The only reason Elon is not behind bars right this second for illegally hacking the treasury is because he's the world's richest robber baron and he spent $277m buying a presidency and a political party. Kleptocracy and oligarchy have never been more naked.

The modern era we live in is often termed the Information Age. It has never been called the Knowledge Age.

Information does not translate directly into knowledge. Information has to be processed before becoming knowledge. It must be accessed, absorbed, comprehended, integrated, and retained.

“The Cheney thing is a clear example of a bad idea that the people who pushed it won’t take responsibility for.”

This could be used to describe almost all of Democratic Party leadership’s decisions.
I agree on the centrist point and frankly there are a lot of people out there who are just saying what they need to say to cover their ass and cash a check. It sucks.

When I was a child, I learned that the Constitution didn’t apply to people like us. I said the Pledge of Allegiance from inside a barbed wire camp, the words “with liberty and justice for all” wholly meaningless.

But I did not give up on America. I’ve spent my life fighting for its ideals.
When we were children, we were taught that no matter how you reached, no matter much wealth and power you accumulated, you were not above the law.

We can no longer teach our children that.

And that's really fucking tragic.

Last year, when I was at MSNBC, I did a 10-minute deep-dive into RFK Jr's anti-vaxxer role in the measles outbreak that killed dozens and dozens of kids in Samoa.

I hope every Senator voting in his confirmation process for HHS knows about this crucial and awful story:
