I feel 20 IQ points dumber after watching Law and Order Seasons 20 or so.

I really like watching SVU because the characterization seemed OK. But Law and Order Seasons 20 to 22 have varying leaps of logic that's so staggering it boggles the mind that even a single scene got shot.

"I try to explain how Trump's strategies work, because I think if people can see it for themselves, then maybe they will self-persuade. You can introduce doubt. You want to get them to realize they can ask questions and think critically, because it is cult-like in the way people get programmed."

My sister really wanted to fly home from Murica because she just had her birthday. But with their recent plane crashes, nope. Not gonna happen.

We find X to be a shell of its former self. Will we find Murica in the same spot within the next, oh, three months?

We worked for months with USAID to build an $85,000,000 project to end TB in two regions of the Philippines. The project is funded by private money, the Philippine government, and matching USAID funds. It could provide a blueprint for eliminating TB worldwide--except it's...not happening.

If Congress confirms Russell Vought after this I think we can safely say the separation of powers is meaningless until the Democrats take back a house of Congress.

I get that law schools like to acknowledge high profile stuff that their alumni get up to, but maybe not those who are actively trying to destroy you? Discretion being the better part of valor and all.

Donald Trump is trying to purge the federal government of career civil servants and replace them with his political cronies. This a very bad development and I fear it will get worse. Paige and I discuss. www.youtube.com/watch?v=XdBI...

CNN reports that the January 6 criminals have been told they are invited to attend inaugural balls tonight. They are going to be released from the D.C. jail momentarily. All are insurrectionists. We are not a democracy anymore, folks. We do not have rule of law.

even in 2025's media landscape, this story is jawdropping: Jim Acosta's morning CNN ratings are often higher than most of even the primetime anchors, but they wanna move him to midnights just to appease Trump (props to @oliverdarcy.bsky.social on yet another big scoop)

The trap for the woman who says she was raped by Hegseth: GOP Senators (namely Susan Collins and Joni Ernst) won't meet with her privately, and Hegseth's lawyer promises to sue her for defamation (combined with a right-wing media sphere that would surely ruin her entire life) if she speaks publicly
