@karaswisher.bsky.social if you haven’t read 11/22/63 by @stephenking.bsky.social you MUST! Great time travel back to try & undo JFK’s assassination. 8 episode Hulu series w/James Franco is fantastic.

@nicollewallace.bsky.social @jheil.bsky.social exposed Eddie Glaude today. What is Eddie doing to respond to Trump’s National guard & Marines overreach besides coming on your show? He threw away his vote by NOT voting for Hillary, so he helped Trump…he lost my respect when you had him own that.

The fact that it wasn’t will forever be America’s shame.

Very good question.

You ever have a group project in school & you wish some of the people the teacher put in your group, weren’t in your group, because you knew that you’d either fail with them or have to carry more weight than you should?!

Harris would have been an excellent president. She would have had capable advisers. She would have transformed the Dem Party with muscular progressivism. I’m still not over it

I need someone to explain to me why it’s always “if you can’t pay rent, buy fewer lattes and avocado toasts” and not “if you can’t pay your employees a living wage, buy fewer yachts and real estate”. Explain it to me like I’m in kindergarten.

"The Times piece reads, 'For years, Trump has made it known that people he believes to be his enemies should be prosecuted.' It’s like reading from an alternate reality. Jailing dissenters is not a policy position. It’s a hallmark of an authoritarian regime." -- @playtyperguy.com

so if I'm understanding the tech-bro position correctly, it's this

While Dems focus on whether Harris' loss was b/c she was too far right or left, we've ignored Russia's successful election interference by bomb threats in swing states. If we do nothing, we should expect the threats/violence to escalate in future elections. www.publicnotice.co/p/election-2...

After dinner tonight, my younger sister told me: "When I was younger, I used to sit at the table with the men after holiday dinners, watching the women clean up and thinking--why don't they just sit? Now I realize, if they didn't do it, no one would."

Sorta says it all

I’m not in a very charitable mood with them either, to tell the truth.

Well would you look at that.

All the finest character witnesses.

A fair question.

Corporate media’s failure to explore Musk's ties to China is indefensible. This is a national security issue. Apparently the wealthy oligarchs who own corporate media don’t want to go after a fellow plutocrat. My new article: deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/did-musk-b...

Does anyone believe that the same corporate media that helped normalize Trump after he attempted a coup and incited the Jan 6 terrorist attack because he was good for ratings won't help Trump run for a third term by telling us the 22nd Amendment has "never been tested" before"? Of course they will.

Section 3 of the 14th Amendment is crystal clear that any person who had previously taken an oath to the US and then "engaged in insurrection" is barred from holding federal office. As the Colorado Supreme Court ruled, Trump engaged in an insurrection. US Supreme Court did NOT overrule that.

Did Musk tank a spending bill because it would have harmed his business in China? From @theprospect.bsky.social prospect.org/politics/202...

You cannot find common cause “on core issues like corruption” with supporters of Trump, who is far and away the most corrupt president in history and isn’t even pretending to divest from his business this time around. Come on.

Remember when it was a massive scandal that Russians donated to Trump by using straw men to buy tickets to his inaugural and $50M went unaccounted for? That’s going to seem quaint compared to the next four years. Especially with immunity. Buckle in.

THIS makes me think

Elon Musk is a threat to every Western democracy that opposes his white supremacist agenda.

Destroy this myth. Please share if you have visited and researched in a library this past year! RT And give a shout out to your favorite library you have ever visited.

can’t wait for Elon to change the country’s name to UXA

Sadly, this is the case for far too many people.

You can take Elon Musk out of apartheid but you can not take the apartheid out of Elon.

This

Elon musk is a cancer. Period.
