The “marching” is pretty ugly because the Army does not actually DO this outside basic training. Unless you’re in a VERY specialized unit like Old Guard at Arlington. They do everything they can to avoid pass-and-review stuff. Which just emphasizes how FOREIGN this all is.

🚨New: “Trump Org Keeps Bringing In Foreign Workers To Staff Its Clubs And Winery” It’s sought to import 1,880 foreign workers since 2008, per Labor Dept. records—including 31 farm workers for its vineyard this year. me, for @forbes.com 1/

Fucking Sophie's Choicing lawyers

🌲Ed Sheeran explains to Louis Theroux that he dislikes private jets and prefers trains because "I like the environment, I like trees." We know that this type of messaging from celebrities is hugely impactful. We need far more of this from more stars. As posted by @nowthisimpact.bsky.social

Corruption In Plain Sight Is Still Very Much Corruption open.substack.com/pub/danieldr...

This should not be a shock. The NYT prime target readership is Wall Street and Madison Avenue. They write stories to make these people as comfortable as possible. The financial & advertising media elite want feel comfortable about living with Trump as President.

The NYT is a mouthpiece for the 1%. It is loading the dice for Cuomo to win. Here, in a story nominally focused on the candidates and Trump, they completely ignore that Cuomo perjured himself to Congress. Trump owns him because he can make charges stick. Cuomo is like Eric Adams.

One take I got from Daniel Drezner's article is how MSM political media is corrupted by Trump's talent at feeding their constant need for corruption.

Republicans defunded PBS, NPR, and humanitarian aid and pretended it was about the deficit, right after voting for massive tax cuts for the rich. www.huffpost.com/entry/house-...

Senator Cassidy betray his oath as doctor to support this installing this madman as Secretary of HHS because he does not want to cross Trump when he comes up for at his next election.

RFK Jr.’s political power comes from two things: (1) His last name (2) His leadership of the online anti-vaccination movement. Online conspiracism is so politically powerful on the MAGA right that it landed him a cabinet position. That’s why Trump courted him in 2024. MAGA is fueled by conspiracism.

I don't live near Boston and I'm not gay, but this image alone makes me want to attend the event.

I think it is against their principles. The "Glengarry Glen Ross" principles.

Oh this is not good.

Welcome to America where lawlessness reigns.

we don’t deserve dogs 🥹

we don’t need to abolish ICE, we can just sell it to private equity and let nature take its course

yep! unpaywalled:

As a four-decade veteran of the daily journalism business, let me tell you: Every competent political reporter in this country knows that Trump is trying to establish a dictatorship. The industry's shame is that so few journalists will say so, and the ones who do lose their jobs.

I guess one brown person looks like another.

🚨 Secretary Noem basically said that her agency is now dedicated to forcible regime change…in American cities and states. There 👏🏽 is 👏🏽 a 👏🏽 name 👏🏽 for 👏🏽 this

OTD in 2008 Gazprom CEO Alexei Miller said the company would become the world's first $1 trillion company. It is now worth about 3% of that. I remain a master strategist.

“Plaintiffs have shown that the defendants disclosed OPM records to individuals who had no legal right of access to those records. In doing so, the defendants violated the Privacy Act and departed from cybersecurity standards that they are obligated to follow. This was a breach of law and of trust."

Shameful. This guy is so earnest and patient in describing what happened—something truly un-American. I hope his girlfriend and the family behind them are okay.

WTF is Hassett talking about? Magic unicorn health insurance.

This is what a lot of them have wanted for many years.

Willi Castro, baseball player for the Minnesota Twins used the trans flag as eye black to showcase his support for our community. I hope he realizes how much this matters for trans people. Especially when the MLB is considered to be a very macho sport. I have so much respect for him. King shit! 🏳️‍⚧️
