Education spending is defense spending. It prevents outbreaks of fascism, treason and disease.

This should be a major scandal. The Blaze falsely reported that a former U.S. Capitol Police officer was the Jan. 6th pipe bomber. But it wasn’t just another miss by conservative media promoting conspiracies.

Someone in US intel - at ODNI - was promoting it:

Trump is “the most openly corrupt president in American history.”

Let’s all put Rutger Bregman’s words out there, seeing as how the BBC will not … on advice of counsel.

NEWS --> BBC confirms to me that they did edit a line out of historian @rutgerbregman.com's speech. It called Trump "the most openly corrupt president in US history."

BBC also confirms this was done on the advice of lawyers. So Trump's threats worked.

New piece:

Trump’s Fury at BBC Gets Unnerving Results with Pro-MAGA Edit Stunner
First, British Broadcasting Corporation execs resigned after Trump complained about a segment. Now the BBC edited out a line from a historian that was critical of Trump. Where does this end?

This man is the kind of American I always believed in. The kind of example that, as a child, I thought we set to the world.
I've said since Trump picked on Mahmoud Khalil that he was picking his political martyrs poorly.

But this one...

I cannot imagine what could possibly go wrong in trying to court-martial an astronaut and pilot decorated multiple times for valor and exceptional service, who is also a sitting senator, for correctly making the point that service members are obliged not to follow unlawful orders
Hegseth is now threatening to recall Sen. Mark Kelly to active duty in order to court martial him.

This is a coup, a heist and a foreign invasion in one.
A reminder that this pattern of activity including the stupid handles and bio lines and emojis was catalogued in the Senate reports on Russia’s election interference in 2016 — a thing which actually happened!

X rolled out a new feature overnight showing where accounts are based. This network of “Trump-supporting independent women” that claimed to be “real Americans” are based in Thailand.

The photos were stolen from European models & posts pushed pro-Trump lines while targeting Islam and LGBTQ people.

Sen Cassidy could also say:

“Yes. I was wrong.”
“He should be removed.”
“His policies are dangerous.”
“As I doctor, here’s how we know vaccines are safe and save lives ______.”
“I deeply regret my vote and commit to fighting medical disinformation that endangers the health of children and adults.”
