Yet again the left have to play the serious mom figure who has to be responsible and play by the rules of civility while the right gets to be a deadbeat dad who ties firecrackers to his friend’s testicles and lights them up just to see what happens and everyone has a jolly laugh and a beer 😒

Not going to read too much into it, obviously Trump is the worst man alive, and is going to revert to saying the most odious shit imaginable in like an hour, but it's funny that this is coming a couple hours after 90 democrat losers voted to say "socialism is bad" for no reason.

This thread, plucked from this week’s newsletter, will likely change your perspective on extreme wealth.
Part of this week’s newsletter was inspired by the post below. Was there a way to show the distance between normal Americans and the super wealthy?

I’m not sure that the extent of the #Epstein client list will ever be fully known, but I do think that everyone should be prepared to be very disappointed in people they have admired and respected. Anyone working in media, journalism, politics, higherEd, entertainment: you will have some awful peers

This feels like peak infantilisation of the elderly.

What exactly is ‘disgraceful’ about giving the elderly/infirm practical advice about how to be physically intimate in a safe way? They aren’t children. Their innocent eyes don’t need to be protected. Plus it’s medical guidance not a jazz mag

John Laws is dead. One of Australia's most successful broadcasters. As a teenager I rang his show. We argued for 10mins on air. He hung up on me with the words "you're obviously a loser in life & going nowhere. Goodbye."

There had better be trials. And not just for the low-level thugs carrying out these orders, but for everyone up the chain of command.

If we get past this, the solution isn’t to pretend it never happened and invite Stephen Miller to Harvard’s Institute of Politics.

It’s trials w real punishments.
A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.
