It’s not the planet, or even the species that are horrific. For example, Americans are alone in seeing Donald Trump as strong. Ours is a shithole nation for real

If you want to really know how the outrage machine gets fired up: 1. Schmitt plans to drop “bombshell” on Smith 2. Someone plants story that Schmitt is a Vance VP contender to run same day 3. Right-wing Twittersphere gets talking points 4. Schmitt steps in it 5. Scheduled tweets go out anyway

1. Jay Feely, a former NFL kicker and a GOP candidate for Congress in Arizona, has made “protecting women’s sports” a centerpiece of his election campaign. So I reviewed years of Feely’s podcast appearances to see what he actually thinks about female athletes. 🧵

I don't have time to write more, but ICE is working to remove people to third countries in violation of D.V.D. v. DHS. I've been up since 5:20 A.M. working with two other attorneys to prevent our client from being shipped out. If you rep someone at risk of third country removal, check on them NOW

The LSD NO-No’s origin story has its roots in high school sports. Specifically, a Sandusky, Ohio tripping pole vaulter. In this vintage WCS episode, watch Kansas City media guy and SHS track teammate Jonathan Carter process what opened me to the possibility of Dock’s feat. (Forgive the subpar audio)

Dutifully, they did.

Hey I'm not actually done talking about Dolly Parton. 🧵 Specifically I want to talk about her album 9 to 5 and Odd Jobs, released in 1980 (not the soundtrack to the film 9 to 5, that's a different thing). The whole album is about work, with most of the songs focused on a different type of worker.

I think it’s obvious that the coordinated racist attack on Arday wasn’t just an attack on every Black academic, but on every Black person worldwide. That’s the critical story—not whether he plagiarized or how many miles he ran. They hounded him into the grave to uphold the myth of white superiority.

One thing that's really evident about the pied-a-tierre tax: it was a brilliant move to call it that — everyone who argues against it sounds like they're defending tax-free caviar. Contrast to San Diego's "empty homes tax" ballot measure which lost 55-45 in a 70-30 Dem city.

One more interesting point: this spring I sat down with Sharyn Alfonsi of 60 Minutes for an extensive interview about my Epstein investigation. Subsequently, CBS pulled the segment and fired the reporter. The MAGA buyout of media has unquestionably aided the Trump administration’s cover up here.
