If you ever wondered what you'd have done if you were alive during the 1940s and you'd known about the death camps, you're doing it right now.

The main issue is that they're scared shitless of Elon Musk and his scrotesome little army of weasel-toothed Irish incels. Our meek, mild, milquetoast taoiseach can't see any way around this that doesn't involve keeping his head down and hoping Musk and Trump don't get mad at him.
He did say Apple & Google should remove it from app stores.
He also said the Govt wouldn’t give “kneejerk” response by immediately coming off X, saying other platforms have issues too.
I interjected to say those other platforms don’t generate CSAM.
He accepts that but said other issues exist.

"Good Tsar, Bad Boyar" is the historical term for this
“BAD ADVICE.” Republicans are embracing a method to criticize Trump’s actions without calling him out
Blame advisers.
Threaten Greenland? Just “bad advice.”
Tariffs? “It’s not the president,” it’s Navarro.
Investigating Powell, credit card rates… List is long.

'Bad advice': Republicans criticize Trump's policies without going directly at him
Republicans frequently say those around Trump are giving him "bad advice" as a way to disagree with his policies while avoiding blaming him.

If America makes it through this, anyone who murmurs platitudes about "binding up the nation's wounds" must be drummed out of public life. They tried that after the first phase of the civil war, and it just led to where they are now. The cancer must be excised and destroyed. Nothing else will work.
Holy shit.
Renee Good was alive when the bystander physician asked to check her pulse. She was alive when ICE refused to let him help. She was alive when they told him “I don’t care.”

Nobody from outside the US should travel to that authoritarian shit hole for the world cup or the Olympics. You will not be safe. Do you feel like paying thousands to swell Trump's coffers while putting yourself at very real risk of being attacked, kidnapped, and locked up without due process?
It’s been reported locally, but I’m not sure how much national notice this has gotten. As part of this invasion by shithead goons, they are putting ICE agents in jetbridges and other parts of the airport at Minneapolis-Saint Paul. If you are flying Delta via MSP, you are putting yourself at risk.

Ordinarily, the cult of ignorance in the US is a weird and depressing thing, but seeing all the Trumpists lately refusing to take medicine, drinking raw milk, and eating raw chicken (seriously), I'm beginning to think that maybe it's an advantage to the EU and NATO for them to volunteer for illness.
