“The mob doesn’t want to be fed, it wants to hunt. And once you’re a target, it doesn’t matter what you did before. It doesn’t matter how loyal you were. You’re just another goat to be devoured.”

MTG helped build that mob. Now she’s discovering what everyone else already knew.

I think we can safely say that the Leavitt's brother called ICE on his ex, the mother of his child, and I have to say: I have no desire to respect, find common ground or share the country with these monsters.
“After Ferreira was detained, Dos Santos Rodrigues said Michael Leavitt Sr. and his father, Bob Leavitt, reached out to her.”

“‘They just kept saying, ‘Tell her to self-deport,’” she recalled. “Self-deport to where? Brazil is not her home.’” www.bostonglobe.com/2025/11/26/m...
‘Brazil is not her home.’ Mother of Karoline Leavitt’s nephew, brought to US as child, detained by ICE. - The Boston Globe
Bruna Ferreira, 33, was brought to the United States as a child in 1998. She is now in removal proceedings in Louisiana.

i think tech and ai positive people are going to be in for a big shock when anti tech and anti ai sentiment becomes a major part of leftwing politics going forward especially as datacenters continue to destroy communities and raise electricity bills
Is this platform still massively against AI or has it moved more towards acceptance?

Spoiler: Definitely not legal. Over/under on Hegseth fleeing the country first?!
Breaking news: In the past 10 months, the Trump administration has pushed for lethal strikes on Western Hemisphere drug traffickers and repeatedly steamrolled or sidestepped government lawyers who questioned whether the provocative policy was legal.
White House blew past legal concerns in deadly strikes on drug boats
The Trump administration sidestepped skeptical lawyers across national security agencies as it pursued a military campaign against alleged narcotraffickers, officials say.

Just a reminder, “Epstein” is the name of the sex trafficker.

The president is called “Epstein’s monster.”

Ya don’t say….

Maybe telling Black people to stay the fuck out your stores was a bad idea?

And maybe doing everything under the sun EXCEPT fixing that part isn’t going to work!

If you disagree, you’re wrong. That’s just the way it is.
Trump's economy is being held up by a massive AI bubble.

A recent study found that of 300 companies that owned generative AI tools, 95% reported zero return on their investments.

We will not entertain a bailout of these companies should this bubble pop.

I don't believe MTG is humble enough to mean what she's been saying on her 'redemption tour.'

I do believe she smells smoke in the Republicans house as it pertains to Jeffery Epstein and their need to protect a known pedophile.

Where there's smoke, there's fire.

Feels like we're at the stage where Nixon caved to the pressure and released transcripts of the Oval Office recordings, which turned out to have been heavily edited and misleading.

We might be jumping ahead to the 18 1/2 minute erasure, though.

But I'm not sure the 1-to-1 comparison really works?
Attention, historians of Watergate! I'm getting flashbacks from the months of back and forth, reversals and blunders over release of White House records. What stage are we at with the Epstein Files? Drip, drip, drip, as we used to say. @kevinmkruse.bsky.social @hcrichardson.bsky.social
