Nancy MacLean has unearthed a stealth ideologue of the American right. . . . [A] little-known figure [who] has had a massive impact on the ideology of the far right. None other than Charles Koch looked to Buchanan’s theories for inspiration. —BillMoyers.com, a.co/ePC3run

When social media sites allow misinformation like @clover.79.bsky.social posts below to remain in its site it is really no different than Musks X. The fact is the picture is a flat out lie and disinformation of the kind that kills children. jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

I'm about to drop a piece at The Atlantic on this Pentagon purge. As I warned, Trump is capturing Justice, Intelligence, the military. This is praetorianism, pure and simple.

The premise of American foreign policy to Ukraine, today, is one of grievance. It is worth patiently considering the proposals. They reveal little about Ukraine, but much about America in February 2025. snyder.substack.com/p/recoup-the...

Beware all BlueSky users, this account is fake and impersonating Ebizo to scam unaware users. He is telling people to buy $1000 Apple Cards and then send him screenshots while promising VIP seats to Ebizo's shows.

Cultural xenophobia is a frequent sequel to a society’s decline from cultural vigor. a.co/6umbLzs

Unsettled times (mappo) require a diamond-like mind of crosswise transcendence.

💯 Americans opposed to the early actions of Trump and his allies, including ally Elon Musk, took to the streets in protest across the country.

💯 “Like a schoolyard bully who’s afraid of his peers, Trump is tough on #Canada but weak on #Russia,” writes the columnist David French. “And that weakness may not just cost #Ukraine its independence; it could set the stage for a cataclysm.”

Flying to SFO to catch flight to Osaka. Met a most fascinating fellow. He saw the title and commented, "Timely read." Some conversation starter and Rayan Atallah is one highly aware broadly educated fellow.

And for decades this is what has drawn the best scientific minds from around the world to America. Not anymore if this sustained anti-intellectual attack upon science and scientific knowledge continues.

When, not if, the next pandemic hits Americans will pay a steep price for abdicating their democracy to right-wing extremists who push baseless conspiracy theories over sound science.

Europe can’t rely on the strength of the transatlantic relationship to help contain Russia’s threat – it must lead from the front and be the true force of support that Ukraine needs. Not just for Ukraine’s sake, but for a free and sovereign Europe.

💩The Trump administration has suggested to Ukraine that the U.S. be granted 50% ownership of the country’s rare earth minerals, and signaled an openness to deploying American troops there to guard them if there’s a deal with Russia to end the war, four U.S. officials say.

In some areas of the United States measles outbreaks are already happening. As fewer and fewer people vaccinate the risk grows that old childhood diseases once controlled will once again kill children. People are going to die.

Congratulations to rightwing anti-vax forces: you've reintroduced a deadly, vaccine preventable disease back into American society.

Stand with science. Always.

I want all the fascist collaborators in the federal government snitching on their colleagues to know: we're watching you, and we're keeping lists.

"Mama always said Kristi Noem is like a box of chocolates; they'll both kill your dog."

Why does a 38-year old U.S. Attorney in SDNY, who is also a die hard conservative, have more guts and integrity than the entirety of the GOP Senate Conference combined?! Shame on the shameless sycophants and enablers there, who can’t find the spine to stand up to common MAGA bullies.

The leopards are eating faces, and people who were only told by everyone alive on Earth that that would happen are steamed about it They were railroaded! Yes—everyone on Earth told them this would happen—but what about all the people on Mars, Venus and Proxima Centuri! Why did they hide the truth!

Trump has turned America over to a White Supremacists South African immigrant racist whose family idolized Nazis. www.npr.org/2025/02/08/n...
