The White House’s new anti-media website includes denunciations of:
-ABC, which bribed the president
-CBS, which bribed the president and moved away from fact-based journalism trying to appeal to him and his fans
-WaPo, which spiked a Harris endorsement and tilts coverage in Trump’s favor
Fools.

Re: Tom Stoppard - I know that most everyone feels that SAVING PRIVATE RYAN was robbed of an Oscar by SHAKESPEARE IN LOVE.
You can think what you like; I’m not a fan of this debate in general, and I’m a Spielberg guy. But dismissing SHAKESPEARE IN LOVE is wrong. It’s a great movie.

Closing the airspace over a foreign country is a de facto declaration of war but we’ve pushed so far into “let’s conspicuously underreact so everyone knows we’re savvy people not overreacting to Trump” that his de facto declaration of war is literally not even being reported on the news

I’m dumbstruck by news of the death of Tom Stoppard—maybe because he hoarded all the words and knew how to use them better than just about anyone. I hope we savor his spectacular wit and erudition and argue about the politics of his plays forever. He was monumental, and also a kind and curious man.

US labor leadership spent the better half of the 20th century prioritizing anticommunist action at home and abroad with the belief that capitalism was best for US workers and now union density in the private sector is like 5 percent and the minimum wage hasn't changed in 20 years

Creating a military conflict with Venezuela gives this administration a legal "hook" to invoke the Alien Enemies Act. In other words, the foreign war is being manufactured in order to facilitate court deference for its domestic mass deportation policy. It's a Stephen Miller Special.

Tom Stoppard, playwright of dazzling wit and playful erudition, dies aged 88
A theatrical sensation since the 1960s, whose dramas included Arcadia, The Real Thing and Leopoldstadt, Stoppard also had huge success as a screenwriter

Unless every last Trumpist, from the mad emperor down to the goon squads, face severe penalties (minimum decades in prison), AND the government is reformed to disconnect every lever they used to accumulate power, this is going to happen again within the lifetimes of most reading this.
at this point the overwhelming majority of the Trump administration is going to have to be prosecuted for a mix of corruption, treason, and war crimes
At some point in the future, Witkoff should be prosecuted for this.

To be explicit, we executed a German U-Boat commander who said he had to sink lifesaving gear / “inadvertently” kill survivors because it might give away his position, thereby potentially resulting in the loss of his submarine.
We executed multiple members of that crew.
