Just got a new shipment of #MasterlessMen from @cambUP_History.🔥

If you want a signed copy for the holidays just DM me and we will make it happen!!!
P.S. Thanks also to all who weighed in on the #audiobook version.

I've talked to several professionals about my voice, and I've recently done some TV work (airing in January on @ScienceChannel!), so I'm gonna do it!!!

So excited. Hit the studio for the first time tomorrow.😊
Oh, yes - this arrived yesterday, too.

I am so very grateful to the Social Science History Association. #SSHA18

Re: the meritocracy of academe:
A prof of *literature* gets @nytimes coverage for history using the same old sources to make the same old arguments, while scholars w groundbreaking research & methodology are overlooked bc they lack #IvyLeague pedigree...

Or is because they are not the "right" race or gender?
And so a subtweet from above:

Go buy Prof. Richard Blackett's fantastic new book on the exact same subject. It's based on much more extensive research & offers *new* conclusions. @DGershenowitz @cambUP_History

@Ben_C_Chambers oh yes, not just "some" - at least a few thousand:

@Ben_C_Chambers As John Hope Franklin showed, as early as 1834, Southern slaveholders - led by Fire-Eaters mostly out of #SouthCarolina - were eyeing Brazil (& indeed the entire Gulf & Caribbean - as places to expand their slavery empire.

I don't think I've ever been this excited about a #NewYear. #2019's gonna be the year we revolutionize the way the American public both understands & consumes history!🔥🔥🔥

Big things… instagram.com/p/BsGCCTNHnOl/…
Seriously: I think sometimes ppl trained as academics have a hard time imagining communicating their expertise w the public in any form other than the written word.

Time to change that.

People are increasingly only willing to read very short pieces, sometimes not even that.
So we can either keep lamenting that ppl don't read enough, aren't self-educating enough, etc., or we can a abandon our own snobberies abt form & repackage history in formats that ppl DO consume.

**I’ll continue to share Paramashiva’s vision and mission of Kailaasa. Parama Satya needs to be revealed to the whole world in every field.
Understand when an enlightened consciousness assumes human body and manifests Uttamotava State Space Power Being and Super consciousness, paramasatya, ultimate truth must be revealed unfiltered, need to be told to the world as it is.
Even a small compromise on expression can delay the Enlightenment of millions just because the social, legal, political system does not want the truth. The truth should not be denied for the whole world. That is why Paramashiva has decided Kailaasa needs to be revived.

Much less 3rd party votes in midterm vs 2016 & they seem to have come home to Democrats, not GOP.

Whites of both genders dip slightly.

POC have if anything gotten more Democrat even w/ “lowest black AA unemployment rate in history.”

They want your stuff, not a job.
Trump won whites handily across all age groups in 2016.

In 2018, Republicans did not maintain that margin.

Across all generations margins slipped. Especially among the younger groups.
Trump even did better with white college women than House Republicans managed.

The non-college whites of both genders shifted 5 points compared to Trump 2016. That plus the 3rd party voters coming home mostly to Dems made defeat assured.

Don’t know how this happened tbh.

Got this email today from @clicktotweet and I want to talk about it a bit.

I've used CTT since 2014. I've been on the free plan and haven't had a compelling reason to upgrade to the Pro plan. I've never hit the limit on free links so the pain hasn't been there for me. I also haven't really thought about CTT all that often. And that's key... 2/
I have no relationship with the brand other than pure utility. I go to it when I remember to use it and get what I need. The end. It's an incredibly straightforward tool to use (props!) and I can get in and out in mere seconds. And when I use it? 3/

The Creators of the World’s Misfortunes
by Joseph Goebbels
"One could not understand this #war if one did not always keep in mind the fact that International J//ewry stands behind all the unnatural forces that our united enemies use to attempt to deceive the world and keep humanity in the dark.
"It is, so to speak, the mortar that holds the enemy coalition firmly together, despite its differences of class, ideology, and interests.

We all sense it. The coordinated effort to take out the NRA. Media all in with staged, scripted, coached youth. Excitement instead of grieving from many on the Left
Hogg flown up here to NJ to agitate.

Let me explain to you all in a couple of tweets exactly what is going on.
We all agree we want to eliminate deaths of students in school. We disagree on how to make that happen.

This isn't a debate on whether to protect life. It is now a debate about what is most effective and about our freedom.

We will make a rational decision based on facts
#MAGA
Dan Bongino, Dana L. and others are helping now to cut through the media emotion propaganda and operate on facts. 2 + 2 = 4. Just because some Leftist Soros-aligned bureaucrat says it is 5 doesn't make it so.

We need to be clear about what their end game is. They want 2 ....
