It's big Trump protest day so that means we are mere hours away from my least favorite Bluesky: the Russian disinfo surge.

Here's how it works, and what you can do about it. 🧵

Has anyone validated that this is a real photo? I know the situation is real, but is this photo?

MSNBC is reporting that Kash Patel fired another FBI agent today because they refused to arrest and perp walk James Comey. It's all for show—they want to embarrass the guy and put on a big display for their base. They know the case is going to get thrown out by the courts.

They have changed the title, it's now "how the manosphere hijacks young men's interest in science." Much better!

He's fixated on appearance because he has no substance.He thinks the way to have a prepared Army is for everyone to look the part because it doesn't occur to him there's anything more to it than looking the part-like a little kid in an army costume. Shallow, naive, ego driven. We are so screwed.

“Mifepristone is very safe. It’s safer than Viagra (remember the MEN!). What’s happening now isn’t about science—it’s about controlling women’s bodies and the narrative, so the more shitty data and putrid hot takes introduced as science, the better.”

It took just three days to get Sinclair to back down, and what it got in exchange for agreeing to put Kimmel back on the air was...nothing. This is not what happens every time you stand up to a bully, but if you don't fight back, you'll never know if you would have won.

If we’re renaming departments and calling the DOD the “Department of War”, we might as well go ahead and make the DOJ the “Department of Revenge”
