1. REAL TALK: It's kind of scary to quit a (stable) job that you've devoted most of your professional to and start something new

But I fucking did it!

My newsletter starts on Monday

2. The cool thing about working for a large organization is that there is always someone else to blame if things go wrong.

But if this fails, it's all on me.

Please give it a shot

3. Like many people, I have my frustrations with the modern media environment.

I feel like things can and must get better.

So I'm trying something.

My newsletter won't solve everything but it's my attempt to improve things, even just a little bit

4. There is a lot of inertia to life.

It's hard to try new things. It's even hard to change small things like where you get your news.

My hope is that you'll go on this journey with me.

Let's see what happens.

TRUMP: "At the request of Democrats it will be a steel barrier rather than a concrete wall."

What Democrat has requested a border wall made of steel?
TRUMP: "The border wall would very quickly pay for itself."

Absolutely no evidence of this. Trump cites the cost of illegal drugs, most of which come through official ports of entry.
TRUMP: "The wall will also be paid for indirectly by the great new trade deal we have made with Mexico."

This is not true. And the deal hasn't even been approved by Congress.

A total and humiliating capitation to a president with no interest in the truth.

The news media is supposed to inform the public.

They are now being used to disseminate government propaganda.
REMEMBER: When Obama wanted to address the nation on immigration, the networks refused to air it because they believe it would be "overtly political."

What a joke.

The idea that a Democratic rebuttal or fact-checking will make this better is insulting.

If I break my arm and a doctor gives me a cast, I'm thankful.

If a doctor breaks my arm and hands me a band-aid, it's not a favor.

Any network that airs this live is knowingly participating in a disinformation campaign
Some conflicting info, but @JenniferJJacobs of Bloomberg says the networks will air this live

This show just how deeply the mainstream media misunderstands Trump and his tactics

@JenniferJJacobs This is what happened when Obama gave a primetime address on immigration in 2014

(1) First and foremost the ACA/ObamaCare is still the law. If you need insurance please sign up now healthcare.gov (2) This ruling redefines how far conservative activist judges will go in shooting down laws they do not like. The ruling is absurd without any legal merit.
(3) This ruling will likely be overturned because it is laughable on its face from a legal perspective and would literally kill 10,000's of Americans per year so Republicans will not actually want it to happen from a political perspective.
(4) In a country where judicial branch's legitimacy is hanging by a thread, this further undermines rule of law. Republican activist judges know no bounds in their pursuit of undermining voting rights, healthcare, etc. and future legislation must be written w/ that understanding.

NEW: Federal prosecutors have filed their sentencing memo on Michael Cohen. It's not kind. They say his crimes "were marked by a pattern of deception that permeated his professional life."
Federal prosecutors in New York say Michael Cohen should receive a "substantial term of imprisonment," even after giving him some credit for his cooperation with Mueller's investigation.
President Trump makes an appearance in DOJ's sentencing memo for his former lawyer, Michael Cohen. He is "Individual-1."

Do you want to know why most relationshits and marriages fail? Because most people’s understanding of women (including most women’s) is at muck level.

Drop the pills.

This is not about humblebragging. If anything, it shows how (self-)damaged, arrogant and presumptuous I am.
Pill people and any half-decent PUA will tell you that, to be emotionally supportive of a woman (girlfriend), you need three ingredients:
· Feed her.
· Listen to her.
· Sex & cuddle her.

Great advice for a clueless 17yo, no judgement – you gotta start somewhere...
NEWSFLASH #1: WOMEN LOVE FOOD.

Especially delicious food. Which is why I often take my magic show to the kitchen or an under-the-radar restaurant that serves the shockingly Sublime.

Smell and taste are the most visceral of senses. (Pro Tip: Touch even more so, but trickier.)
