Exactly two people are celebrating the United States’ great abdication: Trump and Putin. The world weeps. Europe acts. And decades of U.S. leadership have been lost.

Michael Oliver and the @pgmol.bsky.social have a huge David Coote problem. #broken #English #referees

Today’s show was my last at CNN. My closing message: It’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant… don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to fear. Hold on to the truth… and hope.

I think journalists, policymakers and good govt types are struggling to understand DOGE because their mental model is that it is a government reform commission, operating like previous ones. Maybe. But it might be better to start thinking about it as a hostile takeover of the govt by oligarchs.

The fact that it wasn’t will forever be America’s shame.

Louder for those in the back. You can call it "paying a 17 year old for sex" as much as you want. But, the word you are looking for is "rape."

Venomous antisemitic posts on the @lfcr.bsky.social Facebook page today in response to a Happy Hanukkah message. Facebook deems calling Jews “baby killers” and images of Nazi tropes within their community standards. #banthehaters #facebook

Why I am fine with Eat the Rich: Jeff Bezos announcing that he's marrying his next wife, Lauren Sanchez, in a lavish $600m ceremony. They live in Florida. $600m would cover 2 years of FL k-12 free lunch programs. Last year the state discontinued the office that helped schools file for free lunches.

As a long time @lfcr.bsky.social fan/fanatic/supporter, having to endure hearing a former Red, Steven Warnock, bending over backwards to praise all opponents of the team, is nauseating. Anyone who knows this guy should have a word. Is being neutral too much to ask ? #lfc

@nytimes.com was culpable then, and is culpable now. Only the actors have changed. The paper of record is shameless. #boycott #fascists

"The menace of Adolf Hitler has been greatly exaggerated.... There is an innocence almost childish about the detailed fashion un which he sets out to be blood-curdling." --New York Times, Sept. 27, 1930

The referee officiating the @lfcr.bsky.social game at St. Mary’s seems to have a Coote problem. A lot these sort around for sure.

Of course I’m glad Gaetz went down, & my fingers are crossed that Hegseth will follow—nobody as Christian nationalist as him has ever been this close to power. But I’m troubled that the only way to stop them is via their alleged sex crimes. Fascism is apparently not a problem.

Since the red part Bluesky blew up at the beginning of the week - I have barely posted on twitter at all. This a far much more fun. Only talking with those who want to talk. Respectful debate. No porn. No nastiness. Just like minded people with interests we share. Long may it continue. YNWA.

Hi new butterflies. Welcome to the friendlier skies.

What's happening today 👇

The American electorate voted for a pedophile to be President. This maggot, in turn, has appointed a pedophile to be attorney general. Keep your children safe, people. This country is sliding into a dark abyss.
