Jay Smooth @jsmooth.bsky.social · 15/11/2025I mean Epstein as self-appointed arbiter of who's sexist or not is too rich for me to even take a bite of, off rip 0111
Jay Smooth @jsmooth.bsky.social · 15/11/2025"Come on guys don't be goofyy, he's not a bigot he's just cynically promoting bigotry for his own personal gain!" 2402
Jay Smooth @jsmooth.bsky.social · 15/11/2025Here's Epstein explaining, with the sort of warped amoral logic I'm sure is common in these rooms, that Trump only SAYS racist and sexist things to manipulate racist and sexist voters into supporting him. Which of course, in their world, that doesn't actually count as being racist or sexist. 24510
Jay Smooth @jsmooth.bsky.social · 15/11/2025Looking the through the whole trove of Epstein emails, beyond the most newsworthy bits there's also lots of interesting (i.e. repulsive) insights into how these super-elites move and think. 1515
Jay Smooth @jsmooth.bsky.social · 06/11/2025"I can't believe people are still talking about that guy who just passed out over there. I like guys who don't pass out. I've never passed out. Everyone will tell you this. So what were we talking about? Oh yeah magnets. Did you know magnets can't get wet." 1488

Reposted by Jay SmoothBoo!-per Lund @cooperlund.online · 05/07/2025I think it’s worth being explicit about what’s going on with the Zohran admissions stuff - this is a bad faith attack designed to try to drive the older Black voters that made up Cuomo’s base in the primary and who vote party line in the general to support Eric Adams to keep Mamdani out of City Hall 122718487
Jay Smooth @jsmooth.bsky.social · 05/07/2025This implies that if Mamdani had simply refused to comment, the NYT would not have deemed the piece newsworthy. I'll leave it to you to decide whether that is plausible. 🤷🏻♀️ 4532

Jay Smooth @jsmooth.bsky.social · 04/04/2025I don't even know how to articulate how clueless this is. It's like if someone at the Bulwark was told that Andrew Tate is a Democrat, saw that Tate gets lots of views and said "hey this could be our guy!" with no further research 0110
Jay Smooth @jsmooth.bsky.social · 04/04/2025E V E R. I 100% think Adam or his people pitched this to one of those never-trumper rubes and they got rainmade. 1100
Jay Smooth @jsmooth.bsky.social · 04/04/2025Under no circumstances will I "hand it to" Adam 16, but assuming he's the one who pitched this story, this is the wildest bamboozlement of a writer since that "fake grunge slang" piece in 1992 3644

It’s a lengthy read, trying to respond to a lot of questions I’ve gotten over the past three weeks, but it’s about democracy so I decided it was worth it to lay out in depth, with examples, what I’ve been talking about here and elsewhere.lawdork.comDon't let Donald Trump and Elon Musk talk us out of democracyTrump and Musk are testing the limits, trying to sell America on being an authoritarian state — but they can’t do it unless we allow them to do so. 842002762

Jay Smooth @jsmooth.bsky.social · 31/01/2025Yeah the sections of the interview about "I felt like we have to be loyal to our guy" based on his past track record were maybe the most exasperating to me. How do y'all tell us "democracy's at stake and fascism's at the gates" and then put concerns like that over making sure you stop all that?? 020
Jay Smooth @jsmooth.bsky.social · 31/01/2025Note: in the full exchange he's referring to his thought process at the time, not necessarily his POV now, but I didn't really find it any less exasperating in that context.. apnews.com/article/jaim...apnews.comThe DNC's outgoing chair says Democrats should have stuck with Joe Biden in 2024The departing leader of the Democratic National Committee is reflecting on why his party lost to Donald Trump. 090
Jay Smooth @jsmooth.bsky.social · 31/01/2025This is getting attention for what's in the headline, understandably, but the second screenshot feels equally notable--and galling--because 1.
