George Lucas: It's the Death Star, and does genocide so people know it's bad. It loses when good guys blow it up. Trump 2020 campaign manager: We're the Death Star. Lucas: There's a good side and an evil side. Bad guys' laser swords are an evil-looking red. Trump 2024 White House: I have an idea.

The Russians are manipulating the Gloss family - and everyone else. This isn’t just a private family tragedy. nataliaantonova.substack.com/p/the-short-...

I get some are tired of seeing this pic everywhere. But before you yell, “Stop posting!” I shared this first thing the morning after he put it out. You seeing a post for the first time doesn’t mean it hasn’t already been there for 24+ hours. And please don’t appoint yourself editor of my account.

This ghoul would have to come pry one of these out of 8-year-old Matt’s cold, dead hands.

Im also not a lawyer. But the day I first set foot in CIA headquarters I swore an oath to the constitution, and not-a-lawyer me fully understood what that meant. And I’ve never once considered violating it.

Thank you!

For your weekend listening! Do check this one out—we’re still waiting for the next shoe to drop with India and Pakistan after the Pahalgam attack.

Every so often, a technology meets the moment, and its perfect use case.

Honestly, few things are more heartwarming than dickhead school board members losing elections

This is a perfect assessment of the Trump presidency, as most recently evidenced by Trump's papal cosplay. What diseased mind(s) could possibly consider such conduct as appropriate for a person who claims a leadership role in the affairs of a people? How feckless do you have to be to support this?

By the way, you folks are more than welcome to use “incessant masturbatory bullshit” for any protest signs you may need. I encourage it, actually. And do send me pics, please.

Hi, new followers! Thanks for your kind words on the Pope Doofus 🧵. If you’re interested, please check out my little podcast, @secretsandspies.bsky.social. My co-host Chris and I cover intelligence, counterterrorism, geopolitics, and some spy fiction. New episodes drop Wednesday and Saturday. 1/3

A most eloquent thread.

This whole entire thread. You don't have to be Catholic to feel utterly repulsed by this obscene monstrosity and his cultish little gargoyles.

Exactly! That’s how fucked this dude is. He’s got me—ME—up first thing on a Saturday morning defending the dignity of the Roman Catholic Church.

I will build my Church upon this bankrupt casino. 1/6

"Tell Zuck that's was only business"

Zuck: The average American only has three friends.

This reads like a VH1 documentary

The woke mob wants to take everything from us

A one-man show. Off-Broadway, of course. Black box, just a stool and a spotlight. Rubio plays the entire Executive Branch.

Iannucci wishes he could’ve written this.

Don’t forget the National Archives, too! A true Renaissance man.

Get your popcorn for this confirmation hearing.

Rubio thinks he can do a Kissinger?

One of my all-time favorite quotes is from Anthony Bourdain (RIP, sir). Hearing that Paula Deen got a multimillion-dollar deal as a Diabetes spokesperson for Novo Nordisk, he wrote, “Thinking of getting into the leg-breaking business so I can profitably sell crutches later.”

This, of course, literally broke the second @chriscarrfilm.bsky.social and I sat down to record this weekend’s @secretsandspies.bsky.social and our outline was stacked. We’re letting this one marinate and we’ll dig in next week. Not sure how I feel about Witkoff, though. Happy day in Moscow.
