Style lessons from Robert Redford, one of the most stylish men in the last century. 🧵

One of these rich dudes invested in a food company with all proceeds going to kids in need. The other started Sundance Institute, boosting the lives of countless artists. Hey modern rich dudes, don't be a typical greedy AI crypto-prick, be like these two.

If we uncap the House, we'll have more moderate voices in Congress in weeks like this to lower the temperature and speak rationally to the public

Congressional apportionment has overrepresented rural America since its early days as evidenced by the 3/5ths compromise and codified by The Permanent Apportionment Act of 1929. The house needs to be enlarged to ensure fairness. www.amacad.org/ourcommonpur...

Release the Epstein Files!

Start with the best option for containing Republicans. 1) new apportionment act to increase House, ban gerrymandering and strengthen voting rights. The 2nd thing fills Dem coffers to win those seats. The 3rd ties GOP & allies into knots. The 4th expands SCOTUS because we have no Kings. [1]

This this this all day this.

Free markets, am I right?

Rock solid joke here, even if the framing is artificial.

This is excellent advice.

You’re actually not allowed to use pardons to obstruct justice, Donald. An independent DOJ would advise you not to.

"President Trump has pledged to conduct the largest mass deportation campaign in American history. Fulfilling that pledge would harm the country in many ways, including by weakening American entrepreneurship." [Jeffrey Miron and Jacob Winter, @cato.org]

I just realised something reading the news this morning. Britain's average per capital income is now at 40 600 euros per year. Which means if they rejoin the E.U they would qualify for development funds. We'd be spending the next 10 years sending money to London to rebuild from the Brexit damage.

Immigration is good actually.

Just listen to how Stephen Colbert answered this question off the cuff.

Yesterday, Trump officially shut down the 988 National Suicide Hotline’s specialized services program for LGBTQ+ youth youtu.be/8okwdAjUIAQ?...

The thing with CBS using "financial decision" is you know Trump will definitely brag that he told them to fire Colbert because he'll want everyone to know they're under his thumb now. He's not exactly big on quiet power.

“Financial decisions” here meaning that they’ll block the merger if Colbert isn’t canceled

a good arbiter of how close we are to bad hybrid regime shit is if the political comedy shows start getting pulled for whatever reason

Congrats to Stephen Colbert for never bending the knee.

Repeal the Reapportionment Act of 1929 and get the people of California and other states with large hellhole cities the equal representation we deserve. #wyomingrule

Catch up man, it was like an hour ago. By this afternoon there will be something else insane to deal with.

@padilla.senate.gov: "Imagine what they are doing to a lot of folks who may not feel free to speak up... and there's not cameras there to capture how they may or may not be treated. That's the big takeaway. This should be a wake up call for everybody across the country."

No Military Occupation Without Equal Representation This is the Senate, but the House is supposed to be where the people are represented equally and if we were there would be 17 more Representatives from California. #WyomingRule

Because duh.

In case you were wondering if the racism is the entire point or not. Well, to be fair, it’s a racism and greed combo platter. The perfect representation of MAGA.

Hey, officers 👋🏻 You’re the bad guys now. This doesn’t even have anything to do with Trump’s BS. You are defining the narrative that you’re a bunch of trigger happy dummies getting your kicks from hurting innocent people, the press, and people who have darker skin than you. Do better.

The nice thing about Trump’s Birthday Military Parade is that by next week we’ll know definitively if time travel is possible.

Texans? Protesting in solidarity with… Los Angeles?

ICE needs to get out of my state.

I will never forgive my fellow Americans who voted for this.

Canada welcomes the U.S. Court of International Trade’s decision on the United States’ tariffs. It confirmed what we’ve always held: that the American tariffs against Canadian goods are unlawful and unjustified.

Republicans changed the rules, & now practically any action the executive branch takes can be challenged in Congress. Any 30 Senators can bring up a vote, & get a guaranteed 10 hours of floor time. Meaning that Democrats could hold the floor indefinitely, if they wanted. prospect.org/politics/202...

Just call it the Self-Inflicted Wound Era, when we took a bunch of stuff that was working largely fine (vaccines, weather monitoring, friendly relations with like 175 countries, cancer research, renewable energy credits, the FAA, global trade, etc etc) and just broke them for giggles

"Nothing makes you feel more alive than registering for an account, making a password, instantly forgetting it, and repeating the whole process for every transaction."

Nobody asked them what their pronouns are, so I don’t know why they’re complaining.

We live in the dumbest of timelines.

My fellow Americans, WTF have you done?
