James Buchanan blew up the Union in defense of slavery and then let his own Secretary of War assist in the lame duck preparations for treason, and Andrew Johnson was a drunken white supremacist who effectively revolted against Congress, and still neither of them were ever so nakedly lawless.
This is the most corrupt, lawless administration in the history of the United States and there’s no close second.

Marjorie Taylor Greene was never going to change her stripes.
She’s still a hateful, spiteful racist.

It’s that remarkable kind of charisma where you know that he didn’t fuck the couch but it wouldn’t matter if he did, because he’s an inherent couchfucker.
not so much uncharismatic as anticharismatic. all the charisma within a 10 mile radius ups and leaves as soon as he starts speaking.

Gov Walz is saying what we’ve been saying. If the president is this erratic, then the public deserves to know what is going on. Four simple words: show the MRI results.
If Trump is fine, prove it. If he isn’t, step aside.

Even without the surveillance, a smart ring is a bad idea. I was interested in getting one for sleep tracking until I read about what happens if the battery expands. It gets tighter and tighter on your finger and you can’t cut the ring off because it will literally explode.

Every single congressional Democrat needs to be out there, right now, insisting that Pete Hegseth resign right now and announcing that he will be held accountable for committing war crimes.
If you do not demand accountability here and now, they will only become more emboldened.

‘Remigration’ is a term that comes out of the European far right. Its use by the DHS account is a sign of democratic and epistemic collapse

For all the mistakes that Comey made trying to politically triangulate his way through things he was absolutely right that we need those who have the power of the state to impose life and death look directly at what can happen when that power is misused.

Can’t wait to have John Roberts say out loud that only Republican presidents can never be convicted for crimes.
Trump announces he will terminate any "Any document signed by Sleepy Joe Biden with the Autopen," and says "Joe Biden was not involved in the Autopen process and, if he says he was, he will be brought up on charges of perjury."

Here’s the thing: if you treat all soldiers as intrinsically war criminals, you rob the notion of “war crime” of any meaning. It’s all simply war - which is exactly how people who order war crimes want you to think.
