I remember learning at some point that a key job of the president is knowing to largely stfu, but I don’t think it was ever a part of the calculus of that rule that the president would be a batshit crisis vulture / pedo projecting his worst traits on others.
This is the stupidest timeline.

Trump: “Merry Christmas to all, including the many Sleazebags who loved Epstein, gave him bundles of money, went to his Island, attended his parties, & thought he was the greatest guy on earth, only to ‘drop him like a dog’ when things got too HOT … Enjoy what may be your last Merry Christmas!”

Never in history has there been a man who made his guilt so painfully obvious.

Call me a nerd, but yesterday, a federal judge in Pennsylvania cited my reporting in a ruling against the DOJ in a case challenging Trump-era actions targeting transgender people.
A reminder that this work really does matter.

You’re so close. People are fed TF up that a few people hold the vast majority of wealth. Mark, it’s morally wrong that you have the wealth you have. The people are exhausted from toiling and trying to figure out survival while a few guys who got lucky swim in money like Scrooge McDuck. Just saying.
No shock. This app has turned my mentions, and others, into mostly hate. But there are a few people worth connecting with

The Tech Bros have been throwing around North Star for awhile now. It’s annoying AF. As annoying as using ask* as a noun or using solutioning* in a sentence. The tech world is trash. And the bros chasing Distinguished Engineer* are the worst of the lot. They all think they’re geniuses.
So is there a new dipshit management book out or something? Because the worst people in the world are ALL using the phrase "our North Star" this week. This guy, Bari Weiss, the Firefox CEO.

If you go to a football game as a fan, don’t act like a jackass. I have zero sympathy for this asshole.
The fan who was assaulted by DK Metcalf on Sunday will be holding a press conference on Friday, with his lawyers. A lawsuit now seems inevitable.
