The Dems need to commit to clawing back corrupt gains by Trump, his family, friends and supporters.
I've concluded that there are a lot of people on Bluesky who value a specific form of purity more than they value ending Trumpism.
Poor baby!
I won't attend for the same reason that I would not attend a conference about the Holocaust where Holocaust deniers were invited speakers.
Hey @postopinions.bsky.social, are you OK with this?
Vance learned about Catholicism from Peter Thiel and the tech bros.
Maybe that was the security concern Erika mentioned.
I'm in Milano and was surprised by the number of small cars, bikes and scooters in Milan. Although northern Italy has a long way to go if they want to reduce the level of air polution.
I understand why you’re concerned, but why do you think Platner is MAGA?
The White House Correspondents' Dinner later this month – with Trump as guest of honor – is shaping up as an embarrassing surrender to a criminal president who is trying to destroy the free press.
Cancel the damn dinner.
My Stop the Presses newsletter.
What an idiotic framing of Trump’s corruption. PBS is so afraid of telling the truth when it can be take ln as one sided.
Has Vance ever told Peter Thiel to stay out of politics? Has he every criticized Thiel, Musk or any of the other Tech Oligarchs?
@pbsnews.org is way too afraid of taking sides.
Malls? I don’t think Malls were built so kids could hang out at the food courts and get away from adults.
I was thinking this morning how both Margaret Thatcher and Ronald Reagan would have been delighted to see a Westward-looking, centre-right party defeat a pro-Russian autocrat in a former Eastern Bloc country.
I avoided optimism for a long time. I didn’t want to believe in false hope about the election. But last night something broke — and I almost cried. Sixteen years of weight lifted at once. It feels like a celebration. And knowing that young voters made the difference? That means there is hope. 3/1
Could we do a Truman Show situation where we build a fake Oval Office where he watches AI created fake news about himself and let him believe he's still president and tweet the hours away and meanwhile we can impeach him and move on...I'm not sure he'd know the difference
The difference is, Meloni is smart enough to adapt.
@fieldsmeyer.com on why it's important to follow the global democracy movement as closely as you follow your favorite sports team. An inspiring thread.
🧵 I’m starting a thread of news stories re: the response of other nations to the oil/gas shocks created by our war with Iran. Please add more!
1) France: No gas boilers in new buildings after 2027; 2 of 3 cars to be EV by 2030; doubling funds for electrification.

"It could be that he has made a career of transparent insincerity. It could be that he is a protege of evil oligarch Peter Thiel. It could be his beard. It could be the feeling he communicates every time he opens his mouth. It could be the most punchable nose in the long history of punchable noses."
Having Jay on this panel is like having a panel on truth and evidence in investigative reporting, and then inviting Alex Jones as a speaker. I'm all for dialogue, but some people have shown, repeatedly, that they are not interested in truth and are in it for political vengeance...
I'd rather get poked in the eye with a sharp stick
Not once in this story does @politico.com mention that US factories employ ~89,000 fewer employees than a year ago.

I've often wondered what it is in his background that allows Vance to lie so shamelessly.
You gotta love the fact that they put the buttons in the armrest, maximizing that odds of accidentally raising the volume just as you're dozing off.
Vance’s actual position on the war is clear: Whatever helps me become president is what I believe in.
You mean "what I currently believe in"
This isn't a law of physics. AI could very well reduce employment and greatly increase inequality.
