Just want to reiterate, this isn't a book that's going to be available in bookstores, on amazon. If you want a copy, now's the moment to act! Well, now through October 30.

Preach!
McGovern: "For those Republicans who think it's okay to give Jeff Bezos a tax cut and at the same time cut food benefits for struggling families, let me say clearly: We don't share the same values... I believe there's a special place in hell for people who take food away from veterans, seniors..."

But of course, and loudly.
And I bet he calls himself a Christian.

could someone check with John Roberts whether accepting a $400 million plane for your personal use is a core executive power that congress may not constitutionally regulate or merely an action for which the president is presumptively immune from any accountability?

ETTD hits Pax Americana’s intelligence services. No one will share deeply with us for a generation.
With fading vision and insight we can console ourselves, as we see our reflection dim in our friends eyes, that we had a nice run.

DOGE recommended firing workers at:
-FDA, which oversees Neuralink
-FAA, which oversees SpaceX
-USAID, which probed Starlink
-CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X.
"Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

This. All of it, especially the network effect.
The world all of us Americans have lived in is one where—despite our griping & not awesome moments & political narratives—the United States has been an engine of innovation, prosperity, security, human progress

Letters of Margue and Reprisal will be issued by Speaker Johnson to Eric Prince for him to assemble an invasion syndicate chiefly comprised of Amentum, fragments of Wagner PMC, a reified Goldcorp PMC, and the Sinaloa cartel.
How does Trump think he would “take” the Panama Canal and Greenland?

Look bringing back polio sounds bad. But it’s a small price to pay to get rid of pronouns in email signatures and black women in star wars.

End stage capitalism flairs into necrotic despotism.
Because there's money to be made by the hyenas selling off the pieces of what better people built. And we just elected one of the carrion eaters as President.

Ben’s correct. It takes so much psychic energy to wade through the flotsam and absolute sewage that is Xitter today. Here on Bluesky I’m able to enjoy posts and commentary from interesting people without afterwards needing to shower.
I was talking to a source today about my “X-odus” and it’s really for me about a site where every other tweet is either a cheap ad or a “featured post” from someone I don’t care to see (while seeing less of the people I do). I’m having way more fun and feel my work is valued more over here!
Way to go, Elon.

Trump is always one to exaggerate - always preoccupied with size. Keep reminding everyone how teeny tiny his winning margin really is.
REMINDER: trump does not have a mandate.
His margin of victory is itsy-bitsy, teeny-weeny, super small.
One of the smallest in HISTORY.
Smaller than President Biden's.
Smaller than President Obama's.
Smaller than Bush's.
TINY.
