Wise man…

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

Have a great weekend. It could be our last.

When even the New York Post has to publish this, you know you fucked up.

🔥 Finally!! Starmer ready to offer Youth Mobility Scheme. 🙌🙌🙌

I apparently I activated all of Twitter today by using a measure Elongelicals value but I don’t—IQ—to assess Elon Musk. I assessed his IQ score, based on years of research, as average to above-average (100 to 110) and they went... crazy. Absolutely bonkers. Every Musk stooge and stan weighed in.

I am so sick of this shit. It’s a Sieg Heil. It’s a Nazi salute. Anyone who sees it knows. It’s ridiculous that legal departments presumably won’t let media call it what it is. Bannon made “a provocative gesture that resembled the salute Elon Musk gave at a post-inauguration rally”? Fuck off.

“Dr Mike Galsworthy, chairman of the European Movement UK, told The Independent: “This is welcome news. We need to start pulling this country out of the no-growth quagmire of Brexit and start giving people hope for a better, brighter future.””

Arresting someone for calling you fascist seems an excellent approach to proving their point.

If you want to know why progressive values are under attack look to the spending of the billionaires and our weak or malignant press. Those they are using their wealth to target, those who never had power and now have even less, are not the people to blame.

Absolutely @eddavey.libdems.org.uk

Elon musing about prosecuting schiff isn’t mere politics, it’s a lot more than that. I wish Schiff would explain a little bit more of what a norms crusher this is.

All I can say at this stage is… FINALLY! 💥

If you’re wondering why I declined to talk to the NYTimes, then you haven’t been following my account for very long. They bear a direct responsibility for the current situation we find ourselves in, and I responded by laying out my position and that I would only talk to @jamellebouie.net

US National Security Adviser says Ukraine President "need to tone it down and take a hard look and sign that deal," What he means is - hand some of your country to Russia, 50% of your mineral wealth to Trump, starve your people. Gangster politics is no basis for lasting peace.

This is like opposing a joint resolution declaring that the Sun sets in the West America doesn’t just look like an idiot here, we look like goddamn Flat Earthers

EXCLUSIVE: A federal worker at the EPA sent an incredible email to Administrator Lee Zeldin. He's refused to stay silent, and has asked me to share the email - and his name - with the public. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/exclusive-...

As Trump makes concessions to Russia, he is showing weakness on a level unprecedented in modern US history. His position is so weak that it is unlikely to convince anyone. Trump is a sheep in wolf’s clothing. The wolves can tell the difference "The Weak Strongman" snyder.substack.com/p/the-weak-s...

There are moments in these deportation fights when I can just FEEL how pissed off they are that I’m Puerto Rican 😂 they want to threaten me with it so bad 😂

🗣️ @aoc.bsky.social out fighting for the people & federal workers: “Every day our job is to wake up and say ‘what can I do today?’ — There is no act too small. Every action matters.” 🇺🇸

I was just an Education Department guy under Reagan and the most junior WH senior staffer under G.H.W. Bush, so what do I know? But if I were an ex-president, and the current president were executing the most disastrous turn in American foreign policy in 80 years, I think I might say something?

I welcome the agreement on our 16th package of sanctions. The EU is clamping down even harder on circumvention by targeting more vessels in Putin’s shadow fleet and imposing new import and export bans. We are committed to keep up the pressure on the Kremlin.

Helpful & important, as referenced on air today. www.fpri.org/article/2024...

Ok that made me laugh

NEW: Last week’s newsletter had ‘IT’S A COUP’ in big red letters on front page of NYT. Well, guess what? It still is. We have to stop framing what’s happening as in any way normal. It’s a coup & a collapse in the international order & none of this is ‘normal’ broligarchy.substack.com/p/us-coup-ga...

How on earth do you satirise this unadulterated mince?
