I’m starting to wonder if looking genuinely happy and acting like you really love the city is a more effective way to campaign (and govern) than scowling about what a shithole the city is and how many more cops it will take to subdue it.
Outside Gracie Mansion. This is his job. But dare I day it he seems genuinely affected and happy to be there. There’s potentially immense power in that.

They expect - they NEED - the people they threaten to fall in line, like the law firms and universities and media companies and billionaires and Congress did. If you say “No, make me,” they simply do not have a Plan B. TRUMP DOES NOT HAVE ENOUGH GUYS TO MAKE YOU.

the funniest thing is he’s not running again and he knows it. some of you piss pants babies think elections are over, but they aren’t. he’s not gonna be president in 2029. he’s just trying to cause as much wreckage as possible before he dies.

he’s legit a destroyer. maybe the worst american ever.

We cannot ignore the murderous sophists like Ilan Wurman and Randy Barnett who write lies in blood. We must hold them accountable.

what the hell is this revisionist nonsense? This *did not happen*—except in the minds of the far-right. You're buying their bad faith bullshit. MAGA called for and now is building a white ethnostate b/c *they are white nationalists*. That's what they do. FFS

It's almost impossible for me to believe otherwise.
I'd bet a lot of money that a lot of orders to principal officers of the United States have come only from Stephen Miller.

“Trump invaded Venezuela, kidnapped its president, stole a bunch of its oil, sold it, and stashed the money in banks in Qatar” is a stone-cold CLASSIC of this genre
The stuff in the GOP bill is some of the clearest ever examples of "if you explain what Republicans are doing in straightforward factual terms an otherwise under-informed normie will think you have entirely lost your mind and can't be trusted"

This was simultaneously hilarious and damning examination of the shoddiness of Isaacson’s work. It’s something we came across multiple times in reporting our own book and factchecking it against his.
Episode 48: Elon Musk, Part 2

Over the course of several years, the richest man in the world lost his mind. His biographer didn’t seem to notice.

I have the utmost respect for Senator Kaine and Senator Warner but we do not need “coaching” on redistricting coming from a cuck chair in the corner. How about you all stay focused on the fascist in the White House and let us handle redistricting in Virginia. 10-1

JD Vance: "Denmark hasn't done a good job at keeping Greenland safe."

Just out of curiosity, when was the last time that a Greenlander was shot dead by a masked agent of their own government?

When?!
