Clearly, he cheated & used illegal hit on her back, instead of fighting fair.

Unfair, she can't stand it.

The White House is a National Monument, not just a Govt office building.
"deportation officers"

BREAKING: new racist Republican groupchat has been leaked to Politico featuring texts from Paul Ingrassia, Trump’s nominee to lead the Office of Special Counsel.

Ingrassia’s texts include vile pro-Nazi & racist messages targeting Black people, Chinese people, and Indian people.

In June we warned Ingrassia was unfit to lead the Office of Special Counsel, the agency responsible for protecting whistleblowers and investigating discrimination…
EXCLUSIVE: Embattled Trump nominee Paul Ingrassia told Republicans that the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday should be “tossed into the seventh circle of hell” and that he has “a Nazi streak,” according to a group chat viewed by POLITICO.
Trump nominee says he has a ‘Nazi streak,’ bashes MLK Jr. Day, according to texts

How do the crypto bros justify bragging about crypto security when entire crypto exchanges could disappear into thin air so easily without recourse?

If AWS didn't recover, all the crypto "assets" stored in Coinbase would be gone, right?

With the AWS outage, now‘s as good a time as any to post this old strip.
Oh OK, I was worried that her work would be disrupted.
It breaks my heart just to look at that picture. 😔💔
The East Wing is where the First Lady's offices are.
How can they see fit to conduct live fire exercises over millions of Americans' heads?
Conducting a live fire exercise over a civilian highway is fucking stupid.

It doesn’t really matter if I-5 fell within the minimum acceptable risk threshold for the exercise. Those standards are designed for controlled environments, not civilian highways.
It's been irritating to learn that opinion columnists who kept failing to make accurate analysis haven't apologized for getting it wrong and are still doing similarly erroneous analysis years later.

Lack of accountability lowers the quality of the opinion content a newspaper produces.
Abysmal. Press freedoms are much more eroded than we thought.
To be more human is to be more powerful than the AI machines and their effects.
It is disturbing. For those of us old enough to remember the sheer storm of media criticism after "peal clutching" & "basket of deplorables" to see complete silence on this.

This situation would say it all about the "news" media.
The Trump shit video is basically this, but I will reiterate that if a Dem is critical of conservative voters it’s a generational scandal and when Republican pols literally post themselves shitting on their opposition virtually the entire elite politics and media class treats it as fine and normal
If it leads to the ending the term, it would automatically be the replacement, I think.

NYT forgot to mention that the White House account is the second most blocked account on Bluesky.
I think it's bc they only see the National "news" media coverage & think we are all unaware of what's going on, bc the National "News" Media keeps sanewashing everything and pretending that everything is fine.
The troops... They are the best of us! 🇺🇸🙏😭
Retired Army Sgt. Brian Wofford spoke to me this morning at the Oklahoma City #NoKings protest. Didn’t expect him to be carrying his DD214 so I asked some warmup questions like when he got out and whether his injury was service-related.

He paused while describing the car bomb in Iraq to say this:
CNN is pretending it doesn't know he posted that... They just asked a guest to speculate what Trump's response would be.

It was weird to see them pretend that the "defecating on the American People video statement" from the President didn't happen.
A lot of centrist commentators who genuinely got worked up about the unforgivably insulting nature of "cling to guns and religion" or "basket of deplorables" are weirdly silent about Trump portraying himself as literally shitting on American cities
This!

Newspapers that don't know which story is the most important story on any given day, isn't a newspaper one can rely on for good information.

Good evening. We estimate that between 4.2 and 7.6 million people turned out for the No Kings Day demonstrations held around the country on Saturday. This makes Oct 18 very likely the biggest single-day U.S. protest event since 1970. www.gelliottmorris.com/p/second-no-...
Second "No Kings Day" protests likely the largest single-day political demonstration since 1970, with 4.2-7.6 million participants
