From @ClaudeMalhuret “Washington est devenu la cour de Néron, un empereur incendiaire, des courtisans soumis et un bouffon sous kétamine chargé de l'épuration de la fonction publique. C'est un drame pour le monde libre, mais c'est d'abord un drame pour les États-Unis.”

Trump has begun construction of an unannounced White House helipad. New photo shows excavators at work on the South Lawn behind a black privacy fence. Damage from the recent UFC event is also visible.

“Washington has become Nero's court, an incendiary emperor, submissive courtiers, and a jester on ketamine tasked with purging the civil service. It is a tragedy for the free world, but first and foremost, a tragedy for the United States.”

Generations of American patriots, from our revolution onward, have fought for the principles Zelenskyy is risking his life to defend. But today, Donald Trump and JD Vance attacked Zelenskyy and pressured him to surrender the freedom of his people to the KGB war criminal who invaded Ukraine. History will remember this day— when an American President and Vice President abandoned all we stand for.
Wow, Vance and Trump are attacking Zelenskyy in the Oval Office

I linked DOGE staffer Marko Elez to a deleted X account that advocated repealing the Civil Rights Act, backed a “eugenic immigration policy,” and wrote, “You could not pay me to marry outside of my ethnicity. He just resigned. wsj.com/tech/doge-staffer-re…

I don’t visit or say much here any more but I make an exception to point out that #enshittification is the well-deserved word of the year
The Macquarie Dictionary Committee's Choice Word of the Year for 2024 is enshittification, with Honourable Mentions going to right to disconnect (RTD) and rawdogging 👏

We’re thrilled to share that our version of “The Sound Of Silence” is featured in @AngelStudiosInc’s ‘Bonhoeffer: Pastor. Spy. Assassin.’ This film is based on the true story of Dietrich Bonhoeffer.

Kamala Harris: A fundamental principle of American democracy is that when we lose an election we accept the results. And anyone who seeks the public trust must honor it. At the same, we owe loyalty not to a president or a party but to the constitution
