Dems understand that they need to appeal to low-information, low-partisanship Trump voters and think the way to do that is to go like "look I admire Elon Musk and his noble goals as much as anyone but the Administrative Procedures Act says" when the actual move is "no eggs at the grocery store"

Great piece by @adamserwer.bsky.social. Reminder that this isn’t the first time the federal workforce has been resegregated: Woodrow Wilson’s 1913 order to impose Jim Crow rolled back almost half a century of progress that saw Black people working at every level of the federal government.

An excellent deep dive intp the dats behind FIRE's "campus free speech" rankings. You won't be surprised to learn they are bullshit, riddled with errors and willful misrepresentions. This is not a serious organization and we would stop treating it as such. www.chronicle.com/article/the-...

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

Americans HATED Jan. 6. That the political opposition wasn't able to harness that and turn it into a lasting defeat of Trumpism will be one of the defining stories of the 2020s, if not the century.

I appreciate everyone’s messages of support, I’m trying to get through all my mentions but as you can imagine, it’s been a bit of a busy day :) Remember - peaceful civil disobedience, and no kings, no tyrants. Not ever.

Bill Kristol is substantially flanking most Democrats to the left, including on trans rights. That's how pathetic our party is

Whether it's Hillary Clinton sharing risotto tips on a private email server or Elon Musk giving full access to all government information to a nineteen-year old named Big Balls with ties to a child pornography collective known for its extortion techniques, both sides have played loose with security.

To understand the faction leading America, recognize they think the worst, most terrifying things to happen in recent years are: 1) George Floyd protests 2) Public health treating COVID as real 3) HR saying "we've received complaints about your, um, 'jokes'" 4) Press 1 for English 5) Pronouns in bio

Incredible news. After immense pressure and threats of protest, Children's Wisconsin has reinstated treatment for at least one trans teen under its care. Several hospitals across the country determined their fear of Trump's illegal EO was more important than their trans patients.
