Yeah, I was hesitant to watch this one, but I’ll check it out.

I’ll be doing that in a couple weeks.

I hope that @delauro.house.gov is right here. I am inclined to trust her, but I hate the idea of giving them an inch. That two-week leash better be a choke chain. Cc: @jahimes.bsky.social

Duuude! I finally got around to watching this. The epilogue is fire!! 🔥 Thank you.

"When in doubt, draw a distinction."

Not sure where he got it, but in grad school one of my teachers taught me that.

This (long) thread is about the key distinctions I rely on as a critic. There's a Twitter version from 2021. This one builds on that one.

I will post them one at a time. Ready?

Long one today, Alec!

@sanders.senate.gov is lighting up the Senate!
He’s basically reading off the Thirty-seven Grievances but I’ve lost count.

@chrismurphyct.bsky.social Hold the line today. You and @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social may have to hold up @schumer.senate.gov ‘s arms like Moses in the battle with the Amakelites, but do it.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Hey, Void! I am George. Been enjoying your adventures here.
Any notable insights or a different approach now that you’ve been doing this for a few months?

I have a good story about duct taping a battery post in a Piper Arrow…

Probably won’t be available much longer.

3. You're building the foundation, not the showcase.
4. Data quality is learned through pain.
5. Presentation matters more than you think.
6. Set boundaries early.
7. Don't chase every trend.

The tools change every 5 years. The problems don't. I hope you enjoy this.

We had a nice one, too.
All the best to you!

I study fascism. I’ve already fled America. On this week’s “More To The Story,” former Yale philosophy professor Jason Stanley explains his recent move to Canada and calls the Trump administration’s takeover of the US government a “coup.”

“A coup is happening in the United States.” Jason Stanley, author of How Fascism Works, argues that President Donald Trump is leading an unlawful takeover of the US government.

From our friends at @revealnews.org:

NEWS: A day after the Minneapolis shooting, Secretary Noem quietly signed a new policy barring congressional visits to ICE facilities without a week's advance notice. That policy change led to three MN Dems being blocked from accessing an ICE facility today. www.politico.com/news/2026/01...

Jan. 6, 2021: A visual archive of the Capitol attack NPR’s Jan. 6 archive brings together reporting, video, documents and testimony to show what really happened during the Capitol riot. Explore the timeline, cases and evidence behind the attack.

NPR built a visual archive of the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol, showing exactly what happened through the lenses of the people who were there. In "Chapter 2: Stop the Steal," we look at how false claims of a stolen election mobilized Trump supporters.

Who?

The government of the United States has illegally invaded a foreign country and kidnapped its leader.

We need to all turn out in opposition to this egregious failure of our government, and stop it.

Guessing that would be Lowell Weicker. Scary how much has been forgotten (and repeated).
