Friday Night Dilemma: The Garden of the Finzi-Continis or Pooty Tang? 🤔

Today, #KashPatel sent a letter to my counsel @markzaidesq.bsky.social threatening to sue & demanding I retract my MSNBC comments on his unfitness to serve as FBI Director. This follows his threats against media & political opponents, showing how he might act if confirmed. I stand by my statements.

Who's the "shithole country" now?

A lot can happen on the first day of a new regime, so plan to be an ally to the marginalized populations already targeted (e.g., LGBTQ, POC, etc.). To whit, the brutalization of Jews in Germany began within days of Hitler’s election.

THIS NEW YORKER PIECE IS STUNNING! Pete Hegseth has no business being in charge of defense when the military is dealing with an ongoing issue of sexual assault against women. This is some next level shit. PETE HEGSETH’S SECRET HISTORY… (1 of 2)

I read this in Russian news (tells you everything you need to know) and checked to see if it was true. Apparently Elon is eyeing destroying Britain after his U.S. operation www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

From the pen of Sarah Kendzior, scholar, author, and independent investigative journalist, everyone. This one is worth reading more than once and people need to see this. Spread it around. sarahkendzior.substack.com/p/servants-o...

This: “The main thing to understand, now that the clock has run out, is that Garland and the DOJ do not want to hold Trump accountable. The preservation of a corrupt institution and its secrets is their agenda, not the survival of our country or the welfare of its people.”

Just so we’re clear, a people’s revolt against autocracy happens in the streets, not at the ballot box. Don’t look to the Democratic Party (or any party for that matter) to topple the regime: It’s on us.

Been thinking a lot lately about that episode of Parks and Rec where Leslie and Tom have to rebrand fluoride in the water as TDazzle in order to get the public to support it.

Hegseth, according to his books, could be counted upon to ignore threats to America from abroad, and to use a purged and politicized military against “enemies within.” Essay: "Pete Hegseth: 13 Steps to National Destruction" snyder.substack.com/p/pete-hegse...

Which Democratic leader(s) will be the first to betray us?

WOW. Denver Mayor Mike Johnston is showing leaders across the country how to stare down a bully.

I never thought I would have to write this for US. It pains me because my parents fled a cruel system for safety in America. But here we are and I have put together a guide of the worst case scenario when Trump takes office open.substack.com/pub/olgalaut...

Restoration of Notre Dame. Uplifting and Hopeful. 🕊️

I can’t tell if I’m evolving or just dead inside.

Patel was involved in Russia’s intelligence operations against Biden during the 2020 election so of course he would be FBI director. A criminal regime in the making www.mediaite.com/tv/just-in-t...

After this election I’m surprised Haiti didn’t invade us to install a democracy.
