As Passover begins, I am reposting my open letter to Elon Musk. I wrote it in response to his attacks on me and his suggestion that I suffer from “generational trauma.” It has been the most viral piece I have ever written and I continue to be moved by the positive feedback. Thanks and Happy Pesach!

We have the most anti-free speech government in modern American history. (And yet, in true Orwellian fashion, they claim to be champions of free speech.)

AOC: And his whole presidency began with launching tools for bribery, meme coins to fleece working people and move around money in the dark, extortion settlements from media companies and law firms who gladly pay them

Forgive the rant, but what the hell is this Administration doing? Not gonna be easy to undo the damage, folks. But I’ve got some ideas on where to start.

Democracy isn’t dying in darkness it’s being dismantled at the hands of the Supreme Court of North Carolina. @allisonjriggs.bsky.social won this election fair and square back in November. Her opponent is a petulant Confederate cosplayer who can’t handle losing. Concede Jefferson Griffin.

This how health insurers screw everyone for profit. Republicans will cut off sick people before they even lift a finger to investigate the real fraud in our healthcare system.

Bravo to Susman Godfrey. My first reaction to hearing they had been targeted was to tell people that it wasn’t in that firm’s DNA to settle. Their late founder Steve Susman would be proud of his firm—as should our profession and all freedom-loving Americans.

BREAKING: the heroes at Susman Godfrey sue the Trump administration over the illegal retaliation against them They have more integrity in their pinky finger than these other firms that have been capitulating have in their entire partnerships And kudos to the team at Munger for representing them

Everyone has their own priorities and no one can possibly attend to or care about every fire this regime sets. But ppl being disappeared without due process and sent to a foreign prison should fully panic everyone body and soul and I need more folks with bigger voices to start screaming about it

Not for nothing, but how, exactly, is it legal to send people for punishment in a foreign prison (esp with no due process)? Were the funds being used for it appropriated for this purpose? I feel this has just become a thing no one questions

Donald Trump's incoherent babbling on tariffs and groceries and his generally bad president-ing have sunk his approval ratings. A strong majority now says they can't understand why anyone would support him. LOL! My column: www.usatoday.com/story/opinio...

If you read this report, you understand how the scam is going to work: El Salvador will refuse to return people the Trump administration is supposed to be "facilitating" the return of by claiming that they have _their own national interest_ in keeping them. It's a scam...and it's Human Trafficking.

This follows the game plan of so many totalitarian regimes. Anything that educates, enlightens, enhances spirit and mind becomes the enemy. All the better to control and oppress.

It always boggles my mind that I, a journalist, am expressly forbidden from trading stocks, but members of Congress, with vastly greater knowledge of market-moving news, are allowed to profit by front-running markets, and so may profit by in essence stealing from the public they represent.
