...i like war movies. Just yesterday enjoyed War Dogs again. Bracing myself to have future war movies ruined, because we have a fascist authoritarian government that likes slop. Could be decades till we get another great war movie

Just as Kid Rock doesn't inspire pop culture anymore, might be deep cuts or references to the 80s. Top Gun, but even more MAGA. Military is all about the crypto too. What could go wrong, surely war movies will have a dip in public perception? 🤮 Stallone, of course, is MAGA. Who knows who else
It occurred to me that the same people who love the Iran war now and have little qualms about what has already unfolded, makes me think its likely Trump isn't just interested in profit by having power over movie and tv industries. He could be setting up more slop propaganda. It'll suck tho
me think the American era of humiliation will continue. There is no bottom. No adult or serious person that is changing the trajectory. Feel like this administration is set on making everything dumb for the long term. Cant get me more dumb, disastrous or rage bait-y? Of course it can. It will
Saw a skeet today that Trump favors Rubio to be his successor, and if your hoping any type of normalcy would be achieved after Trump, hoooo boy rest assured the dumb shit will continue. That he hasn't been impeached several times over, or that he hasn't gone enough pushback for war in Iran makes
Do you ever bolt upright, after some quiet time to yourself, with some possible dumb portent this administration could do to further humiliate the US? I bet they are excited about making dumb war movies, MAGA slop. Something dumb like Red Dawn, but about abortion or liberals or trans kids
He looks so sweaty and ill. It's like he has made a compact with the devil to do as much evil and damage as possible before he passes, from ??? illness he is carrying. In medieval days, sickness was caused by miasma and evil ghosts seeping out of the body. Confident JFK Jr would endorse that theory.
Those fuckers. I am incandescent
You can read about my winning lawsuit with @rcfp.org against DC MPD, and the resulting footage from the DOGE raid on USIP here:
Here's a thread featuring clips of key moments from the DC Metropolitan Police body camera footage of the March 17, 2025 DOGE raid on the US Institute of Peace that I obtained as a result of my FOIA lawsuit:
NEW — An obscure Navy contractor program is making Trump’s plans to quickly build out and supply immigrant concentration camps around the country a reality.
Here I explain WEXMAC TITUS, an acronym you need to understand:
Remember that time just under a year ago when Elon Musk's goons tried to steal a building?
Marisa has been all over this for the entire time and took a ton of effort to force this footage into the public light.
The least you can do is go scroll through her thread!
Hehe its too late US has already claimed him years ago as a cult favorite. But I agree!
This is also why art is important. I learned about the Troubles because of the Cranberries song Zombie. I was only six or seven at the time, but it was such a powerful and terrifying song and music video that I asked my family what it was about. They told me as best they could.
Tim Curry is a national treasure.
Will no one rid me of this meddlesome ayatollah?
you rubes. you complete and utter fools. anyone with a brain can see this is a multidimensional, metaphysical conflict. a conceptual battlefield. we've only barely begun to end the start of this thing.
Electing this guy twice is really bad. But the real reason the US cannot be trusted is that it has been unable to impeach him.
This is classic modern espionage. Instead of dark alleys and dead drops, recruitment now starts with a LinkedIn style job post. Fake consulting firms are an easy way for intelligence services to spot people with government access. #China #Espionage #Counterintelligence

The opening scene of my 2004 article 'Blind Into Baghdad' is an interview with Feith, at the Pentagon, on why it didn't make sense to plan for "the day after" in Iraq.
20+ years later, applying same 'logic' to Iran

Honestly I need historians to be the plaintiffs in every case I cover because if they make it to discovery you just KNOW those primary sources are going public.
Exhibit A: The American Historical Association uploading video depos of the DOGE bros to YouTube.

Let’s get one thing straight: We are not a Christian nation. We are a nation where you are free to be a Christian.
Your religion guides you, not all of us. It’s as simple as that.

Nobody else can give you the love you crave. I know mass media is eager to tell you otherwise, but the old adage is true. "Liking yourself, in a society that profits off your insecurity, is a radical act." I'd add, its also an act of compassion. A revolutionary act. It builds solidarity.
