Signal's end-to-end encryption is useless if one end (someone's phone) has been hacked. It is, however, good for hiding stuff from public records laws. This is a huge scandal.

In any other administration of the past 80 years, the defense secretary and the national security advisor would, following an equivalent scandal, now resign.

A group of Dem senators are demanding answers from the Trump admin about the war plans Signal debacle: 1. What disciplinary action will be taken against those involved in the "Houthi PC small group" Signal chain? Will you revoke their security clearances? What security training had they received?

Jeffrey Goldberg thinking he was being pranked and then realizing he was actually just in the war plans group chat is such a good microcosm of how it feels to be alive right now, everything seems fake until you realize it’s actually real and incredibly stupid

1. What you see here is clearest illustration why things are so messed up and why it cannot get any better until this asymmetry is addressed. Put simply: the right-wing has narrative dominance. My org @mmfa.bsky.social did this study and has been sounding this alarm for years. Some thoughts...

Let’s face it, Schumer has been terrible even before this. It is time for new leadership. He isn’t the person for this moment in history, and the longer he clings to power the worse off we all are.

AOC: "There is a deep sense of outrage … There are members of Congress who have won Trump-held districts … walked the plank and took innumerable risks in order to defend the American people … To see some Senate Democrats even consider acquiescing to Elon Musk, I think it is a huge slap in the face."

Schumer needs to be replaced as minority leader. He's out of touch, hapless, and ineffective to the point of complicity. Wake up, Dems. FFS.

He is so weak. Whatever the approach was going to be, Schumer has totally bungled this chance. He must step down as our Senate leader. What an embarrassment! ☎️☎️ call his office ☎️☎️ www.nytimes.com/2025/03/13/u...

"Because of public skepticism, it is not settled science" is a profoundly anti-scientific view. It's embracing the notion that grifters can overcome truth with sheer volume, that truth itself isn't based in observable reality but in the scope of consensus.

This is simply incredible: Christiane Amanpour said reports indicate that the Trump regime reached out to opposition leaders in Ukraine to try to get them to challenge Zelensky, and they said no. This is election interference at best - like trying to start a coup! He is following Putin’s playbook!

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.
