That’s because you have a fine moral compass and aren’t desperate to keep your “high status” job.

“Lawmakers… are outraged“ —but what now? Mutterings in the hallways of Congress are absolutely useless. Take some action. DO something!

“Let him talk!” Watch how @abdulelsayed.bsky.social handles this heckler and then think about how Trump mocked that woman’s weight as his supporters punched her in the face👇🏽 “You can pray how you pray, I’ll pray how I pray — The book that matters is the 🇺🇸 constitution.” 🔥

No question! Plus, Elon’s character is not outfitted to fook around in warfare. But, typically, he’s unaware of personal shortcomings.

SpaceX reportedly capped Starlink at 100 mph for Ukraine's military with no warning. Some narcissistic fuckwit with a rocket company now decides whether Kyiv's drones fly while Russian missiles hit the city. Sikorski asked if he's playing politics again, which answers itself.

Elon Musk has just shown why Trump and the US are now the enemy within
Trump’s moves against Ukraine – including a diesel deal with Putin and a row over restricting Starlink – mean he must now be seen as a hostile force in Europe, explains world affairs editor Sam Kiley

Look at the shabby state and increasingly authoritarian trajectory of the country and ask yourself if we can endure 2 more years of a lawless Trump administration wreaking havoc with no check from Congress, then vote accordingly. This is not the time for a protest vote or purity politics.

The world seems to know, while a large contingent of Americans don’t. They were bamboozled when Trump mockingly used, “Russia, Russia, Russia!” to wave it all away, with a magic wand. It seems to have done the trick. People shrugged and moved on. They did so at their own peril. 🪄🇷🇺🥷

Key distinction number two: journalism vs. the media (vs. the press) I think of the media as the attention business, an industry whose product is audiences. Journalism is a social practice, the purpose of which is to keep publics informed and hold power to account. 7/

Audience vs. public, cont. When people share common problems but don't realize it, they are an "inchoate" public. (John Dewey.) One reason the presidential debates used to be such a big deal is that they are one of the few occasions when the audience is the public and vice versa. 6/

LOSS: A New Jersey judge refused to block a GOP-led attempt to purge only non-Republican voters in Ocean County before the midterms. Pro-voting groups sued after 39 Bay Head residents received letters questioning their eligibility to vote, which they argued intimidated and burdened voters.
