I was ripped to shreds on #CNN for standing up for the safety of the American military before Hegseth was hired. Told I was a “disgrace” who should be “ashamed of myself”, berated through the commercial break and threatened with defamation. Look where we are now.

It occurs to me that not everyone knows how to get to Sugarbush, the ski resort JD Vance is visiting. It’s a great mountain, but even if you don’t ski, it’s a beautiful drive to get there, especially on a clear day like tomorrow. You can get directions here. You’re welcome!

Worth noting that when the war started Zelensky’s English was very shaky and he’s clearly spent a ton of time improving it for exactly this purpose.

I’m glad this happened. Now the entire world knows once and for all that Trump & Vance stand with Putin.

Americans are so obsessed with making legal arguments about everything. Lol those don't mean shit now. Laws are useless w/o enforcement. When you have an executive branch that refuses to enforce the law, the verbal games about legality are laughable at best.

Why I'm annoyed by those who praise China w/o policy specifics. (Hint: It's dangerous to let politicians, especially a certain someone, pick which part of the Chinese system they want to copy.) www.youtube.com/watch?v=hxGk...

New evidence has emerged from The Insider that Russia did indeed offer bounties to kill US and coalition troops in Afghanistan. A reminder that Trump downplayed and protected Russia in 2020 when the NYT broke the story

Meiselas: I’m speaking to the union worker who voted for Trump. Now your job is gone, your family is less safe, prices are higher, and your government aid is frozen. When you sit at the table with your family, what are you telling them?

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too. Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more. Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

I think the White House spelled "outrage" wrong.

"America will stay free because of our tradition..." Sorry to break this to you, but that tradition is exactly why Americans take freedom for granted. Your parents and grandparents never told you what a dictator can do, so you have a knowledge deficiency. You need more homework than other people.

Ronald Reagan won the 1980 election against Jimmy Carter in part because he got Iran to agree not to release the Americans it was holding hostage until Reagan could take credit for their release. He was willing to risk their lives to win. When Republicans say "America first," they mean "me first."

Well, this is interesting. It looks like one of the groups approved to disburse Missouri tax money to private religious schools is using half of the money for administrative costs and payroll. School choice is a scam.

A big reason I try to move folks to follow me on Substack? I have access to your email address. I would never abuse that privilege. If everything fell apart on the social apps, I could still speak to you directly. I hope you’ll consider following me there too. jesspiper.substack.com

95% of jobs in the U.S. require a background check. But Sen Bill Hagerty (TN) is on TV this morning saying that Trump’s Cabinet nominees shouldn’t be forced to have one? Absolutely not. Call your Senators & demand full FBI checks. Americans want to feel safe & we won’t be with an unvetted Cabinet.

Seem to be a lot of very emotional people characterising this as doomsaying. If you don't know the fight you are in you have no chance of winning. This is the class war the billionaires have been waging for damn near 100 years. They just now feel comfortable enough to let the mask slip.
