One of the first things Facebook’s algorithm showed me today was this propaganda post by Patriot Front. It’s not just that FB is platforming fascists. They are algorithmically PROMOTING and amplifying them.

Haitians being one of the most religious & most Christian populations in the U.S.: totally irrelevant to him

Zohran up 32 points over Bibi among American Jews should scramble a lot of very dumb narratives

I haven’t heard any of the free speech tourists who hyped the bogus “Twitter Files” say a word about this bogus Stephen Miller-led lawsuit that literally censored individuals and organizations. (via @masnick.com)

I've also reached out to Fox, which appears to be the original source of this story, and haven't heard back. But even yesterday, one of their business panelists was claiming the 30% rise figure. Come to CJR Friday for the full account. 5/

As I started my reporting I reached out to the NY Post around 830 am today. To their credit, they corrected the story about 90 minutes later. nypost.com/2026/07/05/r... 4/

The Dallas Fed study didn't say that 'unauthorized immigration' caused housing prices to rise 30%, or rents to rise 20%. It said that 30% OF the rise in housing might be attributed to immigration. Same for 20% OF the rise in rents. The actual rise is small. 3/ www.dallasfed.org/~/media/docu...

The NY Post headline, which stems from an unbylines Fox piece, got picked up widely in conservative media. Trump posted it on Truth Social. On X, it got blasted out by DHS, HUD, et al. There was a problem, though. The Post/Fox story was wrong. Not a little wrong, but completely wrong. 2/

An interesting thing just happened ... and while my full account will appear in CJR Friday, I want to take note of it now. Start with this NYPost/Fox story that ran Sunday. Note the headline (including typo). Illegal immigration caused house prices to rise 30%! web.archive.org/web/20260705... 1/

new from me: the White House doesn’t want real history in the National Museum of American History. instead, engaging in toxic fandom, shaming the Smithsonian for not stanning its favs hard enough

Trump is now using his platform to attack kindergarteners because they are Muslim

Bret Weinstein of the Intellectual Dark Web (Bari Weiss praised him as one of the most important thinkers of our time) says the Patriot Front thing is a psyop. Coming soon to 60 Minutes!

The owner of X is embracing an explicitly fascist ideology which is opposed to liberalism, universal suffrage, and racial equality—and yet every Democrat in Congress and most journalists still use his website every day. It’s absolutely disgusting.

Trump is watching the Fox News feed of himself watching Fox News

40 years ago, America celebrated the Statue of Liberty’s centennial with a massively popular, star-studded, 4-day pageant that climaxed with the swearing-in of hundreds of new immigrants. Today, we’ve got Trump’s “Great American Fair” and assaults on immigration. (new @ms.now for America 250)

Happy 250th to this country, whose constitution literally says no “presents” from foreigners!

Trump's audience finally showed up to his sad little fair.

Wrote about Trump's "Great American Fair" and his administration's war on legal immigration, juxtaposed with Reagan's "Liberty Weekend" 40 years ago — which celebrated our welcoming of immigrants as a uniquely American strength. www.ms.now/opinion/amer...

Hell of a photo

Remember when this was about "economic anxiety"?

excellent

Co-founder of the Federalist calling for “sterilization of all foreign visitors prior to entry.”

there were more people in my garage watching the World Cup last weekend

Ben Shapiro’s sidekick really crushing it with the high-level discourse

So the Dems Project 2029 has... basically the same Section 230 policy the GOP had in Project 2025. Greeeeeeat work guys.

The discourse on X last week was that Elon Musk’s life is in danger because of hyperbolic social media posts.

TMZ DC with perhaps the most brutal video from Trump's Great American State Fair, showing Dr. Oz on stage bragging to Dean Cain about how big the crowd is, only for the reporter to pan around and show absolutely nobody is there. Original post: x.com/i/status/207...

Alan Dershowitz working with Clarence Thomas to undermine press freedom, and miraculously given where we are, they fail.

Trump is the Marie Antoinette of numerolgy

If we survive this, our grandchildren will ask us “Was wokeness really THAT bad?”

JD Vance made up a horrific and racist lie about a group of people, and now those people will be deported because the Supreme Court refuses to acknowledge, let along regard as disqualifying, the clear racial bias of this administration.

Beatles, Stones, Dylan, Bob Marley, Little Feat, Billy Joel, various early 60s R&B vocal groups

Idk, maybe it's just me slowly pupating into a beautiful old man butterfly, but when people say things feel "off" now, this is kinda what i'm talking about. this is just really shocking stuff, and if you said it even during the Bush II admin, you would be out of politics, out of a job, etc.

What an image

Read the damn room, Mr. Met.

Brought to you by the people who said temporary mask mandates were literally Stalin

lmfao he has no fuckin idea passports are for citizens to travel abroad. 😂

Here’s the discourse we’re missing out on by not engaging on Elon Musk’s microblog

A new granite walkway. Refinishing the wall to glue those hideous gold accents. Trump claimed he was paying for all of it. He lied. They’ve been looting the National Parks.

You know who else ruined their whole life over a reflecting pool?

CBS staff, you have one job and that is to incept Bari Weiss into believing she can win over Isaac Chotiner.

This is indistinguishable from a white nationalist tweet.

David Ellison’s daddy paid $150 million for a Substack that has this person as its star reporter

I really resent being told America is about to become a totalitarian state because a few shitposting socialists won their primaries while this guy holds more power and influence over the federal government than they ever will.

Bragging that this administration has normalized criminality is quite the flex.

Trump's failed war made Iran's rulers richer and more powerful. So, he's treating their World Cup soccer team like a national security threat.

Isn’t “Make America Great Again” a searing indictment of what America is today? Does that count as “hating America”?
