I can't wait for the MAGA world to freak out about how an "American" team should win the World Series. When the Dodgers have Japanese citizens as three of their best players 🤣

Just saw an amazing summary from a British columnist at the FT: Stephen Miller is the Prime Minister to Trump's king. HT to @edwardluce.bsky.social

Anyone claiming that RFK Jr follows the scientific method should prove that they understand what the scientific method is. Given their hypothesis about RFK Jr, gather and evaluate evidence, and them evaluate their hypothesis against the evidence.

Spot on. This is the clearest explanation I’ve seen. It ‘s relatable, and humanizes the issue in a way everyone can understand.

Just read Snow Crash again for the first time in 15+ years and I'm stunned at how well it has held up 30 years after publication. I love that book so much

How WEAK is your government if an unarmed protest is an "insurrection"?

One thing that would really help us out here as if individuals showing contempt for the judicial process were barred from utilizing the judicial process. Trump wants to ignore the courts? Fine. He can no longer sue anyone in any court for any purpose.

Don’t like it? Obey the goddamn court.

I keep waiting for more and more people to realize that the emperor has no clothes. I know it's a propaganda-insulated cult, and admitting you were wrong is incredibly difficult, but... it's got to sink in sometime? Doesn't it?

Love that all of these tariffs strongly incentivize smuggling (aka "importing things without following the rules"), and that we're doing all of these tariffs because... of too much fentanyl smuggling? At least from Canada and Mexico?

Florida is #1! Just learned that 1 in 6 Floridians are enrolled in Affordable Care Act marketplaces. And Texas is #2 at about 10% of the population. California is #3, followed by a bunch more "red states" - Georgia, both Carolinas, and Tennessee. (Absolute enrollment numbers, not % of population)

Facebook Memories served up this excellent reminder of "Why I run" from 11 years ago. It's been a little while since I had that feeling, but I'm still chasing it. #running
