"You shall not make wrongful use of the name of the Lord your God, for the Lord will not acquit anyone who misuses his name." Remember when we were taught that all the third commandment means is to not use the word "G**D***"?

Six years ago this week, an unplanned disaster engulfed the world. Trump catastrophically mismanaged it. The economy collapsed and 1m+ died.

Now reelected, he’s on the verge of topping that, only this time the disaster is entirely of his own making.

The results may be even worse.

β€œI didn’t vote for THIS,” say the manosphere podcasters who simply had no way of knowing that Trump would lie about being a populist to get into office and then govern like a autocratic lunatic once in power, other than the fact that he did it for 4 entire years before that.

Trump told us who he was in 2012. Will we finally believe him today? Trump has always been an election denier. He has always vilified voting. He has always started with lies, escalated to the courts, and ultimately embraced violent rhetoric.

Everyone knows Donald Trump has been an election denier since 2020. Some know that about 2016. But few know that it started in 2012.

After Obama won, Trump posted: β€œLets fight like hell and stop this great and disgusting injustice!”

Read and share.

The Desire for Terror And the defense of democracy

A purpose of the war on Iran might well be to provoke a terrorist attack inside the United States. This would provide Donald Trump with a pretext to try to cancel or β€œfederalize” the coming Congressional elections.

TUCKER: β€œI flew to DC 3x to try to talk Trump out of going to war with Iran… Then I told him to take killing an 86yo cleric and call it a win… He’s watching Fox and getting fake polls that tell him this is a 90-10 issue. There’s an info vacuum.”

The national suicide being committed by the Republican-led United States has no historical precedent. Centuries from now (if humanity survives that long), historians will struggle to explain how such a thing was possible.

there's a thing I like to call "load-bearing assumptions", that you don't notice until they're suddenly gone (e.g the air you breath has oxygen in it).

the post-ww2 order is a load-bearing assumption for basically the entirety of american life. trump took a sledgehammer to it in the last 90 days.

Trump has fully shattered the world we all grew up in. It’s a dramatic break from how things worked before, even compared to the Iraq War and other misadventures - the United States abruptly tumbling over a cliff and becoming literally more reckless and domineering than Putin’s Russia.

Kristi Noem has done a stunning amount of damage and it’s good she’s gone.

But this doesn’t change the fact that we need a complete overhaul of DHS, impartial investigations into the killings of two American citizens, and information on children that were taken from Minnesota.

Don’t let the door hit you on the way out, Kristi Noem.

If you're at the airport and Kristi Noem is doing the ominous little message from the TSA screens, you no longer have to do anything she says. Leave your laptop in the case, whatever.

This is the message that needs to be repeated by the Democrats. There is a tomorrow, and there will be accountability for the corruption and anti-democratic behaviour of officials.

No, this is not retribution, and no this doesn't apply to voters.

Balint to Noem: "You're the secretary of DHS -- for now. And you think you're immune from accountability. But I promise you this: one day he is not gonna be president anymore. And when that day comes, we will still be here. And in hearings like this, we are going to continue to prove your guilt."

Trump wants to distract from the failing economy, ICE murders, and his corruption scandals

Netanyahu wants to distract from the Gaza genocide, West Bank settler attacks, and his own corruption scandals.

Both are using the same playbook: wage war to blot out everything else.

Hillary Clinton: This institutional failure is designed to protect 1 political party & one public official, rather than to seek truth & justice for the victims & survivors.

All they do is bullshit, create chaos, & start wars.
