TPUSA is claiming victory with their fake halftime show, but it didn't break through to the mainstream
New analysis from Magnitude Media that shows out of 4,000 posts by neutral pages since 6 PM yesterday, only *50* even mentioned Kid Rock or TPUSA whatsresonating.substack.com/p/whats-reso...
If you’ve consumed even half an hour of news today, I’m gonna need you to play at least one game of Tetris.
Stay informed, but take care of yourselves, friends.
Hung a guy at Nuremburg for doing this, FYI. Not "a thing like this" but literally this, exactly.
Most notably, many left-leaning voices are meeting this moment with outrage and profanity, which is resonating with audiences. Since Wednesday, left-leaning posts that discussed the shooting and included any variation of “fuck” received nearly three times the engagement as posts that just mentioned the shooting—even after excluding posts with live footage of the incident that included profanity.
It's been a tough news week, but there's a silver lining for the Cussing Coalition*.
Today's What’s Resonating also examines which political takes are *actually* resonating in response to Renee Good's killing.

Corny cuts deeper than any other word. that's the one that is gonna keep her up at night.
This heartbreaking content is clearly striking a chord with audiences: ICE encounter videos performed better than generic immigration posts across every political lean. Left-leaning ICE encounter videos over-performed at the highest rate (2.7x average engagements) while neutral pages earned the highest total and average engagements (31 million and 36,000, respectively). Comparing performance across political lean: Left-Leaning pages: ICE encounter videos performed 164% better than other immigration videos (with over 15,000 more engagements per post) Neutral pages: ICE encounter videos performed 81% better than other immigration videos (with over 15,000 more engagements per post) Right-Leaning pages: ICE encounter videos performed 38% better than other immigration videos (with over 3,400 more engagements per post)

Kirk actually had been making this list of the top topics until yesterday. I still think he hangs in the background of right wing grievance like Benghazi did though datawrapper.dwcdn.net/aiiJD/1/?utm...

I’m on the ground at the charlie Kirk prayer vigil at the Kennedy center. There are thousands of people here.

I’m sorry, but a country album called “Snipe Hunt” is *genius.*
Shitty pontoon would be accepted and arguably preferred.
I need to become friends with someone not evil who has a boat in DC. Pls advise.
It's been a rough few years, but I truly believe this story should serve as a dire warning to *everyone.*
The Journal and Obama attacks may only be the beginning. Trump’s best hope of keeping his supporters happy may very well be increasing the scale and tempo of his authoritarian attacks — and that means there will be more to come in the months ahead. www.mediamatters.org/fox-news/tru...
What a shocker that Trump is trying to defend himself on Epstein by blaming Obama.
Based on my uniquely qualified professional opinion, I believe two facts:
@couriernewsroom.bsky.social has some of the best left-leaning social media in the game.
guest @peltzmadeline.bsky.social is one of the leading experts in the right online.
This is a no-brainer. Go listen/watch/follow!
I don't even smoke, but between this and the 7/11 influencers, Japan feels magical. hope you're enjoying your trip!
