I would just like every tech CEO in America to know that I am willing to be “pushed out” of my house for $4 million.

"A serious liberty movement has to be able to say two things at the same time: the government should not censor bigots, and we do not have to build a home for bigots.

That is not hypocrisy. That is basic self-respect."

Amen!

Americans should not be executed for practicing our First and Second Amendment rights.

We cannot believe we need to say this.

New Year. New Guy. New Look.

"A “no kings” agenda should methodically prune away the many emergency presidential powers buried in the federal code, most of which were crafted under the assumption that we would have responsible actors in the Oval Office."

Yes, the US needs thorough reform.

My wife just realized this could be a great premise for a sitcom:

if you'd like to see a wide re-release of Hundreds of Beavers in theaters this year, one night only, on thousands of screens — retweet this. we've got some doubters.

In America, the way we know a person has committed a crime is that he is prosecuted and convicted.

The "government says so" is not sufficient.

@avensobrien I used to put butter and peanut butter on a single slice of bread - one layer on top of the other.

[Joshua Reed Eakle 🗽 @JoshEakle]

Trump is now demanding Bukele expand his concentration camps to house American citizens.

There's legitimately only one path out now:

Impeach and convict.

Reminder to Republicans in Congress:

You can stop this nonsensical, destructive, unpopular tariff policy whenever you want.

A veto-proof majority to end the bogus emergency declarations makes the whole thing go away.

[Av3rnus @av3rnus]

One can always hope, but sadly I won't be holding my breath for it.

[Carissa Byrne Hessick @CBHessick]

I find myself wondering whether seeing how the Trump administration is wielding power will convince folks on the left that they should be less supportive of an all-powerful administrative state.

Uhh, yeah, that's why they pile up, for some lofty-sounding reason like this rather than me just buying more books than I have time to read...

[Elle Lookbook @EvaLovesDesign]

In Japanese, "tsundoku" means collecting books and letting them pile up, not for neglect, but for the joy of knowing they're there, full of untold stories.

[Alec Stapp @AlecStapp]

This is one of those stories that could only happen in California:

1. Mayor of Los Angeles issues an executive directive making it fast & easy to build 100% affordable housing.

2. She doesn’t include any new public money in the order, so it’s supposed to just be a fake messaging thing.

3. But there normal process to build housing in CA is so terrible, new policies that make it easy to build can be profitable (even for affordable housing).

4. So private developers start building a ton of new housing using this streamlined process.

5. Faced with a surprising pro-housing supply policy success, the mayor immediately started amending the directive to be more burdensome and revert to the status quo.

The end 🫠
