Stephen Miller now following Trump's lead and saying he has nothing to do with Project 2025. 1. His organization is on the Project 2025 advisory board. 2. He recorded a video as part of Project 2025 training tools 3. You can see Mandate for Leadership, the Project 2025 publication in the background

Hey @kevinmkruse.bsky.social I'm currently most of the way through Ken Burns' Vietnam War PBS series and finding it really well done. I know you had issues with his Civil War series (which I haven't seen) featuring Shelby Foote so wondering if you've seen the Vietnam one and your thoughts? thanks!

John Oliver did a deep dive on Project 2025 tonight that should be required viewing. Frightening shit. Hasn't been posted on their YT channel yet, but it's a must watch. Great reporting.

The people pushing for other people to have more kids are, without fail, bad parents and bad people who make the world worse. There's a reason for this: if America needed more people, we'd let more immigrants in. Simple. The only reason to push native birth specifically is if you're a huge racist.

I was thinking of exactly this, Dart, when for one of the bumpers in G1 they were playing Aerosmith, assuming for the Boston connection, and just wondered what would happen if they threw in some Ed OG

I saw in the trailer there was a movie about Black Bostonians & immediately went to see it… That film was “American Fiction”. Some of the best money I spent so far in 2024.

This @chrislhayes.bsky.social segment is really good but the panel reaction from some right wing outlet I've never heard of at the 2:30 mark is ethereal. That is so much dead air. The couple of "uh" prompts aren't enough to get the train back on the tracks. Just wild. youtu.be/cvasDkMWdXg?...

Compare Muller’s refusal to say if Trump broke the law to Hur’s gift to Republicans. Or how Barr treated Mueller’s report to the story below. MAGA reaps enormous gains from asymmetrical decency, rules following, and adherence to norms, while constantly proclaiming the world is out to get them.
The White House asked DOJ to remove some of the critical comments about President Biden from the special counsel's report, arguing they violated department policy. DOJ went ahead over the White House's objections. www.politico.com/f/?id=000001...

The fact that he himself is an immigrant who receives government subsidies, is uninvolved in his children’s lives and abuses drugs kind of gives the game away here
So, um, the wealthiest person in the world is using his platform tonight to spout grotesque theories about immigrants and Democrats and criminals and voter fraud.
