There are 12 chapters in Laurence Rees’s book “The Nazi Mind” people should know:

Spreading conspiracy theories, using us versus them, leading as a hero, corrupting youth, conniving with the elite, attacking human rights, exploiting faith, valuing enemies, eliminating resistance, escalating racism, killing at a distance, stoking fear.

When I use the word fascism I’m not being hyperbolic.

I’m grounding it in a historical analysis of what leaders do when they want to be authoritarian.

We didn’t even get to the naming. He wants his name on the US dollar, inside the passport, and his face on everything the American people touch when they interact with their own government.

Washington wouldn’t have done that. Eisenhower wouldn’t have done that. Reagan wouldn’t. Obama certainly didn’t.

The CEO of Anthropic just told the Wall Street Journal exactly which jobs are gone first.

$10 billion raise, $350 billion valuation, the man building the model that automates them.

He didn't talk in metaphors -> He named industries and timelines.

Most people will hear about this when it shows up in their layoff announcement.

You're hearing it now in just 30 minutes.

Tucker just did a 45 min monologue on the Op to oust Massie and it was scathing. It's so good I'm not clipping a portion of it because you need to listen to the whole thing

Battle lines drawn. No retreat. No surrender. No fear. Feels good

We all know what we're up against, now.

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

Here's how the corruption works:

Thursday: RJ Reynolds donates $5M to Trump

Saturday: Trump invites RJR execs to Mar a Lago; execs ask to loosen regs on flavored vapes; Trump calls up RFK Jr. and tells him to change it

Friday: FDA changes the policy

NOBODY showed up to Ed Gallrein's victory party. Apparently there wasn't a single Kentucky state lawmaker at the event. Does this make sense to.....anyone? Make it make sense?

[Mr. Gerald Wayne @geraldwayne]

THE NUMBERS DON’T WHISPER. THEY SCREAM.

Massie gained votes.

Turnout doubled.

His opponent vote didn’t grow.

It exploded.

2024 opponent vote: 12,664
2026 opponent vote: 57,822

That’s a 356.6% surge.

Total turnout jumped from 52,593 to 105,361.

Maybe it’s real.

Maybe it’s clean.

Maybe every ballot checks out.

Then prove it.

An audit is not fear.

An audit is verification.

If voters are expected to accept the result then officials should welcome the review.

Call the Kentucky Secretary of State.

Call county election boards in KY-04.

Demand a full audit of the Republican primary vote.

Ballot count.

Chain of custody.

Machine logs.

Absentee totals.

Precinct-level turnout.

Trust is earned in daylight.

Open the books.

[Chris Martenson @chrismartenson]

Here's my hypothesis.

What we just witnessed in KY with the Massie loss was a 'struggle session.' It was designed to send one message: "We're fully in control, you have no power, and you might as well not even waste the time to vote."

It was an operation designed to inflict demoralization. Same as not being allowed to be on the beach alone during 'Covid.' That's it's complete nonsense **IS** the point.

Same as publicly executing Charlie Kirk. Same energy, same intention, & the same people. The point is to demonstrate their power, with the target being your sense of agency and control.

We no longer need to wonder why the Trump administration has zero interest in finding CK's actual killer. It's the same people.

Who was that figure in white seen leaving the roof of the Sorenson building at UVU that fateful day? That nobody cares on Tyler's 'defense team' or with any investigative authority is meant to be both obvious to the thinking person, as well as demoralizing.

That's the play; fracture and divide us. Demoralize people to the point of giving up before they can even begin to organize, let alone fight. It's a form of cognitive warfare, and it's been running non-stop since Covid first appeared in 2020.

Why? Because someone hates America and its people and wishes to see us taken down.

The Barbarians are inside the gates.

That's what the Massie loss means to me.

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

The slush fund.

The ballroom.

The IRS get-out-of-jail-free card.

Donald Trump isn’t serving the American people — he’s serving himself. And he thinks you’re dumb enough to fall for it.

[Shawn Ryan @ShawnRyan762]

Massie: $5.5M raised. Average donor gave $100. His opposition: $32 million. Three billionaires, Secretary Hegseth on the ground, four presidential attacks in one day, all to silence the guy fighting for the Epstein files. Trump calls elections rigged. Look in the mirror. Go Massie.

Thomas Massie: “This is an inflection point.”

“If I win, we can demonstrate that … you can fight the righteous fights.”

“And live to fight another day.”

“If we empower a dozen congressman … AIPAC can’t spend $30 million on a dozen people.”

“It means that you don’t have to be a rubber stamp on foreign policy.”

“This week, we voted on a war powers resolution. The final vote was like 212 to 212.”

“But if there had been 12 Republicans, it would’ve been easy.”

“When you get down to like six Republicans … they go threaten a water project in that congressman’s district.”

“Or they say, ‘your political consultants are all gonna quit you in your re-election, because we’re gonna tell their 30 other clients to fire them if they keep working for you.’”

“Which is what happened to me.”

“They can’t do that to a dozen congressmen.”

“This will mean a lot when I win to the people who are already there.”

[Fred @Grand_handsomer]

Lot of people seem to think this but I’ll tell you this about @RepThomasMassie about a year ago I had a dispute with the fiscal court in my county. I’m not in Massie’s district but I thought it was worth asking him for advice. He responded to me within the hour and gave me all the advice he could. I was extremely grateful because it was a massive issue for me and other land owners in the area and he was nice enough to take the time to chat with me even though there was nothing in it for him. I tried calling every other politician and Rand Paul’s office was the the only other group that got back to me. Massie responded to me in like 15 minutes and couldn’t have been nicer or more helpful. Politicians in Kentucky who actually represent me didn’t give a shit but a congressmen in dc did. Take that for what it’s worth

[Arnaud Bertrand @RnaudBertrand]

Pretty incredible that, 3 full days after the trip ended, US official channels are still relentlessly posting positive content on Trump in China.

Genuinely can't think of another foreign trip by a US president in recent years that the administration tried to hype so much.

And, tellingly, it happened with remarkably little pushback from US media. Which suggests the era of reflexive China bashing in Washington may largely be behind us: we may slowly be arriving at the "acceptance" stage of the five stages of grief.

[Rev. Benjamin Cremer @Brcremer]

Jesus' harshest words weren't directed towards "sinners."

Jesus' harshest words were directed towards those who used their religion as a tool of oppression and self serving power.

Jesus' harshest words were directed towards religious hypocrisy.

May we remember this.
