At what point did @unitedairlinesx.bsky.social decide to become shills for the Administration? My grandfather joined United in the mid-1930s and stayed until was too ill to continue in the 1970s. I was always proud of that association. Not anymore. Luckily, there are a lot of other airlines to fly

We’re definitely in Bizarroland when the President who promised to drain the swamp can talk about pardoning a convicted sex trafficker without a bingo of shame or irony

It’s really quite remarkable how out of touch with Democrats are. With every single constituent demographic. Just tone deaf across the board

Now that Assad has fallen and fled to Moscow, Tulsi Gabbard will only have to take one trip to be advised on U.S. foreign policy. So convenient for Putin and Assad to make it a one-stop shop.

Here’s the truth about how our institutions work—inertia is the default. There are a thousand pathway to get to “no.” Housing, public transit, you name it. So obvious fixes don’t get done or cost 10x as much as they should. That’s a big reason people have lost faith in our government

If I hear one more Trumpist talk about “unity,” I’m really going to lose it.
