There are a lot of good reporters at @cbs58.bsky.social. I hope management understands that firing their own employees for the benefit of far-right billionaires like Musk is a dangerous road to go down.

I just left an… animated voicemail on the @cbs58.bsky.social tip line voicemail telling them to reinstate @samkuffelwx.bsky.social. I suggest you do the same!

Elon Musk was the sole person behind the “RBG PAC” that ran ads saying Trump would never sign a national abortion ban.

He spent $20M on this.

Thoughts on Hunter pardon:

- I don’t love it, but I completely understand why he did it

- with everything the incoming administration is telling us they’re going to do, we probably need to stop handcuffing ourselves with standards they won’t follow

- I wish it wasn’t this way

The deep goal of bluesky is to decentralize the social internet so that every individual controls their experience of it rather than having it be controlled by 5 random billionaires. Everyone thinks they signed up for a demuskified twitter...we actually signed an exciting and bizarre experiment.

“Don’t feed the trolls” also extends to bad opinion pieces in papers of record.

They run them bc people react to them the most.

If we stop linking to bad columns and instead post thinkers we find valuable (& generate convo around it), incentives change.

It’s not easy and takes constant practice!

Not only is helping Ukraine positive for the US economy as a whole, it individually helps a bunch of red states.

So naturally, the GOP hates it.

Since no one at DoJ will hold Trump accountable when he breaks the law - and he will break the law - we are going to need to rely on lawsuits to block him and slow him down. That's why we should all support the good work of @marcelias.bsky.social and @democracydocket.com.

Which is precisely why the GOP constantly seeks to control and degrade the education process.

If you keep voters dumb and afraid, they’re far easier to manipulate.
Most of our problems could be solved by properly funding public education.

Thanks for this...this left wing conspiracism bullshit is maddening. Conspiracy theories are the purview of people either unwilling to face ugly truths or too addled to understand how systems work. Stop. Organize. Resist. Don't ascribe secret power to people who don't possess it.
Please stop asking me about this.

I wrote on Twitter that there’s no evidence of a stolen election.

I’ve written here that there’s no evidence of a stolen election.

I checked Spoonamore’s data; it was factually wrong. Snopes concurs.

Any claim I ever supported rigged-election silliness is a lie.
Claims in 'Duty to Warn' Letter to Harris Alleging Compromised Election Are Misleading
Its writer alleged, "In my view it is a near certainty the results have been changed at a scale which reversed the [2024] U.S. presidential election."
