Polymarket offered me enough money to pay my rent for ten months for one post in my newsletter and I turned it down because I enjoy being able to sleep at night.
All the prepper, NRA, anti-government conservatives who once said they'd water the ground with the blood of tyrants over stuff like this will now readily gobble it up and ask for more
Yeah, I just looked, and it says "paid partnership" at the bottom of that post. If Democrats take the House and/or Senate, they should subpoena these people immediately
Elon has been pushing this hard.
Ring ring: it's @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social and me reminding you that early voting begins this Saturday!
There’s a post going around about reading books. I would like to contribute this: if you get a Kobo e-reader you can connect it directly to your library cards and borrow books directly from the device. I read 1-2 books a week. Absolutely saving my mental health. 10/10 recommend.

I grew up in Northern Ireland during the conflict. I was nearly murdered once and hospitalised twice. I covered the Troubles as a reporter. Be in no doubt: this is frightening & real. Violence in Northern Ireland is of a type that folk in England, Scotland and Wales don’t understand. This scares me.

SHAMEFUL: Republicans in Congress just passed $70 BILLION DOLLARS for ICE to continue its campaign of terror with no accountability or reforms.

Abolish ICE.
Reunite families.
End qualified immunity.
Close the inhumane detention camps.
