This dandy from the WSJ Editorial Board:

"Since Mr. Trump declassified the memo, we can quote the part he didn’t. “Vote tabulation systems would be difficult to manipulate on a wide enough scale to compromise election results,” it says. “The systems in each voting location are not connected to the Internet or to each other, and many methods for exploiting them rely on physical proximity.” Achieving it across many jurisdictions “would be difficult” and “audits and paper trails very likely would uncover such an effort."

...
"Unfortunately, the message from Mr. Trump and others has been that America’s elections can’t be trusted, and the only hope is the SAVE America Act. Aside from being untrue, this is a political backfire for the GOP. If Republican voters believe it, and the bill falls short, then why waste time going to the polls in November? Has the GOP already forgotten how Mr. Trump’s fraud outbursts cost them two Senate seats in the 2021 Georgia runoffs?"

Remember folks, Trump filed 62 lawsuits claiming election fraud or interference, and he lost every single fucking case

a lot of people who claim to love this country actually just love capitalism and that they personally attained wealth through it

there’s no love for what actually unites America. there is zero civic pride. no care for the common good.

they don’t love the U.S. they love the USD.

For Renee Nicole Good
Killed by I.C.E. on January 7, 2026

by Amanda Gorman

They say she is no more,
That there her absence roars,
Blood-blown like a rose.
Iced wheels flinched & froze.
Now, bare riot of candles,
Dark fury of flowers,
Pure howling of hymns.

If for us she arose,
Somewhere, in the pitched deep of our grief,
Crouches our power,
The howl where we begin,
Straining upon the edge of the crooked crater
Of the worst of what we’ve been.

Change is only possible,
& all the greater,
When the labour
& bitter anger of our neighbors
Is moved by the love 
& better angels of our nature.

What they call death & void,
We know is breath & voice; 
In the end, gorgeously, 
Endures our enormity. 

You could believe departed to be the dawn
When the blank night has so long stood.
But our bright-fled angels will never be fully gone,
When they forever are so fiercely Good.

NEW: Data released by ICE shows that virtually the entire growth of detention in the last few months has been among people with no criminal record at all - no criminal convictions and no pending criminal charges.

Are Leftists Coming For You? Here's What the Data Says About Political Violence https://t.co/dpcKos2o3c

[Michael Harriot @michaelharriot]

Well actually…

A thread.

[Walter Masterson @waltermasterson]

A breakdown of mass shooters:

Straight males: 98%
Straight white male: 57%

Trans: .13%

If you’re focusing on the shooter being trans, just admit that you DO NOT care about mass shootings. Stop pretending you care about children being murdered, because you clearly do not.

[Democrats @TheDemocrats]

Vote them out.

[Simon Kuestenmacher @simongerman600]

In late May 2025, fires broke out across the Canadian Prairies. The smoke covered US skies too. Following a warm, dry spring, high winds fueled wildfires that have grown to seven times the ten-year average. More than 200 fires have broken out, most of them started by (really dumb) humans.

The funniest thing about this white-on-white social media violence is:

Elon is admitting he knowingly supported a pedophile to gain political power

Trump admits he was gonna give billions of our tax $$$ to Elon

Or they’re liars. Either way…

Remember what they said about DEI?

[Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth]

Pete Hegseth is a f*cking liar. This is so clearly classified info he recklessly leaked that could’ve gotten our pilots killed.

He needs to resign in disgrace immediately.

[Greg Carr @AfricanaCarr]

No one who voted for Trump should feel “betrayed.” Yes, he’s a white nationalist. But he is a narcissist and brain addled first. You weren’t betrayed. You want what he wants, you just misjudged the fact that his contempt extends to you too. You’re just that stupid.

How fake news is spread, through a combination of dishonesty and gullibility:

[Michael Harriot @michaelharriot]

When we searched Trump's executive orders for a clear definition of "DEI," there wasn't one.

But after we looked at THE RESULTS of his resegregation plan, the definition was clear:

DEI is a catchall term for "Anything that doesn't help white people." https://t.co/hyxLWpLQ8U

There's a very interesting connection between Mark Zuckerberg's right-wing turn and the guy who might be the most powerful person in American media. I haven't seen it mentioned anywhere, so...
