We’re not dealing with brilliant strategists cleverly laying traps, we’re dealing with impulsive whiners whose advantage is contempt for laws, norms, and morality.

They’re not pulling some elaborate trick, they’re just willing—even eager—to do things regular, principled people consider off limits.

At a time of multiple international crises, the Pentagon’s official positions will be relayed by Timcast, The Epoch Times, LindellTV and the Gateway Pundit, which means that many people simply won’t believe Pentagon statements at all. Which might be the point

The Pentagon’s Preferred Propaganda Model

The Trump administration is trying to muddle reality—and create apathy.

Honestly at some point you have to start doing psyops with these people:

Have Obama announce that he will seek a third term tomorrow. Then watch all the con law “scholars” and Fix News MELT DOWN trying to explain why he can’t but Trump can. (It’s like Newsom taking over his social media persona)

Q: One theory on how you might try to serve a 3rd term is that you could run at the vice president

TRUMP: Yeah, I'd be allowed to do that. But I would rule that out because it's too cute.

Again, I'm in the cheap seats here just watching the show, but the fact that the richest Americans are acting with such open contempt for the rest of the nation seems not just bad for the country but possibly *really* bad for their own fates too.

They're making a different bet now, it seems.

SNAP exists because politicians take campaign contributions from large corporations in exchange for letting those corporations pay a poverty wage so low that it must be subsidized with taxpayer money, paid by middle class workers barely getting by—all so 700 billionaires can have a few extra billion

lol what the wealthy today don't seem to understand is part of staying wealthy in society is not pissing off the masses.

There's a reason why Carnegie and the Rockefellers poured money into institutions. Gutting institutions and making it harder for the masses to survive is a...choice.

What's that? You say Senate Republicans don't want to give up their filibuster in exchange for their budget?

Yeah, well, Senate Democrats don't want to give up this democracy in exchange for your budget either.

We all have problems, I guess.

Once again, the main day of Tea Party protests had about 300,000 nationwide, but saw endless coverage.

The No Kings protests had about 7,000,000 nationwide, and many media outlets reacted with a yawn.

No Kings was nearly 25x as big as the Tea Party but the Tea Party got 25x the attention.

Thomas Zimmer @thomaszimmer.bsky.social · 1d

Ask yourself this: How would the New York Times have covered the protests if it had been seven million MAGA supporters flooding the streets? We don’t even have to guess: We know how they and other mainstream outlets covered the Tea Party protests during Obama’s first term.

"Andy Ngo and other far right extremists have been targeting Avalos since at least as early as July and trying to paint her as violent and a 'member of Antifa.' On court record, Ngo has admitted that his social media posts can lead to violence."

It's projection from the right. All the way down.

Ein tatsächliches Wirtschaftswachstum gibt es in den USA nur noch im AI Bereich. Wenn man alle direkten und indirekten AI-Investitionen herausrechnet, befindet sich die US Wirtschaft schon in einer Phase der Stagnation.

If I were running the DNC, there would be Democratic Party sponsored food relief banks across the country right now that specifically welcomed anyone regardless of party affiliation.

Along with the food, there could be voter registration and links to runforsomething.net

das widerlegt wurde, habe ich davon nichts mehr gehört. Bei rechten Verschwörungstheorien ist es ihren Anhängern völlig egal, wie oft sie widerlegt wurden, sie fühlen sich davon sogar oft eher bestätigt in ihrem Glauben an große Verschwörungen.

Gutes Interview, aber eine Anmerkung dazu: keine Frage, daß es auch linke Verschwörungstheorien gibt, aber das Beispiel „Kirk ist von Rechten (Nick Fuentes‘ Anhängern) ermordet worden“ hinkt etwas. Es gab dieses Gerücht zwar, aufgrund der „Groyper“-Referenzen des Täters auf den Hülsen, aber nachdem

Thank you to everyone who has reached out with concern. Late last night, I woke up to my car, car port, and home engulfed in flames. I'm grateful for the quick response from Portland firefighters who prevented the fire from spreading even further.
