@mosseri, As I watch artists and photographers with high quality content and sometimes tens of thousands of followers get routinely less than 50 views of their work I wonder: why not sell the art part of #instagram to someone who can do it justice? You can keep the ads and reels.

@npisarenko @pennerandre @matiasdelacroix @EstebanFelix1 @APNews @AP_Sports @npisarenko I am trying to reach you about a photo. I left a message on Instagram. No way to send you a direct message here as you do not follow me. I hope you will check your Instagram!

@RepThomasMassie I appreciated your attempt to interview her today.

A funny thing about Bondi’s insults to members of Congress who had serious questions: Staff literally gave her flash cards with individualized insults, but she couldn’t memorize them, so you can see her shuffle through them to find the flash-cards-insult that matches the member.

@RepThomasMassie Why do you want fewer people to vote??? Estimates are 21million will lose the franchise.

There’s a false rumor that I voted against the Save America Act today. I’ll vote for it when it comes to the floor. I voted against a “rule” that allows it to get a vote, but the “rule” also suspends house rules and allows spending bills to come to the floor with no 24hr notice!

@RepThomasMassie Waiting for the Lincoln Project to take this idea and make it real on every billboard across America.

@TheAtlantic @TheAtlantic I am unable to link my accounts to my phone or computer and read my subscription and my subscription is on auto renew with no e mails saying it lapsed. Endless hold on phone help. No replies to email to the help desk.I even subscribed a second time,still no access.

The crash of 1929 remains the most significant—and largely misunderstood—financial disaster in modern history. And few people today “perceive the remarkable parallels between that era and today’s political and economic climate,” Andrew Ross Sorkin writes. theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…

@brianstelter CNN has paywalled almost everything—

If Trump's first term was marked by hostile anti-media rhetoric, his second term has transformed that rhetoric into an unprecedented campaign of attacks, some straight out of authoritarian countries. Here's something I wrote for World Press Freedom Day >>> cnn.com/2025/05/03/med…

So much of what the public knows about Trump's wrecking-ball approach to government stems from robust reporting, including leaks from anonymous sources. But Trump and his aides are actively trying to impede this reporting and intimidate news outlets.

Advertising at its best. Capitalism is competitive. Sometimes the brand really matters. #tesla youtube.com/watch?v=tQOvkg…

Grifter and “tech genius in chief” has a bad day as all #Tesla Cybertrucks are recalled. . . Over bad glue. And this is the guy messing with Social Security. #TeslaTakedown #Tesla #ElonMusk newrepublic.com/post/193032/te…

This is the playbook: dismantle the agency by firing what they say won’t be up to half the people, make a “less efficient“ so that people are angry at the agency and may not notice who tore it apart.

So what was that about protecting social security? You will see millions of people over 70 soon competing with the younger generations for jobs. newsweek.com/social-securit…

@amvetsupport From Fox:

To all you magas, who for ten years questioned our service because we, as veterans, despise trump, here is who he is.

@amvetsupport This is real. seattletimes.com/seattle-news/h…

404media.co/anyone-can-pus… Wait, wasn’t this all supposed to be secure, done by experts?

Voters Were Right About the Economy. The Data Was Wrong. politi.co/4hvKd7P via @politico This is an excellent piece.

This is a must-watch to understand what is happening. Now I understand why “we “would “take“ Greenland or Gaza, the future tech-elite Homeland. It predicts everything happening right now to the T. Project 2025 is not about Christianity. m.youtube.com/watch?v=5RpPTR…
