Seems it's no coincidence why Trump picked Pam Bondi as his attorney general. She's been helping him cover up his connections to Epstein since back in her Florida AG days smh.

Trump DOJ Now Says Epstein List Doesn't Exist

YouTube
FBI: Quick, distract them from the Epstein files!

Today is 30 days that the US military has occupied Los Angeles.

The fiscal hawks never for a moment think of the absurd amount of money being spent to terrorize civilians, children, harass families—all to satisfy the ego of an aspiring fascist. This is not freedom. This is tyranny. And unsurprisingly the NRA is nowhere to be found because they were never actually about anti-tyranny, they were always about pro white supremacy.

Oooh, and then what happened, JD?

Watching Democratic Party leadership campaigning against Zohran Mamdani instead of Trump’s giant fascism bill, and the New York Times adopt an internet Nazi troll as its de facto editor to go after Mamdani, all because of some milquetoast democratic socialism, all in the span of about a week, is such an astonishing confirmation of everything the left has been saying about these institutions for decades.

Like…it would have been difficult to script such a pitch-perfect meltdown over a brown guy who wants free buses in New York City.

This is what the NY Times chose to highlight from the Netanyahu/Trump meeting, compared to Al Jazeera.

You decide which is the important news.

There is a new setting for server operators in #Mastodon 4.4, under Administration -> Server Settings -> Discovery, called "Allow external sites to see your Mastodon server as a traffic source". If you're running a server for a larger group of people there is no privacy downside to enabling this, and it will help make the fediverse more visible as a traffic source to the rest of the web.

With Mastodon v4.4.0 instance owners can enable HTTP referrers. That means:

If somebody clicks a link in a Mastodon post (e.g. to a news article), the link target owner (such as the news site operator) can see that a user from that instance has visited their website.

They do _only_ get the instance domain (e.g. metalhead.club). No information about the user!

I've enabled this setting, because I am sure that it will increase awareness of Mastodon's existence. 💪

Edit: (in previous versions, Mastodon did not send referrer-Headers)

REPORTER: What specific actions did local officials take between 1:14am, when the first flood emergency alert came out, and hours later when the river started flooding?

KERR COUNTY SHERIFF: We're in the process of trying to put a timeline. That is not my priority at this time.

REPORTER: Was the emergency manager awake?

SHERIFF: I can't tell you at this time

"One thing about Americans is: we don't like to be told what to do. We're pathological about it. It's a genuine problem sometimes.

If masked gunmen ride into town and start issuing orders, a LOT of people are going to have a problem with that, regardless of who they voted for.

If the United States decides to declare war on its own people, so be it. They can't defeat an insurgency overseas and they can't defeat one here."

If anyone in this administration is talking, you should assume they are lying. Miller especially. It’s the only way to show fealty to a president who lies nonstop.
@georgetakei Someone had to take the fall for the ICE fuckup. But now that lawyer has been fired, it's OK to repeat what he said in a court.
@georgetakei Voting Trump was a two-off mistake.
@georgetakei Aren't they trying to do the same smear campaign against Luigi Mangione? They cannot comprehend why common people would be sympathetic to him.
@georgetakei I don't even regard their mouth-noises as words. It's all primate dominance display.
@georgetakei
Over 50,000 lies since he came down the escalator
@georgetakei
If their lips are moving, they're lying
