If it wasn’t political, Trump would’ve invited all of the other gold medal winners to the White House and not just the notoriously MAGA men’s hockey team. I didn’t see Breezy Johnson or Alysa Liu invited to eat McDonalds and listen to honkytonk before being paraded to the SOTU like trained seals
A Minnesota woman observing ICE agents in her car was cornered on one-way streets. An agent approached, called her by name—citing facial recognition. Days later, her Global Entry and TSA privileges were revoked, with no explanation.

The betting markets never anticipated “meathead dying” as the potential last straw.
This weekend was dark and full of horrors. May we all summon our better angels...
I feel as though there should be a law that says if Pierre Poilievre gets defenestrated as CPC leader in January then he has to move to Battle River—Crowfoot and live there until the next election because I think this would teach everyone involved an invaluable lesson about shenanigans.

Holy shit Trump just defended MBS in the killing of Jamal Khashoggi saying he knew nothing about it
Do any journalists actually still work in Washington, DC? Where are the artifacts and artwork that were in the east wing?
Breaking on MSNBC: An FBI agent in the Washington field office has been fired for refusing to arrest and perp walk James Comey. This news was first reported by Reuters.
The dystopia fascism grows every day, and this has to be not just fought but absolutely destroyed as a tool and a policy in any healthy society

These Project 2025 videos were intended to train a second Trump administration’s political appointees "to be ready on day one." Last August, ProPublica & @documented.net obtained 14 hours of the videos, which covered everything from passing new regulations to rooting out left-wing language:
Watch: 14 Hours of Never-Before-Published Videos From Project 2025’s Presidential Administration Academy
The videos are part of an ongoing effort to recruit and train thousands of future conservative appointees. Despite Donald Trump’s efforts to disavow Project 2025, most of the speakers in the videos ha...

Charlie Kirk’s wife spent the day making video content with his corpse and what *the hell*

Too bad the GOP effectively criminalized studying how information moves online and news orgs laid off and demonized all the reporters who covered the burgeoning online accelerationist performative death cults. All of that work was somehow "censorship" that needed to be stopped. Now we're here.
Please understand they caught Tyler Robinson in spite of Kash Patel
Yeah, there's already enough to see this will be a deep rabbit hole of brainrot, irony, and nihilism. We'll undoubtedly learn he spent time on 4chan and so forth, but this person is not going to have what the rest of us would consider a coherent political ideology.
Michael "Fallen Coffee Pot of Shadows" Senters the Sigillite:ABD@mikesenters.bsky.social · 12mo agoThere are very, VERY few people who are equipped to talk about this shooter correctly given the brainrot written on the shell casing. You have to understand so much of online culture to get it and also understand how that culture is both connected to and separate from real world ideological spaces
Super tired of hearing about “the violent left” when the white MAGA boys are always the ones with the guns
I had no wish for him to be murdered, but I’ll harshly judge anyone who flies their flag at half staff for that hateful extremist or talks about honoring his memory. There was no honor in his life.
