KNOW THE GAME—100,000+ tweets of truth later, and this obscure one from September is among the most critical.

Propagandists deflect truth by turning any factual statement into a question of motive.

It’s a nasty, effective trick, and democracies have died from it. Stay vigilant.
Evil men slaughter norms to hide corruption.
Trump is handing Putin everything. He gave him the keys on day one.
Dictators have few succession options.
“The masses had reached the point where they would, at the same time, believe everything and nothing.”
There’s no happy ending for Trump.
All the fake president’s* men are cons, and the media handed them microphones and called it news.
McConnell Barr Trump Pence join Putin in lying about election to deceive the masses to remain in power.
Trump loves the Covids. Either that, or he owes so much money to bad people, he has to keep up the campaign profiteering.

In 2017, I feared Trump might pull a “Catch 22,” and drop bombs on America like Milo Minderbender, who believed collaborating with the enemy is patriotic if it’s done for greed.

“It was almost no trick at all..to turn vice into virtue, slander into truth..arrogance into humility, plunder into philanthropy, thievery into honor, blasphemy into wisdom, brutality into patriotism, sadism into justice..It merely required no character.”-Joseph Heller, Catch-22
We are dealing with professional propagandists.
Imagine if Eleanor Roosevelt, who gave speeches during her husband’s polio crisis, was commented on by Trump? What would he call her? And how would the media report it?

As she once noted: “Only a man’s character is the real criterion of worth.”-me, 2016

There is no reason to think the United States is immune to this danger.
Know the game. Remain awake. Be optimistic, realistic, and prepared.
We have a traitor in the White House. He brought evil with him.
I believe in our stronger angels. But if they need us to demonstrate, and me to write, and y’all to stay loud, then semper fi.💜👊🏼

Traitor Trump faces criminal prosecutions and is a billion-dollars in debt.

Top GOP goose-stepping with him indicate they are desperate.

We aren’t taking another minute of their shit. Time to make good trouble. The fight is now.
We won the first round. It’s our move.
Listen to the words of our newly elected President @JoeBiden

Putin is afraid of our freedom.

Tried to find an article celebrating the fact that @JoeBiden and @KamalaHarris are going to have the smartest cabinet since Kennedy’s, and all I found was divisive hackneyed shit reporting. I thought we were past that.

Do your gaddam jobs.
I guess the war for truth continues, and it’s up to unpaid Twitter activists to do the media’s job.
In 2016, I relentlessly wrote about the shit media coverage of the election. Here’s my first post-election piece:

ICYMI: “Deutsche Bank is considering selling the Trump loans to a secondary market. However, that idea does not appear likely to gain traction, as it is improbable another buyer would want the problems that are attached.”

Trump’s enormous debts and vast financial corruption make him a national security risk.
