- Reposted by CharlenerdBy the way, for those of you not in MN: Homan’s strategy was to withdraw some agents, so it felt like we were in the denouement of the crisis, and then escalate hard against observers. They’re being incredibly aggressive with observers now. National media may not want to check out just yet

- Reposted by CharlenerdCan’t believe that the guy who ran for president on a racist lie is tweeting out conspiracy theories, and racist pictures of the Obamas. He’s told us who he is again and again for the last decade.
- Reposted by CharlenerdHOLD UP. This headline from the @wsj.com is dead wrong - No one at the actual opening ceremonies thinks the US team was being booed. Come on! The CBC broadcasters & people in the stadium are all crystal clear that JD VANCE WAS BEING BOOED, not the team.
- Reposted by CharlenerdProps to NPR for leading the newscast w/ the president's racist post. But, c'mon...they're not false narratives. They're lies. Words matter (Once again, don't give me the 'but we don't know what he knows or is thinking.')
- Reposted by CharlenerdOn a similar note, as Mamdani continues to notch W after W you’re going to start seeing opinion pieces about how this could never work in any city other than New York, etc., etc. Do not engage! It’s just entrenched power bullshit and that’s all! Don’t let them make that a conversation!
- Reposted by CharlenerdEvery damn day he does something crazy and the entire MAGA leadership bends over backwards to pretend it wasn't crazy and to explain it away. And then a few hours go by and he comes out and says "no, I did the crazy thing on purpose." And repeat. And the media never seems to remember that.

- Reposted by CharlenerdLet’s be honest: in many of these winter Olympic “sports”, the snow is doing most of the work. An unexpected thaw would expose these so-called athletes for the frauds they are
- Reposted by CharlenerdMilan is where Italians pelted Mussolini’s corpse with vegetables before stringing it up upside down in a square.
- Reposted by CharlenerdVance undermining the US Olympic Team would be too on the nose
- Reposted by CharlenerdThis galaxy is VERY tiny—much much smaller than our own Milky Way—& incredibly distant. But we can see it AND distinguish its shape! How? The light we see from it is from SO LONG AGO that the Universe was MUCH smaller at the time: we see it as it was when it was close enough to us to look big!! 🤯
- Reposted by CharlenerdSo he personally admits now that a staffer did not post this without his knowledge

- Reposted by CharlenerdInternal White House meetings going on, like, "Hopefully the racism will distract from the pedophilia which will distract from the killings which will distract from the pedophilia again which will distract from the economy which will distract from the pedophilia a third time"
- Reposted by CharlenerdAmy Klobuchar running for Governor of Minnesota
- Reposted by CharlenerdNeither the President nor Vice President of the United States can make a public appearance in front of a non-partisan crowd either in America or abroad without being booed.
- Reposted by CharlenerdThe gall. He shot a woman who posed no threat to him and then boasted about it as he and his colleagues falsely maligned *her* reputation to cover it up. The only question should whether his texts are admitted as evidence at his criminal trial.
- The feds say the release of a Border Patrol agent's texts could "sully" his reputation. But a judge says they're fair game, partly because Homeland Security has shown "zero concern" for the rep of Chicago's Marimar Martinez.

- Reposted by CharlenerdHis enemies spend a lot of time attacking that Mamdani’s a “social democrat.” What makes him special, I think, is that he’s an authentically moral person with empathy. That’s sadly rare in politics these days.
- Reposted by CharlenerdNot that it would be okay to do this to an undocumented immigrant either but THIS GUY IS A LEGAL IMMIGRANT and also his lawyer hand delivered his medication and they REFUSED TO GIVE IT TO HIM. Enraging! How do ANY of these people live with themselves?
- Reposted by CharlenerdThe best thing about the Olympics is watching the entire world come together in common purpose. Booing the sh*t out of JD Vance. Thank you.
- Reposted by CharlenerdI suspect there are a lot of House Democrats in their 70s or 80s who think they're going to coast back into a comfortable leadership position by keeping their head down and riding the blue wave, but they're going to have to navigate these kinds of challenges first and most are not ready at all.
- Reposted by CharlenerdThis happens with*everything* now. No matter how grave the crime or one-dimensional the injustice, after four days the hivemind of American punditry decides that the Real Story is how the people upset about it are the real villains.
- Reposted by CharlenerdAn ACCIDENT. Sometimes you get home from the store and you thought you bought whole milk but then you look at it and you actually posted a video of the black ex president depicted as a gorilla
- Reposted by CharlenerdIt was an ACCIDENT you know how you sometimes trip and go woaahhh and post a video of the black ex president depicted as a gorilla
- Reposted by Charlenerdcan't help but think there is probably a corrosive effect of having sex trafficker-elite emails unveiled for months on end as one of the biggest cultural/news stories of the last year— unearthing an inexcusable moral rot in the upper echelons of power—but without any real accountability/justice
- Reposted by CharlenerdClapping my flippers together and honking like a harbor seal when a Super Bowl ad for a condiment or gambling app featuring two celebrities unexpectedly reveals a third celebrity as its punchline. Bouncing a ball around on my snout. My wife has to throw me a herring to get me to calm down.

- Reposted by Charlenerdyou know it's bad when they would rather us think that a rando staffer has unfettered access to the social media accounts of the President of the United States, where we also now know that world leaders direct message him
- Reposted by CharlenerdI am so tired of consultants saying democrats must be pro death penalty no cash bail or lose moderate republicans
- Reposted by CharlenerdThis is really crucial in understanding today's right wing: it is an arena in which you can get attention, and become famous, without any skill or insight or knowledge. All you have to do is say outrageous shit. So it's become a collection bin for all these failed, flailing narcissists.
- Reposted by CharlenerdI don’t know if this counts as a watershed moment or whatever but it is significant that even the NYT has to drop the pretense and call it what it is. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/06/u...
