Alright, I’ve listened to the podcasts and read the smart people (citations at the end), let’s boil down the plan: 1) We’re not going to start talking back primarily in DC and NYC. Why? They don’t control outlying areas as firmly. And we need to scare those electeds about their next term. (1/?)

if there's one thing Evangelical Christians know it's that having the state execute a beloved dissident always stops that dissident's message from spreading so yeah seeking the death penalty for Luigi Mangione seems smart

The narcissistic injury of this and WI will provoke a nasty backlash. Don’t fall for it. It means they’re nervous.

When Corey Booker was Mayor of Newark he joined us at NBC for a Hurricane Sandy Benefit. His security guy was a friend of mine and told me they had been up for almost 48 hours delivering supplies to constituents.

Man. There are a lot of cynics out there. If what Booker is doing doesn’t bring YOU joy, there’s no need to shit all over everyone else’s appreciation.

There’s actually one weird trick to fix this problem: DON’T F-ING SEND PEOPLE TO FOREIGN GULAGS.

I'm seeing ppl say Booker's filibuster won't "do anything" & "doesn't require courage". & fr, idk what people want. He's using the only tool Dems have: gumming up the works. To get useful attn he'll have to speak, standing, for HOURS. idk many ppl w the courage to commit to that kind of thing do u?

I’m going to say it, the opposition has started to oh so subtly catch its balance, or at least the flail is slowing. I feel a glimmer of, not hope yet, but less doom. (… she whispers while knocking on wood…)

Real hard to resist just checking out of the news completely, finally accepting that We voted for the iceberg, and trying to enjoy the violin music.

NEW: @motherjones.com reports that one of the men renditioned to El Salvador is Neri Alvarado, who was working in Dallas as a baker. An ICE agent told him they were questioning all men with tattoos. Neri has an AUTISM AWARENESS TATTOO in honor of his 15-year-old brother with autism.

The Signal thing verifies another realization: Even if (!!!) this crew somehow started caring about the greater good, they’re utterly incapable of executing a good plan. So. That will make bird flu / natural disasters / etc. even more gestures in the air. We’re all we’ve got, folks.

This email could've been a Signal group chat.

I think about this a lot, too. One thing I’ve heard is effective is for someone of the in-group to publicly denounce the cult, giving others permission to leave and save face. Not sure who that would be, but it could be a nice surprise when / if it happens.

y’all know i love @signal.org and you should install it. but maybe you should handle top secret instrument information not on (probably) personal devices or on Signal, especially if you’re going to include journalists.

Lemme also just shout out ol buddy from Atlantic for not selling the Signal Group Chat for a book deal and waiting two years to reveal what was in it

From the same party that had Rudy Giuliani butt dialing reporters. Just… rakes glued to their clown shoes. And yet we’re still out of power. 🤡

Hard to wrap one’s head around just how chemically altered most of this administration is at any given time. Incredible.
