CNN becomes the first US media outlet to report on Putin's Murmansk speech in which he essentially said "I get Ukraine, Poland and the Baltics, Trump gets Greenland, Panama and Canada." Other US media ignores it.

Confirming, as was obvious from context already, that this wasn’t a one-off. They are routinely using Signal to evade statutory record retention requirements.

A groundbreaking new study found that the surge in SUVs from 1995 to 2019 reduced Minnesota's highway lane capacity by 9.5%. Less lane capacity --> More congestion Me, in CityLab 🧵

🧵"So this is how liberty dies..." Trump’s first 3 weeks have been a relentless flood of actions. It's incredibly hard to keep up. I’ve gone through 69 actions & mapped out the pattern - showing how they fall within 5 broad domains consistent with authoritarian states 1/9

I think we might know where all the missing Dem ballots went This is Ethan Shaotran. He's one of Musk's DOGE takeover hackers 2 yrs ago he won the Berkeley AI Hackathon But in 2000 won the HackGT7 with a ballot altering program called BallotProof Here's the deep dive that he couldn't scrub....

The kid spills the beans

Just an uninteresting video that was made on Election Night starring Elon and his kid. Nothing to see here. Nothing to worry about at all.

1/ Musk seeking control over nerve systems of the federal government. As someone who spent a decade studying how centralized information systems are used for coercion this is a five alarm fire. We need to name it, identify risks, and seek to mitigate their impacts. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/01/u...

2025 has been my least favorite decade so far.

For anyone who hasn't already saved it to their Favorites. It's going to get a lot of use for the foreseeable future.

“I had a feeling that there were people watching what was happening and wondering, Was anyone going to say anything?” Bishop Mariann Budde explained. “Was anyone going to say anything about the turn the country’s taking?” So, she took a breath, and spoke. nyti.ms/3WtmNY2

Pin this, save it, we’ll need it. “When a prison camp opens in your town…when a DREAMer is disappeared from your classroom…when the President destroys what’s left of the Constitution…They will all say they didn’t know this was coming. And I want the American people to know that they did.” AOC 🔥🎯

Coming to a U.S. federal agency near you? BOLO.

Trump's second Presidency is life imitating art — a 1989 fictional prophesy of 2025, in which an ultra-rich cabal causes irrevocable environmental damage then flees the Earth in rocket ships - 'Stark' by Ben Elton independentaustralia.net/politics/pol...

Michael Fanone live on CNN: "This is what I'd say to Stewart Rhodes: Go fuck yourself"

Tesla Gigafactory, Berlin - right now! In cooperation with @ledbydonkeys.org

Elon Musk gave two back to back Nazi salutes at the Trump inauguration parade

No matter where you fall on the TikTok ban, the President undoing by “executive order” a law passed by Congress and upheld unanimously by the Supreme Court is an unconstitutional abuse of power.

READ THIS. THEN READ IT AGAIN.

Hi, I’m God. There is no free speech if only the rich and powerful are allowed to exercise it.

My letter in today's Guardian. Just asking, like. But I think we know the answer.

Great letter in today's Guardian. What sort of free speech is prevented by factchecking, Zuck?

Why are we ignoring the Fourteenth Amendment-Section 3? #NeverForgetJanuary6th

One Cessna 208 (tail# N929NY) departed from Islip, Long Island at 8:50am, landed in Altoona, PA an hour & a half later. That same plane departed Altoona for Islip, LI 2 hours later (10:48am). No other Cessna 208s in the air this morning or afternoon on that path on radar.

Quick update Bluesky: ever wonder why there are no sharp images of these “drones” when many people have good cameras? 👇👇

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer had a very shiny nose. Other signs of his alcoholism included dizziness and chronic reckless behavior.

I missed Mika Brzezinski's very bizarre on air apology for a comment David Frum made on air about Pete Hegseth's drinking. You can watch it in this clip. And it's weird for reasons @joshtpm.bsky.social lays out in this post: talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/whats...

Marjorie Taylor Greene says Republicans will take a look at defunding NPR

Bondi must be asked at her confirmation hearing if Trump lost the election in 2020. Unless her answer is yes, the Senate must reject her nomination. You can't be an election denier & the attorney general joycevance.substack.com/p/gaetz-out

It’s really something to watch the Party whose supporters poop on the floor in the Capitol and wipe their feces on the wall tell us which bathrooms to use.

One of the better things about Bluesky is that there isn't the "@threadreaderapp unroll" post under every thread, even those threads that were only a single post. Those posts were maddening on Twitter.

A lot of people responsible for poor decisions are on a press tour right now because if they didn’t, people would rightfully be questioning THEIR leadership and they know it. It’s weak even by normal left-punching standards. Zero evidence more Liz Cheney would have won this. The opposite, actually.

America.

How long will it take to unfuck everything once Trump is gone? Education, Regulations, Health, civility and society in general.

Imagine destroying the United States of America and all that it has worked and stood for over centuries, for Donald fucking Trump of all people. I guess that he really does represent the worst parts of America.
