There is an evil genius to categorizing the enemy as the “undeserving”, because it twigs on our emotional response to unfairness and requires no proof that these enemies actually exist, allowing one to punish ANYONE for their adjacency to the imaginary.

Dear Mr. Musk, What we found out is that each one of us is 1. a brain 2. and an athlete 3. and a basket case 4. a princess 5. and a criminal. Does that answer your question?

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

The long way of saying “The purpose of democracy is to protect the rest of us from deranged rich people, be they kings or oligarchs. Everything else is wainscoting.” But it’s good to see people getting on the train.

Anyone else been hearing a lot about "We just need better messaging!" "We just need a left Joe Rogan!" lately? About that. There's one reason the right has more social media than the left, with bigger audiences. Right-wingers pay their creators. End of list.

I know a federal employee who says he works from home in the morning but just watches TV and calls into political shows to rant psychotically about windmills and toilets. His salary is $400K. We're paying some people a lot to do nothing. Where can I report him for theft of government services?

After that plane literally flipped upside down after smashing into the runway and 100% of people survived, I hope every person who ever said “what’s even the point of seatbelts on a plane” feels like a real doof.

Public comment is now open for passport gender marker changes. You can go here to go to each of the three proposed passport rules, and submit comment. My suggestion: be unique, argue for trans-inclusive policies, against the constitutionality of the changes, etc. www.reddit.com/r/Passports/...

Okay, now that we're thinking about Substack and both its cultural influence and its business model, can I walk you all through the economics? Because they make no sense, and we can use that to predict how things are going to go... (Caution:🧵)

Coincidentally read this part of Terry Pratchett's "Guards! Guards!" over lunch. (My first Pratchett book.) Here, the soon-to-be-former heads of the city are realizing there's a new monster in charge, each wishing one of the others would stand in protest. I heard Pratchett was incisive, but dang. 👀

813 US billionaires held a record $6.72 trillion in wealth at the end of 2024. The bottom 50% of Americans held roughly $3.9 trillion in wealth. When 813 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

During Biden’s 2020 campaign and after, the pressure was nonstop—“Forgive student loans, or we won’t vote for you!” People ignored that executive orders aren’t the best solution since the next administration can just undo them. We’re seeing that play out now. 🧵

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)
