Marisa and I spoke a lot when the NYT broke about how dismayed and sad we were by the way male writers and editors we otherwise liked were excusing horrible allegations and at times being misogynistic. I did speak up vocally and often about the NYT allegations, mostly on X, and you know what?

Excited to learn about how roughing a woman up and confining her in a room that you do not allow her to leave, between bouts of voicing weird elaborate rape fantasies, is the kind of working class authenticity that the Democrats really need and a reason to like him *more* actually.

As U.S. and Israeli bombs started to fall, Trump took to social media to link the unauthorized military actions with the Big Lie. Trump posted an article asserting that “Iran tried to interfere in 2020, 2024 elections to stop Trump, and now faces renewed war with United States.”
