In 1975 I decided to hitchhike to Antarctica. I only made it as far as Argentina, where I fell in love with a handsome guerrilla. Soon I became a target in the Dirty War. I had to escape, but my passport was a death sentence and the military was closing in on us . #A #mem #PitMad

New from @nytimes: “The Times editorial board has compiled a list of 12 markers of democratic erosion, with help from scholars who have studied this phenomenon. The sobering reality is that the United States has regressed, to different degrees, on all 12.”

MISINFORMATION ALERT || This WAPO article is stunningly manipulative reporting. The reports are not internally generated by the OIG; they are hundreds of third-party submissions which it needs to review, precisely to determine the “credibility” of the information submitted. And

You can do that in Manhattan too

.@GovPritzker: “They've done something even more insidious: they've decided to shut down the SNAP machines so that they can't be used. So even if we were to put money into SNAP accounts, they couldn't be accessed by someone who has a SNAP card.”

I stand by my Feb assessment that DOGE is a coup by other means. Embedding a parallel civil service that operates with no oversight and is loyal to a private individual is one of this regime's innovations.

They're starting to build massive "involuntary treatment" centers for unhoused people. Concentration camps for the crime of being poor and sick. https://t.co/4pRO6jHx30

Trump just handed over a trillion fucking dollars’ worth of U.S. military technology like it was a souvenir. He’s not defending American power — he’s selling it off like a damn pawnshop hustler, trading our hard-won strength for scraps of political leverage.

Here's an example of how Trump's corruption factory works. 1. Coinbase put $46M into elections to help Trump allies. 2. Sends him a huge check for his inauguration. 3. Trump drops SEC lawsuit against Coinbase. 4. Trump demands big donation from Coinbase for ballroom. Done.

Yeah, The Daily Show is absolutely cooking Trump with this one. They turned his military parade moment into a dog show parody, calling him “lively, aggressive, and incredibly horny.” Peak satire. Trump’s ego just got treated like a Westminster contestant.

“When I said ‘aunt’, I was speaking about my father’s cousin. By ‘father’ I mean my uncle’s accountant. And by ‘cousin’ I’m referring to their neighbour’s daughter’s classmate. Twice removed.”

Hamas are lying about our hostages and here’s the proof: Yesterday, Hamas terrorists were filmed removing body remains from a prepared structure and re-burying them nearby, before summoning Red Cross representatives to stage a false “discovery” for photographers. Despite

One week after Trump pardoned Binance’s owner (for a stunning array of crimes related to terrorist and sex predator financing), Binance starts promoting Trump crypto. The White House is a full time, 24/7 corruption machine.

Trump Org’s income in the first half of 2024 was $51 million. In the first half of 2025 it rose to $864 million. A massive percentage came from foreigners. It should be the biggest scandal in the history of American politics. But few even care. https://t.co/LOycrcd3Ha
