I ran an experiment, simultaneously posting articles on Bluesky and X, and then testing to see how many people actually clicked and read them. The numbers on Bluesky are higher, both because the X algorithm downranks journalism, and because Bluesky attracts readers, not just shitposters.

If you were a halfway decent human being and you knew an innocent man was rotting in foreign prison—likely suffering nightmarish conditions—because your administration screwed up and send him there, you’d do something about it immediately instead of shitposting lies all day.

@davidrlurie.bsky.social on what Roberts has wrought: Trump wants the justices to endorse his campaign against the authority and independence of the judiciary, potentially turning the Court into "a shameless stooge." So much for the judicial dominance the GOP worked so ruthlessly to get.
John Roberts paved the way for Trump's return to the White House, making him a "king above the law."
The Court's majority also seems poised to endorse many of Trump's authoritarian assaults on our democracy.
But the Court could pay a high price for serving as Trump's enabler, as I discuss in PN.

John Roberts created a monster. It's about to eat him.
The Supreme Court faces an existential dilemma of its own creation.

This dude sucks.
The weeks of performative “resistance” from those in my party were limited to undignified antics.
Voting to shut the government down will punish millions or risk a recession.
I disagree with many points in the CR, but I will never vote to shut our government down.

ppl getting angry at this but he's talking alliances and he's 100% right- you cannot trust a country where every 4 yrs the foreign policy does a complete 180 & tears up treaties and reneges on deals and withholds payments because some sheep farmers in Wisconsin think too many black women have jobs
America is over. There is no coming back from this.
If we're lucky maybe we claw back some small-l liberalism for our daily lives. But even that might be too much to hope for.
The rest of the world has to move on from us.
They now know that the American people can't be trusted.
They're right.

If you lose as badly as the Dems did this year, you should lose your job. Schumer has to go - it’s time for him to retire!

Schumer to remain at the top, with Durbin as the minority whip.
Klobacher at the #3 position and Booker rounding out leadership, at the #4 spot.

It’s a battle of political leverage. Who can use tariffs, retaliatory tariffs or sanctions to create more political pain for the other leader. Forcing them to capitulate or face undesired consequences.
How crazy would it be if China, Mexico and/or Canada initiated tariffs before Trump took office

From your standpoint as a businessman and manufacturer, is there any sense behind this? Especially now that other countries are threatening tariffs of their own in retaliation. But that doesn't make sense cause it would mean raising their own taxes.
