Wow.

To all you white supremacists *obsessed* with DEI: That Delta plane that landed upside down in Toronto today was piloted by by a white man.

It's shocking how many Trump businesses failed given this type of intelligent, savvy thinking.

It seems to me that if Musk has proof that millions of social security checks have gone out illegally to dead people, he should be presenting that evidence in front of a grand jury under oath tomorrow instead of shitposting it on social media. When can we do this under oath?

PLEASE read this THREAD.

Because you are sucking up to the owner of your newspaper?

I feel like I'm going insane every time I see a media story about DOGE that doesn't also mention the fact that the Government Accountability Office exists and performs the exact function that DOGE pretends to, only in a credibly constitutional, non-partisan, and conflict-of-interest-free manner

JFC indeed.

If Democrats are looking for a great, clear, forceful spokesperson while they are in exile from power, this is the person.

Super glad we torched our reputation with one of our closest allies by continually dangling a self-destructive trade war threat over their head, brilliant 14 Dimensional Chess move here

This is the way.

If you’ve ever taken the oath to uphold the Constitution, this is the time to live up to it.

J. D. Vance just made a horrible speach in Munich, endorsing fascism and the Germany's leader just said "fuck you" in a very diplomatic speech. Trump has chosen Russia over NATO. What an abandonment of everything our country stands for.

Under no circumstances should Democrats work with Republicans for the next two years. This might be a hot take and a Valentine's Dinner solo with bourbon take. But F them. They don't give a damn about democracy or the constitution. So figure this shit out alone. DO NOT HELP THEM. PERIOD

Infuriating.

Sarah Longwell and I discuss the awful speech by JD Vance in Munich—a humiliation for the U.S., and a confirmation that this administration isn't on the side of the democracies. And a coda on the contrasting admirable behavior by several attorneys at DOJ & SDNY. www.thebulwark.com/p/jd-vance-h...

here's today's post: "prosecutors to Donny: fuck straight off, we’re not dropping Eric Adams’ charges" — meet your new heroes of justice. thanks for reading, and please sign up for my daily newsletter to keep getting the good stuff —

Imagine hearing these details – lawyers are locked in room and threatened with being fired until they agreed to dismiss —in Putin or Stalin‘s Russia. Utter brutality, putting a rule of law on a meat grinder.

open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa... What—& I cannot emphasize this enough—the actual fuck?

BIG NEWS: We're holding DOGE accountable. It's not "efficient" to allow Elon Musk's operatives to mess with the systems that send Social Security checks or pay for your mom’s doctor through Medicare. It's dangerous for the economy and a breach of privacy for millions of Americans.

They could stream on YouTube every evening at the same time. People would know that there was a daily recap and tune in when they could.

Just to underscore the tension at DOJ at the moment, here's what one federal law enforcement official told me about the acting deputy attorney general: "I, along with other career FBI and DOJ personnel that I’ve spoken with, really have one message for him and that is, “go fuck yourself, traitor.'"

Valor Danielle Sassoon, Acting U.S. attorney for SDNY - refuses to drop Adams charges and resigns John Keller, Acting head of DOJ Public Integrity Section - refuses and resigns Kevin Driscoll, Acting head of DOJ Criminal Division - refuses and resigns www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

every pandemic, every security leak, every military screw up is on Republicans for entrusting serious jobs to fools, flakes and fanatics.

“Putin would relish a summit with Trump, preferably in Moscow, perhaps around the time of the 80th anniversary of Russia’s Victory Day celebrations in early May…A summit would be, in Putin’s mind, a return to the kind of recognition Russia enjoyed in 1945…” www.themoscowtimes.com/2025/02/13/p...

Folks: I am NOT affiliated with the group that is using my name to support an economic boycott. Please spread this post, if you would.

Just a reminder that Germany was the center of scientific progress until the Nazis suppressed, drove away, or killed all the non-Nazi scientists.

And for the third straight day, the rest of the legacy media did nothing to stand up for the First Amendment. No boycott, no walkout, nothing but business as usual. Then, they wonder why people are canceling subscriptions and turning off their TV's while independent news outlets are thriving.

Men of profoundly underdeveloped spirits, minds, and perspectives are running the country.

When Tillis, Collins and others face the voters they will have to justify putting irresponsible, dangerous people in office. they were so scared of losing a primary they threw Americans under the bus

As USAID is cancelled, those whom they supported are left vulnerable and persecuted. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
