I am a writer, historian, teacher, and director living in right-wing Texas (for now). I am looking for a place to go that is not that hellscape that used to be Twitter.

Former Supreme Court law clerk here.
Students, if you have the credentials to go to almost any law firm, go to one like Wilmer Hale that hasn't bent the knee to DJT. And don't go to ones that cave.
It's hard enough to practice law. Don't do it working for Quislings.

Trump is unconstitutionally freezing federal funds that Congress sent our constituents and dismantling the democratic system. This isn't business as usual—Congress needs to stop it. I will not support any Trump nominee who will do his illegal bidding. I urge my colleagues to join.

MAGA congresswoman Maria Salazar is getting ROASTED on Twitter for asking Trump to not deport Cubans.... umm, my dear sister in Christ: you campaigned for this. You did this to your people and now you're pleading for mercy?
What did she think was going to happen?

Trump on Elon Musk: "He knows those computers better than anybody. All those computers. Those vote-counting computers. And we ended up winning Pennsylvania like in a landslide."

He's doing the playbook...don't listen...don't obey. He's setting the savior narrative.
He who controls the media controls the narrative
This TikTok drama is an example
The capitulation of several news outlets proves Trump is taking over control of the narrative
It is up to us to resist in advance
To cancel news subscriptions that promote propaganda
To post FACTS

Harris barely lost despite all the challenges and her own campaign mistakes. Trump has never gotten 50%. A divided man leads a divided and self-destructive country. Also, PA workers, sadly, are going to go through some things under Trump and his policies.

Rudy Giuliani: the reality is I have no cash. Right now, if I want to call a taxi, I can't do it. I don't have a credit card; I don't have a checking account. I have no place I can go take cash out, except a little bit that I saved but its getting down to almost nothing
