Folks if you hadn't already ditched Sticker Mule because of the owner's fascism, then this might be another reason [gift link] - www.timesunion.com/business/art...

We absolutely should not be paying federal taxes at this point.

We had the reporter on tonight; @maddow has the whistleblower

The future is a web of branching paths, and each choice opens up new possibilities as it closes others. This is as true for a civilization as it is for an individual. The more our collective intelligence can inform each choice, the better our chances of finding paths through to a beautiful future.

So close.

I never imagined that the most dangerous moment in America's democracy would also be its stupidest.

Actually, quite flattering.

From Fox’s Chief National Security reporter. Who can’t seem to get any airtime lately. For some reason.

The first rule of Trumpism is to never apologize or admit wrongdoing. That’s why he’s not firing anyone or even entertaining the idea anybody around him did something wrong.

I learned this week that you can put our troops' lives in danger, compromise our national security, and violate the Espionage Act. And the government will do nothing. But if you write an editorial for your school newspaper that Trump doesn't like, you will be abducted on the street and disappeared.

Only drones can begin to capture the scale of destruction in the Gaza Strip. The journalists doing it were targeted again and again.

Not getting much attention, but the Senate GOP is about to start voting - to make sure banks can charge higher overdraft fees. Seriously. Good time to let your Senators know what you think of that.

Kudos @theatlantic for doing what most of your peers would never ever do.

Happy One Month Anniversary to this story.

JUST IN: American Oversight is suing Hegseth, Gabbard, Ratcliffe et al, saying their messaging via Signal is a violation of the Federal Records Act. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

No maga Nazis engage in actual thought or debate on any issue. Ever. They’re not interested in anything other than kneeling to the king. Only engage them to troll them.

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

Right now there are a lot of new eyes on Signal, and not all of them are familiar with secure messaging and its nuances. Which means there’s misinfo flying around that might drive people away from Signal and private communications. 1/

🔑 under-discussed point — why they were on signal:

Trump just signed an executive order banning vote by mail and ordering the defunding of any state that does not follow through with it as well as engage in massive voter roll purges. There won't be free and fair elections ever again. If you're waiting for 2026, it's already too late.

is that bad? Seems bad

Frankly, unless it’s planning for war, I don’t want to hear anyone’s opinions on much of anything. It’s just all so irrelevant now.

Pete Hegseth: "Hey, front desk, can I get a wakeup call for 10:30AM? I need to get up super early because we are secretly bombing Yemen tomorrow at 1PM. And could you have someone send up another bottle of Scotch? Thanks."

Collins: Do you think someone should be fired over this? Buttigieg: Absolutely… if there’s not accountability for a screw up like this, especially from a president who used to fire people on television for sport, what are we even doing here..
