My former employer, the Chicago Tribune, was mocked recently for an editorial saying we should be "happy" the Vances are expecting a baby. This thread recalls odd Tribune editorials of the past – praise for Mussolini, opposition to Black voting, a denunciation of 21-year-old Hillary Clinton. 1/14🧵🧵🧵

Just a couple weeks ago, Stephen Miller tweeted that it was wrong for Western nations to "import failed-state labor with full political rights: welfare, voting, and citizenship for the migrants and their families." Now Trump is welcoming white South Africans as refugees. The key word is "white."

This refugee wanted liberty in America, but got death The refuge promised when Nurul Amin Shah Alam and family came to America on Christmas Eve 2024 became a Kafkaesque nightmare - a police encounter gone wrong, then left for dead by Trump's CBP goons My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/alam...

When I wrote this piece last year about Jake Tapper, I speculated that he’d end up at Fox. Instead it now looks like CNN will become another Fox and Tapper can just sit tight.

Overthrow the Epstein Class

Overthrow the Epstein Class

JD Vance would never lie to us, right? Just ask the cats and dogs of Springfield, Ohio.

Congressional Republicans don’t care what Trump is hiding in the Epstein files. Nor are they curious about why we’re about to go to war with Iran. When you’re focused on your own money and power, there’s no time to worry about trivia like the rape of children or the death of people far away.

it's the same thing everywhere. "if i don't win, the election wasn't legitimate."

Hillary Clinton: "It then got quite unusual because I started being asked about UFOs and Pizzagate"

"But Anthropic, so far, has refused to back down from its two current red lines: no mass surveillance of Americans, and no lethal autonomous weapons (or weapons with license to kill targets with no human oversight whatsoever)," writes Hayden Field. #AI

We’re not chasing anything. We’re letting it come to us.

Speak Truth to Power The GOP and MAGA have become so badly corrupted, every single one of them is complicit in enabling and protecting a global pedophilia trafficking ring from naming names.

Weird they dragged in Hillary Clinton when there's another First Lady right there in the White House who actually knew Jeffrey Epstein.

Melania Trump knew Jeffrey Epstein better than Hillary Clinton did. When will she be deposed?

Clinton: It then got at the end quite unusual because I started being asked about UFOs and a series of questions about Pizzagate. One of the most vile bogus conspiracy theories that was propagated on the internet.

Oh cool. The justice department is investigating itself. I’m sure this will be really thorough.

James Comer wants transparency! Just not the kind that includes the current president or lets the public see anything beyond curated GOP talking points. newrepublic.com/post/206253/...

Not Lauren Boebert leaking photos from inside the hearing… And when will Republicans learn that Hillary is not to be played with? 🔥 Watch till the end…

the party that wants to require ID to vote abruptly invalidating a thousand people’s IDs overnight seems like a pretty giant flashing red light

Breaking on MS NOW: @alivitali.bsky.social reports the Hillary Clinton deposition has resumed, but that Clinton is asking press be allowed into the room for the rest of the deposition. Comer said NO — despite Lauren Boebert taking photos of Clinton and giving them to a far-right activist.

Tax billionaires out of existence.

I do not often directly talk issues, I prefer to use fun pictures, but I do not think I could make a fun picture about this because this is not a fun thing. "Hey we know you followed all the proper laws and everything, but now we're going to punish you for it." www.reuters.com/legal/govern...

Overthrow the Epstein Class

Here’s a thought for James Comer. There IS a First Lady who has had a relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. And it’s not Hillary Clinton. It might be worthwhile for Comer to subpoena the First Lady who actually knows Epstein. You know, just to see what she knows.

Hillary Clinton: “You have held zero public hearings, refused to allow the media to attend them, including today, despite espousing the need for transparency on dozens of occasions. You have made little effort to call the people who show up most prominently in the Epstein files.“

Friends — I’m very short. At my zenith I was 4 feet, 11 inches. From time to time, worried parents of abnormally short children phone or email me seeking reassurance. Here's what I tell them. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/heightism
