And when asked if this were true, Gabbard replied. “Da. Spasiba.”

I know we all have disaster fatigue, but the reason why historic LA fires get so much coverage is because there are more people in greater LA county than in *most US states*

At the VERY LEAST, since he accomplished nothing else to hold the leaders of this accountable, Merrick Garland needs to release the damn report and stop being afraid of his own shadow. Weak people all over this Admin is part of what got us here.

👀 Praxis is a Thiel-backed “network state” project that aims to build its OWN COUNTRY. In Nov, Praxis founder Dryden Brown wrote about wanting Greenland 4 Praxis. In Dec, Trump named Thiel partner Ken Howery as ambassador to Denmark & said the US shld buy Greenland. Praxis & Dryden are thrilled...1/

The devastation on its way is unimaginable - like nothing humanity has ever witnessed before - and everyone will wish they had been climate activists and ‘hysterics’ when they had the chance. We are in a moment of unprecedented stupidity

Trump is a master at leveraging the legacy media’s need for news with his ability to provide access to it. He did this for years as a fixture on the New York scene and he continues it today. A weakened legacy media, with greater pressures on it, is simply no match for an emboldened Trump.

ABC News can fuck all the way off for settling with Trump and paying him $15M. The Judge called it rape. E. Jean Carroll called it rape. Not only did ABC bow down to a fascist, they minimized survivors everywhere. Discovery matters, cowards! 👇🏼

Thank you Ron. And THIS is why I watch Meidas Touch now. And other independent news. They are such a closed circle, they really don't know how DEEPLY disconnected they are to ANYTHING in US public life. And I used to live there. They don't know much beyond their own world.

Still not over the fact that the man who could be in charge of our health has stocked roadkill in his fridge, had a worm in his brain, is anti-vax, suggested we consume raw milk (despite a raw milk bird flu outbreak) and spoke positively about hardcore drugs. Like. What the fuck?

DJT: The man who turned the White House into a reality TV show. Every policy is a punchline, each tweet a tantrum, and the American Dream is just another episode to be canceled. His legacy? A nation more divided, a democracy dented, and a truth so twisted it might as well be fiction.

New in PN: Tulsi Gabbard and Trump's scheme to gut the intel agencies "It’s easy to see why Trump sees value in putting a stake in the heart of the intelligence agencies. From his perspective, the risk they'll uncover wrongdoing by him, or the authoritarian leaders he identifies with, is too great"

“He judged everything from the perspective of the property entrepreneur he had been before politics."

Read it. The conclusion is that we're not going to stop Trump, and he's not wrong, we're going to survive Trump. And it's going to be a disaster for our federal government, our economy, our citizens, our military, our intelligence services, the rule of law and on and on. But if we fight, we survive
