We're all going to write pieces about what you can learn from tonight but it's actually pretty simple: The frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

BTW for maga, it was never about pedophiles. It was about hating fellow Americans and the pedophile charge was a convenient way to put a moral mask on that.
The second Trump failed to release the files, because he’s in them, they defended him.

Congressional hearings don’t do shit except make it LOOK like they’re doing something. The J6 committee hearings were some of the best I’ve seen & they led NOWHERE. They give false hope. Right now all branches of government have been stolen. This political theater is part of how we got here.

The people who get mad about this kind of honesty are largely not people who will be persuaded by the evidence that the person was horrible. Half the hate mail I've gotten has informed me that I have no evidence Kirk was a bigot, and I laid out evidence *in the column they're complaining about.*
I've never thought there was a bad time to be honest about the fact that a horrible person is/was horrible. But after this week's whitewashing of Kirk by the media and political commentariat, it feels not just permissible but essential to fight both sentimentality and dishonesty at top volume.

I rarely post personal things. But I need to talk about my 4-year-old niece, Hope.
She has a rare disease. A drug called elamipretide has helped her survive.
But the FDA recently denied its approval.
Now, her health hangs in the balance.
Please share her story & urge the FDA to reconsider. 🧵

Corruption requires explict quid pro quo. It is not corrupt to take an action that aligns with the interest of a person who gives you a gift, unless the official action was in direct response to that gift--a bribe. Terms matter. Accuracy and fairness matters. Regardless of what social media wants.

Re-reading Gatsby and I can’t imagine why this line stood out:
“They were careless people, Tom and Daisy—they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess...”
