Refuses to be cowed by the greed and idiocy of the right. Likes to see the arrogant brought low. Humanist. Indignant reply-guy.
Occasional jokes.
Alls I can say is that I’m way the eff smarter than David Brooks.

I read Peter Baker’s “News Analysis” today about Trump’s cult of personality.
Only issue…. The article was missing both “news” and “analysis”.
Why the NYT thinks its subscribers want mealy-mouthed, tepid blah blah, I’ll never understand.

Stopped by an “Abolish ICE” bake-sale today…
It’s like the most American thing ever.
And also, ICE and Trump should just surrender now; once the people are holding bake-sales against you, it’s all over.

Do all the employees of the DOJ feel okay with being part of Pam Bondi’s “Mean Girls” clique?
There is nothing about pursuing justice that she is focused on.
She just wants to be mean to people who don’t suck up to Trump.
Super pathetic…

1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken.
Hundreds of kids are still detained.
We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵

Trump's efforts to turn the US into Russia or Hungary are looking more and more ridiculous, imho.
Fat, tired, demented, old, distracted, racist dimwit who can't face even the smallest bit of pressure.
Has to hide from the boos, blame the intern, dodge and weave.
He's weak and pathetic.

He thinks stuff like this makes him look tough, but it really just exposes him as a petty bitch who can't operate in a free country.

Look, how many times has each and any of us accidentally retweeted a racist video…?

I would really like someone who’s in a position such that they could pull this off to do so:
Ask Trump, “You seem to have powers that are beyond that of mere mortals. Do you think that perhaps you are actually some kind of god or demigod? Or that you are the ‘chosen one’, anointed by God himself.”

A question I don’t see asked much:
Why are DHS, ICE, CBP so averse to having their activities observed and filmed?
If they are just executing the laws and doing good works for our society, why do they need to keep it all secret?
Or maybe…
Anyway seems like they should be asked more directly.

NYT really needs to put a limit on how many articles they publish with headlines that begin “Trump says…”
That’s not news; that’s just being distribution for his bullshit.

Compare/contrast with Melania's life of pampered opulence...

Rep. Morrison on conditions at Whipple: "She said, 'they are treating us like animals in here. The women that are in this cell with me, we slept on a cold concrete floor last night. We were begging for a blanket, & guards were cruel'... we have to resolve that every single person deserves dignity"

Did they show the Melania movie at the Kennedy Center?
I guess it stinks so bad that the theater needs to close for two years to get the stench out.

This could really eat into their camgirl performance exports.
It’s like 20% of their economy.

Iran and Russia have engineered a new system under which the secret police are empowered to exercise total control over the internet and social media in all forms. You can expect that Trump will be copying these practices to the letter in short order.
