You would think news orgs would be cautious about leaning in to models that make up their own sources and facts and present them as truth. But 🤷♀️

Do you remember how in 2016 Clinton appeared to faint - the army of trolls went wild - and momentum shifted in the campaign? A real world action triggering an outpouring online. (You can relive the moment here.... podcasts.apple.com/a... ) Biden faces the same now.

I keep thinking about this tweet This was 32 yrs ago 32 years Today Clinton is 77, Gore 76 Trump 78. Biden 81. This is not a comment on the candidates But perhaps on our Independence Day, a reminder that we are a great nation not because we ARE a thing, but because we dare aspire to it

There are a lot of potentially end-times destructive things that people are minimizing but one that rarely gets discussed is what’s going to happen when the US military ends up being deployed in/near filtration camps.

Sometimes I’m really not sure Americans understand how far out of alignment we are with our global near-peers on most things And they watch it all on their news, which is doesn’t purposefully isolate them from the world, and they know more about it than most Americans

Un-thanks to everyone who decided the best thing to do with St3v3 Bann0n before he goes to jail for the remainder of the election is give him lots of chances to throw word grenades first. Please do not feel any need to communicate from prison on his behalf. FFS.

If you want a window into what Americans voters really have to say about themselves and the country, just search “black jobs” on any social media right now and remind yourself to stop reading the media praying to make money off controversy-engagement

Not a day since his funeral have I not wished McCain was still here. No politician is perfect. But he was a champion of so many things that matter so deeply, and he was brave enough to stand up for them, and had courage of conviction to drag many along in his wake.

We will not be a great power as we navigate this troubled century if we let Ukraine fall. Not America, NATO, or Europe.
Another set of forces for whom that value of a single human life means nothing will control the shaping of the century.

Left alone in a crucible against a dying power, Ukraine was forced to redefine what power is on its own.
Ukraine has now utterly changed how we will think of power for the remainder of the century.
The “great power” militaries are running to catch up.

Each one shows a choice to fight. Each one is a reminder of how much has been asked of Ukrainians

There are those who will tell you the fight in Ukraine is not “existential” for America or the civilized world. That we have done enough. But those people are wrong, and they do not get it. Ukraine is the greatest power of this generation.

Ukraine has transformed how we think of power. It is the greatest power of this generation.
Captain Arsen Fedosenko saw the war for what it was, knew what it was for, and knew Ukraine must win. He was a piece of great Ukrainian power.
