Openly bragging about ethnic cleansing.

That's how you know they're the Good Guys.
Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich: “The thorough cleansing that we are carrying out now in southern Lebanon is unprecedented.

“They have nowhere to return to. Look at how it looks.

“And by the way, the world isn’t stopping us.”

I like that in becoming a nazi, you get glowing coverage as a brave iconoclast, and then when you stop being a nazi, you’re get glowing coverage as a brave dissident. Money coming and going. Only way you lose is having normal opinions like “racism bad” bsky.app/profile/trac...
OK, Washington Post, enlighten me. What is the bright side of being a Nazi?

@nickroche.bsky.social Dunno if you saw the new Awakening short at the end of TFTM re-release, but it definitely felt like a spiritual cousin to Last Bot Standing and I loved it

Just filed my piece. This case is even worse than I thought. They're not just coming for Black people's hair. They're coming for ALL CIVIL RIGHTS LAWS passed pursuant to the Spending Clause.

These fucking people must be stopped.

Yeah, if this is why he's been banned or suspended, that's ridiculous.
Did Ken White (popehat) get banned for this post?

This is a bad ban.

I don’t ever call for death on anyone (though I also don’t mind when it happens) but this isn’t even doing that… just kinda pointing out a truth that nothing will stop musk because so many of you support his behavior

This is exactly it. The Constitution does not distinguish who gets due process, which means ALL people deserve ALL of it ALWAYS. These so-called textualists are reading fascism into a clearly anti-fascist rights-based Constitution and it's mind-blowing how craven they are about it.
What’s really at stake here, even though neither the majority nor dissent speaks of it in these terms, is the presumption of innocence and due process requirements that give it meaning. Our awful Supreme Court majority decided to reduce the scope of those protections today.
The Supreme Court's fifth and final decision is Blanche v. Lau, another 6–3 split. Per Thomas, the government does NOT require clear and convincing evidence that a green card holder committed a crime before divesting them of their lawful status at the border.

New in PN: @donaldonethics.bsky.social sounds off on Trump's J6 slush fund

“It’s a signal to the violent element of his base that if you engage in violence for him, you will not just be safe from prosecution, but made whole and then some. So it’s not just backward-looking, it’s forward-looking."

Old InfoWars' staff appear to have also done some ransacking on the way out. This is some of the property the families planned to eventually sell off to collect on this judgment, in a studio we were prepared to pay up to take over.

Every single activist group I'm part of is run by middle aged women. Local groups all the way to national orgs.

I'm part of more than half a dozen of these groups.
A final thought: the most important, efficacious, & sizeable faction on the left is plain old normie Dems, "wine moms," "resistance libs," whatever condescending term you prefer. They're the ones doing the actual work. But they are largely ignored by media, because they're organized & led by women.

Heather Cox Richardson has a larger audience than almost any dudefluencer. More informed. Better values & policy preferences. And yet there are no profiles, no elevation or lionization, because there's *nothing* US media is less interested in than middle-aged lib women. No diner interviews for them.
