Ruhle: Do you consider yourselves left-wing media? Jordy Meiselas: We cast a big umbrella here, and more so than anything, I consider ourselves unapologetically pro-democracy. If you're pro-Constitution, pro-upholding norms, and pro-democracy, there's a spot for you on our roster.

This doesn’t exist and will literally save $0

A Russian delegation has arrived in Istanbul for negotiations with the US on embassy operations. The talks will be closed to the press. The composition of the delegations has not been disclosed.

On this 3d year anniversary of Russia’s illegal invasion of Ukraine, I’m reposting this article from April 2022 reflecting on my observations of the two armies involved in the fight. We must continue support for Ukraine. www.thebulwark.com/p/i-commande...

Billionaire Jeff Bezos, who owns the Post, says the newspaper's editorial section will publish columns only "in support and defense of two pillars: personal liberties and free markets." By @davidfolkenflik.bsky.social

🔥 CROCKETT: “Facts matter.”

Colorado's Rep Brittany Pettersen (D) flew cross-country with her one-month-old to vote against the GOP budget tonight. Dems ended up one vote short. Pettersen was part of an unsuccessful bipartisan push to allow new mothers to vote remotely. #copolitics

Complete batshit lunacy on the president's Truth Social account. Yes, he really posted this.

It’s getting to point where the comparison is unfair to North Korea.

White House official pushes to axe Canada from Five Eyes intelligence group. Alienating our friends and courting our enemies. This is straight out of Orwell.

Nice work!

You should be fundamentally mistrustful of a political movement that despises investigative journalists and writers while loving pundits and talking heads

Put me out of my misery.

The best way to confront a bully about the misinformation he is spreading is to confront him in front of everyone. Macron just did that.

New — HHS just got another email with guidance stating that they aren’t required to respond to the 5 bullets email, but if they do they should follow specific guidelines including: “Assume that what you write will be read by malign foreign actors and tailor your response accordingly.”

A federal judge in Maryland issued a temporary restraining order on Monday, blocking members of Elon Musk’s so-called Department of Government Efficiency team and anyone “working on the DOGE agenda at the Department of Education” from accessing sensitive data until March 10.

Friedrich Merz, Germany's new chancellor, pledged support for Ukraine will be a top priority for his government and that it must "win the war". "Victory means restoring territorial integrity" and "we are not neutral, we are not standing aside. We are on the side of Ukraine.” #GermanElection #CDU

The heartbreak. Trump claims USAID is bankrupting America—it’s less than 1% of the budget. Meanwhile, the world’s richest man, Elon Musk, is gutting the largest food aid provider. He could end world hunger & still be the richest man alive. But he won’t. Not just greed. We’re watching evil at work.

One of the quietest, most reasoned and entirely adept colleagues I ever enjoyed. Dennis was a perfect professional, but almost too rational a creature for a newsroom. His memory, a blessing. www.baltimoresun.com/2025/02/23/d...

And I am an ally. If you are too, let the world know.

It took ten years, but the NYT finally got there

If any of our former NATO or Five Eyes allies have intelligence data and assessments, which surely they must, about the background of the leader of their new strategic adversary, the United States, now is as good a time as any to release them, subject to protection of methods and sources, of course.

Country's divorced.

As former GOP Congresswoman Liz Cheney so eloquently said in a January 6th Committee hearing, “To my Republican colleagues who are defending the indefensible: There will come a time when Donald Trump is gone. But your dishonor will remain.” #ResistTrump

"Tesla said it was recalling 376,000 of its electric vehicles in the U.S., due to a failure of the power steering assist feature that could make the vehicles harder to steer, particularly at low speeds, raising the risk of a crash. Tesla shares fell 3%."

Judge Ho getting right to the heart of the complex, unique and consequential legal issues here and appointing Paul Clemente (who had been appointed by a Republican as SG - not the people who asked to be involved) to brief them. Very smart and very judicial search.app/VaNHRBdCHYQC...

@mcuban.bsky.social negotiation?

AOC: And he is running around because he thinks he got a bank account with a lot of zeros in it that it makes him some kind of super citizen. I don't think so.

Federal workers launch a new site to share inside information about DOGE

I heard someone compare Trump’s mass firings to him being a bull in a china shop. I disagree. Trump is a like a bull in a VA hospital. Trump is like a bull in an assisted living facility. Trump is like a bull in an Alzheimer’s research center. Trump is like a bull in a NICU.

BRAVO to Maine Governor Janet Mills for slapping petty tyrant trump in the face with her calmly defiant "see you in court." THIS IS HOW IT'S DONE. 🔥🔥🔥

This is how it’s done.
