I’m sure Elon is telling the truth here.
Because he knows how he did it.
And it had nothing to do with his scintillating personality and irresistible charm.
He was jumping up and down like an elfin sprite on ecstasy for a reason. It’s time we learn how.

So I guess the people who pretended Joe Biden was a criminal for the last four years are just gonna pretend Trump isn’t one for the next four.

The unimaginable is about to be visited upon the US. Half the country is sleepwalking into it. The other half is forced to clean up after them or be dragged down with them. I will never forgive those people until the day I die. Which is now more likely to be in the next four years than ever before.

America closes Monday, after a 248 year run. As of its final performance on Sunday, January 19, it will have failed to recoup Democracy to its investors.

We are about to see, exponentially over the next four years, how greed and stupidity feed off each other in unimaginable ways. It’s going to be unimaginably cruel, depraved, criminal and deadly.
I feel like we’ve been fighting off the Orcs since 2015 and the Orcs won.
Hope I’m wrong.

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.

Either
1) Trump is terrible at vetting, or
2) Trump is deliberately putting up dirty nominees — people with big flaws, scandals, allegations, etc — so he can lord it over them and demand absolute loyalty
I’m leaning toward 2 — what about you?

The REAL story on Pam Bondi, Trump University, and Trump's $25,000 payment to Bondi:
1/ In August 2013, I was at the NY AG, and Bondi was Florida AG.
On August 24, 2013, I filed the NY AG's prosecution of Trump University and Donald Trump, for $42 million in fraud. 🧵

As much as I sympathize with Joe and @morningmika.bsky.social’s fear of retribution from Trump (and I do), their pilgrimage to Mar-a-Lago is a surrender of any pretense they may have had to journalism. They capitulated to a tyrant when courage was required. Their credibility is shattered. #MorningNo

Lee: When Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson was up for confirmation or when VP Harris was added to the ticket, they called them DEI hires. They want you to believe that Harvard graduate with over 20 years of experience is not qualified but Fox personality is qualified to run the DOD

I understand @morningjoe and Mika Brzezinski trying to engage Trump in the name of journalism but it is disconcerting to watch them normalize his insane, corrupt, criminal and dangerous behavior. 4 more years of this? At least?

Blocking Nazis, trolls, and fascists doesn’t make it an “echo chamber.” People need to stop gaslighting us into thinking we have to listen to Nazis and debate trolls in order to be informed.
