If you've been around for a while, and start to have second thoughts about whether the Democrats are worth another go: remember that they bankrolled Rahm Emanuel throughout the 1990s onward and basically fucked up both the federal government and Chicago indefinitely

Things can get complicated when you have to retroactively rewrite a storyline because of an unexpectedly popular character, like when Boba Fett “died” in the Sarlacc pit, or when we killed Hitler and collectively proclaimed “Never Again.”

I want to address a related point to the one I raised in this thread. A couple years ago the Times did a really strong package about the power of SpaceX. Not only is SpaceX. Not only is it now one if not the preemptive orbital delivery company in the world it also has a fleet of ...

The U.S. made a deadly error when we collectively permitted Elon Musk to grow this powerful while constantly declining to enforce the law on him.

I wrote about how particularly ridiculous it is that Senate Democrats, led by Dick Durbin, think the priority should be repealing Section 230 and undermining the very open internet we need more than ever right now. www.techdirt.com/2025/02/21/w...

Jonathan Miller is among a growing group of Black farmers on a quest to empower the next generation of farmers as Black people age out of the industry and face challenges in protecting their land. But he’s putting his own spin on it by branching out into fashion.

If you grant that purging the top Black and female military leaders is part of an effort to "root out...military's diversity focus," there are much clearer, more direct, and more true ways to say that.

Most roads and footways are height separated and have curbs so why is it only ever cycleways that pose a "problem"? Is it just an excuse to punch down on a cycleway? road.cc/content/news...

I am inundated with messages from federal workers who are feeling frantic, furious and fed up after receiving Musk’s email and reading his threatening X post. The psychological warfare is the point.

A great illustration of the failure of the liberal media to fulfill its democratic responsibilities: in this case, presenting the claims of known bad-faith actors in good faith and at face value. No rational observer could believe Musk and his cadres have the remotest interest in "public savings".

Brilliant but devastating editorial in the Financial Times. “In the past 10 days, he [Trump] has all but incinerated 80 years of postwar American leadership. If you are not at the table, you are on the menu. America has turned.”

I probably would have been writing a ton about Project 2025 in 2024 if it were not for the genocide. I'm sure that's true about a ton of the best policy researchers out there. The impact of Democratic Party-backed genocide comes through in a thousand different ways that are largely not measurable

Oh this! The Democrats embracing genocide and not fighting it took away so many of the people who usually help on policy stuff. Like people are all up in arms about who everyone voted for but what really hurt them is the lack of organizers

Your weather app gets its info because of NOAA. Your mail arrives at your home because of USPS. Your plane navigates the skies because of the FAA. Your food is safer -- and we get alerts when it isn't -- because of USDA. You hear about earthquakes worldwide because of USGS.

Most of us know Musk is despicable. Before I saw this list I had already heard about most on this list. When people show you who they are, believe them. There’s not any exceptions.

Nazi shit happens at CPAC every single year now. It's undeniable what that hive is. Anyone denying this shit still has their head so far up their own ass that they should never be taken seriously for any reason on any topic ever again because they're delusional.

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.

I wouldn’t think “moved to root out diversity initiatives” is a useful phrase for journalism at all, but using it as a euphemism for a purge of high ranking black officers is downright Orwellian.

The Horrors aside, it is revealing that we've had two decades of press about how this man's management style can't be comprehended by outsiders, that it breaks every rule of normal corporate practice, and now he's forced to do it in public and it's the hackiest cliche of clueless middle manager

The resignation of a federal employee must be voluntary. I highly doubt failure to respond to this email---sent on a Saturday---would be understood by any court to be a voluntary resignation.

In every single interview I’ve done with international media since Trump took power I’ve been asked: Why are there no mass protests? There are many reasons, of course, but the utter refusal of the self-proclaimed “fourth estate” to communicate clearly what is happening has to be high on the list.

what the moment calls for is fighters instead of gormless boobs who should have retired 30 years ago. policy differences can be hashed out later, everyone can agree that Musk and Trump must be stopped and democracy restored
