If the rest of nato would show the courage to actually follow through on this concept it would be incredibly effective. Stand up to the bully and he’ll run away scared.

I’ve been off FB and Insta for nearly 2 months but I’d love to catch up on some info I’ve missed. This might be a reasonable way to jump on once in a while knowing that I’m not helping meta.

To the DOJ/FBI who remain, Your new bosses are going to order you to do unconstitutional things. Unlawful things. Things to achieve their fascist agenda. Claiming "you were only following orders" did not cut it at the Nuremberg trials. It will not work here either. Proceed accordingly. America

Senators Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, Joni Ernst, etc: You’ve seen Hegseth, RFK Jr, and others give worthless assurances. You’re now seeing the US appease Putin, and DOJ guardrails crumble. Are you going to let Kash Patel use the FBI against his enemies list and further destroy the rule of law?

"No doubt the Russians who voted in 1990 did not think that this would be the last free and fair election in their country’s history, which (thus far) it has been. Any election can be the last, or at least the last in the lifetime of the person casting the vote." Timothy Snyder

If you're going to a No Kings protest tomorrow, remember: 1) It's easier to carry a sign for a long time if you attach it to a stick. 2) Some cities have very specific regulations about stick size (heeee hee hee), not that they are looking for an excuse to break up protests or anything.

The irony of the richest man in the world almost single-handedly destroying an agency designed to help the world’s poor, so that the U.S. federal budget has more room for another giant tax cut for the richest man in the world and his pals, should not be lost on anyone. [Cartoon by Mike Luckovich]

The problem is that as Covid proved, objective reality doesn’t just go away because you wish it does. When shit goes wrong - and shit always goes wrong - the staff cuts and incompetence and malevolence will lead to catastrophe. Maybe sooner rather than later

When I heard Musk say this on Tuesday, my assumption was that it was a programming issue. Because I can code and have written to databases and because I am familiar with other examples of default values being misinterpreted. Yet somehow Musk isn't.

It’s clear to me that the 🍑💩 is staffing the government with the most incompetent people so when things blow up in their agencies he can put all the blame on them and those who approved them. Yet he’ll get the benefit of destroying those departments.

OK, I wrote my “who’s going to enforce it?” piece. It’s a lengthy read, trying to respond to a lot of questions I’ve gotten over the past three weeks, but it’s about democracy so I decided it was worth it to lay out in depth, with examples, what I’ve been talking about here and elsewhere.

Reminder that just liking a post on here means the original sender is the ONLY ONE who sees it. You have to repost it so the everyone sees what the person said. Do both things PLEASE otherwise information gets sucked into a vacuum where it gets no traction.
