I fear for the future of my children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren. I never thought I would ever live to see this devastating repeat of history. How can so many people be so cruel and inhumane is beyond me, especially those who are near and dear to me. I know these statements are probably very simplistic and repetitive but believe me when I say yesterday solidified my disgust of our society.

We need to do everything we can for the next four years, and more—whatever it takes—to upend this illegitimate, cruel, vicious and criminal regime. They are not fit, and do not deserve, to run the country. PERIOD. And the breathless and fawning articles being spewed out of “mainstream” sources such as CNN and NYT (about the asshole’s remarkable comeback, etc.) make me projectile vomit. To reiterate what someone else said—thank you, Michael, for helping keep us sane. I intend to make some type of resistant noise—no matter how minuscule-whenever possible from now until this cancer is excised permanently—or die trying!

I really, really wish you would start posting on Bluesky - I just can't go on twitter anymore because of Musk. I get why people haven't left - but at this point, it seems more even more problematic than before.

I've counted on you and Greg Sargent for keeping me sane since 2015 - and while I appreciate being a subscriber here, I miss your voice as news happens.

Agreed. Blue Sky used to be super lefty and kind of annoying but enough centrists have joined that I don't think it's like that anymore. People also have reported getting better click rates. I have no beef if for business reasons, people still need to post on X/Twitter. I just would love it if you would consider posting to Blue Sky.
