If you'e never read The Falling Man, you should do so. I post this on September 11th every year, and I find time to read it on this day every year. Still, in my eyes, the greatest piece of journalism I have ever read. https://t.co/gZgwzRoSgX
¿Qué pasa cuando algunos de los mejores periodistas son despedidos del Washington Post de Jeff Bezos?
Crean un nuevo periódico.
El buen periodismo depende de buenos periodistas. Si te gusta lo que lees, recuerda el nombre de quien lo investigó y escribió —y síguelo a donde vaya.
every news headline now is like Blueberries Will Kill You. Measles Is Back. Gas Costs Six Dollars. Gwyneth Paltrow Is Selling AI Drone Technology. You Are Being Watched. Three Billion More To Israel. like idk did we do it did we make america great again
Democrats should introduce national paid sick and parental leave and call it the MITCH Act. If you can be missing from your job for months as a U.S. Senator and still collect your full paycheck, working Americans should get the same deal.
I DO NOT want self-driving cars.
I DO NOT want humanoid robots.
I DO NOT want Al in every app I use.
I want clean water.
I want a stable climate.
I want a habitable planet.
How are we supposed to give a flying fuck that Elon is a trillionaire when the guy literally used his power to END programs that fed the poorest people on Earth?
Fuck that selfish asshole, and fuck his trillion dollars helping nobody but his damn self.
America must add an amendment to our Constitution giving citizens the power to remove a sitting President when Congress refuses to do their sworn duty.
I’ve been in Congress through divided governments, bitter fights, and historic crises. I’ve never seen anything like the last 24 hours.
Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson killed Republican Senate Majority Leader John Thune’s bipartisan deal to fund the TSA, Coast Guard, and FEMA.
It was a deal that had the support of Senate Republicans and Democrats alike, 100-0!
Why?
Because Johnson places his own political survival and fealty to Trump over all else, including long waits at airports or anything else.
We could have passed it in the House easily if only Johnson had allowed the vote to proceed. But instead he blew up the whole thing.
Where this goes next is anyone’s guess, but what’s very clear is that Johnson is the worst and most subservient speaker in modern American history.
EVERYTHING NEGATIVE THAT IS HAPPENING IN THE WORLD TODAY IS A DIRECT RESULT OF AMERICA HAVING THE MOST INCOMPETENT AND CORRUPT PRESIDENT EVER 🤷 BY NOT ARRESTING DONALD TRUMP J7 AMERICA MADE THE BIGGEST MISTAKE IN HISTORY 🤷
BREAKING: A newly obtained recording from Dec. 7, 2020 exposes Trump pressuring Georgia House Speaker David Ralston to call a special legislative session to OVERTURN the election he lost.
Trump even coached him on the cover story, telling Ralston to claim it’s “for transparency” and “to uncover fraud.” Then the most damning line:
“Who’s gonna stop you for that?”
Ralston’s reply says it all: “A federal judge, possibly.”
This was a sitting president actively probing how to illegally nullify an election, and joking about whether the courts could stop him.
Anyone still pretending Jan. 6 was a spontaneous protest is lying to themselves.
BREAKING: A new poll found that 97% of Americans want former AG Bill Barr to be deposed to find out why, in 2019, he killed the NM investigation into Epstein's Zorro Ranch that the files suggest could be filled with dead bodies, and why he worked as a fixer for the pedophiles.
THERE IS NO FUCKING SITUATION ROOM AT MAR-A-LAGO. THERE ARE MOLDY-ASS BEDBUG-INFESTED ROOMS, BUT THEY ARE NOT THE FUCKING SITUATION ROOM. THAT IS IN THE FUCKING WHITE HOUSE. IMAGINE IF JOE BIDEN PLANNED A WAR OUT OF SOME FUCKING ROOM IN HIS HOUSE. REPUBLICANS WOULD SHIT BLOOD.
Both Donald Trump and his Slovene-born escort spent years calling for Obama’s birth certificate. I am calling for Melania Trump’s legal immigration papers: How did she get an “Einstein” visa for extraordinary abilities despite her blatant lie under oath about her college degrees?
