Who could have guessed that the former leader of the Proud Boys—convicted of sedition because of January 6th—would, after Trump pardoned him, start to harass the hero cops of January 6th? Who could ever have guessed it? (This went down at the Principles First conference in D.C.)

For those who missed it, Paul Krugman, Nobel Laureate and long-time NYTimes columnist on economics, left the Times for Substack because the NYTimes, the bastion of freedom asked him to be more conservative. In other words, they didn't want facts, they wanted conservative facts.

Most people probably aren’t tracking this but Senate Republicans just started an all-night voting marathon that will allow them to gut Medicaid and increase child hunger while giving handouts to billionaires like Elon Musk.

If you’re going to force me to look at Nazi salutes by using them as the images for the articles you publish, have the fucking decency to call it what it is. Provocative gesture? Literally what the fuck is wrong with you.

Russia has been planning this coup for a long time. Putin is finally getting his revenge for the USSR's collapse. It was always personal for him. As Nikita Khrushchev said in 1956: “We will take America without firing a shot. We do not have to invade the U.S. We will destroy you from within”.

Delta Airlines really needs to remove Fox News from its inflight streaming. A woman in the row in front of me watched it nonstop for three hours and EVERY segment I caught the headline for was lies, misinformation, and disinformation. It was a travesty.

How does firing Americans help make America great again? Cutting 5-8% of the workers is unproductive and harmful to our economy and society. This is just simply reckless and unsustainable. www.cnn.com/2025/02/21/p...

It was only a matter of time before car manufacturers started running commercials on their infotainment systems as a means of extorting money to remove them. This is annoying, intrusive and distracting - and should be illegal. fortune.com/2025/02/13/j...

My grocery bill was so high it gave me an immediate hot flash! It’s 25 degrees outside so I rushed the groceries to the car but now I am frozen to the bone. I managed to return my cart, but holy cow, I think I have icicles at the nape of my neck?! Perimenopause isn’t for the faint of heart.

Why the hell can’t these editors see the twisted, tortured, mess they have made by trying to please ‘both sides’ on every issue. It’s IMPOSSIBLE! One side supports hacks and conspiracies and has no morality or core values, one side does the job for the public. www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

So they removed the black chairman of the Joint Chiefs in the middle of his 4-year tour, without cause, and they're seeking to replace him with a white retired Air Force three-star general who lacks the requisite experience as a service chief or combatant commander? Huh, how about that

Side note. There are eight members of the joint chiefs. the chair is black. the CNO (navy) is a woman. the other six are white guys. chair and the cno got fired tonight.

America's greatest force multiplier and global strength has been its network of allies. Popular lore now sees them as a burden. So America is killing its alliances. The Trump-Musk-Vance administration's moves are an act of epic self-harm.
