BREAKING: A Russian newspaper today — “America no longer sees our country as a threat… The US leader’s philosophy is closer to the values of Russia’s president, not the politicians of the Old World… he sees Europe as a liberal stronghold that must be destroyed…”
Read that again.

Flock cameras are *already* being used and misused by law enforcement: here, a Greenfield officer allegedly used one to spy on his own spouse, mid-divorce.
This is an urgent privacy issue, but it's also a distraction from real solutions to public safety. www.aclu-wi.org/news/what-th...

If trad Dems don't get the message, and it seems like they haven't, they may get an anti-Trump vote bounce, but will lose power again soon. Nothing will change for the better, for the benefit of the broadest diversity of Americans, over the long term. Dems need to learn the from of AOC and Mamdani.
The Democratic National Committee has completed its long-awaited analysis on what went wrong in the 2024 campaign. But in a move that will attract intense criticism, it’s keeping the findings secret. trib.al/PMlTxIm

This is fucking grim. Somebody invented a white guy, an "IT professional" named Edward Crabtree, who stopped the Bondi shooting and spread it all over the internet, which was picked up by AI agents and slop aggregation sites.

No one should be targeted, PERIOD!
There is no reason for weapons in the public realm. NONE.
"A good guy with a gun is still a guy with a gun." Any argument to that effect simply provides further evidence of failed public policy and broken social conscience.

I’m horrified by the terror attack in Australia targeting a celebration of Hanukkah. We all must stand against this hatred. No one should be targeted for their religion.

Gun massacres daily now.
Supreme Court Chief Justice
Warren Burger once said,
"The gun lobby's interpretation
of the 2nd Amendment is
one of the greatest pieces of fraud,
I repeat the word fraud,
on the American people
by special interest groups
I have ever seen in my lifetime."

For the first time, the Kennedy Center Awards were presented in the tiny Oval Office instead of the Kennedy Center For Performing Arts. Donald used his now-vulgar Oval Office for the ceremony to avoid the embarrassment of TV audiences seeing an almost empty theater.

The hard truth is that right now, our Secretary of Health is one of our nation’s biggest health threats and largest sources of health disinformation.
Realistically, we need RFK Jr. to be FIRED. At a minimum, he needs to answer to Congress for his attacks on public health.

Under RFK Jr., the CDC provides a megaphone to the anti-vaccine movement
Common anti-vaccine talking points were on display as the CDC’s immunization advisers repealed a hepatitis B birth vaccine recommendation and scrutinized the childhood schedule.

May I just say for the nth time that Tr*mp is a complete idiot, spews horrible word combinations, has hate and spite where his heart ought to be, and has surrounded himself with a collection of miserable turds to decorate his gilded Outhouse. His party has gathered and sanctioned the worst in ppl.
