Having watched with growing alarm the developments of the last 24 and 36 hours in Washington, I thought I’d take a stab at how the US media would cover this story if it was happening in a foreign country. Here’s that story that should be written this weekend: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/musk-s-jun...

A dangerous bill sanctioning anyone who works with the International Criminal Court is moving quickly through Congress. H.R. 23 would harshly punish lawyers, academics, and rights advocates — and their family members — for helping the ICC pursue justice for war crimes and other atrocities.

Just days into Trump's new administration, the Office of Gun Violence Prevention website now shows a 404 "page not found." This is mere months after former U.S. Surgeon General Vivek Murthy declared gun violence "a public health crisis."

Wow. Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde fearlessly calls out Trump and Vance to their faces. This is heroic. (posting in 3 parts due to Bluesky's 1 minute limit)

If you find that your uninformed personal opinion disagrees with expert consensus on a technical topic, please consider that “all the experts know something I don’t” is a much more likely explanation than “I alone solved a complex problem that all the world’s experts have long been studying.”

Not all FBI background checks are created equal. As it turns out, Hegseth's background check didn't include his ex-wives or the woman who accused him of sexual assault. That's not an oversight. The FBI is letting itself be party to a whitewash. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/the-fbi-ba...

A horrible people, right? All murderers, rapists, criminals, and drug traffickers, right? Trump once called them animals. Y'all, Mr. Rogers said look for the helpers. Those helpers are currently coming from Mexico & Canada to help with a natural disaster here. Let's stop shitting on our neighbors.

Yea, let’s get all worked up over the Hunter pardon the same weekend Trump nominated Jared Kushner’s felon dad—who he previously pardoned!—to be the ambassador to a G7 ally. Because that’s not corrupt at all.

MAGA voters actually love progressive policies. They just don’t know it. This would be great for Democrats.

One way to think about Speaker Mike Johnson’s cover-up of Matt Gaetz’s ethics report — if it exonerated him of underage affairs or sex trafficking, you’d be sure they’d get it out as quickly as they could. The fact they want to keep it hidden tells you a lot about how damaging the truth is.

Donald Trump and his allies have begun mapping out specific plans for using the federal government to punish critics and opponents should he win a second term, with the former president naming individuals he wants to investigate or prosecute.

I've gotten to the point in life where my socks just fall off. For no reason. Are the elastics frayed or something? No, my heals apparently just don't work anymore. No one warned me about this and I'm not happy about it.

Ohio voters: The extremist GOP Secretary of State is canceling vote, purging thousands of names recently from the voter rolls, right before this important referendum on abortion rights. Make sure you were not among them! Check here for your status: voterlookup.ohiosos.gov/voterlookup....

You can’t delete your past, MAGA Mike Johnson. The internet is forever, and so is your vile hate.
