Can someone tell me exactly what this would have changed, exactly? His actual advisors came out calling him a fascist. Bill Barr spoke out against him to the J6 committee. This is just another drop in the ocean.

I listen to conservative, centrist, and lefty podcasts because I find value in hearing out disparate opinions.

I often disagree with The Bulwark, even turning off segments mid-stream because a contributor is so grotesque. But most of the hosts are honest people who value truth and reason.

Today, November 25th 2024 is the day we officially learned that justice in America, in fact, does NOT matter. #sad
The moral of the story, kids: It’s fine to try to stop the peaceful transfer of power and incite a mob to storm the Capitol and do all you can to overturn an election as long as you run again and win 🇺🇸

This will mean higher gas prices, higher alcohol prices, higher food prices, higher building prices, higher car prices, higher pharmaceutical prices, etc. Trump is about to teach Americans who *actually* pays for tariffs (the consumers do).

More than anything, this speaks to the Democrats' messaging problem. We cannot afford for them to change hearts and minds one tweet at a time.

This is why Trump won.

Is that what we're calling it? Skeeting? Is that really what we want to call it? Are you sure?

On one hand, this is exactly what he said he would do, so no surprise here.

On the other hand, having seen what DADT did to people I loved, this absolutely breaks my heart for those called to serve. 💔😭

Why is anyone acting surprised? My YT feed is full of exposés of the latest Trump picks and they're all "latest pick is the person who is the opposite of good, and also a predator/apologist".

When you vote for trash, you get trash. Am I supposed to be shocked?
Difficult to describe what a dangerous moment we are in.

The owner of Twitter/richest man in the world/closest adviser to the next US president is promoting a far-right Tommy Robinson (!) documentary to his 200 million followers.

This is the mainstreaming of violent, Islamophobic fascism.

In fact, a good proportion of scientific researchers are autistic, so you could say that autism causes vaccines.
If anyone believes vaccines cause autism, or, anything else, then you, my friend, are a blooming idiot.
Vaccines do not cause autism.

Honestly, part of me kind of hopes that traditional media dies under Trump. They are not the paragons of journalistic integrity they pretend to be.
So did all these news orgs just schedule these pieces for *after* the election or what

For the @nytimes.com I wrote about how Enough is Enough with the incumbent president and his cabinet of folly and let’s stop coddling Trump voters and be real clear-eyed about what lies ahead. www.nytimes.com/2024/11/17/o...

To suggest we should yield even a little to Trump’s odious politics is unacceptable. Even if we did, it would never be enough.

This is what happens when an app is created by people who care about making something people want to use.

I fucking hate in-app browsers - I have to login everytime I click a link to a page where I have an account, because the in-app browsers NEVER remember me.

all other things being equal, when confronted with one team of people recruiting you to Be a Thing and another team recruiting you to Do a Thing, please give serious thought to joining the second.

The point is to make everyone so dumb that they vote for the guy promising 100% tariffs because they believe him when he says China will pay for it.
Eliminating the Department of Education has to be one of the dumbest ideas of my lifetime.

I will forever pronounce it "BLOO-skee". The shorthand bsky will forever be "BUSS-kee".
Bluesky is now the #2 social app in the US, Canada, and #3 in the UK 🦋

On bsky, ~30% of y'all are posters compared to the 1% main characters on other platforms. Turns out there's more chattiness & connection when you have algorithmic choice 🤭

This is the truth. Dems need to start NOW getting surrogates on any podcast that will take them. The Left doesn't need a "Lefty Joe Rogan" because Joe Rogan isn't Left or Right. He's an idiot with a huge platform, and Dems need to take advantage.
A note to Dem campaigns: You won't persuade voters with a one-off appearance on a popular podcast the week before the election (which is not a knock on Harris' campaign; she only had a couple months so they did all they could). The reason Republicans are winning over so many young people is because
