Give a man a book, and he'll read for a week. Teach a man to write a book, and he'll never fully enjoy anything again.

@SerenaAbutilon A key part of my argument is that constant cheating, psychological abuse of a partner, and sexual harassment of coworkers is evidence of misogyny.

[Eric Nelson @literaryeric]

The really remarkable thing in this video is how angry he is to be questioned at all by a woman. You have to start wondering if maybe he doesn’t gave a healthy attitude toward women in general.

RFK Jr yelling at Dana Bash sounds like a rabid dog barking

@ContrarianSaver It’s not little, but it is mostly in the northeast. Read up on it on Wikipedia. Separate!

Did everyone know Hershey’s ice cream isn’t the same company—and never has been—as Hershey’s chocolate? Or was that just me?

With Blanche poised for confirmation, it seems some Jan. 6 defendants could be compensated, whether or not from any anti-weaponization fund. It also seems DOJ’s investigation of further Epstein-related crimes is functionally, if never officially, over. 3/

Tucker Carlson's worldview...

On economics, President Trump and conservatives were wrong and the far left was right.

On foreign policy, President Trump and conservatives were wrong and the far left was right.

On social issues, none of it really matters anyway. It's all a distraction.

At some point, it's worth being honest about what that makes you: a leftist.

[Eric Nelson @literaryeric]

@Mybloodis4you Do you know what would be a better response than this? Posting a clip of him yelling at a naked reporter like this.

[Eric Nelson @literaryeric]

@SerenaAbutilon That’s not the settlements I’m talking about obviously. https://t.co/31mHJb4SRr

[Eric Nelson @literaryeric]

@mdlonergan Yes, he’s an egotistical jerk.

[Eric Nelson @literaryeric]

@mdlonergan That’s crazy. You think he was the only person DiBlasio heard from? My office in NYC had already closed. Hospitals in Italy were full and everyone I knew was already masking by March 15.

@SsteinStuart Once anyone gets elected to Congress, they are not making rules for a city. They need a different “us,” and that us is “citizens.”

[Eric Nelson @literaryeric]

Mamdani understanding that expanding government benefits requires a brighter line between citizens and noncitizens is the beginning of the end of open borders as a progressive priority.

[TheBlaze @theblaze]

Mamdani says he wants to keep non-NYC residents out of city government run grocery stores by making sure shoppers use an ID: “We are looking to make sure that we target New Yorkers … sort of a library card-esque thing.”

[Eric Nelson @literaryeric]

@SerenaAbutilon He’s settled several cases of misconduct at work. Does he call Dana Bash “too dumb” in this clip? If not, he did in a different part of the interview.

[Eric Nelson @literaryeric]

@SerenaAbutilon You know about his long history of cheating in every relationship, for example? That’s not in dispute.

[Michael Sobolik @michaelsobolik]

“If their assessments are correct, Ellison was fueling the A.I. ambitions of America's biggest geopolitical rival.”

[Eric Nelson @literaryeric]

@SerenaAbutilon That’s angriest I’ve seen anyone in a cable show in a while, and Dana Bash is not a provocateur. But I’m mostly joking here, because RFKJR is a well-known misogynist. Probably genetic!

[Eric Nelson @literaryeric]

@mdlonergan Fauci was wrong about all kinds of things. He also had no actual power and is only the target because people don’t want to be mad at Trump about it.

[Eric Nelson @literaryeric]

@beachvetlbc Your first mistake is thinking a discussion on CNN or a discussion with RFKJR about Covid is going to be anything but spin.

@whittywhisperer @kennedybattalio Am I allowed to think that Donald Trump, RFKJR, Anthony Fauci, and Chuck Schumer are all lying narcissists?

[Eric Nelson @literaryeric]

@StLouisVI Yes, but once in congress, DSA members have only "Americans and non-Americans" to pass laws for.

[Eric Nelson @literaryeric]

@Hereward99 Most blue states give plenty of aid to undocumented immigrants, includind NY. It's just federal aid that can't be given to them. But things like single payer and UBI aren't going to work if undocumented immigrants also qualify.
