I was struck by the spilled beans about Ukraine and ideas to end the war - particularly, how they bore some resemblance to ideas to prevent the war in the first place, which reminded me of the sad truth of how often wars end with agreements on terms that were available before they started.
I wrote a fair amount about this in the weeks preceding the invasion and flesh some of that out more at my Substack, so go there if you want.
I'd be sad if you pulled your punches for broader appeal. I'm here for hard truths, different perspectives. It would be weird to agree with a commentator on everything. No preference on emails. I almost never check.
I get that Arab Americans and Muslims wanted to show they are against our countries' policies in the middle east while tens of thousands of Gazans are dying. But do they really think that Trump (Netenyahu's best friend) will be better, because most likely he will be worse. How come they didn't want to show him how they feel?
I’m quite new here-but I laughed out loud several times while at the same time shaking my head in disbelief. These are some interesting and entertaining fresh takes that are welcome as I’m weening myself off TV.
So it looks like the Tweetie-pie gang is going to "fix" immigration the same way they fixed, for example, climate change: They're going to just stop talking about it.
As a related PS, Homan says he never said anything about the military rounding up people to be deported. Okay, Mr. Border Czar, you never said it. Which still leaves the question, are you going to do it?
Thanks personally the intensity of NewsFuckery is perfect for me Jonathan.
I hate to say it but Mr. Homan will be the first casualty of the Trump administration. I think MAGA wants to have a "witch-burning" spectacle of cruelty with mass deportation. Obama deported 3.2 million as the "deporter-in-chief" and you know how movtivated the "Trumpeter" feels about outdoing Obama. I am afraid that once the for-profit-mass-industrial-deportation-machine kicks in 6-9 million is more than doable. Note the share prices of Core-civic and the GEO group in the last week. It's going to be a horror show. So much more corporate profit is to be had by deporting all those pudgy children and their families than going after hard to find criminals. After all who wants to have their employees stabbed or shot and pay for all that expensive medical care.
The fucking news is my preferred method of consuming the fucking news. You keep me informed without making me shiver, quiver or cower in fear, you make me feel like the fight is on and we are ready. Thanks!
Once every 4 years, the great American Spineless Worms (republicanas kisstrumpsassis) crawl out of the slime pits to search for an ass to crawl into. They’ve been fortunate enough to find a giant orange ass to nose around in and breed.
You’re correct. I’m so fed up with politicians who call themselves the honorable this and that when 95% of them have the honor and integrity of a televangelist stealing grandma’s social security check. The way they grovel in front of a man who isn’t fit to run for, much less, be in any position of authority makes me sick. And I was once a republican myself! Sorry for the rant.
Look, I began cutting off all mainstream news well before the election and since then I've dumped all my Substack subscribes into a 'folder-to-be-read-whenever-I-fucking-feel-like-it' with one exception: TFN. For some reason yours is the only one now that I can stomach in the morning so whatever you want to do with your domain, I'll accept it as it presents itself. Have a nice week.

that’s because he knows Trump will soon be president. I honestly thought Harris was our only tiny hope.
Bibi just got a green light to slaughter more Palestinians.
Ideas != Visions HarlequinMan! Keep up the spewing *please*

When someone says "I never said...", it's highly likely that's what they thought but were careful not to voice.
I have no mouth and must scream.
We have a winner!
Harlan Ellison had dangerous visions, not ideas.
I came thisclose to making it on the nose but figured some Newsfucker would enjoy calling me on it. Did you know a final volume came out recently?
I’m not a constituent, but I actually called Murphy’s office to thank him.
No shit! Did they say anything?

Thanks, Henri. We will see.
I'm a freeloader (not by choice but circumstance) and I'll take all the content or sections or whatever you throw at me. Thanks
Thank you. But no one calls Newsfuckers freeloaders while I’m around, Sir! From each, to each… etc!
Where is the fucking Linky Link?
Click on linky-link!
I did that first😂

I'm so thrilled to see Senator Chris Murphy is backing up Senator Sanders. I love them both!!!

Wow, that was a lot!
Thanks. I was going to write more but didn’t have time. Appreciate your writings.
I meant "a lot" in terms of intensity, FWIW! But thank you either way.
