Here’s an angle for a journalist looking for a fresh take on the White House “Antifa” roundtable — most of the people who participated are employed by or have a direct financial connection to Turning Point USA. I think that’s pretty telling, no?

@mgoseth.bsky.social I think I can sum up my Rod Moore feelings thusly

This reminds me of one of my favorite running jokes: @shaneburley.bsky.social is legally Andy Ngo’s father after this review of Andy’s book proteanmag.com/2021/03/03/a...

I really expected America to become the Boys more gradually

I have never seen someone fail upward quite like Bari Weiss

SCOOP: PA prosecutors were alerted to possible voting irregularities by one of MAGA's leading voices. A long paper trail shows Jack Posobiec has been living in Maryland but voting using his parent's address in Pennsylvania for years. Me with @marisakabas.bsky.social slate.com/news-and-pol...

@drewmagary.bsky.social you mentioned you’re on Wegovy. Have you been late taking it? And if so, have you had side effects? Because I take Zepbound and I started to set an alarm because being even an hour late would devastate me

I genuinely love when one writer I admire promotes another. Drew and Vince have written two of my favorite essays in the last 20 years (Drew’s “the reckoning always comes” and Vince’s review of Benjamin Button). They’re both right, OBAA kicks ass.

Okay, so: 1. I say this with no evidence but I believe Memphis is being invaded by the feds because Stephen Miller is an Elvis fanatic and he went and got angry about something. 2. Comparing the Trump Regime to a gang is telling

I don't think the leopards have ever eaten faces quite so blatantly as this.

Very clear implication here that Musk wants the ADL investigated by the FBI as a hate group. Considering who's in charge there, he may get his wish.

What a contemptuous bunch of cowards the ADL has become jewishinsider.com/2025/09/adl-...

The ADL thought it could fall in line with Musk and it would stop his attacks on them. Instead, it just made them complicit, legitimized Musk, and ultimately didn’t actually change him at all. This is how fascists work. Greenblatt tried being transactional: for fascists, it only goes one way.

And for folding to authoritarians, in exchange for a false promise of Jewish safety, what does the ADL get in return? Viciously attacked by the same people they cozied up to. 3/ bsky.app/profile/elad...

FIGHT CLUB is radicalizing people on the left?!

If you want some solace, and this may be copium, it does appear this shit bombed.

"If we are going to foster a thriving, powerful movement equal to this dangerous moment, we must not surrender “antifa” to Trump’s whims and the worst fantasies of our opponents. The health and safety of our friends, family, and society may depend on it." theintercept.com/2025/09/27/t...

People ask what radicalized me and this is a great example! I watched Democrats do fucking NOTHING when Trump won the first time while antifascists racked up wins. Hand the party over to @aoc.bsky.social , @chrismurphyct.bsky.social, and @grahamformaine.bsky.social you cowards

Call Gavin Newsom's office like you called ABC/Disney/Sinclair/Nexstar

Whatever fun I had in dunking on Qanon folks disappeared long ago. Every Qanon adherent I interact with is some combination of achingly lonely, seriously damaged, or profoundly dissatisfied with their life.

If you read the article this was straight up a torture program that also featured a bunch of sexual assault, abuses on a level that one will day be in textbooks with the question how did it go on so long Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

@iwriteok.bsky.social Robert, I regret to inform you about Jerry Lawler…

My politics are easily summed up as “everyone should have the security and opportunities I did”. Until everyone is safe no one is safe

@lastweektonight.com @danielobrien.bsky.social I need y’all to do a bit about this because it is unhinged youtu.be/bUNVdCduGKg?...

I am preemptively exhausted by the bad faith hot takes that are coming for One Battle After Another. I thought it was beautiful and galvanizing.

Emily is one of the bravest people in social media. May we all follow her example

@bishonentype.bsky.social @miawong.bsky.social @iwriteok.bsky.social I sincerely appreciate the patience and detail y’all put into the reporting on Executive Disorder and other @coolzonemedia.bsky.social pods (also appreciate you @socialistdogmom.bsky.social and @whysophiewhy.bsky.social)

Genuinely giddy for @vincemancini.bsky.social to review #OBAA. I want to see it again but it’s up there for my favorite PTA movie.

@iwriteok.bsky.social hey Robert, one of your listeners who’s also a pro wrestling fan. Wrestling bears was not unheard of in the territory days. Bret Hart talks about “Terrible” Ted living under his porch for a while en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terribl...

@socialistdogmom.bsky.social I was listening to the latest WLG and I apologize but I have a bunch of writing nerd questions! Is it okay to ask here or should I send to the WLG gmail for a potential mailbag episode?

Personally I thought this study was a good example of the type of data bullshit you can do with charts such as is described in Calling Bullshit, combined with an uncritical approach to classification that constructs “left-wing” violence based on abstractions disconnected from actual social reality

@mgoseth.bsky.social I appreciate UFR because it gives me hard data to my frustration with Wink. Three questions though: 1. How likely is it Wink reverts to Good Wink? 2. Could Michigan move on from Wink after the season? 3. Who would be a good replacement?

new episode of kill the computer joined by @bencollins.bsky.social to talk about how the onion was set to release a jeffery epstein mockumentary in theaters, but after the charlie kirk assassination the deal was pulled due to political instability. we also chat about the current media landscape

@mgoblog.bsky.social hard agree on Nessler and Danielson. It’s why I think moving B1G to CBS and the SEC off was stupid. We had 27 years of those guys building relationships with the SEC.

@mgoblog.bsky.social @mgoseth.bsky.social I don’t know if it’s the ghost of last year, if I’m very susceptible to suggestion, or if I’m learning patience as I approach 40, but it has been a joy watching Bryce this year. I’m like a terrible parent, anything that is his fault is a learning experience

@jonathan-a-thon.bsky.social I know it seems like a small thing but I really appreciate that when discussing Israel/Palestine you talk about the Israeli government and the Netanyahu administration rather than just blaming Israel.

@mgoblog.bsky.social I saw you reference GWAR in UFR. I grew up in Richmond, VA and when I was little I’d see them walking around in full costume when I was at Hebrew school

I have been a physical media evangelist for years. This is yet another reason to buy your favorite media instead of just streaming it

Every pundit who took at face value the idea that the Right sincerely cares about free speech, or ideological diversity, or in fact has any principles at all, should be wearing a dunce cap and writing a lengthy mea culpa right now. Not for our catharsis but for public awareness at least

Censorship never stops with just one book, one newspaper, one person. The end goal of censorship is always complete control. For Christ's sake, Kimmel just showed a video of the President's own words. Stop capitulating. It will never save you in the end.

@socialistdogmom.bsky.social something I think about a lot is that George Lincoln Rockwell and L. Ron Hubbard told the same lie about their fighting in WWII (that they both sank 4 Japanese submarines)

After Trump’s FCC chair, demanded ABC take action against against Kimmel for his comments on Kirk, Nexstar, the largest operator of ABC affiliates announced it would pull Kimmel from its stations Then ABC said it was taking Kimmel off the air Nexstar is seeking FCC approval for a $6.2B merger

> @brianstelter.bsky.social

Good honest headline. Support those with backbones.

The Free Speech President has now pulled two of the three major late night hosts off the air through threats and intimidation because of their jokes. Obviously I’m behind Jimmy Kimmel 100% in the face of this fascist garbage. Speech against this admin isn’t just being chilled, they’re freezing it.

@heathercampbell.bsky.social your story about the first time you kissed a girl was when I fell in love with Get Played. It was so sweet and vulnerable that it made me a fan for life
