This remains, and I say this advisedly, one of the best exchanges I have ever seen on social media

Reminder for political journalists: Since searching through Donald Trump's Truth Social posts is so obnoxiously difficult, my brilliant colleague @chrisgherbert.bsky.social built a comprehensive database a few months ago. It's *super* helpful. Now includes share buttons for Bluesky! trumpstruth.org

So a reminder: It’s not ‘liberals’ saying Hegseth abuses women. It’s his mom. It’s not ‘liberals’ comparing Trump to Hitler. It’s his vice-president. It’s not ‘liberals’ calling Musk a liar and a racist. It’s his own child. For the record.

They will halt on January 20, 2025 when Trump takes office, noting the “threat to democracy and freedom of expression posed by the cooperation between the president of the most powerful country in the world, Donald J. Trump, and the richest man in the world, Elon Musk…”

1. When Walmart opens a store, it drives down local wages more than it reduces prices. Some warned of this 20 years ago (me!), but most cities and towns welcomed Walmart anyway. Now, a robust new study shows Walmart’s damage is even worse than feared.

Anger over Smith’s dismissals of the Trump cases is understandable, but it’s the only move he had. By filing preemptively, he keeps the cases alive for 2029. My thoughts in MSNBC Daily. www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

"Conflict of interest" means your interests conflict with mine, and I'm in power, so you lose.

Blocking Nazis, trolls, and fascists doesn’t make it an “echo chamber.” People need to stop gaslighting us into thinking we have to listen to Nazis and debate trolls in order to be informed.

Oh myyy

Some things to practice . . .

Wowwww
