Stop calling Trump’s nominees “loyalists.” They are henchmen.

You decide whose description of Kash Patel is most accurate:

NYT: "firebrand loyalist."
WSJ: "loyalist."
WaPo: "staunch defender."
AP: "steadfast Trump ally."
Me: "Trump henchman."

One of the things that I think Nicole and Seth are getting at -- which is a question scholars of the right need to explore further -- is the role mainstream media and political institutions have played in legitimating the far right and rehabilitating the reputations of formerly "extreme" figures.
One of the points I stressed in Partisans is how vital non-conservative media were to laundering right-wing commentators’ views: James Kilpatrick on 60 Minutes, Pat Buchanan on CNN/PBS/MSNBC, Tucker Carlson on CNN/MSNBC, Glenn Beck on CNN. Right-wing media matter, but aren’t the whole story.
In 1992 conservative columnist Charles Krauthammer described his fellow conservative, Pat Buchanan a "fascist." William F. Buckley criticized Pat for his antisemitism in that same year. And yet for decades right wing populist Pat got primo television gigs representing "the conservative viewpoint."

As someone whose family had to take advantage of charities during the holidays several times growing up: here's my yearly reminder to folks that while donating toys for little kids is fun, please consider donating items for tweens/teens too, because they get WAY less items for them donated. 🧵⤵️

We should acknowledge that MAGA and Trump’s victory were enabled by internet platforms whose business models reward fear and outrage. Dems had 8 yrs after FB enabled Trump and never had a floor vote in either chamber on a single bill that could possibly have addressed the harms. 🧵1/x

New thread of recommended moderation lists that I have used and tested extensively. These are primarily aimed at leftist fannish types or artists who want to avoid ai, transphobes, rightwing, and people who are either hostile towards or stated they don't want to see controversial or nsfw themes. 🧵

Bluesky is funny because I can’t recall any other platform where its growth is explicitly tied to the collective hate for one person.
