To the reporter who just emailed asking me to make sense of Trump's threats to Iran. lolz, your guess is as good as mine. He's a madman.

In an age of creeping relativism, a universal moral law still exists. Threatening to end an entire civilization of 90 million people in order to bend a nation’s conduct to your will is grossly morally wrong. It is evil. And we should say this loudly.

If America is to actually repudiate fascism, not kinda sorta put it on partial pause (if only in some states), we require a reckoning across every aspect of society.

Untranslated headlines in German are much clearer than New York Times headlines in English

We have an economic problem masquerading as a political one and if we do not address the billionaire crime syndicate destroying all dimensions of society, we may dilute the fascism a bit by not losing the next election but we sure as hell won't rid ourselves of it.

The emperor isn't merely naked; he has been operating a MAGA Murder Regime since at least beginning this term, for which he orchestrated a deadly attempted coup. And, at every turn, "the institutions" have been not merely compliant but rather complicit.

The biggest story in the world right now is that the president of the United States is a demented old man who takes pleasure in torturing and killing people and is committing crimes with impunity. And yet most legacy media outlets are too cowardly to tell it like it is.

We need your help. The Trump administration is dismantling the U.S. Forest Service. 193 million acres of public land (bigger than Texas) is being handed over to political operatives and industry insiders.

A final thought: the most important, efficacious, & sizeable faction on the left is plain old normie Dems, "wine moms," "resistance libs," whatever condescending term you prefer. They're the ones doing the actual work. But they are largely ignored by media, because they're organized & led by women.

Over the last 25 years, six people who contracted measles in the U.S. died from it. A model built by Stanford researchers predicts that if Americans could no longer get the vaccine, measles could kill about 290,000 people in the next 25 years.

The Horrors That Could Lie Ahead if Vaccines Vanish

Researchers at Stanford University modeled how many people could die or be disabled in 25 years if vaccines for polio, measles, rubella or diphtheria were no longer available.

CBS is Trump TV. Less than two months after CBS News suddenly pulled a report on the regime’s prison camps, CBS lawyers told Stephen Colbert that he couldn’t air an interview with a Texas Democratic candidate. This is what complicity looks like.

Stephen Colbert says CBS didn't air interview out of fear of FCC

Colbert kicked off Monday's episode of "The Late Show" by saying that the network's lawyers told him he could not have Texas state Rep. James Talarico on the broadcast.

“Presidents don’t name things after themselves, people name things after presidents — and there is a big difference between the two,” said Jennifer Mercieca, a communications professor at Texas A&M University and the author of “Demagogue for President: The Rhetorical Genius of Donald Trump.”

Trump’s Relentless Self-Promotion Fosters an American Cult of Personality: President Trump has engaged in a spree of self-aggrandizement unlike any of his predecessors, fostering a mythologized superhuman persona and making himself the inescapable force at home and around the world. 🎁

They think they have a right to impose their delusions on your kids. They are banking on the fact that liberal parents will be too nice to be as aggressive as MAHA. Prove them wrong. This should infuriate you and you must make sure your legislators hear that. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/13/h...
