This is the editorial view of the guy who controls which posts get shown on Vichy Twitter and which get buried. Insane that journalists continue to use it as a source of information and contribute to its legitimacy

The 1937 screwball comedy “The Awful Truth” can be enjoyed as one of the best of its type—and as a historic record of the moment a screen persona was perfected. crookedmarquee.com/classic-corn...

Everybody needs to see this quote, understand that this is what Project 2025 is about, and internalize the fact that this is what the Republican Party is doing.

This is not a conspiracy theory from the left. They are saying it out loud.

Every single political journalist should ask every single Republican politician today if they agree with the party nominee's contention that "some people need killing," and not a single fucking one of them will because the current media machine is utterly ill-equipped to deal with the threat at hand

I never thought about it, it was just kinda there: Twitter, as a fairly dependable source of breaking real-time news. Was thinking how Bluesky is not there yet, wishing it was, and realizing all over again that this is *exactly* why Elon broke the motherfucker. We could use it, but ain't have it.
