Again: tech journalism is meeting this moment in a way the mainstream establishment newspapers and cable channels just aren’t. I can’t emphasize enough what a big deal this is.

I've been looking for a report like this www.nytimes.com/2025/02/22/u...

$200 million taxpayer dollars spent on “tell me I’m pretty” ads to stroke his own ego, while he fires people to “save money.” Sociopathic.

By accepting Trump’s anti-Black premise and regurgitating the narrative that equates anything Black as DEI, the NY Times has become part of the propaganda machine

Oh look… Krasnov got paid.

Trump’s Pentagon purge has included the top military lawyers. Nobody should be surprised. Dictators politicize the military. Trump wants those with the biggest guns loyal to him, not the Constitution He says he’s demilitarizing it. I call BS. Orwellian to the core. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

"Only 34% approve of what Musk is doing Only 26% are OK with him shutting down govt programs And a whopping 63% don’t like Musk’s marauders gaining access to federal government databases containing Social Security, Medicare and tax information" www.azcentral.com/story/opinio...

And they thought it was just about the price of Eggs 🥚

A thin-skinned wannabe dictator spends our tax dollars to thank himself. What a fucking loser! apple.news/AOTemmT96Q1u...

Idiocracy was a documentary

We need facts as never before. 3 years after Putin invaded Ukraine, I spent 24 hours with combat medics on the Ukrainian frontline. Their courage, compassion, dedication & skill are astounding. Please read & please never stop standing up for Ukraine. 🇺🇦 www.theguardian.com/world/2025/f...

Extortion, pure and simple.

Governments typically target specific groups – such as religious minorities, certain races or ethnicities, or migrants – for surveillance and use the information gathered to “contain” these populations, for example by arresting and imprisoning people.

This is bad… purging the military of leaders who are not swarn to Trump and replacing them with those that will allow Trump to use the army to protect his coup.

Canada wins…

Remember when America had friends? Like a month ago?

Rich McCormick is obviously avoiding his constituents while his Communications Director offers flimsy excuses on his behalf www.tiktok.com/t/ZT2PPAwDu/

THIS is an amazing example of a #TruthBomb: tiny actions (i.e. local news) that deeply affects the big picture. If you've already been to a #TruthBomb zoom presentation, we invite you to a Slack training, our HQ for working together, and creating TBs together. www.mobilize.us/civicsundays...

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

Thank you, Janet Mills. This is how all our elected officials everywhere should be confronting Trump's authoritarian "we are the law" sentiment. Head on.

There have never been kings in America. The monarchy doesn't start now.

Iowa pollster Ann Selzer filed an absolutely blistering response to Trump’s lawsuit against her and Des Moines Register, calling it a flagrant attempt to circumvent the First Amendment. www.thefire.org/sites/defaul...

Peace plan.

Thanks for this @SykesCharlie.bsky.social. And fuck all these GOP congresspeople who are “privately” panicking over what Musk & Trump are doing. It’s always PRIVATELY with them. They’ve told me PRIVATELY for years they’re sick of Trump. Fuck their PRIVATE anguish. They’re all cowards.

Please, please, please pay attention to this. A Republican Rep getting booed by his Republican constituents bcuz he supports what Musk/Trump are doing. And these are Republican voters who are not happy with what Musk/Trump are doing. Pay attention. This is just the beginning.👇

The leading liberal democracies of the world are going to have to forge a new alliance for mutual economic and military benefit. The US won’t be included.

Apparently the gutting of the National Science Foundation is underway at the moment. "More to come." One can debate whether cuts are warranted, but the mindless, know-nothing fashion in which they are being carried out is inexcusable. This will damage US science for generations.
