That’s more like it.

Worth listening to this interview with @karaswisher.bsky.social and @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social ... Kara really has the smartest and what seems to me to be the most accurate take on Elon Musk that there is, because she has covered these tech bros for years. www.youtube.com/watch?v=2xXL...

Thanks to #JackHopkins for the candid conversation about Kash Patel, the FBI, and much more: youtu.be/q8XQZPR_vok

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

Of course they were women

In 2023, online sleuths who aided the FBI in cases against hundreds of Jan. 6 rioters identified Pete Marocco and his now-wife as being among the rioters who stormed the Capitol in 2021.

Someone should tell the NYT that they can save space by replacing “aggressive incursion” with “coup.”

The DEI caused the plane crash narrative is a distraction. The tariffs are a distraction. Whatever insane nonsense Trump spews that the media will chase like cats chasing a laser light is a distraction. The only story that counts right now is the wholesale hijacking of control of the US government.

The fact that major voices in the cryptocurrency industry are now arguing that tariffs are good is one more proof, if more were needed, that crypto is a scam aimed at gullible and foolish people.

If it were legal to fire you, they wouldn't put so much effort into getting you to resign voluntarily.

This is what the government did with 120K+ Japanese Americans in 1942. I know. I was there in those camps.

I think it already is. But seriously. Don’t call them names. We want the door open for them when they realize the mistake they made. We are for a better America. Not a vindictive America

As well as misspelling the name of Colombia, Donald Trump is going to push our allies into the loving embrace of China. But don’t say we didn’t tell ya. We did

“A Hitler salute is a Hitler salute is a Hitler salute,” the prominent German weekly Die Zeit wrote in an editorial. Also, in related news, a clownish dick is a clownish dick. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/24/w...

Here are some of the many violent Jan. 6 criminals Trump is releasing back into America’s streets.

Trump’s executive order seeking to end birthright citizenship is perhaps his most disturbing — representing a direct challenge to the plain language of the U.S. Constitution. It may also be one of the most straightforward Trump actions to reverse.

Hitler-loving white nationalist Nick Fuentes on Elon Musk's salute: "That was a straight up like 'Sieg Heil',' like loving Hitler energy."

Not everyone can fight Trumpism and Trumpists directly. But remember this: kindness, decency, and fidelity to American values are defiance in the face of Trumpism. So be kind, decent, and faithful, particularly to the many kinds of people despised and attacked by Trumpists. That’s revolutionary./1

“But of course that’s part of the point of all the boasting and big talk. Don’t fall for it. Don’t be cowed. Don’t be demoralized. Trump and Trumpism aren’t as strong as they look. In fact, it could well be all downhill from noon today for Trump and Trumpism.” @billkristolbulwark.bsky.social
