Strong moment from AOC’s speech in Utah

initial reports made this sound like a minor failed attempt

A farm-to-table bistro in deep blue Ithaca, NY might seem like a strange place to meet Trump supporters. But over the clang of earthenware appetizer trays, you can hear whispers that Biden is the reason the citrus-glazed salad turnips with gochugaru cost $14.

The only thing I can say for this ongoing catastrophe is that my love of art cinema did at least introduce me to the notion that underneath the facade of polite society, there’s a lot of fascist butchery just waiting for the moment and situation to emerge

Ended. Up. Ended. Up. endedup

Generative AI is basicallly burning the planet to ashes. But honestly, I think it's worth it.

AOC: Donald Trump is a criminal—convicted on 34 felony counts of fraud. He is lying, and he is manipulating the stock market too. At his best, he enriches himself, the billionaires who back him, and the members of Congress who trade with him. Not you. Not me. Not the people.

I’m sorry but this is why, if you find yourself in a room with Donald Trump, you look him right in the eyes and tell him he’s a moronic, fascist piece of human garbage. Because otherwise this might happen

From "Character Limit," about how Musk freaked out when his tweets started getting less engagement and he tasked the entire company with solving the problem. This is the deranged manbaby now in charge of the government, destroying lives by the millions rather than the thousands.

AOC is calling out colleagues for stock trades before tariffs were paused: “Any member of Congress who purchased stocks in the last 48 hrs should probably disclose that now … It’s time to ban insider trading in Congress.” AOC is absolutely right. More here: www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/saturdays-...

"He took his case to Europe. For closed-door meetings with EU’s heavy hitters. Japan was in the room too, listening closely. The pitch was simple: if Trump went too far with tariffs, Canada would start offloading Treasury bonds. A slow, steady bleed...." deanblundell.substack.com/p/carneys-ch...
