Republicans seem to know, in detail, exactly what motivated the shooting at Brown. Maybe they should use their psychic powers to find the shooter? Or at least find out who the shooter is?

Fentanyl is not a weapon of mass destruction.

Venezuela is not a major producer of fentanyl.

We have never owned any land or oil in Venezuela. Nothing there is “stolen” from us.

You can believe absurdities if you want, but war has real consequences you won’t be able 2 ignore.

I truly hope this @niemanlab.org prediction from @traciepowell.bsky.social comes true! "Influencers won’t save journalism. Algorithms won’t save journalism. Corporate platforms won’t save journalism. Communities will. But only if we pivot — fast. www.niemanlab.org/2025/12/jour...

"Journalism will look back on its influencer mania the way it now views the 'pivot to video' — as a costly diversion from building real community infrastructure."

Calling Tuberville “governor-elect” a year before the election is not the flex you think it is. It’s a way of shouting to the world that Alabama is not, in fact, a democracy or a Republic. You’re telling people the fix is in.
