A truly unhinged take. Virtually all of the early American auto pioneers were either immigrants or the children or grandchildren of immigrants.
The Wright Brothers were the grandchildren of immigrants.
And there would have been no Manhattan Project or moon landing without immigrants.

Maybe it’s time for me to pull together an FAQ about pink and blue on my Substack. Post or DM me your questions and I’ll get started. Can we set a deadline of January 4?

Un-fun fact: 72% of Americans supported the Iraq war when the US invaded.
No one admits having supported the Iraq War nowadays, but at the time it was actually pretty popular, and the guy who did it got re-elected the next year!
Even in 2006 when public opinion soured on it enough for Dems to make huge gains, it was way more popular than invading Venezuela would be.

someone was claiming the iraq war was this unpopular. that is simply false. the iraq war was polling from 47-60 percent. that is a big difference from 11 percent! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_...

Seriously, to all the people getting mad that people were covering the existence of the letter, what do you want?
Should we just not talk about any of this? Until when? Do you think this is going to court or something?
Spread it out there as far as it can go. People can decide for themselves.

Mystified by Dems worriedly telling everyone to be careful because the letter is probably fake. There's no proof it's fake. Just take the win! Act like Republicans for once and run with it. Assume it's real. Donald Trump is a pedophile. Make headlines. Do TikTok videos. Shove it down their throats.

Drop Paramount+ which owns CBS
Bari Weiss claims she killed the CBS CECOT story because it lacked Trump’s perspective.
1. That’s a lie. Trump has publicly commented supporting CECOT.
2. Refusing to comment is their choice. They are no victim.
3. Killing a story to protect power is State Run Media.
Drop CBS permanently.

Over the past year or two, Adobe has been littering its software with “AI tools,” new features that were marked with that little AI ✨ emoji thing.
Some seemed genuinely useful for common tasks, like removing backgrounds in Photoshop. But gen AI sucks so no thank you.

A fun fact I know is that we used to do a lot of denim manufacturing in the NYC Garment District up into the 90s, when the industry moved overseas.
Companies sold their equipment to manufacturers in Mexico, Japan, etc. No one makes those machines anymore, so we can’t bring that industry back.

The least accomplished people you’ll meet are the most likely to cling to some sort of pride in their heritage, something they had absolutely nothing to do with.
It’s all they have to give themselves a sense of value and belonging, and they should be made to feel a great deal of shame for it.

I’ve been thinking about what I would do with the ballroom, assuming we can’t just knock it over, and I think a homeless shelter or a school for refugee children would be high on my list.
There's a series of things (like the ballroom, Gulf of America) that we're going to have to *undo* the moment this guy is out of office.
And yet I can already hear future Democrat presidents saying "I'm focused on the people's work, not the knucklehead stuff" and just leave this man's shit up.

I will donate to any Democrat who campaigns on Nuremberg Trials for everyone who worked for ICE during this period.
not enough looking glasses to pass through at this point:
An entire family of Kansas Citians outed themselves as ICE agents and got USA Today to write an exposé because they felt that their work, as a family deporting other families, is wrongly demonized by the media.
They’re the victims, really.

Honestly, Pritzger could be both guys. Newsom will end up being neither.
A lot will happen between now and then, but my guess is that the ‘28 primary will be a contest between 1) someone who’s been doing the work fighting Trump who can rally the pissed off base, and 2) some telegenic white guy with whom swing voters would hopefully want to drink fermented beverages.
