“Freedom is ethical - it minimizes coercion” ???? And so I’m going to coerce the OpEds to only reflect these two things. Wtf

Word of the Day is ‘quockerwodger’ (19th century): a puppet individual whose strings are pulled entirely by someone else.

Weak men cannot compromise. Weak men cannot build consensus. Weak men think that leadership means force. Weak men build nothing that lasts.
This is all a distraction for Musk gaining access to so much sensitive date.
Did Patel push him? Just curious.
Trenchant Susie Dent. Maybe America would be a better place with more precise language.
NEW: The American people are turning against Elon Musk. His approval rating has plummeted to -11 from +29 in 2016, per a new Quinnipiac poll.
53% oppose him having a key role in a Trump admin, with just 39% in support—dropping to 36% among independents.
@cnn.com Where are you?
Congressional delegation outside USAID now: “We are here to shed a light on a crime unfolding before our eyes.”
The men carrying out Musk's coup are Akash Bobba, Edward Coristine, Luke Farritor, Gautier Cole Killian, Gavin Kliger, and Ethan Shaotran.
Make them famous. And, eventually, when possible, arrest them and charge them with multiple felonies. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...
For the love of democracy, THIS is what you’re going with? Milquetoast.
Take a lesson from AOC and figure out messaging. Finger-wagging and snark is part of why we lost in 2024.
Messaging matters. Figure it out.
Some thoughts on marketing.
These are the dems that voted to confirm the guy that just handed the Treasury to Musk:
Blunt Rochester
Booker
Cantwell
Coons
Fetterman
Gallego
Gillibrand
Hassan
Hickenlooper
Kaine
Kelly
King (Independent)
Peters
Shaheen
Slotkin
Warner
Supreme Court has made it legal for Trump to commit crimes against US, but he would rather limit the amount of people who know about his crimes. The corruption, weakening of our security, end of our democracy is happening now, not being threatened in the future.
A stark reminder of the power and discipline of rightwing messaging (propaganda) and the utter weakness and ineffectiveness of liberal messaging.
More Americans now believe Trump won a bigger popular vote margin in 2024 than Biden won in 2020 (he didn’t of course).

Susie Dent is my hero.
Pete Hegseth is the most unqualified Defense Secretary nominee in US history.
-Mismanaged a veteran's nonprofit into the ground
-Reports of public intoxication at work
-Accused of rape
-Thinks women can't serve in combat
How can we trust him to protect our national security?
Love a new planner. Bring on 2025!
I am bias. No, no you’re not, but I’m biased.
Headed on a short getaway with the fam and bringing this bad boy with me. I’m glad the hubs prefers to drive so I get to read!
First Bluesky post. I guess I should make it a good one. So anyway, here’s what I’m reading.
