josh’s comments here get at the truth of the trump cuts: democrats can’t just turn funding streams back on when in power. the infrastructure has been badly damaged—we’ll need a wholesale reimagining and reinvestment in the reconstruction of public media (as well as all our other public institutions)

I know I say it a lot, but On the Media continues to be one of the most essential pieces of media I consume each week, especially when it comes to understanding the motivations of this regime. Everyone should listen to this one.

excellent segment that should alarm every normal reasonable military personnel & veterans, and their families.

Thank you so much @esqueer.net 🙏🙏

I've gotten so many people reaching out to me about this piece. It's been incredible to get such positive feedback but also to know public media still breaks through the noise.

Holy hell. Whiskey Pete is even more batshit insane than the "commander."

@onthemedia.bsky.social is hitting it out of the park with their explainers on just how dangerous the Christian nationalism being played out by SecDef Hegseth and the Trump admin is (and, in the second part, Thiel’s apocalypse fixation).

Pete Hegseth belongs to an ultra right-wing Christian denomination that says women shouldn’t vote and the US should be an explicitly Protestant nation. His preachers have been going to the Pentagon to lead monthly prayer meetings. lnk.to/onthemedia/b...

This week, Idaho governor Brad Little signed a bill criminalizing trans people using public bathrooms that align with their gender identity - part of a cascade of legal attacks on trans people. @esqueer.net on how the "dual state" framework applies to this moment: lnk.to/onthemedia/b...

A really good episode (they all are!) and an upsetting one to hear during Holy Week. This commitment to spitting in the face of Christ is a scandal I can't even comprehend.

WaPo Editorial: US cut aid to Africa. The continent proved resilient.

The @washingtonpost.com describes the deaths of an estimated 750,000 people to date as "messy"

The most recent episode of @onthemedia.bsky.social has an excellent discussion of the distinctive, illiberal theologies that inform the worldviews of MAGA maniacs like Hegseth and Thiel. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/o...

Come for the scriptural analysis, stick around for a discussion of the differences between pre- and post-millennial apocalypticism. Another great episode of OTM.

The weekly program @onthemedia.bsky.social is my hands down favorite. Recommend this week's episode for @esqueer.net's interview with @brookegladstone.bsky.social.

meanwhile today's @onthemedia.bsky.social episode is about Pete Hegseth's vile and blasphemous heresies from the pit of hell

You do subscribe to On the Media, don't you? If not, fix that right away! If you do, this week's episode is great!
