As I have said since Feb 2025, Trump is in office to solve Putin's problems. How else are you going to ensure that Putin's failed state becomes prosperous? it is already having to be propped up by China.
We desperately need to grow independent media as fast as we can. You can start by signing up for Democracy Docket. I started it 6 years ago to be unapologetic pro-democracy. No corporate backers. It will never bow down or obey.

All of our living presidents who still have a sense of decency gathered to honor Rev. Jesse Jackson.
Respect recognizes respect.

It's always time for this anti-fascist moment from Casablanca.
And then he stepped down, realizing that even if his sock-puppet God obediently forgave him, the voters might not.
This is deranged. Itβs from the White Houseβs official account.
Killing people is entertainment to the sociopaths in the White House. Decency demands that we resist this.

The AP says Republicans knew Noem was on her way out and told Democrats that her exit was a concession in negotiations to reopen the DHS. Dems said nah. Sheβs your problem. They were right. DHS is still shut.

Oof. Multiple THAAD radar systems have reportedly been destroyed by Iran. Thatβs bad.
Iβve also seen some surprise that Russia is providing Iran with targeting data for US forces, but that was expected. Weβve been providing Ukraine with targeting data for 4 years.

The Trump regime is still hiding Epstein records detailing an allegation that Trump sexually assaulted a girl who was age 13-15. We know these records existed at some point. The law requires their release.

Liberals have a huge opportunity: if they win, they can lock down the majority of this court thru 2030.
That means theyβd have it in the next presidential race, a big democracy guardrail.

A DOJ source says FBI agents found the woman who accused Trump of sexually assaulting her as a child to be credible:
"They would not have interviewed her four times if they thought she was lying."
there's a thing I like to call "load-bearing assumptions", that you don't notice until they're suddenly gone (e.g the air you breath has oxygen in it).
the post-ww2 order is a load-bearing assumption for basically the entirety of american life. trump took a sledgehammer to it in the last 90 days.
Judging from the prose, the Pentagon appears to be using AI to announce the death of soldiers. If itβs not AI, itβs a person who simply does not care.
This is interesting. But it is more interesting that Trump is rewarding Moscow for doing this by helping Russia sell oil, repeating Russian propaganda points, and senselessly burning through weapon stocks.
