This is an enormous scam designed to get X’s dwindling value and collateralized debts (which likely are imperiled due to Tesla’s crashing stock price) off Musk’s personal books.

For years conservatives and some liberals complained incessantly about β€˜cancel culture’ and the lack of β€˜free speech’ on campuses. None of that stuff comes even close to what the right is now doing in power, in terms of the open bullying and pressuring of colleges and censoring of curricula.

Meanwhile over on the other place, rightwing free speech warriors (this guy is a former DeSantis campaign staffer) are calling for me to be denaturalized and deported because they don’t like my political speech. This is what fascism and racism looks like, folks.

This is exactly what I have been saying for a while now. At this point, it’s not left vs right that matters, but fighters vs non-fighters. The Dems, and the American people, need fighters.

Philippines: Duterte Arrested on ICC Warrant The arrest of former Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte and his transfer to the International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague is a historic step toward justice, Human Rights Watch said today.

The arrest of former Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte and his transfer to the International Criminal Court is a historic step toward justice.

This sends a message to human rights abusers everywhere that they could be held to account.

When you hear Trump & his supporters defend the detention of a Green Card holder by pretending to care about 1) antisemitism on campus, and 2) trespassing on college property, remember that Trump 1) hosted a Holocaust denier for dinner & 2) pardoned violent insurrectionists.

This is absolutely the idea. That he is one of the more extreme protestors at the university most centered in this convo is also part of it: people will be afraid to speak out even if they disagree with the action.

The goal is staged implementation of fascism, starting with the least desirables.

The co-president says speaking against Putin’s interests is akin to treason.

So I guess that’s where we are now.

I would also blame a cyber attack if the real problem was that I laid off most of my entire staff and let the website degrade to the point it was unusable.

Opinion | I’m 16. On Nov. 5 the Girls Cried, and the Boys Played Minecraft. On the day after the election, it seemed boys and girls woke to a new reality.

Naomi Beinart, 16: "We girls woke up to a country that would rather elect a man found liable for sexual abuse than a woman...Where the body I haven’t fully grown into may no longer be under my control. The boys, it seemed to me, just woke up on a Wednesday."
