The second great moral question of our time will be "What did you do to stop Donald Trump?"

Today's WaPo headlines:

- White House floats military option for Greenland, rattling Denmark and NATO

- Fear grips Caracas as a new wave of repression is unleashed

- White House publishes website that rewrites history of Jan. 6 attack

Good work, America.

One reason Venezuela won't be another Iraq: Back in the early 2000s, after lying us into war, the media felt some obligation to continue to try to accurately report on the status of Iraq and the occupation, and W at least claimed to abide by the "Pottery Barn Rule".

I once passed by Mark Linn-Baker, the guy who played Cousin Larry on Perfect Strangers, crossing the street in NYC.
Right folks. Feeling rather down at the moment so bringing back an oldie

A fantastic article about true heroes actually doing the Lord's (or Flying Spaghetti Monster's) work.

Please read it.

precious few of our national level leaders have acted as heroes this year. That has largely been a role foisted upon regular people to bear the burden of being courageous in the face of authoritarianism.

Senator Van Hollen saving Kilmar’s life is an exception - a genuine act of heroism.
Today, I spoke with Kilmar Abrego Garcia and his wife, Jennifer. In April, when I met with him in El Salvador, Trump said he would never set foot in the U.S. again.

This case has never been about one man alone; if the govt can violate the constitutional rights of one, all our rights are threatened.

MD, OR & IL can all immediately draw new maps via their legislatures. Do it.

CO, NY & NJ require constitutional amendments. NY & NJ can pass via legislature. CO would need a ballot initiative. Do it.

CA did it. VA is doing it. Do it. Do it now.

CNBC headline: "Dow rises 400 points as weak ADP jobs report spurs rate cut hopes"

Translation: Investors are glad the public is suffering because it makes it more likely the government will continue rig the economy in their favor.

The system is broken.

you know what? good advice.
Reporter: Are you affirming that you think the president is a fascist?

Mamdani: I've spoken about --

Trump: Just say yes, it's easier than explaining.

The people that are asking "What if Clinton is in the Epstein files?" are confessing that they don't really care if Trump is and presume everyone else is as morally bankrupt as they are.

Stop patting senators on the head unless they are calling for schumer's removal. Everything else is just in the script

Don't look now but State Navigate is projecting Democrats to get a supermajority in the Virginia State Legislature, going from 51-49 to 64-36. Crazy!

This is still a democracy. I'll be damned if we're gonna just give these pathetic fascists power they don't have.

@keithlaw.bsky.social, serious question for you (somewhat in hindsight): Does game theory factor into any of this managing? Don't you have to play out what happens post-bunt? "What would Doc do?" has to be asked. And then the answer is clear: Walk Barger to get the slowest man in baseball to GIDP.
