The purpose of journalism, especially when reporting on authoritarian actions, is to say what happened, not say what a wrong or lying person claims happened

publicly rejecting it, on every social media account you have, and amplifying every other rejection, is also signaling. they’re a weak regime, getting weaker, in a mix of false bravado and panic and fear, and who they fear is us. they should.
The president is also signalling to his followers in and out of government what the party line on this horrific murder will be. That it's transparently false is almost beside the point. Indeed, publicly adopting the falsehood will fast become a loyalty test.
That he chooses the "me or your lying eyes?" approach, in the full knowledge that there are multiple videos out there, is a striking commentary on the nature of propaganda in the modern information environment.

This is the current front page of the Times. The Washington Post is even worse. Their headlines are privileging the accounts of the administration with a track record of lying as being as valid as eye witness accounts and videos.

I hate to break it to you, but heavily-armed government militias are roaming unchecked through US cities and shooting human rights observers dead in the streets. That's happening in our country.

A 1985 Supreme Court ruling says that police can't open fire on someone who is fleeing unless they pose a serious danger to the officer or others. But that was authored by activist judges appointed by woke presidents like Nixon and Reagan.

"Secret police" is often misunderstood to mean a force that operates covertly, with all their operations secret.

But a secret police force's actions are often public. The secret part is hiding their identities, because they're breaking laws to hurt politically disfavored people, and fear reprisals.

I think we are seeing that the government does believe it has the right to murder US citizens as it sees fit.

If they didn’t, it’d be pretty simple to sacrifice this one agent and go back to kidnapping.

I, uh, cannot imagine the level of anger necessary for an Epsicopal bishop to openly say “I worry you are all going to Hell.”
"I urge any who are involved in the administration of the current immigration enforcement regime at any level to seek the counsel of their clergy, given my urgent pastoral concern for the moral and spiritual injury that their participation is causing them." - Bp. Rob Price of Dallas, 1/1/2026

The more money, resources, and power you give to ICE, the more folks they're going to harm and kill. It's as simple as that.

Democrats need to understand that they can just say “It’s insane to threaten Greenland” and “I don’t think ICE should murder Americans in the street” and you don’t need to pretend to link it to the affordability crisis.

ICE murdered a woman - there’s no ambiguity here. I hope local and state leaders do everything they can to hold the perpetrator accountable.

“We can’t impeach Trump a third time because he was elected after being impeached twice.”

Yes, we all know the lesson we teach our children: Stop doing the right thing because it didn’t work once or twice. Just give up.

Once again, a mere handful of people in Washington could caucus today with the Democrats & put an end to ~90% of the worst things immediately.

They even have names: bsky.app/profile/mcop...

We should stop giving these people free passes every day & yell at them like everyone yells at Democrats.
This puts the GOP at 218 with a shutdown coming.

It's important to remember that Donald Trump lies constantly, but this is Donald Trump declaring that he has used the United States military to extort Venezuela into giving him $1.7-2.7 billion for his personal use.
