This is unfortunate, but inevitable.
Today Donald Trump will have to sit in court and listen to prosecutors detail the 13 instances of uncharged misconduct they intend to cross-examine him on if he decides to testify. I’m sure Trump will take it well.
Republicans have now failed in all of their idiotic impeachment stunts, and after almost 2 years in power, they have nothing to show for it -- NOTHING -- except this BRILLIANT pro-Biden video. Share it with your friends... and at least one MAGA. 😏
Oh nothing, it's just Trump blatantly ADMITTING the exact allegations against him in his New York election interference criminal trial. WOW, the prosecution should play this video in their opening statement.
I've met Jon Meachum, he's very impartial and intelligent. Everyone should read his books and listen to his take on Trump.

Trump had the worst week of his campaign — and it was all his own doing. @FPWellman and @natsechobbyist discuss Trump’s horrific “announcement” that solidified a backlash from which he may never recover. youtu.be/7e7CQ29FJ_U

On March 7, President Biden will deliver his third State of the Union Address – to report on the progress we’ve made together over the last three years and the work that lies ahead.
Today is March 6th. I lost my youngest son 4 years ago today to Covid. I will never forgive DJT and his enablers for his lies, hubris, and stupidity. We CAN NOT have 4 more years of that monster.

It's now the largest fire in Texas history. Biden has sent federal help and indicated FEMA will reimburse TX (and OK) for costs. Joe did this without any negativity towards state whose leaders fight him at every turn. Why isn't media covering this? apnews.com/article/texas-…
Greg Abbott is a failure. Has the Texas Guard playing make believe photo op at the border when we need them in the panhandle. Joe Biden has to swoop in and save the day and my POS Governor will not have the balls to say thank you.

P.S. The single best, most perceptive commentary I’ve ever read that perfectly *nails* all of the psychological angst and resentment at the heart of Musk’s purchase — and in the hearts of his fanboys — is below. @AmandaMarcotte, in Salon: salon.com/2022/11/04/elo…
23/ Finally, if you want to support democracy and public confidence in elections, please consider making a donation to the nonpartisan nonprofit 501(c)(3) @OSET Institute, where I serve on the Board of Directors. osetinstitute.org Twitter is dead. Long live Twitter. /END
22/ I continue to participate in the ongoing public dialogue about democracy, elections, voting, tech, security and information integrity. I’m now at: linkedIn.com/in/eddie1perez Contact me for professional opportunities. Also: eddie1perez.bsky.social [email protected]
21/ I can also say w/ confidence that my fellow Tweeps were some of the smartest, most thoughtful, earnest, and humane professional colleagues that I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with. 🫡 And there is a silver lining: Many have carried those qualities to new employers.
20/ I cannot sign off without also feeling sadness for the company that Twitter used to be, and which Musk destroyed. The bird was not “freed” — Musk killed it. History will show this to be true. I see no way this empty husk of a once-great platform for news will survive.
19/ If Musk were to edit George Orwell’s “Animal Farm,” he might say: “All voices are equal, but some voices are more equal than others.”
18/ Musk has clearly signaled whose messages he believes deserve his personal support and amplification: -Right-wing stooges for Putin; -Antisemites spouting “replacement theory;” -Racists who question Black professional skills; -Anti-LGBTQ trolls The list goes on.
17/ This isn’t a story about “free speech” v. “censorship.” It’s a story about who gets to wield the power of speech — & a cautionary tale of how massive private wealth enables an immature man[child] to selectively elevate those who reject democracy’s bedrock value: Equality.
16/ It would be bad enough if Musk’s immaturity and lack of self-control simply made him an insufferable asshole. But Musk is an insufferable asshole with a global media platform that he has re-made in furtherance of pernicious values. That’s why I cannot be here any longer.
15/ Like Donald Trump, Rupert Murdoch, and too many other wealthy & powerful men, Elon Musk is a toxic mix of narcissism, insecurity, sexism, and a particularly cruel form of unkindness that seems especially gleeful about punching down on those with less power.
14/ Furthermore, ownership of a platform like this cannot be online therapy and acting-out to soothe the grievances of insecure, immature, thin-skinned billionaires (yes, note the plural) who desperately want & need to be liked (because they are psychologically damaged).
13/ A wiser person would understand that… - a global platform like this cannot deepen and reify the worst excesses and inequalities of capitalism, privilege, and power; - nor carry water for bad actors; - nor incentivize and monetize the ugliest, most cruel human behaviors.
12/ Musk utterly failed to understand that Twitter’s hardest challenges are not about more revenue & fewer rules. They are *human* challenges, about power, speech, competition, fairness, diversity, wealth, poverty, war, peace, safety, inclusion, equity, and privacy.
11/ Musk is a textbook example of the schmucks who believe that any problem can be solved with more tech, lower costs, more automation, better code, more “hardcore” engineers & the right investors — as if Twitter’s challenges are simply *business* challenges. But they are not.
10/ Musk also demonstrates an utter lack of understanding about how a global platform for interactive communication requires a thoughtful, judicious business strategy unlike any other product. Musk has done precisely the *opposite* of what leadership requires.
