Three of the best journalistic entities that are covering all this nonsense right are a parody newspaper, a teen mag, and a magazine for nerds, and I am grateful for them (The Onion, Teen Vogue, and Wired)

I see the Washington Post is platforming an op-ed by Krisi Noem, because apparently they're still pissed they missed their opportunity to publish Goebbels in the original German.

Really wishing the people spending billions, wasting countless gallons of water & emiting deadly amounts of greenhouse gases & waste heat to build photorealistic image & video fabricators had spared even half a thought for hard coding identification marking techniques into the generation process.

Iran says it feels "betrayed" by man who previously stole from kids with cancer, scammed war widows and seniors at a fake university, took no responsibility for hundreds of thousands of preventable deaths during Covid and just killed 350,000 people by shuttering USAID www.nytimes.com/2025/06/22/w...

A federal officer cannot be “doxxed.” The public has a right to know who is operating in our government, especially if they have the power to imprison someone.

Since 2016, all I have done is assume that everything the White House says they won't do, or accuse someone else of doing, will be something they have already done or will do. It's a 100% success rate on this.

So, what have we learned. We have no money for U.S. citizens for schools, medical care, food, or quality of life issues. We do, however, have money for missiles, unprovoked wars, and for kidnapping people off the street. We have also learned that one party is evil incarnate and the other is useless.

Seems significant somehow that the thing that would most energize the Democratic base is if approximately 90-99% of currently elected Democrats were to be primaried into retirement.

Today in particular I’m just so glad Merrick Garland prioritized “norms” over the U.S. constitution, our republic, and any hope of saving our democracy. Otherwise we might have run the risk of a functioning government. I hope Garland knows that—along with Mitch—cowardice will always be his legacy.

Pretty amazing that a former president will sit quietly as one of his successors orders US troops into American cities and ships innocent people off to concentration camps—but feels compelled to speak up when a fellow HR nightmare is at risk of losing to another member of the same party.

Wild to watch the Democratic Party rallying to push back what they perceive as a threat to order. It turns out they do have it in them to speak out and act with one voice, just not over what we need them to in order to save our country.
