This is North Korea level crap. It’s embarrassing.

Trump is pushing a narrative that Russia did not invade Ukraine: it happened in front of our eyes 3 yrs ago. When they tell you the bad thing that happened didn't happen be very afraid. My Jewish friends know exactly what I am talking about. www.wsj.com/world/europe... www.wsj.com/world/europe...

“Now that Trump has captured the intelligence services, the Justice Department, and the FBI, the military is the last piece he needs to establish the foundations for authoritarian control of the U.S. government.” www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

donvict acts like a child in 2018. Now, he wants to whitewash history. The last time Canada was the Group of 7 chair, during Mr. Trump’s first term in 2018, the president walked out of a summit meeting in Quebec and withdrew his support for the final joint communiqué, angry about its language...

Trump and Musk are LYING about Social Security to erode confidence in the most popular program in the country. For nearly 90 years Social Security has delivered timely benefits to America’s seniors, people with disabilities, and survivors!

“The idea that a program about a book about democracy has to be approved by someone in Washington was, and should be for everyone, very scary.” — Elaine Weiss, author of “Spell Freedom: The Underground Schools that Built the Civil Rights Movement”

www.nytimes.com/2025/02/22/w... This is an obscenity — stripping Ukraine of funds it needs to recover, offering no security assurance at all. America did not vote for extortion — and certainly not at the expense of a severely-injured victim of Putin’s unilateral aggression.

Under the guise of "strategic necessity," Putin is "nationalizing" private assets in Russia. That way he can redirect them to his war efforts. Then, down the road, he can sell them to a pal & get a big kickback. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/22/w...

If you don’t think we’re in a constitutional crisis— I can’t help you— but if you do and you think governors should just politely sit after the president berates a governor and proclaims he is federal law. Man, I don’t know.

The entire business model of American R1 universities is not viable without restoration of federal funding, & every individual institution pretending it can solve this problem alone is also not viable. University presidents need to be speaking out, collectively & loudly about this, in DC, right now.

I would just like to point out this company with <$3.6 mil> in 2024 revenues just paid the top 3 executives <$90 mil> in compensation for that same year. A top ten all time grift. Hagw!

Her own frontline prosecutors defended their actions--and resigned after being asked to dismiss the Eric Adams case. But now the U.S. attorney general derides the merits of the Eric Adams case in New York. Trump sought loyality. He has it. At least at the top. nyti.ms/4b8McMZ

Vice President JD Vance’s address to the Munich Security Conference last week was the most shocking thing to happen at that annual summit since President Vladimir Putin of Russia condemned the American-led liberal international order there nearly two decades ago. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/22/o...

Rep. Reed is right on the military concerns. As someone who works for an employer operating under a federal contract, I have my fears about how this administration's idea of loyalty will impact my job and career. wapo.st/3QucEHb

DOGE’s Only Public Ledger Is Riddled With Mistakes The figures from Elon Musk’s team of outsiders represent billions in government cuts. They are also full of accounting errors, outdated data and other miscalculations. nyti.ms/4i1ril4

MAGA Has Found a New Model. The leading figures of the Trump administration have fallen for a far-right party in Germany. #ElonMuskNazi #AfD www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

WHAT BUSINESS ACUMEN?? The bankruptcies? Stiffing every contractor he ever hired? The phony university scam? Something else explains this: these people have no critical thinking skills; they believed the all the fake news that told them what they want to hear; and they voted for his racism.

Looking back at the dark days of 2020 and the years following that, the one bright spot was the writings of @edyong209.bsky.social One of the great thinkers and writers of our time. Great interview (gift article) www.nytimes.com/2025/02/22/m...

Lots of liberals defended SpaceX over the years by insisting that the "Brilliant" COO Gwynne Shotwell was the "adult in the room" WSJ showed last year that she helped administer his creepy, intern rape and harassment breeding cult at the company www.wsj.com/business/elo...

DOGE is greatly overstating the savings from any of their cuts. Clearly reckless without any analysis. It’s hard to see the cuts as anything but a pretext for gaining root access to critical systems. Just not sure what they plan to do with that access… www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

www.nytimes.com/2025/02/22/o... “Trump’s moral relativism goes into overdrive when it comes to defending male predators” Good read by Patrick Healy.

Nevertheless, I still see million dollar homes for sale in Grand Isle, Louisiana which is right at sea level and already getting regularly inundated. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/03/o...
