Count how many corporate news outlets cover this. I don't expect the MAGA "news" to mention it.

UPDATE: Alexander Smirnov, a former FBI informant who fabricated a story about President Joe Biden and his son Hunter accepting bribes that became central to Republicans’ impeachment effort, was sentenced Wednesday to six years in prison.

l'm going to say what every Musk biographer knows: he should've been deported from the US 25+ years ago and never allowed in the country again. It's not just that he's about to become an unelected President of the United States despite being ineligible for the role, it's that he _shouldn't be here_.

Clinton called SOME of the MAGAs “deplorable.” We still hear about that a decade later. Elon Musk called ALL of the MAGAs “retards and subtards.” Hard to see how the utterly cursed and nonsensical MAGA-Big Tech romance gets put back together again. I think Elon killed it dead.

Joy is the key to stopping tyranny. Joy is strength. Joy is light. Joy gives energy and clears the mind. Fear and anger demoralize and drain energy. Their behavior is predictable. This time is different. We won’t be shocked at every new low they reach. It’s predictable. Joy is the key.

Trump noms ordered by how urgent it is they be stopped: By Any Means 🟥 Patel 🟥 Kennedy Jr. 🟥 Gabbard 🟥 Hegseth 🟥 Bondi 🟥 Bhattacharya 🟥 Huckabee 🟥 Whitaker 🟥 Vought By Almost Any Means 🟧 McMahon 🟧 Blanche 🟧 Oz 🟧 Noem 🟧 Stefanik Try Hard 🟨 Wright 🟨 Zeldin 🟨 Bessent 🟨 Phelan 🟨 Greer Pass it on.

Normalize marking out trump’s face in posts if you can. We don’t need to see an evil stream every dang day. And it would be great if we could get the media to show his pic less and less too. One way to turn off the spot light.

New to our work? Back in 2021, we launched a series of stories documenting the key ways that the ultrawealthy — billionaires like Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Peter Thiel — avoid taxes. Here are 10 of their strategies 👇

propub.liTen Ways Billionaires Avoid Taxes on an Epic ScaleAfter a year of reporting on the tax machinations of the ultrawealthy, ProPublica spotlights the top tax-avoidance techniques that provide massive benefits to billionaires.

TBH I think this would make a great billboard. What do you guys think?

So now that Trump’s @manhattanda.bsky.social Manhattan DA case is paused, likely indefinitely, Trump will be the first POTUS who will be inaugurated while out on bail - not money bail- but his bail conditions remain the same…just sayin.

Linda McMahon lied about having a degree in education to serve on the Connecticut state board of education. She will head the U.S Department of Education under Trump. The narrative that Trump wants to intentionally corrode our institutions sounds about right. www.usatoday.com/story/news/e...

usatoday.comTrump's education secretary nominee once said she had an education degree. She doesn't.A questionnaire McMahon filled out to serve on a state board falsely said she had an education degree, according to a copy reviewed by USA TODAY.

May I suggest - and this would need to happen fast. Schumer presents a bill that renames every endangered program after trump. Trump ACA. Trump Dept of Ed…Trump EPA…etc…His ego would push Johnson to take it up and his ego may give them some protection when he is in office.

There but for the grace of God goes any of us who have to try to keep our jobs by paying off women to keep quiet after they report to the police that we raped them.

“Hegseth agreed to pay an undisclosed amount to the woman because he feared that revelation of the matter ‘would result in his immediate termination from Fox,’ where he worked as a host.” www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Mandate? Trump is now under 50% in the popular vote with his margin ranking 44th out of 51 elections since 1824. 4 Democrats won Senate seats in states Trump carried—compared to zero in 16 and 20. GOP poised for its smallest House majority since the U.S. had 50 states. - CNN’s Harry Enten reports

Ahoy! Help spread word that I'm here, please. I'm president of Media Matters (@mmfa.bsky.social). X is currently suing me and colleague personally as well as Media Matters. Been sorely missing the community Twitter once offered me. Hoping Bluesky can help fill that void. It's much needed.

I feel like—ten years into the Trump era—journalists should have better language for what is happening that goes beyond verbs like shocking, upending, overturning, frustrating... Every educated person understands Donald Trump is at war with the United States itself. He's doing violence to America.

nytimes.comTrump Signals a ‘Seismic Shift,’ Shocking the Washington EstablishmentThe president-elect’s early transition moves amount to a generational test of a system as he seeks to rewrite the balance of power and install lieutenants to blow up key parts of government.

I’m on the ACA. Trying to think how to save it. What if we rename it “Tr*mp concepts healthcare” for a couple years? Awful but would keep people from dying or bankrupting themselves. Change it back when we can vote again. Would that appease/assuage his personality disorder ego?

Take a wild guess who appointed that judge. That’s right — Donald Trump. Thanks to him, 4 million people will no longer get a raise. It’s far from the first time he’s cheated working class people out of their money, and it certainly won’t be the last.
