump is right!

Feudal serfdom FTW?

Casual reminder that the country fucking hates this shit.
