as much as i disagree with the right-wing ideological understanding of progressivism+administrative state, i do not disagree with it so much that i think the sinking fund commission is contrapositive of it or, really, anything at all

the presentation of the Iroquois confederacy in Burns's Rev War doc is making the rounds on twitter, and, i mean
it seems like it was meant to be provocative in exactly the way it has been. the influence on the founding is, uh, not yet demonstrated.
calling it a "democracy" is, i'm sorry, wrong

not sure if anyone's noticed, but grok itself has gotten much, much crazier over the course of the last month or so. seems to have been more gradual than previous right-wingifications.
There’s an interesting parallel with the “mecha-Hitler” episode here: AI seems to have a lot of trouble with the sort of winking needle-threading “respectable” right wingers have spent decades mastering, although that’s breaking down of late as well.
This tracks: Cornell researchers: xAI's Grokipedia cites neo-Nazi website Stormfront 42 times, Infowars 34 times, and white nationalist website VDare 107 times www.nbcnews.com/tech/elon-mu...

I’ve been thinking and it’s kind of exceptional that not a single person said “Hey now” after the piggy comment.

part of me wonders, inwardly, privately...why the *fuck* didn't this reporter or any other reporter say or do anything
Trump in response to an Epstein question: "ABC, your company, your crappy company is one of the perpetrators. I think the license should be taken away from ABC because your news is so fake and so wrong. And we have a great commissioner, a chairman, who should take a look at that."

perhaps it was epstein's eloquence that so attracted chomsky, perhaps the sheer depth of his insights into the nature of things
In 2023, Chomsky told WSJ about his relationship with Epstein: “First response is that it is none of your business. Or anyone’s. Second is that I knew him and we met occasionally.”
Epstein: you are of course welcome to use apt in new york with your new leisure time, or visit new Mexico again

The attorney general and the FBI director, a manosphere podcaster bro, pulled into the situation room a member of Congress best known for getting kicked out of a Beetlejuice musical for drunkenly giving her date a handy, in order to pressure her about the president's child sex trafficking scandal.

make of this what you will, but in today's battle between conservatives and postliberals on twitter, the most stalwart and effective defender of the good is phil magness

Peter Viereck's reflections on the McCarthy and post-McCarthy 50's GOP are often surprisingly prescient; here perhaps more humorously than elsewhere

I have at various times worried that a "face"-turn for Trump would be incredibly easy to pull off, but have concluded that he simply doesn't have the disposition or the discipline to pull it off (i.e. he's a truly awful person with zero grasp of how awful he is).
Not sure if that's what this is.

Greene: "I will praise Nancy Pelosi. She had an incredible career for her party. I served under her speakership in my first term in Congress and I'm very impressed at her ability to get things done. I wish we could get things done for our party like Nancy Pelosi was able to deliver for her party."
