It never wriggles.

NYT John McWhorter: "'Staying woke' meant understanding that there are larger forces operating to keep power unequally distributed in our society, disfavoring especially the poor and people of color." BS. Woke meant being hip to oppression. Like McWhorter's. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/20/o...

He's so dumb. The title is Czar, Czar Vladimir. Or Tsar if you want to hide its root in "caesar." He apparently can't think while he's on his knees.

America’s Vice-President, JD Vance’s comments this week on democracy ring nicely to the ear of some, but are off key on the musical score of facts.

Trump laid off DOE at Hanford, the largest, most expensive clean-up ever. There's nuke waste seeping into groundwater and old tanks ripe for explosion. DOE has been understaffed for years, and now a skeleton crew is in charge of this ticking, nuclear time bomb. www.counterpunch.org/2024/08/22/o...

Sign at Tesla dealership in #SanFrancisco reads, "We Hate Him Too."

Dept. of Hiding in Plain Sight: Disbarred Trump consigliere John Eastman's *2006* report for Heritage Foundation laying out a legal attack on birthright citizenship that goes far beyond children of undocumented persons to establish a president/king's power to take citizenship away from... anyone. 1/

I just met a group of young people, cousins, from Honduras on a highway in San Cristóbal de las casas. They're asking people passing by in cars and motos for money to cover their rented room near the immigration offices

The first ambitious Republican to stand up against Trump?

NEWS Before she resigned, the Acting US Attorney for SDNY wrote an eight page letter to Attorney General Pam Bondi about the Eric Adams case. In that letter, she said that Eric Adams’ attorneys said the Mayor would help the DOJ with enforcement if his case was dismissed. Must Read Letter!

So we sued Elon Musk, DOGE, and the Office of Personnel Management on behalf of the two million government employees whose personal information was unlawfully disclosed. This is a suit for injunctive relief to stop the bleeding. More to come later storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Breece D'J Pancake was great. Of that entire generation that emerged during the early MFA stampede he was the best and he never belonged among them.

The closure of CFPB highlights the grand lie at the heart of DOGE. CFPB is cheap to run & delivers billions to victims of corporate scams. It’s the definition of value for money. But X & Meta hate it because it targets big tech fraud. DOGE is not about waste. It’s about enriching the oligarchy.

First half, stupor bowl: Chiefs were prepared to and fiercely did shut down the run. Eagles were prepared to and fiercely did shut down the pass.

I been there.

Am I so round with you, as you with me, That like a football you do spurn me thus?

In the USA where i live we have the professional sports team the A's. Possibly the only defensible use of the misconstruction. Not that anyone else even noticed.

Kendrick Lamar is signed to Interscope. Interscope is owned by Universal Music Group. Universal Group, one of the three remaining mainstream labels, is majority owned by Vivendi, Tencent, Pershing Square, and the Bolloré family, which got its start making thin cigarette paper.

“A new analysis by independent automotive blog FuelArc suggests that fire fatalities are 17 times more likely in a Cybertruck than in the infamous Ford Pinto — the posterchild deadly cars if ever there was one.”

Another of musk's youth turns out to have a shady past, this one for leaking secrets. Particularly important given that he has unlawfully been given access to the private information of all government employees www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

One Roberts clerk, one former Gorsuch clerk, and one future Gorsuch clerk. All working for DOGE to help Musk usurp the government. Like I wrote earlier today, the courts are not going to stop this.

We’ve reached that terminal point of imperial decay when the highest ambition of most members of Congress is to be a sycophant.
