They can't control what's happening now, so they're trying to control what gets said about it.

It’s almost like Putin and Netanyahu control our foreign policy.

The guy who is SecDef because he was a propaganda network talking head says more propaganda is the solution.

UNC professors said 'no' to releasing their syllabuses before. Now, they don't have much of a choice. UNC professor Chris Petsko initially declined when the Oversight Project requested his syllabus this past summer. But after a new UNC System regulation, the second time a request came, he said he felt...

“When asked what effective safeguards against the potential harassment of instructors for the content of their syllabuses would look like, Hatcher was direct: ‘Don't write a policy that invites people to threaten your faculty.’”

Trump’s military excursion, into an abyss The evident fact is that the president is nuts.

“There’s no reason to expect that Trump’s Iranian debacle will prevent him from lighting yet another match of chaos or conflict. In fact, experience teaches that Trump bristling from a failure makes him more, not less, likely to do something equally stupid, and to do so soon.”

Someone in NYC should do interviews with middle-school kids who take the subway to and from school every day, to see if they have any advice for Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy who can't seem to go a single day without pissing himself in fear over them.

Sen. Slotkin: “There's press reports that the Russians are helping target US ships and aircraft…If Russia is helping kill U.S. forces, we have crossed a Rubicon…We have to take decisive action on that, and instead, we're giving them breaks on oil.”

I don’t think unconditional surrender is imminent.

I keep seeing people ask about the 25th Amendment.

Guys. His entire Cabinet is walking around in shoes that don’t fit because they’re scared to take them off.

The 25th is never happening.

🧵 So, political desperation combined with breathtaking incompetence would be the take-home here. Awesome.

White House: War Isn’t Hell. War Is Effing Awesome. You Are Hell. Once, war was justified by ho-hum lies about WMDs. Now, it’s Childish Gambino grooves and the Book of Revelation. Get with the program.

Operation Epic Fury is just a bunch of men, several with extremely violent personal histories and fantasies, jacked up on geopolitical rage and a meme set that combines medieval superstitions, Call of Duty, and the glorification of violence as an end in itself. trib.al/4yacev4

Trump won't say if he'll send armed agents to the polls. So Dems are suing to find out “Trump wants to bully and cheat his way through a midterm election that he knows Republicans will lose, but we won’t let him,” DNC Chairman Ken Martin said.

🚨BREAKING: Democrats filed a lawsuit Tuesday demanding President Donald Trump’s administration unveil their plans, if any, for deploying federal officers or troops on election day. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

I wish this take weren’t spot-on, but it is.

The Trump administration’s defense of the Iran school bombing is the same script they used for the Epstein file “discrepancies” and the ICE shooting “video errors.” They count on a tired public to look away while the gap between their explanations and the casualties keeps widening.

NYT: The video “shows a Tomahawk cruise missile striking a naval base beside the school in the town of Minab on Feb. 28. The U.S. military is the only force involved in the conflict that uses Tomahawk missiles.”

This is the man Senators who present themselves as serious human beings are going to rubber stamp into the office of Director of Homeland Security. Show some self-respect and some love of country and vote no.

I find solace in the news that the Virginia legislature has prohibited public schools from teaching that Jan. 6 was a “peaceful protest.”

Education and truth ultimately is what will prevent this national disaster from reoccurring.

That, and patient, thorough accountability.
