Really unnerving point from Nicole Hemmer, historian of the right: Trump's Epstein fiasco could drive MAGA to push him to go even fuller authoritarian, because the whole project is now in such serious doubt. She's so good on MAGA's future.

Below are two videos showing the White House vs Waldorf Astoria renovations. Can someone knowledgable about the relevant trades breakdown what it took to do each one? What was the process? How much human skill and craftsmanship were involved?

I’m seriously not trying to rain on anyone’s parade but “you can see the Northern Lights in New Mexico” seems like a line of dialogue in the first ten minutes of a movie where the world ends.

When you’re someone who receives death threats (like me) or has a stalker (like @regretagarbo.rip), the site automatically hiding replies from us puts us at EXTREME risk.

@pfrazee.com can we please address the safety concerns with this automod? this is putting people like me in danger.

twitter hiding replies from me is how my stalker was able to reply to me for months talking about raping me and cutting me into pieces without my knowledge. he was violating my protection order and i didn’t even know it.
it kept him out of jail.
