The president's authority as "commander in chief" refers to the military only. The president cannot use executive orders to expand the definition of who is eligible for birthright citizenship under the Fourteenth Amendment. The president's aide saying these things is a virulent white nationalist.

No, #BrokenPost, you should concentrate on the scandalous takeaway from Rand Paul's threats against Fauci, medicine, science, and justice. The sad takeaway from Fauci's refusal to testify www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

Rand Paul is an asshole The biggest issue leading to Covid was that the republicans cut the budgets for the agencies to track and control disease outbreaks Did they learn from this mistake ? Certainly not. Who will they scapegoat for the next pandemic? apple.news/AqihpP0BsS3W...

The refrain went: “Feeling brilliant is akin to feeling insane/ because it invariably involves the realization/that no matter what you’ve got to say/nobody can understand what you’re saying”

That’s why it’s a trap, even if everyone is always telling you how smart you are, to believe them. Much less to build a social edifice on it into the heart of your empire. Doesn’t take a genius to figure that out. Real thinkers communicate honestly and clearly.

An MSNBC anchor just definitively claimed Padilla didn't identify himself when video clearly shows he did. So fucking irresponsible. This is how lies spread.

A man who holds the title of President of the United States, who took an oath to protect and defend the Constitution, who then says he doesn’t know if he’d uphold the Constitution, is unfit to be president and should be removed.

Do not obey in advance to a wildly unpopular one term president who is currently fighting wars on multiple fronts for seemingly no reason

Josh Marshall@joshtpm.bsky.social

Let's wake up. He's REALLY unpopular for this early in a term or really ever. President's this unpopular are already losing. Power becomes harder to assert when your power is fading.

1. LLM-generated code tries to run code from online software packages. Which is normal but 2. The packages don’t exist. Which would normally cause an error but 3. Nefarious people have made malware under the package names that LLMs make up most often. So 4. Now the LLM code points to malware.

The Trump regime is working to deter dissent. Anyone who goes against Trump could end up on a target list. This is having a chilling effect on five major pillars of society — universities, science, the media, the law, and the arts. It's straight out of the fascist playbook.

Yep. I saved hundreds or even thousands of dollars a month just from switching from Substack to self-hosted Ghost. I pay a roughly flat $85/month now (~$75 for mailsending, $10 for hosting), vs. 10% of all my subscription income.

digiday.comFormer Substack creators say they’re earning more on new platforms that offer larger shares of subscription revenueFormer Substack writers who exited the platform in early 2024 are making more money on Beehiiv and Ghost thanks to their fixed pricing models.

It’s chaos for everyone outside the little corruption bubble.

Robert Reich@rbreich.bsky.social

Any traders with inside information that Trump was going to walk back his tariffs — some of them, presumably, Trump family members and cronies — just made a fortune. It all feels like chaos until you look more closely at who is winning.

I once spent an afternoon trying to entertain a librarian, must’ve told her 10 puns - you’d think one would’ve made her laugh, right? but no pun in ten did.

A book fell on my head. It left a bookmark. I think it may have been spine on me. I need better shelf control. It was a long tome coming. My appendix was unharmed. It spoke volumes. These puns are off the wall.

what if we addressed predatory banking fees or explored options like postal banking instead of pointing people to an even more predatory shadow financial system

Young men don't open bank accounts. They are too expensive. They download coin base or Robinhood app and buy crypto. That's their savings If one party pushes that number higher. They vote for em. Gensler/Biden caused those savings to go down. The demo with the biggest change was young men
