Yes, It’s a Coup and Yes, It’s Targeting You
January 6 was nothing compared to the current mob of thugs intent on tearing apart our country’s very system of government.

I dedicated years of my life to reporting on January 6 and exposing what happened. I was there that day, co-wrote a book, and published a series of major stories on my own, for Rolling Stone, and for TPM. I hope it mattered. I hope history will remember and understand what happened.

Yep. The world is about to burn. And, snow in New Orleans is proof that hell has frozen over.

Despite patriarchy's persistence, growing numbers of men believe they have it worse off than women. And, new research shows this "male victimhood" ideology is most common among men who aren't facing hardship. Which means what they're really feeling is status loss. 1/ www.psypost.org/male-victimh...

Male victimhood ideology driven by perceived status loss, not economic hardship, among Korean men
Research published in Sex Roles suggests that male victimhood ideology among South Korean men is driven more by perceived socioeconomic status decline rather than objective economic hardship.

When the Confederacy lost the Civil War, it took control of the narrative to make its supporters seem like heroes and patriots. The January 6 coup participants did the same. There must be someone writing on this.

As we approach Jan 6, I had a discussion with officers Michael Fanone, and Harry Dunn, about that day, the conspiracies that won’t die, and the way forward. Although my audio is horrible, theirs is great. Take a listen and click to watch: adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/special-ja...

I talked to @nbedera.bsky.social about her devastating research into Title IX offices & new book On the Wrong Side: “There’s this myth men’s lives are ruined when they’re accused of sexual violence—it isn’t just untrue, it becomes justification for giving them benefits to compensate for that."

He doesn't have such clear policy ideas, and probably doesn't understand this statement. Can he even find Panama on a map?
