Don’t set yourself on fire to keep someone else warm.

No one ruthless enough to parlay 3am-college-paper-on-speed writing into national gigs & affairs with powerful men is this unprepared for a fairly soft interview. This is a shitty performance by someone trying to save her book's narrative - 'Young Woman Swept Up in the Current.'

For all the Republicans waxing nostalgic about dumping the Affordable Care Act, here's a list of pre-existing conditions that got you denied coverage on the individual market *in Colorado* before the ACA:

Thank you for this. In "Book and Dagger," now in paperback, historian Elyse Grahm writes the largely untold but riveting story of how scholars, librarians, and "oddball archivists" were mobilized to defeat fascism in WWII: "The war may have been fought on battlefields, but it was won in libraries."

I don’t know how much y’all have been following the Indiana gerrymandering battle, but it has everything.

Republicans standing up for election integrity (?!?). Trump threats. Swatting. The Gov calling a 9-0 election map “fair”, and a senator who was affected by a Trump slur.

Off we go (1/7)

If it is the stance of this administration that drugs are weapons in armed conflict … shouldn’t my right to bear those arms not be infringed?

The OU incident is right wing grievance grifter theater, everyone.
And the number of academics - including *law professors* - who can't see that is embarrassing.

Since I haven’t seen anyone mention this: When the U.S. commits war crimes it puts our troops in danger also, as it gives a green light to other countries that they can do the same to us

Some valuable local reporting with national implications
🧵 Every year since Turning Point USA’s AmericaFest event in Phoenix began, there has been an afterparty hosted by the Republicans for National Renewal fascists which brings together more of the extreme right that hangs around AmFest and multiple local elected officials. This year is no different…

Yes, books (HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT in article has chapters on him), countless interviews, and a bunch of free articles; look for Kushner stuff in the Q & As sarahkendzior.substack.com

As I've been saying since 2016, Kushner was always the litmus test of whether this is an entrenched mafia state.

One hard part of the literacy problem in the United States is there are a lot of people -- some of them with college degrees and beyond -- who don't realize that they are bad at reading

I don't know how to reach those people

Happy Why Didn’t the DOJ Ever Investigate/Prosecute Jared Kushner Day to all who celebrate.

Hey @sarahkendzior.bsky.social got anything for us on this?
I’d rather question why is Kushner there and why is he laying out a vision? We did not vote him into any gov position nor the senate we voted for has approved his candidacy.

This isn’t a grey zone anymore, it’s 50 shades of grey.

We have to support candidates that can put our economy in terms like this.

This is messaging that hits locally because you can see/experience it in your day to day.
My team put together some astonishing numbers on Missouri for me today on Small Business Saturday. We’re approaching a Missouri where nearly half of us work for a Small Business. Today half of all private-sector workers (46.2%) in MO work at a small business with fewer than 50 employees. (1/3)

Thing is, we DID hear about it at his confirmation hearing.

Every single senator who voted to confirm Hegseth knew he held these views about the laws of war.

They voted to confirm him anyway.
Everyone should read this terrifying thread about Hegseth’s published views wrt war crimes. It’s pretty fucking radical …. We needed to hear about this in his confirmation hearing.
A chapter in Hegseth’s book is literally titled “More Lethality, Less Lawyers.”

It’s almost as if there were signs!

The trouble is that people, Americans, have no idea what immigration takes. "Granny did it right." Sure. She came to Ellis Island, they gave her a train ticket. It's effectively impossible to come here legally now. You can't do Ellis Island again but there has to be mutually beneficial ways.

The guy shot two random people with a gun, I don't think you can say he wasn't assimilating into our culture
Stephen Miller is now arguing that assimilation is fundamentally impossible and that certain cultures are not compatible with Western civilization
