BREAKING: I'm placing a hold on President Trump's nominee for U.S. Attorney in DC.
For the past few weeks, Ed Martin has been a one-man wrecking ball. Threatening political opponents, firing public servants, and using his office to chill free speech.
His nomination must be blocked.

one thing that's interesting about this moment compared to say the collapse of Tzarism or Imperial Germany is that the idiots in charge then had zero real skills or talents, whereas our idiot rulers each had exactly one skill that allowed them to maneuver into power
Really and truly, if I could communicate anything about history it's that genuine dumbasses can be key historical agents, and that has pretty massive implications for how we make sense of the past and present both.

Every time I see these stories I don’t only think about how much effort it is to defend every single program, I think how much it must infuriate the people who thought they could just sweep everything away to keep getting told no. Tiny wins are still wins

ok so what gets called "gender ideology" is jsut like "be who and how you want" and what gets called "not ideology" is like "follow these specific unwritten rules and perform these forbidden rituals according to the circumstances of your birth"

I'm sure very few people know about this. Inmates in 43 states are charged a per diem cost for "room and board" ranging between $40 to hundreds of dollars. In some states you owe for every day of your original sentence EVEN IF YOU GET OUT EARLY.

social media needs to be regulated and treated very much like we currently treat drugs.
that's long term. in the immediate term? focus on the 75% of men who aren't voting for fascists. you will have more luck reaching and organizing them than deradicalizing Andrew Tate fans.

The far-right radicalization of young men (and almost exclusively young men) is a global phenomenon, and no one has any good idea of what to do about it.

The U.S. has two tsunami warning centers, both operated by NOAA. Employees were terminated from these centers today. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center covers Hawaiʻi, and now it is less safe to be near the beach.

The more actually qualified people get fired due to "DEI" the more we should point out Vance, however unqualified to be VP, also benefitted from it. It bypasses cishet white dude imposter syndrome.
JD Vance is a DEI beneficiary and we should stress this whenever possible especially since people are starting to learn what DEI actually is.

This has got to be one of the most ideologically baffling stickers I’ve ever seen. Like, do you get that Roman Cops are who put Jesus on the cross? Were you whooping and hollering and yelling “Get his ass, Pontius Pilate!” when you got to that part of the story?

"Totalitarianism in power invariably replaces all first-rate talents, regardless of their sympathies, with those crackpots and fools whose lack of intelligence and creativity is still the best guarantee of their loyalty." - Hannah Arendt
The guy who asked Zelensky if he owned a suit, Brian Glenn, is a reporter for the pro-Trump media network Real America’s Voice and also Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene's boyfriend. He got one of the rare Oval Office interviewer spots only after the White House blocked the Associated Press.

every truly great military leader in every era has been a giant history nerd so surely this will make our army more effective
For those historians keeping track, esp #milhist folks, “history” is now a flagged word bc of its apparent connection to #DEI. Canary in a coal mine, indeed. @smh-historians.bsky.social 🗃️ www.tpr.org/military-vet...
U.S. military removes words 'history,' 'respect,' 'dignity' from digital presence as part of DEI review
The Department of Defense issued a Digital Content Refresh document to comply with DEI removal from the armed services. TPR obtained a document laying out the guidance of what to remove.

Democrats think everything is an episode of the West Wing. They think they’ll all dress the same at the speech and someone will say “no Mr Trump sir you stop” and Trump will melt down and repent right there, as if Aaron Sorkin scripted it all. Such nonsense.
