Treat the US government and ICE claims like you'd treat a Russian government claim after they've shot down an airliner or bombed a hospital. America 2026.

🧵 @jburnmurdoch.ft.com is spot on about the conditions in his FT piece. Liberal democracy held it together thanks to growth, good demographics, and the promise of a better future. Those days are gone, and that’s the "why" behind the erosion. However...
Democratic politicians have, though, pursued growth in GDP at the expense of other values. One response to @jburnmurdoch.ft.com pessimistic scenario is refocus on those values, combined with egalitarianism, sufficiency and quality of life. Not "it's the economy, stupid" but "it's the the society"
Is liberal democracy in terminal decline?

In this clip from a longer interview, she says while she was in detention, agents called Renee Good a “lesbian b*tch.”

Good time to follow Bellingcat, which has done crucial, dependable evidentiary work for many years
For those keeping score, Bellingcat, The New York Times Visual Investigation Team, & Washington Post's Visual Forensic team have all published analysis showing the ICE shooter wasn't in the path of Renee Nicole Good’s vehicle when he shot her, contradicting statements by the President & his cronies

Google's Sergey Brin and Salar Kamangar are in the Epstein photos released today.
At this point we should be asking which billionaires aren't in the files.
Seems pretty clear that Epstein was at the core of the ongoing foreign-backed tech bro coup.

Probably the best descriptor for the MAGA / John Roberts / Silicon Valley axis is that they’re Royalists. They don’t believe in democracy, and want to set up an elective monarchy with Donald Trump as founding king and themselves as the nobility.

1/ Russian soldiers who fall out with their commanders – due to personality clashes, disagreements, or a refusal to pay bribes – are routinely sent to their deaths in stormtrooper squads. Few survive for long; the following account vividly describes the life of a stormtrooper. ⬇️

Just the blandest corporate enshittification at work here. Sycophantic moron executives siphon more and more productive investments into pointless performative bullshit they use cosplay as “competent businessmen”. White mediocrity at work.

The December print issue of The New Republic begins with an unbylined "11th Hour" column whose author I am not free to divulge. Suffice it to say I have admired him since birth. It's not online so I attach it here. If you can't make it out you'll just have to buy a paper copy.
