“There always have been Russia connections, because the Kremlin owns these people. And that’s why everything that they do is designed to hurt the United States and help Russia. Everything. And it’s always been that way. And if you look at it through that lens, everything makes sense.”
Ramble On: The Umar Kremlev Wedding
A bareknuckle-brawling Russian oligarch with close ties to Putin sprung for the wedding of Donald Trump, Jr. and his new wife Bettina. But sure, Trump/Russia’s a hoax.

The whole graf is hilarious

The film (that I have not seen) “falls short on every dimension”
I haven't seen the film. This means I cannot confidently assess its editing, corroboration, or the full testimony it presents. I would love to live in a world in which I could wait, watch the movie, and have a sober debate about its claims. Unfortunately, the discourse online is not so patient. That's why it's necessary to examine the argument its makers have published, the reporting on which it builds, and the standards by which its allegations should be judged. The film falls short on every dimension.

repubs in Texas "squandered a right-leaning electorate and cultural grip on issues in ways that mirror how we could see national GOP falter"

excellent analysis and #MustRead from @aselrod.bsky.social

🎩 @capitolhunters.bsky.social
Liberal Currents excerpt with my highlights: Now, I want to offer a silver lining. What’s also happening in Texas is that Republicans have made a number of races competitive that Democrats usually have little hope of winning. They’ve squandered a right-leaning electorate and a cultural grip on the issues in ways that mirror how we could see the national GOP falter. Ken Paxton is narrowly trailing James Talarico, who would be the first Texas Democrat elected to the Senate since Lloyd Bentsen in 1988. Greg Abbott faces a bonafide contest against Gina Hinojosa in his bid to serve a fourth term as governor. And so it’s with both apprehension and a bit of hope that I say Texas is the future of the Republican Party.

for undocumented immigrants not already disappeared, tortured or murdered it’s utter chaos in court. all by design obviously.

This is fascism 101: Trump regime has commandeered administrative immigration courts, fired judges and packed the courts with Miller hacks and this is what happens:

“Mega master” hearings, in which judges handle more than 100 immigration cases on a single docket, are purposefully creating chaos.

New “mega master” hearings are packing more than 100 cases onto some dockets, creating long waits outside the Brickell courthouse.
