Some personal news: I’ve signed with Hyponymous Literary to represent me as I seek to publish my first book. Honored to be working with lenny duncan as my agent and in the company of these amazing writers: www.hyponymous.com/hyponymous-a...
I saw the new “Nuremberg” movie last night, and it gave me a little hope. We did it before, we can do it again. I will not support any political candidate who is not fully committed to holding this current administration accountable for its crimes. Every last single one of them.

In September, federal agents swarmed a Hyundai manufacturing site, detaining more than 500 workers, including more than 300 from South Korea.

Now, nearly 200 detainees are preparing to sue ICE, alleging human rights violations and unlawful arrest.
These South Korean workers came to the US to build an EV battery plant. They left in shackles. They still want to know why
ICE agents raided, arrested workers at a Georgia battery factory in September.

I always like it when my friends get to write books. Steve will have a lot of fascinating things to say, regardless of what it's about.

This should be a WAY bigger story:
Jan6ers react to getting pardons NOT signed by Trump (not even w/ #autopen): “You know, Trump brings up a lot of ‘Well, Biden autopenned his pardons.’ Well, you didn’t even autopen my pardon, bro. … So what are you talking about, Trump?”

He’s saying taxpayers will step in and backstop their companies when the AI bubble bursts — as we have done so many times before.

Privatized upside, socialized downside. The oligarchs play us for suckers.

RIP Dick Cheney

Everybody go watch “Vice” in honor today and realize what a horrible person he was and how responsible he was for giving us the authoritarian mess we have now with Trump/MAGA.

If you’re in the #NationalGuard, no, you’re not anymore. Because you’re going to resign—immediately. Because this is bullsh*t, and you know it. We don’t serve fascist dictators here in the United States of America. Contentiously object today. Don’t do this sh*t.

Trump’s government is now using #AI to spy on all of us on #socialmedia. That’s meant to intimidate us and chill #freespeech. F*** that sh*t.

Big Pharma jacked up prices on 575 drugs in the first two fucking days of 2025 — then spent $227 million lobbying the government to protect their profits. While Americans skip doses and go broke, they’re buying silence in Washington.

The face you make when the idiot you’re working with slips up & tells the world that you’ve been masterminding the plan to build luxury hotels on the #GazaStrip since BEFORE the #October7 Hamas terror attack (which it seems clear now Israel ALLOWED to happen to give them the pretense for #genocide).

Because even liberal politicians & press are so used to treating Trump as the Great White Exception, they’re missing the scale of the crisis here. If Congress doesn’t impeach and remove Trump for straight-up plundering the Treasury, it will break the tax system. Millions will not file, will not pay.
Finally: If Trump is hinting or outright demanding that DOJ give him $230 million in claims, how can any official who might be needing a pardon later say no to him? Reinforces the picture of all this as a kind of criminal syndicate. Raskin is strong on this here:
