I will never forget how the New York Times had to make a second map that excluded donations for Sanders to get a sense of how individual donor support was distributed amongst other candidates and the DNC ended up appointing the two least popular ones for two consecutive elections
Musk to pursue efficiency is a joke. The electric car was the wildly inefficient response to the #1 cause of air pollution, the private gas-fueled car.

The party that is obsessed with child sex offenders, & is close to a cult that claims child sex offenders run the government, just nominated a guy once investigated for allegedly sex-trafficking a 17 year old girl to be in charge of the country’s legal system.

#WolffBites: Biggest cash winners Nov 6, the first day after Trump's election, included Elon Musk whose wealth went up by many, many times what he contributed to Trump. Biggest billionaires made out like bandits. Buying politicians pays.

We’re seeing a sudden and massive subscriber surge at @LeverNews.
Seems as if people are waking up to the fact that corporate media is the problem, and that reader-supported news outlets need to expand.
I’m interested in hiring DC reporters. Get in touch if interested.
Just a reminder, Trump himself is weak and scared. Don’t be intimidated, I’m absolutely not, and you shouldn’t be either.
The online flying monkeys are just as weak. We will just be ready to pick up the pieces.
This is actually a silver lining for the Dems: I’ve long believed that there is no natural or obvious heir to Trump because Trump is sui generis. There is no one else with his background or story or appeal or cult following.
