“Those nasty Canadians are ripping us off and are controlled by Mexican cartels. They’re poisoning us with fentanyl and need to become the 51st state or they will pay a high price” is a belief that literally ZERO Americans had six weeks ago. It’s entirely invented from scratch.

SOTU seats are not assigned. There are general seating areas for each body (House, Senate, SCOTUS,etc) but there are honored seats for each party’s leadership and they’re even trying to squat those.

If it doesn’t sort out, be aware you may see applause on both sides of the aisle but they may be GOP

Yes, they’re identical twins. And I also love the squinting! Someday I may write a book about our whole adoption experience—it’s a long (but wonderful) story.

Yes, the first episode of my podcast is on Spotify. But it’s not political — it’s about the world’s most fascinating unsolved mysteries! 😃

The #1 reported reason people avoid doctor’s appointments is because they’re afraid of finding out they have a serious illness.

If you have that fear, that’s normal and you’re not alone. Also remember, there is basically no serious illness that isn’t less serious if you catch it sooner.

my take is that your willingness to accept this gulf of america nonsense is an indicator of your willingness to accept much worse things coming from this administrator
Trump’s decision to rename the Gulf of Mexico may be upsetting to some, writes @giladedelman.bsky.social, but “in a democracy, values are determined by majority rule, and they don’t shift in only one direction. They can shift back”:
‘The Gulf of America’ Is the Wrong Fight to Pick
The more that politicians mess around with place names, the more important it is to respond according to consistent principles.

I’ve applied to a couple of places, but either haven’t heard back or they went with someone else.

Trump’s inauguration is going to feature the three richest men in the world. His cabinet is set to have a record number of billionaires.

So obvious Dems need to return to populist FDR roots.

But they don’t want to alienate big money, so instead we hear about how it’s time to abandon trans people.

Dear White People:
Stop asking Joe & Kamala to protect you & this country from Trump & The GOP. You had an assignment, you failed as usual. Go talk to your inner circle & families as they are the ones that did this. Take responsibility. Oh right it’s easier to point fingers.

THREAD: In 2023, I received an envelope with no return address. Inside was a flash drive containing tens of 1000s of secret files.

It came from a vigilante with a tumultuous past, who'd conducted a years-long undercover operation. He didn’t tell the FBI or his family. He only told me.
