I’ve never seen single payer healthcare described in US headlines as a “majority public opinion” despite polling saying it is

According to this @zdfde.bsky.social Politbarometer poll, 76% of Germans are in favour of more defence spending with new debt. This includes 90% of CDU voters, 52% of Die Linke voters and even 70% of FDP voters. A fiscal public opinion revolution.

I guess we’ve been doing this forever.

Some days you just wanna give up , let everything go and follow the light inside of a red cabbage

Trumpism is Rape As Political Praxis and military annexation is part of the package

Check out these anti-Trump protest banners. NO KINGS! NO SLAVES! NO NAZIS! PDFs below for those looking to print as a protest sign. Huge thanks to @luizhcp.bsky.social for his thoughtful & efficient design work.

I think it’s fascinating how this administration’s guiding principle on every single policy is just “be evil.” Starving children? Take away their food. AIDS patients? Take away their treatments. Refugees from conflict zones? Deport them. Nations under attack? Cut off assistance. VA? Fire everyone.

An official for the German government confirmed the warning to me. www.advocate.com/news/germany...

Critical support to Comrade Bill Kristol

Wczoraj jak co dwa tygodnie opublikowałem nową prasówkę cyfrową, a w niej 10 tekstów m. in. o: - szpiegu, który funduje światu rozwój AI, - poszarpanej inteligencji, - smutnym końcu pionierów gov techu. open.substack.com/pub/jeczjan/...

Some "Russian Warship" vibes here from a tiny fed'l agency. via Brett Murphy: The African Development Foundation (budget ~$40 million) is putting up a fight and denying DOGE + Pete Marocco — the State Dept official dismantling USAID — access to their building:

LUTNICK SAYS THERE IS GOING TO BE A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME WHERE HAND BURNS AFTER TOUCHING STOVE

Bonkers - and uplifting! - story from Poland, I recommend reading the whole thread because it is full of unexpected twists and turns

tomorrow

still bummed this one got buffed over so fast in bport

My trusted friend in Gaza, whose family I help, brought me this news two days ago: "Netanyahu ordered the closure of all Gaza Strip crossings on Trump's orders. The 42-day truce has ended. We are now living in a state of terror. We do not know what fate has in store for us...."

Anyone with some graphic design skills interested in helping me with the design for a protest sign? Happy to flick you some $$$.

lol

At this point countries should consider banning Musk products and sanctioning him outright like he’s a Russian oligarch. Nothing better you could do for the pro-constitutional forces in the US than helping economically annihilate this man

Farmers are going to run to Congress for another handout to deal with the retaliatory tariffs and the answer from Dems has to be "no." This isn't out of retribution, it's because we can't keep creating escape hatches for GOP members of Congress. For the benefit of all, keep the pressure on them.

China? Retaliating against US farmers? They need a new source of soybeans? Why, who could that be?

markets after ignoring the reality for months

THEY EXPECT TO FIND ONE OF US IN THE CRASH, BROTHER

The Army deleted my “Why I served” video where I talked about how I decided I wanted to attend West Point/join the Army after one of the cadets my family used to sponsor died in combat. Probably deleted because she was the first black woman to be CSM at West Point.

Trump must have decided that he hasn’t done enough to help the Canadian Liberal Party…

alright, i took the weekend off to be a normal human and do normal human weekend things, but we're back in the saddle this week with DOGE IS FOUR LETTERS. today's story comes from jordan, who got cut as part of the attack on USAID.

you guys are still trying to pass a 10% universal tariff. I'm telling you we can't pass it. Now what we might be able to do is recreate it. We recreate it in the aggregate.

Again, the richest man in human history personally individually directed this

Current mood as we choose to rip up the boring technical and social infrastructure that lets a modern society function as smoothly, safely, and steadily as ours.

my reasonable centrist betters tell me that it is ridiculous to suggest that the trump administration is filled with segregationists but here again they are forcing out a high-ranking, high-preforming black woman for reasons www.reddit.com/r/fednews/s/...

systematically going around breaking shit the government needs to work is a form of civic education for low-engagement voters whose effects will outlast this administration

palmism with de gaulle characteristics (also known as mitterrandism)

You know, growing up in Eastern Europe, I never once thought that one day an Eastern European politician would be the dignified statesman in the room. Ze is the only actual statesman here among what I can only describe as a savage tribe of inbred mongrels.

New, from me: Tulsi Gabbard purged trans intelligence officers after a Chris Rufo smear campaign. They were targeted because they were trans, their words were mischaracterized, and they were offered no due process. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/the-era-of...

Elon Musk is currently on track to carry out the worst genocide of the 21st century, exceeding Darfur or Tigray. The PEPFAR cutoff alone will kill ~160k adults if the funding is unfrozen after 90 days (which it may not); now they’re also blocking 400k meals meant for severely malnourished children.
