All of these bootlegged copies of the 60 Minutes segment flooding my feed (saying, ‘Watch it quick! Before it disappears!’) makes me feel like I’m in the Soviet Union and just got some black market foreign newspaper I need to hide under a floorboard in my house.

Nothing on NYT front page about Trump calling for Democrats to be executed.

Nothing on WAPO front page about Trump calling for Democrats to be executed.

Nothing on CBS News front page. ABC News. CNN. NBC News.

You're all failing. Shame on all of you.

Front and center. No excuse.

The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased.

Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power.

Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable.

But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless.

I bet the White House staff is busy setting up a bunch of cardboard cutouts in the Oval Office like in Home Alone

True.
Every lawyer in line to advise potential Democratic presidential candidates is drafting right now a host of policies that could be implemented without fear of nationwide injunctions slowing them down.

BREAKING:

The opinion of a random person you just encountered online is not, in fact, the universally embraced belief of "the Left" or "Liberals" or whoever else you'd like to paint with a broad brush.

More as this story develops.

The president has covered the Oval Office in gold, is planning a massive military parade for his birthday, and is now accepting $400,000,000 luxury planes from foreign powers as personal presents.

What the fuck are we doing here?

Anyone Trump-aligned or Trump-adjacent is toxic to the rest of the world. We are the only country with enough people that think the malignant narcissist, criminal, and moronic two-bit con man should be in charge. It’s the same reason why televangelists have always thrived here.

We need a Navalny, not a Newsom.

No offense intended against mainstream politicians like Newsom.

It’s just that at this point we are way beyond the realm of normal bullshit politics.

I will use every tool at my disposal to protect this country from Trump. I will litigate to defend voting rights until there are no cases left to bring. I will speak out against authoritarianism until my last breath.

I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.

From Marc | Elon Musk recently posted on his site that another lawyer and I are “undermining civilization.” This is my response.

This is your mission. We take our power back now at the local and state level. Stop waiting for a national hero. It’s you. Get to work.

The internet had the potential to make humans so much smarter and interconnected. Instead, it's dumbing us down and siloing us off. A real tragedy.

Imagine if 2 weeks before the inauguration in 2021, a top donor to Biden, who he had appointed to a top position in his administration, had gone on Twitter & said to a member of the public ‘f u retard’. Imagine the media response - and the pressure on Biden.

Just imagine.

Thank you to everyone who offered kind words and support today. The struggle to protect democracy is the fight of our generation.

No matter what our legacy institutions do:

We cannot back down.
We must not give in.
We will not obey.

In that week when Musk bought Twitter & started bungling it, the possibility occurred to me that he'd bought it to end its usefulness as a pro-democracy tool. I'm so grateful for BlueSky & the fact that we're all here now & that it's increasing possible to get our news here too!
