"I have resisted going as far as you have done in your criticism of the Israeli government. I resist no more... we are in agreement."

Piers Morgan to me on his show today. I cited retired Israeli general Yair Golan saying Israel is now killing babies as a hobby.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social Could you please bring in an expert to discuss tariffs? The callers today were mostly way off. For one thing, when imported products increase by 20% due to tariffs, domestic producers will also raise their prices to just a little below. Consumers pay more, inflation goes up.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social listening on catch-up from Florida. Pam Bondi (Bondee btw) was the FL AG who declined to investigate complaints Trump University exploited students. She later received political donations from him. ps Could be worse- he originally wanted another Floridian, Matt Gaetz for AG.

Republicans- is this really how you want your fellow Americans to be treated?
JUST IN: Another medical horror story in an affidavit from a USAID employee stationed overseas. Says his pregnant wife was not medevac-ed for emergency health care because of directives from DC. Took intervention of a U.S. senator to reverse — but was too late. s3.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

Thousands of protesters opposing President Trump’s agenda took to the streets on Monday across the U.S., derisively calling him a “king” on Presidents’ Day for his efforts to terminate thousands of federal workers and to fire prosecutors and independent watchdogs. nyti.ms/3CQA2LX

THREAD: In 2023, I received an envelope with no return address. Inside was a flash drive containing tens of 1000s of secret files.

It came from a vigilante with a tumultuous past, who'd conducted a years-long undercover operation. He didn’t tell the FBI or his family. He only told me.
