Unfortunately, in US journalism it is considered neutral to spread a lie, but it is considered "biased" to call out a lie. So, there is a structural asymmetry that rewards colorful lies with virality.

Let’s be clear: these are extrajudicial killings. “Kill them all” Hegseth needs to be held accountable.

What’s more, Trump promised the American people no new wars but is now manufacturing this conflict & lying about his motives.

This warmongering has got to stop.
Hegseth order on first Caribbean boat strike, officials say: Kill them all
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth issued a verbal order to kill all crew members in the Sept. 2 strike on a suspected drug boat. Navy SEALs fired a second missile.

Getting ready for three December Days when the autocrat launches a war of aggression against a nation across the southern sea.
"Surely a quick, violent, successful war of aggression is just what the ruler needs to shore up his legitimacy," said just about every failed monarch in history shortly before invading Serbia.
Creating a military conflict with Venezuela gives this administration a legal "hook" to invoke the Alien Enemies Act. In other words, the foreign war is being manufactured in order to facilitate court deference for its domestic mass deportation policy. It's a Stephen Miller Special.

"Western civilization," the font, the 11 stars - 11 states in the confederacy, for the record.

Why is this never news? Why are we letting our government agencies do this sort of thing while the news agencies report on hallucinated trade deals and act like everything is normal

Russia is pure evil. Georgia, Ukraine, always destroying places and people.

Europe needs to take the money instead of obsessing about it.

Take it out of Trumps hands

Indeed. The "Western Civilization" they like is Nero, Columbus, and Hitler at the apex of their power.

They hate all the rest of it, especially the art, philosophy, and democracy. Hence stuff like their confusion and outrage when the Olympic ceremonies included the Olympian God of Festivals.
It is odd to me that, like, you'd think it'd be parody if you said: to be clear, they only like the bad bits of Western Civilisation -- but that turns out to be true. They like the rapacious imperial murder, but not the art or intellectual achievements or civil liberties, etc.
i mean what are these "western values" these guys are so hopped up about? they are directly antagonistic to western europe. they don't believe in civil liberties. they reject democracy. and don't get me started on christianity, they hate their white neighbors almost as much as the brown ones

Next Dem admin should kick out any member of the press pool that went to Columbia or Northwestern.
Columbia and Northwestern are the academic homes to the most prestigious journalism schools in the country and they are the two universities that caved to the Trump administration’s extortion demands that are directly connected to the First Amendment. Just gonna sit with that for a while.

Literally stole their name for a service-member from the forgettable live-service shooter Destiny, its flag from Starfleet when their mission is fairly antithetical to the United Federation of Planets, and uniforms from Starship Troopers (ok, that one actually fits).
Also the guy who decided that the demonym for the space force should be "guardian" should be shot

Seems like a weird thing to tweet on the day when your boss said he’d pardon someone convicted of sending 400 tons of cocaine into the US.
seems suboptimal

A fair bargain for the higher ed ecosystem, in my view, is build a world class public university system that costs $0 to attend and let the Ivy+ schools go back to being (mostly) finishing schools for rich kids.

The next administration needs to seriously rewire higher ed funding in this country to prioritize public 2 and 4 year schools.
BREAKING: Northwestern University has agreed to pay the U.S. Treasury $75 million, over the course of three years as part of an agreement with the federal government to restore funding and end investigations into the university

trump will pardon or assist any head of state who has been convicted for crimes. acting out of self preservation, basically
WHOA. Trump says he will pardon Juan Orlando Hernandez, who once said that he wanted to “shove the drugs right up the noses of the gringos.” He had people killed as part of his narco-trafficking ring, which he at times operated directly out of his presidential office.

They should strip the funding from these schools and redirect the funds to schools who didn’t cower when D’s are back in power.

Right, the answer to the question “can the president issue a valid pardon for the assassins he sent to successfully kill the Congress that was impeaching him” has to be no or the underlying structure of the Constitution makes no sense
i think that we should charge even people who have been pardoned, because there is no conceivable way the founders intended the pardon power to permit the executive to order people to commit crimes and then pardon them for them

We are blowing up foreign boats and extrajudicially killing people in the name of stopping drugs, but Trump is happy to pardon a corrupt ex-president charged with drug trafficking.

What lies at the root of both the grifters and ideologues, is a realization that attempting to recreate the United States' old racial hierarchies or burn a new white ethnostate out of it, is simply catastrophically unpopular to the point that an authoritarian regime would be required to enforce it.
