Some news: tomorrow at 9am, Ted Koppel + CBS Sunday Morning will air a two-part story on the devastating surge of full-time workers being pushed into homelessness. I'll be interviewed along with two families from There Is No Place for Us. It would mean a lot if you'd watch and help spread the word.

These fucking people... Democracy will be murdered by American media, not Trump.

This article by @sabrinamalhi.bsky.social should make your blood boil - but not for the reason you might think. It's not a sincere journalistic effort to raise awareness of the importance of vaccines, rather, it's an attempt to scare the living shit out 1/ www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...

1/ OK, Democratic members of Congress in the US Senate. It’s time for some tough love. I am aware your pollsters and consultants tell you things like “the American people want us to work together” and “ focus on prescription drug prices in the economy.”

I’m going to put my rich guy hat on and say I hope that Mexico and Canada issue equal, retaliatory tariffs and stick to them for an extended period. I apologize to all the people it will cost money and the businesses it will hurt. But it’s the only way for tariffs to be seen for what they are

This Hannah Arendt quote feels appropriate right now "Totalitarianism in power invariably replaces all first-rate talents, regardless of their sympathies, with those crackpots and fools whose lack of intelligence and creativity is still the best guarantee of their loyalty."

Instead of reading Politico, did you know you can just smash your forehead with a hammer?

It's for both self-preservation and clout. And he's going to get neither. www.cnn.com/2025/01/16/b...

All that goddam money and the RSVP is a gmail account? 🤡🤡🤡

Larry Ellison has a gold medal in sucking up to Trump. WSJ reports his multiple homes in Malibu may have been destroyed. I wonder how he feels about the party that he funds now refusing to assist wildfire efforts because the state leans Democrat.

The @rollingstone.com politics team did a deep dive for the print magazine on what went wrong for the Harris campaign this year — zeroing in on how Dems do and do not talk to people. From @tessastuart.bsky.social @swin24.bsky.social and me www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

There awaits a fascinating psychological study into why #techbros are so goddam whiny. All they cry about is "how dare nobody worship me." What the hell is going on here? All the money, toys, ketamine and god knows what else in the world, and they all just sulk around bitching about other people.

Any day that $TSLA is -6% is a good day for humanity

I asked ChatGPT to summarize Chief Justice John Roberts' new annual report. The response: "Take a big step back and FUCK YOURSELF in the face."

That the lead story on @cnn.com is a whimsical musing about Trump conquering Canada tells you what a shitshow of media coverage we are in for through 2029

My favorite scene in Goodfellas is when the U.S. Attorney and his staff decide not to prosecute Paulie Cicero and instead each donate $1 million to his cab stand

Assad did the dictator equivalent of "hey kids just going out to get some milk, will be right back..." www.reuters.com/world/middle...

Have come to realize that Susan Collins is all about Susan Collins. She just wants attention, simple as that. The whole "I have concerns" trope, or the laughable idea that she's a serious policymaker -- it's all garbage. She just likes seeing her name in headlines. www.nytimes.com/live/2024/12...

@kenwhite.bsky.social (serious question alert) why are abortion bans not a 5th/14th DP violation? The fact a woman can die because of purposely built legal doom loop of executive and state med board (in)action, and vague professional guidance to doctors, telling her "go to court" seems impossible?

This. Fucking. Headline. A wistful sentiment for a group of bloodthirsty terrorists. Thanks NYT. www.nytimes.com/2024/11/28/u...

Gee that's interesting, I've been reliably told by numerous Republican Putin fanboys that Biden's been giving Ukraine a blank check www.wsj.com/politics/nat...

@nytpitchbot.bsky.social stand down my friend, the Washington Post has done your work for the day

A few things our incoming NATO Ambassador Matt Whitaker has worked on before -- this is all true: (1) a toilet for men with large reproductive organs www.vanityfair.com/news/2018/11...
