"...the president is eyeing removing Patel and is considering top FBI official Andrew Bailey as the bureau’s new director..."
Trump can install Bailey as acting FBI director without Senate confirmation after Dec 15, when he will have served 90 days in his position.
(I hoped Hegseth would go first.)

President Trump may have had enough of Kash Patel, according to sources
The president is weighing whether to oust the FBI director after scrutiny of Patel's stewardship of bureau resources, including his girlfriend’s security detail and use of a government jet.

Chat, is it a good sign when the Atlantic's Thanksgiving take is "cabbage is affordable"?
Cabbage is affordable, delicious, and astoundingly versatile, @giladedelman.bsky.social writes. The underrated crucifer “is fit for a king”:

People were gaining a language, sense of history and set of conceptual tools that delegitimised both white supremacy *and the wider systems of capitalism and colonialism-imperialism* that it's bound up with.

"My mentor always tells me, 'Kim, dogs don’t bark at parked cars." They’re coming after critical race theory, 1619, intersectionality because these ideas mobilized people. They gave them the language to actually articulate what they were seeing with their own eyes," says Kimberlé Crenshaw.

now instead of occasionally driving by shacks we drive by mansions with helipads.
People feel less wealthy now than people in the 1950s/1960s did because the material conditions of you and the people around you is roughly on par, unlike the 50s/60s when a twenty minute drive out of town might return you to the 19th Century if not further back.

i don’t understand urban NIMBYs. They don’t even have yards!
Zohran adding YIMBYs to his transition team is resulting in some absolutely incredible Left NIMBY crashouts over on Twitter. This is my favorite.

Jake Sherman added: “since this ran this morning -- 4 hours ago? -- ive gotten countless text messages from House Republicans agreeing with this sentiment.“

Well the young women will be running most things soon so hopefully this wont matter
Isolationism (yes, 'America First' ideology) is rising in gen z men, but not just amongst gen z conservatives, per @ymriofficial.bsky.social.
I've heard this over and over in my listening sessions: 'America has enough issues at home. Why focus on problems abroad?'
It's a generational shift.

Twitter pays people based on engagement (views, retweets, comments, etc). It appears that many MAGA accounts are based abroad and they use AI technology to generate low-effort rage bait.
My guess is that this will get worse as AI tech improves. For instance, fake videos of minorities doing crime.
