If you’re wondering why I declined to talk to the NYTimes, then you haven’t been following my account for very long. They bear a direct responsibility for the current situation we find ourselves in, and I responded by laying out my position and that I would only talk to @jamellebouie.net

It’s been a long fucking day, I’m tired, and I misspoke. Let me rephrase it in a more correct way. Fuck Hakeem Jeffries and almost every other elected Democratic official for forcing me to be the one to get arrested instead of them doing their goddamn job and being leaders.

I'm an Article I member of Congress, do you think I have the power to just direct federal spending or something?

Few Americans understand the draconian treatment of poets and writers by the US-backed Park & Chun dictatorships. I experienced it first-hand. US reviews of Han Kang's work carefully tiptoe around this evil. "Poet Kim Hye-soon & the true story of Eun-sook the editor in Han Kang’s Human Acts."

It turns out that Thomas Friedman's "coalition of inclusion" only includes the US and Israel. www.reuters.com/world/middle...

Donald Trump shows his laser-focus on the material concerns of ordinary Americans by putting the nation's health care system in the hands of someone who obsesses about sperm counts.

The dark brilliance of the "berniebro" smear was that it, in many ways, described the strange Mark Penn-style populism of Clinton's 2008 run.

Here we see Elon Musk's lickspittle Jason Calacanis 1) shrieking today for the government to slash spending going to others, and 2) shrieking in 2023 for the government to bail out him and his friends at Silicon Valley Bank

Because the USAF was led by the most blood-thirsty general of all time, Curtis LeMay. Japan was mercilessly bombed until the very last day of the war, weeks after its surrender. "Why did US indiscriminately attack civilian targets in Kyushu in WWII's final stage?" mainichi.jp/english/arti...

A professor of law at George Mason University in DC, who lists his location as DC/Jerusalem, is telling us that carpet bombing a land to force people to flee for their lives or face starvation and death is just a case of “unemployment”, not ethnic cleansing. Oh he’s also an “expert” on the issue.

Dems in Congress think everything's normal. It's not. One word describes them all: Failure. They've lost everything, and they're the first to point out out they have no power, that 215 Reps and 47 Senators is as good as zero. So why keep any of them? Their experience in failure and excuses? 🧹🧹🧹

at some point it becomes irresponsible *not* to speculate whether these people are actual spies, rather than just unsupervised kids doing exactly the things that spies would do

Elon Musk called antisemitic white genocide conspiracy theories "actual truth", so you know the only reason he's cancelling Mark Elez for his racist remarks is Elez's opposition to the H1B visa program.

watching these people you get a sense of how incurious a human can be. just no interest at all in the texture of reality

This is what revisionist history looks like, in real time. And this also is why it might appear that archaeologists and historians have to dig deep to discover the existence of powerful women and marginalized groups -- because their legacies are so often erased.

Hey Elon👋🏽 Every single person in this country deserves to know their rights. That's legal. Maybe you should brush up on our laws given the fact you're breaking them to steal American's sensitive data. PS. This video is manipulated, and I wasn't even at the event shown.

As John Podhoretz says Mehdi Hasan is worse than Goebbels, recall that in 2006 Podhoretz explained that America's mistake in Iraq was not having committed genocide. In the same column Podhoretz fretted that Israel was "too nice" and wouldn't be willing to kill 10,000 civilians.
