Heather Cox Richardson writes today about how Trump and MAGA are working feverishly to turn Comey's snapshot of some rocks on the beach into a sinister plot — working feverishly to distract us from Trump's glarding failure in so many ways. She says,
"In his newsletter today, retired entrepreneur Bill Southworth tallied the times Trump has grabbed headlines to distract people from larger stories…"

MAGA world is performing over-the-top outrage over a photo former Federal Bureau of Investigation director James Comey posted on Instagram, where he has been teasing a new novel.Heather Cox Richardson (Letters from an American)
Well, they are obsessed by conspiratorial narratives. But on the merits, through my life "86" didn't mean anything but "jettison."
"86 the mayo in that sandwich."
I can't recall a single instance off hand where it had anything to do with violence. Has it mutated with the 20-somethings? Dunno. But Comey is not a 20-something.
This is just another example of abrogating the 1st amendment and making Americans afraid.
JonChevreau reshared this.
"Southworth calls this 'narrative warfare,' and while it is true that Republican leaders have seeded a particular false narrative for decades now, this technique is also known as 'political technology' or 'virtual politics.' This system, pioneered in Russia under Russian president Vladimir Putin, is designed to get people to vote an authoritarian into office by creating a fake world of outrage."

#DOGE has turned its attention to small, #independent entities
NPR has identified close to 40 entities — inside, adjacent to & OUTSIDE of the #government — where DOGE & the #Trump admin have turned their attention in recent weeks.
It's the latest example of how DOGE is attempting to expand its reach beyond high-profile Cabinet agencies, & in some cases far beyond the #ExecutiveBranch & the #FederalGovernment entirely.

"and interviews with employees who were granted anonymity because they are not authorized to speak publicly and fear retaliation from the Trump administration."
I don't get it, how else will they retaliate but cutting their jobs, which they are slated to do anyway.
All they need to do is dox them. The gaggle of thugs will take it from there.
They have families to consider.

Physically, I’m nearly his age, and I remember Man-Tan coming out when I was a teenager.
Old 60s civil-rights song:
“Well, there’s just one thing, / I don’t understan’: / Why the Southern Whites / Use Man-Tan.”
But the thing about Man-Tan is that’s not traditional make-up. It’s a chemical lotion that turns skin dark. And if you abuse it, it turns skin orange. It appears that, after about 60 years, the Syphilitic Orangutan hasn’t yet worked that out.
The Disney-ABC-Time-Warner-Microsoft machine -- exists only because we turn it on. If enough of us turn it off, it is gone. Think of it: It is in your power to plunge Bill Gates into poverty, to send Peter Jennings off to 'Good Morning, Saskatchewan,' to rid the world of Disney-licensed products, to see Martha Stewart and Jerry Springer reduced to talking only to each other. Disconnect now!

in reply to levent sönmez • • •The image features a green glass bottle repurposed as a planter, resting on a decorative metal stand with intricate scrollwork. The bottle is positioned horizontally, with its neck facing the right side of the image. It is placed on a wooden table with a black metal frame, set against a backdrop of a cloudy sky and a body of water, possibly a lake or sea, with distant mountains visible on the horizon. The table is on a gravel surface, and there are power lines running across the sky. A black pot with a plant is also visible, adding to the rustic aesthetic of the scene.

The image features a large cactus planted in a repurposed black metal washing machine drum, which is positioned on a rocky shoreline. The cactus has multiple arms extending upwards, with a prominent central stem and several side branches. The drum is supported by three legs and has a perforated surface, adding texture to the scene. The background shows a body of water with gentle waves, and a cloudy sky with patches of blue. In the distance, a mountain range is visible, adding depth to the landscape. The overall composition highlights the contrast between the natural cactus and the industrial drum, set against a serene natural backdrop.

The image depicts a scene by a body of water, likely a lake or sea, with a cloudy sky overhead. In the foreground, there is a repurposed metal drum, possibly an old washing machine drum, standing on four black metal legs. The drum is filled with driftwood, suggesting it is used as a fire pit or decorative element. The ground is covered with small, varied-colored pebbles, and the background features a calm water surface with a boat visible in the distance. The horizon shows distant hills or mountains, adding depth to the scene. The overall color palette includes grays, blues, and earthy tones, contributing to a serene and somewhat industrial aesthetic.

The image depicts an outdoor setting by a body of water, likely a lake or sea, with a pebbled shore. In the foreground, there are two wooden bar stools with cushioned seats and a central black table. The stools have a traditional design with turned legs and spindles on the backrests, and the seats are cushioned with a plaid-patterned fabric. The table is square with a dark surface and a central pedestal leg. The background features a cloudy sky with patches of blue, and the water is calm with gentle ripples. The horizon shows distant mountains, adding depth to the scene. The overall atmosphere is serene and inviting, with the furniture positioned to face the water, suggesting a place for relaxation and contemplation.
