My literal life goal is to never actually hear Trump’s voice ever again

An HHS source says admin also RIFed entire Office of Population Affairs last night.
“Not a single staff person to run our nation's family planning program or the evidence-based teen pregnancy prevention program. The Office of Adolescent Health which nested within OPA functionally ceases to exist”

Every once in a while I remember Trump changed vice presidents because he sent a violent mob to take care of his previous one and that’s not a thing anyone even talks about.

In an absolutely shocking revelation, it turns out that when Elon was yelling about leaving California — inducing a million headlines about California’s demise — he was actually lying.
Elon Musk loves to hate CA, yet can’t stop leasing new offices
The tech mogul’s companies haven’t been leaving the Bay Area, but rather, have been expanding their office footprint at every turn.

If you're going to write headlines like this, why even have newspapers?

Should the New York Times be sold to Pennysaver and its editors sent to work in Amazon warehouses? It depends on who you ask.

On NYT Home Page there's a Douthat column w/the headline "Trump's Foreign Policy is Succeeding. He Should Apply It's Lessons at Home." On what planet? Betraying our allies. Blowing up the global trading system. Embracing autocrats. Pulling back support for Ukraine. Helping to support Gaza slaughter.

After spending 43 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit, evidence hidden by the prosecution reversed his conviction. Rather than finally enjoying freedom, ICE abducted him for deportation

Depraved.

At Nuremberg, bureaucrats, doctors, judges, industrialists, etc. were tried with separate processes calibrated to their professions. Various degrees of guilt were established, sure. But it's not like all those people were all innocent just because they weren't soldiers.

Absolutely. It is predictable. I wrote a warning about this a few weeks after the 2024 election.
When this ultimately all falls apart—and it will, one way or another—the overwhelming desire from elite quarters will be to just move on. It's in the past. We're looking forward.

Not this time.

When the country is left examining the wreckage of this administration and the movement which swept it back into power, those responsible and their enablers will seek to escape accountability on ratlines to the speaker's circuit for lucrative fees or slink off to the Harvard IOP fellows program. History informs us that the odds are in their favor. It is also instructive that the lack of accountability only begets further destructive actions. This past election is an acute example of this failing and we will all suffer as a result.

I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.

The fact that they’re calling it “liberty” and lying about election integrity is really scary.

And the fact that they settled with Trump’s allies on defamation is scary.

And that the new owner is a hyper-partisan Republican is scary.

This is EXTREMELY bad

Yikes?

Reporters: I hope you are digging into this hard.

I can imagine this meaning they are trying to rebuild trust among Republicans (which would be great!). I can also imagine much more worrisome possibilities.

So dominion voting got sold, look at this fascinating statement from their new owner (not to doom but this is, uh, suboptimal). www.dominionvoting.com

Our Promise.

My Fellow Americans,
Today, I am proud to announce Liberty Vote - a 100% American-owned election technology company dedicated to restoring trust in our elections. Our mission is clear: every vote must be secure, fair, and verifiable.
I have spent my life working to strengthen America's elections. That commitment began years ago, in the aftermath of the 2000 election, when I worked for the Missouri Secretary of State. Later, as Election Director in St. Louis, I led the effort to modernize outdated systems and rebuild public trust. Eventually, I founded an election technology company that today serves nearly one in four voters nationwide.
With Liberty Vote, we are building on that legacy. We are turning the page and beginning the vital work of restoring faith in American elections. While these changes will not happen overnight, Liberty Vote's mission is rooted in American values and committed to transparency, independent audits, and verifiable paper records.
Our purpose is simple: to ensure that America's elections are secure, fair, and honest.
Scott Leiendecker
Founder and Chairman, Liberty Vote
