In their minds, social democracy is just a temporary transition state to democratic socialism, which is a temporary phase in transitioning to socialism, which is in turn a temporary phase to transition to communism. So for conversational convenience, it's simpler just to call them all communists. 🙃

"Her message is simple: Life has gotten too hard for hard-working people in Texas. Schools are underfunded — hundreds have gone to four days a week — and new artificial intelligence initiatives are no substitute for a good teacher in the classroom."

The targeting of one data center is proving a really useful natural experiment showing which sites and ideologies are an echo chamber of Russian propaganda

You can kill as many people as you want, but you target a beautiful precious data center? The one that hosted all 40,000 Sexy Ladies For Ken Paxton accounts?

Kirschner: When the ruling-class criminals commit crimes, you know what we do? We negotiate non-prosecution agreements with them. That’s the exact opposite of accountability.

A devastating loss to international diplomacy. Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner have put their planned trip to Moscow on hold until they determine whether Ukraine and European countries are willing to support a new unified peace proposal for Putin, Axios reports.

🚨 Seven US senators from both parties say Trump broke the law by greenlighting Russian diesel imports, pointing to a 2022 ban meant to stop American $$ from bankrolling Russia's war & accusing regime of skipping Congress entirely. Russian blood diesel ship ETA in 3 hours at Wilmington, NC! 🧵

United States Senate Committee on FOREIGN RELATIONS FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE October 11, 2026 CONTACT: James Nycz Ranking Member Shaheen and Six Bipartisan Senators' Statement on Legality of Imports of Russian Diesel Fuel WASHINGTON - Today, U.S. Senators Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH), Ranking Member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Susan Collins (R-ME), Richard Blumenthal (D-CT), Lisa Murkowski (R-AK), Ron Wyden (D-OR), Thom Tillis (R-NC) and John Curtis (R-UT) issued a statement regarding the legality of Russian diesel fuel imports to the United States. "Congress explicitly banned Russian energy imports in 2022 to prevent American dollars from financing Putin's brutal war against Ukraine. Congress was clear: the U.S. should not import oil from Russia until it ends its aggression against Ukraine and ceases threats against our NATO Allies. "President Trump's decision to allow Russian diesel imports to the U.S. runs directly counter to that law. The Administration has also failed to consult with Congress or submit any explanation to justify its decision as required by statute. "The United States should not provide Putin with a financial lifeline while Russia continues to kill Ukrainian civilians. The Administration must immediately reverse course." ### Photo of a large oil tanker on the ocean.

Kirschner: What I fear is that Trump may grow tired of the court brushing him back, and he may just order the bulldozers and the wrecking balls to roll onto the Kennedy Center Plaza and start knocking it down.
