America’s allies should be deeply concerned about Pete Hegseth’s confirmation hearing. America’s enemies, meanwhile, are almost certainly laughing in amazement at their unexpected good fortune. www.theatlantic.com/newsletters/...

It’s a reality show and we live in it.

#ACTUALNEWS The Senate just passed legislation by a simple voice vote to fund pediatric cancer research, a provision that House Republicans stripped from the government funding extension.

Agreed. IF Biden's administration understands the dangers of retaining Elon's contracts, AND they do nothing because trump will just "undo" it, THAT is obeying in advance. Throw sand in the gears. Make trump do his own dirty work. REVOKE his clearance and his contracts.

NEW: Putin said that he should have violated the ceasefire he had imposed on Ukraine in 2014 by launching a full-scale invasion even earlier when asked to reflect on his 2022 decision to attack. isw.pub/UkrWar121924 More key takeaways from Putin's annual Direct Line televised press conference 🧵(/8

If Trump and Elon Musk think voters will blame Democrats for the government shutdown I’ve got a social media app to sell them

Zelensky calling putin a fucktard is funny and all, but it has a clear objective to ignite the fire a bit and definitely get media attention for that speech of putin, where he states the war was started cause russians were bored and wanted some action, which is a direct quote btw.

GOP extremists want House Democrats to raise the debt ceiling so that House Republicans can lower the amount of your Social Security check. Hard pass.

100% this. The only thing obeying in advance gets you is that you look like a jackass to both sides of the aisle.

Russia is pulling out of Syria now that Assad has been defeated. Will they do the same in the United States if Republicans are lose badly enough in the midterms?

🚨NEW REPORT: Health insurers raked in $371 BILLION in profits since passage of the ACA, while raising family premiums to $26K a year. More than 40% of the profit went to UnitedHealth, whose profits rose 400% as the company denies nearly 1 in 3 claims. Pass it on: www.levernews.com/health-insur...

Elon is reading Twitter DMs of • Congressmen • donors • CEOs • federal employees • espionage rings & bot farms • heads of state As of 2022, DMs were accessible in admin god-mode unless BOTH parties deleted their correspondence. $44BB was a bargain for the kompromat. This was the "business plan."

Pretty sure it is.

Think about it: The death of expertise in the age of information. Why do we trust influencers over scientists? All thoughts welcome on the erosion of reliable authority and its implications for society. #InformationLiteracy

They’re planning a heist in plain sight.

Listening to the news about the CEO killer, I thought I’d provide a little profiling background as a counterpoint to the pundits. 1. Profiling is an analytical process meant to evaluate offender behavior in order to NARROW THE SUSPECT POOL in unsolved cases. (1/n)

Crypto czar? How does one rule over a fake currency?

Congress absolutely curb stomped the intelligence community today for their handling of Havana Syndrome, stopping just short of accusing them of corruption. I've never read a report like this that is so scathing, accusing the IC of lacking integrity.

If you're looking for an alternative pejorative to call someone, I personally recommend the utterly melodious term "chucklefuck"

“Trump appears determined to test if he can squander the goodwill he has, and when he does, it will only serve to reinforce what many already know: his leadership is a clear and present danger to the principles that hold this nation together.” My latest: adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/the-honeym...

The incoming Trump administration is not sending their best. They’re sending people with big problems, and they’re bringing those problems to us. They’re rapists. They’re alcoholics. They’re criminals. And some, I assume, are good people 🤷🏽‍♀️
