When a leader in the White House says empathy is a fundamental weakness, they mean all of us can fuckin die and they could not be bothered to give less of a shit

Well, it seems Hamas used the ceasefire to build its forces up for another October 7th, just like they said they would. What do you know?

Putin has created an overheated military economy, making a return to normal potentially result in a “hard landing,”
- Reuters columnist Pierre Brianson

The apparent resilience of the Russian economy is an illusion. Meanwhile, the end of Russia’s war in Ukraine remains uncertain, despite the proposal for a 30-day ceasefire. Even if a truce is reached, it is unlikely to shift Russia away from a defense-driven economy.

The stories of these Americans getting fired by Musk and Republicans in general need to get spread far and wide. They're so sad to read, but we've got to get more Americans to wake up to the damage the GOP is doing to the USA!

“The reason you should care about this is not that it could happen to you but that it is already happening to others. It is happening to people who, we claim, have rights just because we are human. It is happening to me, personally.” #MashaGessen https://www.nytimes.com/2025/03/17/opinion/trump-trans-denationalizing.html

We’re in the midst of #authoritarian takeover of the US govt. It’s been coming and coming, and not everybody is prepared to read it that way. The characters regarded as people to emulate, like #Orban, #Putin all indicate strategy is to create an illiberal #democracy or an authoritarian democracy or a strongman democracy. You neutralize the branches of #government; you neutralize the media; you neutralize universities, and you’re on your way. #trump #maga https://www.chronicle.com/article/were-in-the-midst-of-an-authoritarian-takeover

National Security reasons my scrawny liberal ass.

This veered into publicity stunt territory as well as noncompliance with a Federal Court order which specifically forbade TFG’s sneaky actions.

He’s like a hungry felonious octopus.

Trump blew off a judge's order. (Note, the Axios Marc Caputo piece admitting that says they relied on lawyers, but doesn't substantiate that, and makes ZERO claim Trump was involved.) But as much as they're teeing up a conflict they think SCOTUS will uphold, they're also trying to target a judge.

Lawrence Tribe: "Just as Hitler rose from the ashes and grievances of World War I, it looks like Trump’s dream is to reduce the United States to rubble so that he can turn what’s left of our once great country into his base of aggressively expansionist operations in alliance with Vladimir Putin." #politics #danger
