Here’s a πŸ”₯πŸ”₯exchange between me and Mick Mulvaney during @mehdirhasan.bsky.social's brilliant interview of Mulvaney on Al Jazeera's Head to Head. The whole episode is worth a watch, and you can find it on @aljazeera.com's YouTube channel.

Cognitive dissonance can be very hard to live with. . And DENIAL is more than just a river in Egypt!

Quick action by 1 Texas summer camp led to timely evacuations ahead of deadly flood Despite an absence of warning by local authorities, camp officials acted quickly on their own.

And... more information is released.

Could the TX tragedy have been avoided? Yes.

"BUT HOW?" You ask?

By having ONE staff member monitor NWS alerts through the night.

Like this one did.

Wait, so Ted Cruz sent this message while on vacation in Greece, and instead of immediately returning to Texas the next day to oversee rescue efforts amid the rising death toll, he toured the Parthenon.

I was right he phoned it in.

I was quoted in @bostonglobe.com based on my BlueSky comments from yesterday.

The current presidential administration is slowly strangling one of our country's great export industries (higher ed).

Yet another holiday weekend of deadly gun violence in America. This is not inevitableβ€”it’s a choice made by the inaction of our lawmakers and the greed of the gun industry. We should not be forced to accept this amount of suffering in exchange for unfettered access to guns.

Camp Counselors Say They Wrote Girls’ Names on Their Bodies in Case They Were Swept Away by Texas Floodwaters Two camp counselors say they wrote girls’ names on their bodies in case they were swept away by floodwaters during the Texas flood disaster.

HEROES. Camp counselors Silvana Garza and Maria Paula saved 20 girls from drowning. MSM isn’t covering this story. Why? We know why #CampMystic

MAGA World’s Mega Meltdown Over Latest Epstein Flop The online right wants the attorney general fired after being told that the disgraced sex trafficker did not, in fact, have a client list.

Beyond anything specifically to do with Epstein, the episode shows the serious bind the administration finds itself in after promising to uncover evidence of conspiracy theories that, apparently, just don’t exist. @willsommer.bsky.social on MAGA's Epstein meltdown: www.thebulwark.com/p/maga-world...

A gentle reminder that the VA getting rid of 30,000 people instead of 80,000 people isn’t a win.

The Bill Moyers that obituaries missed The β€œsecular preacher” of TV journalism was also a ferocious critic of corrupt politicians and corporate titansβ€”and the spineless media that enable them.

it's amusing to me to see Trumpers banging on about Bondi orchestrating an Epstein coverup while refusing to devote an extra thought to who she would be trying to protect
