There’s stupid … and then there’s Trump Stupid. That’s a whole other level of stupid.

Many are reckoning w the role Elon played in the election & how he artificially manipulated X’s algorithm for his purposes. There is real concern about legitimizing misinfo w/ their presence.

Of course, there ARE people there, and that is not easily dismissed.

But talks of a larger switch are real

Fun fact: there’s never been a Democratic director of the FBI in its entire history.

there will be more articles written next week about the threat of “cancel culture” than there will be about this

And ironically the articles chastising people to stay on Twitter won’t even circulate on there or Meta because they both suppress links to journalism! 😂

People are leaving Twitter because it’s not fun anymore and no one is obligated to be on a platform they don’t enjoy.

It’s not rocket science.

These losers do this because their only shot at companionship is a hostage situation, so they spend all day harassing people into thinking a woman’s self worth should resemble their own.

If they tried being kind and not approaching every relationship as a transaction, they would be much happier

"Repeat after me: there was no 'landslide'. There was no 'blowout'. There was no 'sweeping' mandate given to Trump by the electorate. The numbers don’t lie."

My new Guardian op-ed on the new GOP election lie - and why it's important to rebut it! I brought (lots of) receipts:

Call me crazy, but I think Justin Sun, a Chinese national being prosecuted for fraud by the SEC, sending Trump $18 million should be a bigger story

The direct enrichment of Trump by a foreign national weeks before he takes office has merited no coverage in the NYT or Washington Post

Sometimes the combination of arrogance and ignorance is breathtaking. Yes, US health care has high admin costs; that's because it relies so much on private insurers. Govt-run health insurance has much lower overhead

AOC: This brings me to Hanlon's razor which is to not ascribe to malice what can be more easily attributed to stupidity

Last night, I spoke with Amnesty International's executive director about their new report on Israel's war in Gaza and its conclusion that Israel is committing genocide.

I’m excited for @gregcasar.bsky.social’s leadership at the Progressive Caucus. He’s going to be great.

They’re planning a heist in plain sight.

Don't assume maximalist outcomes for the Trump administration. That's a form of psychological surrender. We should attempt to exploit every stumble, failure, and misstep, and there will be stumbles, failures, and missteps.
