We no longer need wonder what it would have been like if citizens of Germany in the 1930s had phone cameras and attempted to document the atrocities. We’re there. Now.

They’re killing lots of people

per my point about the mercator projection being the root of this whole thing
Why is Trump fixated on Greenland? @sbg1.bsky.social recalls what he told us in 2021: "I said, 'Why don’t we have that?' You take a look at a map...I love maps. And I always said 'Look at the size of this, it’s massive and that should be part of the United States.'" www.newyorker.com/news/letter-...
Why Donald Trump Wants Greenland (and Everything Else)
There’s no Trump Doctrine, just a map of the world that the President wants to write his name on in big gold letters.

They actually said this out loud.
WH sources say Venezuela's opposition leader committed the "ultimate sin": She accepted the Nobel Peace prize.

“If she had turned it down and said, ‘I can’t accept it because it’s Donald Trump’s,’ she’d be the president of Venezuela today,” one said.

Trump just handed Russia and China all kinds of pretext and precedent to take illegal, unilateral action. We are headed into very dangerous times.

“The phrase ‘wag the dog’ refers to a strategy where a political leader engages in diversionary tactics—often involving military action or another high-stakes maneuver—to distract the public from a pending or existing scandal, crisis, or failure.” #wagthedog

Health insurance premiums just increased massively, but look over here!
Q: You said the US is going to run Venezuela. So who's in power right now?

TRUMP: Well, we're gonna be running it with a group. We're gonna make sure it's run properly. We're gonna rebuild the oil infrastructure which will cost billions of dollars.

If there is a silver lining, it's that Weiss is so ham-handed. It couldn't be more clear that this was a political intervention in service of the administration.

This seasonal mix reflects my multicultural heritage and family, diverse tastes, love of nostalgic Christmas, and voracious appetitie for new music. Enjoy any time, but designed to start at 4:00 PM on Christmas Eve (Nochebuena) and takes you to midnight. It gets gentler in the last hour or so.

What the hell?
The White House has been caught.

The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims.

In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.

What upsets me is how Congressional Republicans voted yes to extend a tax cut for the wealthiest of Americans but voted no for a tax credit to help hardworking Americans afford health-care coverage.

That just ain't right.
