@IamKingWilliams The AJC is the definition of legacy corporate media. They had an opinion on the hawks magic Monday but not one on the White House trying to mess with the 2020 election results right now.

Republicans control the entire government of the state of Georgia, plus the White House, Senate, House, and Supreme Court. This neutral language is only used when addressing Republicans and conservative related issues

Coincidentally Today I discovered the creator of the ZIP compression file format died due to alcohol at age 37 His death was a result of acute pancreatic bleeding caused by chronic alcoholism!

Much respect.

I won’t delete this tweet because I am a man of honor but, yes… I was wrong on the tariffs in November. He has indeed put blanket tariffs on every country. Trump 2.0 is very different.

The American right isn’t conservative any longer. They’re authoritarian. They now share more in common with Putin’s Russia and Erdoğan’s Turkey than with any past American President. Defeating the GOP is no longer a right vs. left paradigm—it’s democracy vs. autocracy.

American veteran, fired from FEMA, to WTOP: “I voted for Donald Trump. But this is not what I was expecting. We didn’t think they were going to take a chainsaw to a silk rug.” Before you react, a few points. 1/

BREAKING: Americans are now going to grocery stores and putting “Trump did that” stickers on the shelves. Trump has skyrocketed grocery prices all across the country.

@markpinc @chrisfralic @mcuban @elonmusk Hey Mark. Your response is interesting… how much time do you have to go deeper?

@chrisfralic @mcuban @elonmusk Would be great to see an actual deeper investigation into the allegations.

Anyone consider that maybe Elon’s mission, is for Elon to get what he wants, rather than the country to get what you voted for ? It’s not a shock for Elon , or anyone, to put their personal goals first Elon seems to be on a mission to protect brand Elon at all costs. No ? Free Speech is everything. Until it’s anything related to Elon. Who has complete control over speech here on X The censorship of the platform you adore is in the hands of a single person, who is on a mission to make himself the most powerful person in the world. above and beyond the President of the United States.

@cbenderatl @MidtownATL Hey Chris! Great question! I’m not here much but damn I miss your post!

@MidtownATL Totally understand, but it still seems like some coordination could and should happen. Thanks for the reply.

I appreciate everything is doing in @MidtownATL, but I am dumbfounded why the revitalization jumps around the district. Why not complete Spring Street and then start on West Peachtree, then Juniper....etc? None of the main streets are completed before you jump to another area.

Eric Raymond Gilliland was kind. And gentle. And funny as hell. And incapable of holding a conversation that was cruel or tore someone down. It’s a tragedy he’s gone and a tragedy more people won’t have the chance to know him. I had Eric as a friend for 27 years. He was the first bigtime meeting I had at the start of my career. He’d finished working as a writer on ROSEANNE and had a swank bungalow office on the Fox lot in LA. I was nervous as hell to meet him. I’d gotten into my cups the night before and the hangover wasn’t helping. My head was pounding like crazy, but it was my stomach that worried me… I had those horrible little tell-tale burps. Badness was brewing. Eric wasn’t how I imagined a seriously successful comedy writer. He was so approachable. When he smiled, his nostrils flared and his eyelids lowered by half. Imagine Pixar, but Pixar is Eric’s face. I felt like I’d known him forever. And there are hundreds, if not thousands of bartenders, cashiers and shopkeepers in dozens of countries who feel the same. I traveled all over the world with Eric. He introduced me to Vaudeville and Jack Benny and welcomed me into his friend circle of impossibly talented writers and performers. He was my university. He helped me grow and find my voice. And he did all of it while finding himself. Eric never stopped becoming Eric. He eventually moved to NYC and found a new gear. He walked everywhere. He had Swedish Glug parties. He appreciated old, forgotten things. He loved soup. Jesus Christ, the man loved soup. Go to @EricRGilliland for proof. When I walked out of that meeting at Fox all those years ago, I was struck with the undeniable urge to see him again. As soon as I’d finished violently throwing up in the rose bush outside his office, I popped back in and gave him my phone number. I also let him know that I’d recently thrown up in the rose bush outside his office. This news seemed to please him. The rose bush died but Eric lived 27 more years.

Until he turns 88 and still there because nobody can challenge him as most people worship him. We should root more for strong institutions instead of strong men as Obama once advised.

I have a feeling this meme format is going to get a lot of use over the next four years.

The way so called adults act on the political stage is so deeply troubling. He acts like Harris did something to him personally to act like this.

Nearly 1,000 rioters have pleaded guilty to criminal charges.... But the man who sat at the center of the conspiracy to overturn the election — who summoned the mob and sat by while it attacked the Capitol — emerged immune and unscathed. And in a scenario that was unthinkable the morning after the attack, the chief perpetrator of it all is about to return to the office he left in disgrace and ignominy.

As I’ve said repeatedly: Engagement in obviously antisocial behavior in public settings—like playing music on a speaker when no one asked to hear it—is often an expression of power backed by the threat of violence. The punk with the speaker is daring you to say something, and gets off on everyone’s silence insofar as it confirms his self-identity as tough guy.

“Walmart’s retreat from DEI is a lesson in what corporate social responsibility actually is: political statements designed not to offer meaningful change but to placate consumers and avoid bad press.” I wrote about the DEI recalibration for @newrepublic: newrepublic.com/article/189806…
