the most surprising and disappointing aspect of becoming a global health philanthropist is the existence of an opposition team

I’ve been arguing for four weeks that Trump is basically a ceremonial head of state while Musk is the actual head of government. There is nothing in today’s Cabinet meeting that argues against that theory. Musk has even paid Trump $10M for the privilege! www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/musk-trump...

So Marty Baron says it plain: “It was only weeks ago that The Post described itself as providing coverage for ‘all of America,’” Baron wrote in his statement. “Now its opinion pages will be open to only some of America, those who think exactly as he does.” www.thedailybeast.com//ex-wapo-edi...

I shared this note with the owner of the Washington Post this morning.

New York's (de)congestion pricing, which charges $9 to drive into Manhattan below 60 St, has reduced traffic, increased ridership, reduced subway crime, and is raising funds to fix the decaying transit system. Rare for a public policy to have this many benefits!

You know… Congress and the senate could always pass resolutions calling Russia the aggressor, supporting NATO and calling for a Ukraine victory. Just sayin…. Stop tweeting start forcing.

Something to understand about the nazi salute nonsense is that back during Reconstruction there was a cottage industry of Klan denial, where Democratic papers would pretend the KKK didn't exist or point to their stupid rituals as evidence they were a Republican delusion or otherwise harmless

If Russia ceases combat operations, the war is over. If Ukraine ceases combat operations, Ukraine is over

The more you know…

No doubt last night’s purge reflects racism and misogyny. But those wrongs are just a cover for the far more serious evils and dangers that exist here.

Turns out the Dow doesn’t love it

Side note. There are eight members of the joint chiefs. the chair is black. the CNO (navy) is a woman. the other six are white guys. chair and the cno got fired tonight.

Lazier than ever.

Portuguese editorial cartoonist Zez Vaz reaches back to Tiananmen Square to call on American defiance.

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

Trump blames Ukraine for starting the war the way a rapist blames his victim for looking too sexy.

Could someone place an order for 100 more Jasmine Crocketts for overnight delivery to the Democratic Party thx in advance

I am not making this up: Republicans have introduced legislation… to increase your bank fees.

FEMA firings are set to increase tonight, even after Trump approved FEMA funding for Kentucky. He calls FEMA worthless but then utilizes it?

A point to consider.

He’s right again.

This is the way.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

Just looking at the events of *this one day* compels the conclusion that the United States Government is being run by morons, psychos, invertebrates, and crooks.

It gives me no pleasure to say she was right.

"USAID workers and their families abroad had no agency help in fleeing after looters overran their homes in Kinshasa..." apnews.com/article/trum...

This is a flat-out, clear-cut violation of the First Amendment.

Tesla paid $0 in federal income tax last year. 2022: $0 2021: $0 2020: $0 2019: $0 2018: $0 Tesla reported $6.7 billion in profit in those years.

She speaks truth.

I have no words.

They should go with "No lives matter"

Too many people didn't appreciate just how wonderful, how glorious, it was that the daily news cycle during Biden's presidency was boring as fuck.

Meanwhile trump’s first buddy trying to remove giant government agencies
