Even if you're not moved by the argument that Twitter is a rightwing cesspool thanks to its redpilled owner, the fact that foreign enemies are expressing concern that they won't be able to use Twitter to manipulate Americans anymore should be enough to warrant the exodus.

The letter that Pete Hegseth's mom wrote to him in 2018 is incontestably damning. Moms often have such selectively rosy sentiments toward their sons that we have cliches about it. But Pete was such a monumental shithead to women that his mom could not stay silent. Incredible stuff.

WHAT HAPPENED TO THE REAGAN REPUBLICANS⁉️ They, including Trump, love to claim his name, but Reagan would be too liberal for today’s GOP. Ronald Reagan opposed tariffs and trade wars, believing they hurt consumers and stifled growth. His vision was rooted in global cooperation, not isolation.

I spoke to Suzy on Thanksgiving and she was trying to be upbeat about the Holidays -- but it's clearly tough for her. I promised her that I would come from L.A. to N.Y. right after Christmas to spend some time helping out at the house so that we can put a care program in place for her mom. Click:

I hope the people who didn't vote Kamala Harris because they didn't believe a woman could be a strong president are witnessing the true strength and ability to govern being demonstrated by Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum and realizing how badly they fucked up.

Remember when "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" tried to teach us about tariffs and no one was paying attention

It's Thanksgiving. Chances are there’s a well-used black plastic spatula, spoon or ladle near the stove. Scientists say it belongs in the trash.

At parent conferences, I told a parent that her son has seemed extra tired in class lately. She told me he’s been having trouble sleeping because he’s worried about his grandparents being deported. This is where we are now.

In Ukraine, Russia has lost 700,000 troops, 70% of its 70 years of stockpiled military gear, and half of the original area of Ukraine they initially occupied. They are also quickly losing whatever is left of their economy. Putin is praying for Trump and Musk to save him.

Poverty is a tool of coercion and control. An impoverished and defeated population keeps the rich at the top. The struggle to exist day to day extinguishes the struggle to resist what’s keeping you there. They’ll feed you enough that you’ll thank them; never enough that you’ll look for more.

1/ 🧵 This is why Black folks are fresh out of fu@ks! We managed to vote for Harris, and we would have voted for Biden. We understood what was at stake. We knew we had to vote for our survival, not the perfect. As always, we took it seriously and spread the word within our families and communities.

❄️ The holidays are here, and knowing that suzyqfit4u.bsky.social has to spend them alone taking care of her mom, without critical help is very tough to imagine, which is why I'm hoping that everyone will help her out with her GoFundMe. Her mom needs much needed care now -- let's all help. Click:

“70% the illegal weapons seized from criminals in Mexico come from your country. We do not produce these weapons, nor do we consume synthetic drugs. Tragically, it is in our country that lives are lost to the violence resulting from meeting the drug demand in yours.” - President Sheinbaum to Trump.

Spending a month on Bluesky has created a whole new model of a fight we need to be having right now. Not liberal vs. conservative or whatever, but respect vs manipulation. I am tired of being manipulated everywhere I go. That’s why I like it here, I feel like I’m in charge for once.

I do a lot of FOIA and I’m used to stonewalling. But Sweden surprised me. After 3 years of telling me no, a high level official at Sweden’s welfare agency Försäkringskassan accidentally left me on cc, writing “Now we must hope that we are done with him.”

A failed president who incited a coup attempt and then was found liable of sexual assault and then was convicted of felonies won the popular vote and electoral college. I still haven’t seen a satisfactory explanation. Probably never will.
