I don't know about you, but this means a tax increase for me.

I'm about to drop a piece at The Atlantic on this Pentagon purge. As I warned, Trump is capturing Justice, Intelligence, the military. This is praetorianism, pure and simple.

“There’s the America I know and love—and then there’s Trump’s America. I will keep looking for signs of opposition, from wherever in the world there are pro-democracy humans who see and reject what’s happening here.” www.americaamerica.news/p/rooting-ag...

Alarming news. Trump threatens to abandon Europe. www.newsweek.com/trump-europe...

I worry the Trump administration will use this as an excuse to start more than a trade war with Mexico. www.cbsnews.com/news/mexico-...

At least I'm not alone thinking how easily avoidable and obviously stupid all this is. prospect.org/world/2025-0...

Way to go, Mexico! Stand up for what is right. thehill.com/policy/techn...

Canada, Greenland, Denmark, Panama, and Gaza could not immediately be reached for comment

Now that musk is saying he’s doing the DOGE stuff “because the globalists have plotted a Great Replacement in which they use government handouts to buy votes from illegal immigrants and urban blacks” maybe we don’t have to act like this is about deficits or cost cutting anymore

Jeff Bezos’ Washington Post would not run this ad. This is the power of oligarchy.

The new Macklemore video everyone’s talking about. You might think it’s about Palestine, but it’s bigger than that. It’s about social media controlling what we see, hear, and think. It’s a call to action. Whew… “fucked up.” youtu.be/sn9EKC9nqU4?...

The leopards are gonna be so fat from eating faces.

Do not obey.

Trump is now saying he is above the law out loud. This is a constitutional crisis.

Finished rebuilding the Lego Porsche 911 Turbo. I bought this for cheap assembled and took it apart. I want to build it into this Corvette MOC that I found, but I am missing the Targa pieces.

This is awesome! A Lego Johnny 5! (not mine, just sharing) youtu.be/0CSOzNtSiZc?...

Accurate

It didn't take long to see where this was going. Good one, @sarahcpr.bsky.social youtu.be/9cJ1IZsp750?...

Trump wants California to burn. It isn't negligence. It is malice.

McSweeney's eyes are open

This is very well written and simultaneously terrifying.

Do not obey
