Of course Trump is Krasnov. It may not be factual, like the claims Krasnov's campaign made about Haitian immigrants eating missing pets, but it's clearly true.

Look at this coward. His district is srsly gerrymandered (Waco&Lufkin are 162 m from each other). He set this "Town Hall" in the tiny town of Trinity, TX (pop <2500). It is the red dot in the gerrymander outline of the district.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

The right response: "Show me the enabling statute. Barring that, any attempts to remove my work materials or credentials will be treated as theft from the Federal government." Then ask for armed citizens to provide security.

Imagine being a CIA agent who has to put all the illegal shit you did last week (sell crack, radicalize teenagers, kill scientists) into bland corpo speak so you don't get fired by a guy whose browser history should probably land him under a SuperMax: "I, uh, made deliverables for clients"

Oh, FFS, this is nuts. Beyond legallity, love to see how this works for DOD/Intel people who only have classified email working on TS and above stuff. Or say, wildland fire fighters or prison guards? www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

Oligarchs want the products of creativity without letting creatives have enough to live off of. I'm not saying billionaires are pinatas, but have we actually hung one and let poor people hit it with sticks to see if candy and money fall out? Just to test the hypothesis?

You don’t have to be religious, but prayers and vibes for the Pope are very needed. We do not need the inevitable upheaval of a new pope. Those of you who want to say it can’t get worse- it most certainly and likely will. Expectation is a more conservative pope after Francis dies.

So DOGE intern “Big Balls,” who under no ordinary circumstances would be trusted with sensitive government data access, was engaged in corporate espionage in a prev cybersecurity internship where his boss was so fearful of malicious reprisal he didn’t want to fire him. www.cnn.com/2025/02/21/p...

What's the phrase? "Fuck your feelings." You voted for him. You ignored every warning for the last decade. You were OK with him hurting other people. You gloated when a real estate developer said he'd deport 20 million people...most of them farm workers. We told you this was coming.

Honestly, this applies to people with decibillionaire status, not just decabillionaire status and up. It's more extreme with greater wealth, but having a hundred million in assets is all you need to play vulture in an economic crash.

I will never forget my fellow middle aged friend that got divorced and then told me the problem with dating as a middle aged woman is that all the men are the men other middle aged women divorced.

You tell people that the root factor is that these guys hate Black People, Women and the queer community and they act like you're talking nonsense but that is the root cause.

A profile of Adm. Lisa Franchetti, the Navy's top officer, who spent roughly half of her 40-year career at sea, commanding a destroyer, two carrier strike groups and the U.S. Sixth Fleet, & whom current Defense Secretary and former Fox & Friends co-host Pete Hegseth fired tonight.

“A desire to force U.S. military leaders to be obedient to him and not the Constitution is one of the constant themes of Trump’s military-related discourse.”

There is so much Resistance taking place that it's hard to keep track. This weekend, we will see protests at Tesla dealerships across the US (I know 3 are planned for around the DMV with @thirdactmd.bsky.social involved).

I don’t know why this is hard for folks to understand. The layoffs aren’t just about probationary employees. They are going beyond that. It won’t stop. It’s all about making agencies non-functional.

This Atlantic article, by Shane Harris & Jonathan Lemire, is maddening. We need insider reporting on the powerful sometimes. We don’t need the kind that replicates the anxieties of the powerful about their jobs, & their ignorance about a threat Trump & Hegseth have literally declared for a year.

"Out of respect for American culture, we are ensuring every migrant is handed an American-made gun and a tee shirt saying "¡Orgulloso miembro de una Unidad de la Milicia de la Libertad! ¡No infrinjan!" before they cross the border. Just returning the guns you shipped to defend your liberties."

Remember when Trump said that the Down dropping 1k points should result in Presidential resignation? I would pay actual US dollars for someone to play that clip to him live on camera and ask when he's stepping down.
