People are furiously going through old tweets to look for signs and I apologize for this but if I saw it I think you should too.
A tweet from Olivia Nuzzi November 2022: Obsessed with him tbh Quote tweet from Alex Sherman: “They are very much not” - SBF’s answer when @andrewrsorkin asks him if his lawyers are saying it’s a good idea to talk to him.

Saying out loud that they would rather vote for a pedophile than a Democrat.
A tweet from earlier today from Bret Weinstein in dark mode. I don’t regret voting for Trump because the alternative was unthinkable. But WOW am I disappointed.

I was at a used bookstore and I bought this book only because of the cover. I was not disappointed.
A paperback book cover in the style of the 1980s. At the top in yellow letters with red border in all caps "RENEGADE'S HONOR". Below the tile is a white spaceship with a u shaped hull and a large ventral fin. Taking up the rest of the cover is a man wearing blue and white body armor. In his right hand is a laser blaster and in his left is a section of chain. He has a beautiful mullet and he is grimacing.

They go way back. From David Brock:
Another compatriot was George Conway (now Kellyanne's husband), who led a secretive group of right-wing lawyers — we called them "the elves" — who worked behind the scenes directing the litigation team of Paula Jones, who had sued Clinton for sexual harassment. I knew then that information was flowing quietly from the Jones team via Conway to Starr's office — and also that Conway's go-to man was none other than Brett Kavanaugh.

What other articles has this Jacob Bernstein guy written...

Won't someone think of the guy who was paid to run PR for a convicted sex offender?

This primary care doctor who goes by rxforliberty has 350k instagram followers. 2 Months ago he posted about Fluzone but what he doesn't know is that quadrivalent fluzone has not been given since the 23-24 season.

And none of his followers corrected him. It's just an endless cycle of stupidity.
A white man in black scrubs with the IG handle rxforliberty. He has spiky grey hair and some stubble. He is holding a printed copy of the package insert for Fluzone from 2 years ago. At the top in red sharpie he has written Sanofi Pasteur and has circled "Fluzone Quadrivalent" in the same red pen. If you look closely the version of the package insert that he ahs printed out is from 2 years ago.

Something like a reptile heat rock only uses like 10 watts and would be unlikely to start a fire. We used one when we had an outdoor cat show up at our old house.

19 years of practice, literally thousands of vaccines given. One case of Guillain-Barre when I was a resident and it was related to enterovirus.

Interesting that all the bad people are talking about this very rare condition at the same time - almost like they are coordinating somehow. 🤔
Two tweets: A Midwestern Doctor 1. @MidwesternDoc 22h I have been shocked by how many people I've met who developed GBS from a flu shot or COVID vaccine and am almost certain it's much more common than one in a million injections. 2.

Since Fluview is still AFK, here is the latest flu data from HealthtrackRX, A private testing lab that processes samples from hospitals and clinics. The data is not as robust as Fluview but still helpful.

Congratulations Washington, coming in 1st place at 6.5% test positivity.
