When Ukraine destroys Russian data centers, hoards of aggressive right-wing bots disappear & the internet becomes friendlier. So much of politics is driven by the internet & so much of the internet is driven by Russians who want to hurt us. Shouldn’t we do something about that, given that we know it

Jim Stewartson: This is severe psychosis. He exists in an alternate reality constructed by his own grandiose delusions. This separate world is protected by people who use him for their own purposes, and by people like Natalie Harp who guard him from narcissistic injury.

He is not in this world.

I took my son for a walk this morning. Beautiful, peaceful, safe. In Ukraine, parents have to worry about Russian drones targeting their children The only difference between us is where we were born. We should be helping Ukraine defeat Putin. Instead, Trump is giving Russia another lifeline.

MAGA is OBSESSED with presidents who are crooks. They elected Trump twice and now they're spending tax dollars to rewrite RICHARD NIXON'S legacy. They're revisiting Watergate because it's the only time that a president's party has told him to stand down. And that's something they're incapable of.

You can't get anyone in political media to say it plainly, but GOP strategy for several decades now has been built around the fact that its core goals/policies are *wildly unpopular*. Everything depends on a) polluting the information environment, b) cementing unfair structural advantages, & c) $$$.
