It is fully irresponsible to argue for an American return to global leadership. This country is deeply unwell and has no business leading anything until that's no longer the case. There's a whole world out there capable of tending to the world's problems. We must tend to ours.

Can they help us Texans out as well?
More than 200,000 Danish citizens have signed a petition to buy California as a response to Trump’s attempt to take Greenland.
They say they will provide Californians with “rule of law, universal health care, fact-based politics, and a lifetime supply of Danish pastries.”

There are many tactics Republicans can & may employ to try to depress voter turnout and intimidate voters. That said, voter turnout can also be depressed by people preemptively declaring the election is rigged. It takes effort to get to the polls, it doesn't help to tell people it's not worth it.

We all know it’s going to happen right? We keep pretending otherwise but it’s going to happen so it might as well just get going now. No sense in dragging this out.

Can’t wait to listen to this on the commute home. Such an amazing album that should’ve made her a big star.
Latest edition of Catalog Club (aka the book club but with albums) is now live. This month's artist is Lucinda Williams, and today's album is her 1988 self-titled. Great album, possibly good post!

I got one of these from a scammer purporting to be a Lieutenant in the Harris County Constable Office. There were enough red flags that we never got to the payment part.
Just got a reasonably convincing scam call from someone purporting to be with the Durham County Sheriff's Office, alleging I missed federal jury duty and a bench warrant had been issued for my arrest
Guy had me almost worried for a solid 2-3 minutes
They even did up a fake warrant to text me!

in these moments, in my view, it is a political and spiritual DUTY for my outrage and anger to be as fresh as if I'd never heard how they shot Fred Hampton in his bed. As fresh as if I didn't know Bobby Hutton was surrendering when they shot him. 1/2

No US oil company should risk investing in Venezuela. Companies that take part in Trump's lawless takeover of Venezuela's resources should keep in mind that any American tax dollars they take to invest in a foreign country will be recovered by the next administration.

one of my recent preoccupations is the visceral hostility the MAGA right has for the histories and traditions of the United States. these are people who spit on the Declaration and salute third-rate European despots!
It's striking that progressives like Tim Walz and Zohran Mamdani evoke the middle American attitude that, "Yes, we can fix these social problems because we're Americans and it's the right thing to do!" While the "America first" right only emulates failed and failing nation-states elsewhere.

The issue, & not one @qjurecic.bsky.social has demonstrated in her reporting, is how the majority of the news media, politicians, & other elites & notables responded to & framed the attack on 6 January, how the attack came about, & its aftermath. 1/
my theory of Jan 6 is that nobody (except for a few weirdos) likes to think about it. from 2021-2025, the investigations/prosecutions meant that Biden was the guy who was making people think about it (which they hated). now Trump is the guy making them think about it and they also hate that

“Tragically, America is still living in a political era that began on Jan. 6, 2021,” the editorial board writes. “Recognizing as much is necessary to bring this era to an end before it has many more anniversaries.”

I feel like "attention hacking" is most of politics now. The Minnesota aid fraud story is becoming a perfect example.
