I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.
They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

If you’re a journalist who’s still on Twitter, from now on in your writing you have to replace “the American people want” with “troll bots in Eastern Europe demand”
Being there makes your judgment suspect. I don’t care how savvy you think you are, you’re marinating in a disinformation campaign.

It is hard to be a competitive athlete. All consuming. I have to imagine it must be incredibly hard to build a life for yourself that wasn’t ready made. No way it’s easy to navigate physical, emotional, familial, social, aesthetic changes. Add that on top of competing. Someone needs that reality.

Now they’re trying to do the same thing to another vulnerable community and I will NOT be a part of it. Not in my name. Riley Gaines is the next Kim Davis and Pete’s legally married self just pulled up the ladder. We. Don’t. Pull. Up. The. Ladder.
there aren’t “men” downgrading hormonal performance to hoodwink women out of the podium for second-class athletic citizenry in this sexist country. Title IX was to ensure women weren’t barred from competing. It wasn’t to keep men out of our sports. It was because they wouldn’t let US in.

Hard disagree. Buttigieg's recent appearances prove he's out of touch with the populist moment we're in. Jasmine Crockett offered to be the spokesperson and the old guard blocked her. The Dems need someone who is youngish, passionate, tough and unafraid to call the fascists out.

Does the Democratic Party have messaging? Sounds like I’m being sarcastic but I’m not. In all sincerity, is there any real cohesive messagging?
If they need some pointers, it’s about the corruption. And the cruelty.
It’s about Americans fending off the 1%ers from consuming the last of our flesh.

Vindman for the call-that-led-to impeachment repeat
Yesterday, Trump defended the Saudi Crown Prince in the Oval Office.
He said he had “nothing” to do with the murder of Jamal Khashoggi.
But I reviewed a call while serving on Trump’s NSC that I believe would be of interest to the Khashoggi family and the American people.
Release the transcript.

I don’t use X, so haven’t verified this practice. But it IS interesting to see X’s privacy policy in the AppStore doesn’t address this disclosure of info.
X has changed their policy and now you can see where the accounts are based.

I view this MBS sit down as an attempt to intimidate the media. Cozying up to a journalist butcher who condemned the same kind of authoritarian nonsense we’re fighting here? In the midst of the Epstein scandal’s zenith?
