Road report:

-I haven't done anything on Xitter since Nov 2024.

-Via someone's account, recently trawled through the main news feed.

It actually is shocking. Between the Grok-generated sexploitation, and white-supremacist cheerleading, that's most of the feed.

No "real" org should be there.

🚨 NEW VIDEO 👇🏽This puts an end to all the lies. Horrific.

They were having a calm exchange seconds before he murdered Renee Good, and she was barely moving and clearly avoiding him.

Stop the lies.

As an independent online journalist my very living relies 100% upon engaging people on the internet who may become subscribers. I built my business on Twitter, but I fully left the platform over a year. 2025 was nonetheless my best year yet. If I don't need Twitter no one does. Get off it now.
I reached out to more than three dozen X advertisers, xAI investors, politicians, and government agencies about the growing library of sexualized deepfakes generated with Grok—now including Renee Good. I only heard back from four, with three declining to comment.

Why isn't there a bigger Grok boycott?
Advertisers, politicians, and investors are still all-in on X, despite a sexual abuse crisis.

After the assassination of Melissa Hortman it’s not hard to understand why a woman in Minnesota would be afraid of a man in a mask who says he’s a cop.

Trump regime ICE forces attacked witnesses and onlookers at the scene of the Minneapolis ICE murder. People defended themselves with snowballs and tried to block them from fleeing.

Members of Congress: stop posting online and APPEAR, PHYSICALLY on the steps of the Capitol to decry this unconstitutional violation of domestic & international law. SHOW THE PEOPLE the level of danger we are facing as a country.

That, and also I have to keep reminding myself that for however monumentally bleak it was/is, the year showed a ton of meaningful solidarity and support from ordinary, everyday, working people from all kinds of backgrounds, showing up and fighting for one another even in the face of actual violence…
2025 was a tough year for a variety of reasons, but I very much appreciate all of you, my pocket friends. Sending y’all my best wishes for 2026.

Wait so DOGE, which the Beltway media breathlessly and credulously reported day after day on as if it were a legitimate enterprise and not the haphazard, zigzagging frat kegger it clearly was ...

This is what happens when the FBI is run by two right-wing conspiracy theorist podcasters who spent the last 11 months purging almost anyone with institutional knowledge from the bureau. They're going to keep fucking this kind of thing up.

The wanton destruction of USAID by Musk and his DOGE flunkies was, by definition, a criminal act and it is by far the most consequential thing done in Trump's name. Thousands are dead for no reason other than racist cruelty. Trump, Musk, Rubio, and several others belong in prison for this.

The fact that this, and every other Trump pardonee who has subsequently broken the law, has not ended Trump's political career, that it barely even registers on the national discourse, underlines just how far we are from a functioning democracy that values accountability.
A man pardoned by Donald Trump for his role in January 6th - he assaulted Capitol Police officers with bear spray & a metal whip - has avoided prison for child sex crimes because of the president’s sweeping pardon, despite pleading guilty to soliciting what he believed was a 15-year-old girl for sex

i want to repeat this: mamdani and spanberger have run similar campaigns tailored to their respective electorates and it is maddening to watch political journalists attempt to create some broad contrast where none exist
the other thing about this is that there is no reason to pit these candidates against each other? each are good fits for their respective electorates and each shows the value of vigorous campaigns focused on the stated material problems of voters.

Where is your Member of Congress during this government shutdown?

For five straight weeks, House Republicans have refused to re-open the House, refuse to negotiate, and even refuse to hold town halls.

Disgraceful.

it’s beyond comprehension that scenes like this have become routine in chicago.

masked soldiers are carelessly lobbing chemical weapons—that are banned from use during warfare—on random residential streets.

this is the third time feds have tear-gassed residents in chicago *this week!*
Video from witness here from the moment CBP gassed neighbors who had gathered outside after the kidnapping.
