ANNOUNCEMENT! I have officially joined the land of Substack. It was probably inevitable. But I'm very excited about the opportunities the platform affords. And most of all, looking forward to making insufferable people's heads explode

Incredible. Tulsi Gabbard on October 31, 2025 claimed Trump was putting an end to Washington's endless cycle of "regime change" & "nation-building." Meanwhile a full-scale regime change op is underway in Venezuela, and Trump has explicitly imposed US-led "nation-building" in Gaza

Rare instance of a pool reporter extracting useful information from Trump. Did he have a phone call with Maduro, as the NYT reported? Trump says he doesn’t want to comment, but then comments yes, he did have the phone call

How so? You voted for someone who tried the same regime change op in his first term, and blew it, with Rubio as his point-person in the Senate. It's the most predictable thing in the world that he'd try to do it again, especially now with Rubio as his Kissinger-like svengali

Amusing poll, but not buying that 27% of "those who talk politics daily" have a favorable opinion of Jeffrey Epstein. Doesn't help that to access the crosstabs, you must purchase a "Gold" Membership that will teach you about the "hopes, dreams and values of everyday Americans"

That's just a cool new name Hegseth (and Trump) have decided to start using. There's been no statutory change designating the holder of his office the "Secretary of War." To enact such a change, the National Security Act of 1947 would have to be amended, which it hasn't been
@mtracey Secretary of War.

Evolution of meme culture: if you have reservations about the Secretary of Defense failing to provide adequate justification for his extra-judicial killing spree, you're just an uptight nerd who can't take a joke

Funny how Trump's desire to topple the Venezuelan government in his first year never came up during the 2024 presidential campaign. Yet another curious omission. Similar to his desire to annex Greenland, Panama, possibly Canada, and establish a US military protectorate in Gaza

Fascinating that Trump feels he has the unilateral power to close the airspace over Venezuela, similar to how he did with the airspace over Iran

It'll never stop being hilarious how these lemmings constantly invoke Whitney's book like it's an authoritative religious text, but can't distill its argument, or cite any of its alleged evidence. They just incant it, like a spell https://t.co/V6gicYyIN5

In his 2020 book Relentless Pursuit: My Fight for the Victims of Jeffrey Epstein, lawyer Bradley Edwards writes that Stanley Pottinger, a loyal David Boies confidante who had joined the tireless team...
@mtracey The evidence is in @_whitneywebb book. You know this but you’re intentionally lying to your audience.

Such a persecution complex with this one! "Suffering" too much to serve out the *two year term* she was elected to? Is she resigning on medical grounds? Fears assassination... just like Charlie Kirk? Woe is her! Unless there are truly exigent circumstances, resigning in the
Oh I haven’t suffered enough for you while you post all day behind a screen? Do I have to stay until I’m assassinated like our friend Charlie Kirk. Will that be good enough for you then? Shit posting on the internet all day isn’t fighting. Get off YOUR ass and run for

This is exactly like one of those absurd arrests that are always happening in the UK, for posting objectionable tweets. Except it was done in Tennessee. To avenge Charlie Kirk. During the Right's little "George Floyd Moment" this year

The best way to honor Charlie Kirk is not to criminalize speech.

A legitimate mystery is how Michael Jackson ended up at Epstein's house in Palm Beach

"Could have tried to stop him" from doing what? "Reported him to the authorities" for doing what? Epstein was never charged for any conduct after 2005. These emails are from 10+ years later! What's really "shocking" is how people still refuse to learn the basic facts of this case

One of the most ridiculous indictments you'll ever see. Reads like an inside joke the government decided to take literally. (The two guys charged are 21 and 20)
