Bra episode av MAGAWATCH fra @eivindtraedal.bsky.social og @vegastenold.bsky.social, som vanlig. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ilca...

@jeanguerre.bsky.social Hey, Jean. Any way I can DM you for a podcast interview?

Go get you a copy of @michaelehayden.bsky.social new book Strange People on the Hill. Thank me later, or even better, thank him. What a read!

Ny episode fra @eivindtraedal.bsky.social og meg! Her er det enormt mye rart!

Aldri har vi hatt så mye stoff å nå over i en episode av MAGAwatch. Jeg og Vegard snakker om Iran, paven, blasfemi, lego-propaganda og wrestling i ukas MAGAwatch. Og vi forsøker å finne ut om vår MAGA-venn Jason snart har fått nok av kaoset! open.spotify.com/episode/6Zhj...

Captain on the speakers before takeoff: "Plane suddenly decided not to work. Weird. But it works now so we should be on our way in a minute or two."

Hey, @sarahposner.bsky.social ! I've been trying to reach out to you.

More delightful nonsense from Krishna and I! This time with special guest Alzo Slade! www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZnsH...

The craziest thing happened! Ye just released a new album and took the cover art from a piece me and my friend Peter van Agtmael did for a Norwegian magazine back in 2015. Nope, he didn't ask first.

Maybe the state of protest isn't as bleak as I thought, but it's clear that the nature of protest has to change as Trump ignores First Amendment rights.

This is terrifying and should be seen alongside the CBS settlement, Gawker, the efforts to overturn Sullivan--billionaires putting their boot on the throat of free speech. This is the actual cancel culture.

“So, let’s get this party started, Terrorbros.”

After chatting with @michaelehayden.bsky.social and @jaredlholt.bsky.social on their podcast, I've been thinking about what the regime's crackdown on activists means for the future of protest in America. New substack! Subscribe and share!

the funniest thing about JFK assassination theories is that conspiracists accidentally discovered a seedy nexus of intelligence agencies, organized crime, and political extremists and then judged it irrelevant because it didn't provide proof of what they were originally looking for

This is so so wild. Mercola is the OG of online health misinfo sitting on a $300 mil enterprise. And these tapes where he confers with an alien spirit on every decision from what gasses he inserts into his bum, to firing executives, to feeding his dog his own blood—shows he’s a true believer.

Remember “the #Resistance”?! I did a deep dive into 2017-2020 internet, the rise of the movement, its major figures, the resistance’s ultimate downfall, and why it crumbled. youtu.be/mz3Rf820ozE

Next episode is a doozy! Chatted with @thesparrowproject.bsky.social about the arrest of Mahmoud Khalil, the regime's crackdown on dissent, and Andy's own arrest for non-violent activism. Episode drops tomorrow! Subscribe at whathappensinvegas.substack.com to get it right in your inbox!

Like a goddammed idiot I've been doomscrolling here, and all the dystopia is a little overwhelming. Any good news out there? What do you folx do to feel happy these days?

On the newest podcast episode, you’ll hear us speak with @vegastenold.bsky.social about the unholy political alliances that the ADL is attempting to form with the Trump administration. Bleak stuff podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s...

Talking to @jaredlholt.bsky.social and @michaelehayden.bsky.social about the ADL abandoning any pretense of being a civil rights organization.

Ep 10, featuring a chat with @vegastenold.bsky.social The ADL goes MAGA postthroughit.substack.com/p/010-the-ad...

Friendly reminder that everything you do online is being monitored and could be used against you. Focus on real world communities, real world solidarity, real world friendships.

I got to be there when the Posting Through It podcast hit double digits! Shame the topic is such a bummer, but a spoonful of @michaelehayden.bsky.social and @jaredlholt.bsky.social makes the medicine go down a treat!

This is an absolute masterclass in how to interview people in power.

A few words on journalism, risk and what I actually said.

Great. Columbia J-school students from abroad are being told to obey in advance by their dean. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/12/n...

“Throughout the work on the list, I was encouraged to look for cases of extremism coming from the left. It was even explicitly suggested that congresswomen AOC, Ilhan Omar, or Rashida Tlaib would be good places to start.”

Vegas Tenold (@vegastenold.bsky.social) : I’ve realized that what I’ve really been covering is American loneliness .... to say that loneliness has gotten us into a pretty bad spot. Let's figure out loneliness before it breaks the world. whathappensinvegas.substack.com/p/lets-figur...

To my delight I just found Vegas on BlueSky. You should definitely follow him and read this article about the ADL. It's enlightening, although unsurprising.

The ADL threw its support behind Trump's arrest of Mahmoud Khalil. I know a little bit about the ADL because I used to work there, so I wrote about the civil rights org that doesn't care about civil rights.

“If organs of state security & petty demagogues & mob leaders are acting in concert to crack down on dissent it is clearly and unequivocally fascist.” - @lioneltrolling.bsky.social www.unpopularfront.news/p/the-abduct...

Kidnapping students for thought crimes is not something democracies do. zeteo.com/p/breaking-d...

As a professor & a Jew I’m sick to my heart about the attack on Columbia—which is a) escalation of the war on all of higher ed; b) Jew-washing fascism, with the intention of inciting more antisemitism, which in turn will be used as cover for more fascism.

Trump and Musk have been making totally unfounded claims that the gold in Fort Knox is gone, but they should definitely do down and check and spend a long time doing it. @annamerlan.bsky.social

I talked to my friend Vegas about the worlds we cover for his new podcast. I look insane in the video so don’t watch that but do like and subscribe without looking right at it okay

@annamerlan.bsky.social and I chat about the stickiness of lies, the challenge of countering them, and the allure of extremism and conspiracy theories. Check out the full episode here! whathappensinvegas.substack.com/p/disinforma...
