This is the kind of reporting the mainstream is missing!

"The idea that this hub, built over decades, was significantly degraded in the space of a few days by a regional player is unimaginable. "That the US could not prevent and defend against a predictable attack on a Fleet Headquarters is quite startling." www.militarytimes.com/opinion/2026...

Jane Fonda just laid out how authoritarianism operates: war is a distraction technique to strip rights at home while focusing eyes abroad. Manufactured conflict is about power consolidation. If you cannot see through the blatant playbook by now, you are willfully blind.

Maybe I'm a big dumb dumb, but everything else aside, if you shoot and kill the person driving a car towards you, isn't the car going to keep going towards you with no possibility of breaking or swerving? Like, that's exactly what happened after Ross shot Good.

The White House knows it tried to steal an election and stage a coup in Jan. 2021 with their help. Now it wants to bury the evidence beneath pardons. State AGs, you know what you need to do.

Me on Trump pardoning disgraced former congressman George Santos: "It's completely nuts, but he's completely nuts — and so is Santos, maybe that's the thing that joins them all together... Trump finds a fraudster appealing."
