No more pretense or excuses. Trump and his team have made the white supremacist foundations of this project explicit and clear.

If you enable this you need to face who and what you are. But you can always choose another way.

Choose humanity. Decency. Equality. Democracy.
To make common cause with this Administration is to support an affirmatively white supremacist vision of this country. Period.

Every corporation.
Every Republican.
Every influencer.
Every Governor.
Every evangelical leader.
Every voter. Yes. Every voter.

Now bring this problem of AI generated content to *newsletters,* where there is no pitch process, no editing, no fact-checking.

This is the only area where the low ROI of newsletters is a benefit: it might keep AI entrepreneurs out of the system. But if you’re generating niche content at scale…

Jake Tapper and Maggie Haberman have book deals to sign they can’t be bothered with news
"Western civilization," the font, the 11 stars - 11 states in the confederacy, for the record.

Why is this never news? Why are we letting our government agencies do this sort of thing while the news agencies report on hallucinated trade deals and act like everything is normal

Far too little, far too late. Every confirmation vote for this man should be fucking disqualifying for another term in the Senate. He's that bad.

In the span of a hour, they stealth edited the article from trans woman to "biological male who identifies as a woman." The BBC isn't fit for purpose.
It looks like that BBC page has been updated in the last few minutes, so that's no longer the last sentence. I think part of it has been moved to this paragraph in the middle of the article, and the age is no longer mentioned:

Does the BBC think it's improper for a speaker to state their opinion that Donald Trump is the most openly corrupt president in American history?

Because I think almost all historians would readily agree that Donald Trump is the most openly corrupt president in American history.
BBC censors a lecture removing author’s remarks on Trump that refer to him a the most openly corrupt American president.

Peak Patel
FBI Director Kash Patel reportedly showed up in New Zealand this summer with diplomatic pleasantries and a handful of plastic guns that authorities rushed to get rid of because of an explosion risk.

Firearms specialists concluded that Patel’s 3D-printed revolvers met the legal definition of actual firearms under New Zealand law.

Holy shit. So Elon decides it would be nice to know what region of the world people are posting from. So they add that little feature.
2 hours later they figure out that many Trump supporters with millions of followers are posting from other countries. Surprise!
That "feature" is now gone.

This is What Settler Colonialism Looks Like
Neither Trump, nor half of his cabinet have “ancestors” who were in North America before the revolution. I’d guess that less than half of current US citizens do. “Your ancestors” is doing a lot of implicitly white Christian nationalist work here.

Stefanik got cozy with Chris Rufo, attacked universities with bogus charges of antisemitism, successfully collected two resignations / firings, and all she got for her trouble was a mountain of humiliation.

She deserves every bit of it. No pity, no empathy for that fascist creep.
Trump’s guiltiest pleasure, hands down, is humiliating Elise Stefanik.

“It is not ignorance that drives the comparison of the Palestinian genocide to the Holocaust. It is historical memory, triggered by Israelis hurting Palestinians. Of raiding their lingerie drawers, bombing their hospitals, raping them in captivity. Of describing their children as the enemy.“
