If you’ve referred to Trump as “duly elected” in tweets habitually in this term, you’re account is almost certainly bad
Of course he was fucking elected. But that specific phrasing is a tell

Doing this story yesterday was extra depressing because you have three layers of tragedy: You gotta read details of a truly horrific double homicide of people begging & praying for their lives. You hear stories of an accomplice who seems to have reformed & whose prosecutors...
...seemed to have kept evidence under wraps that could have spared him the death penalty. (One of the prosecutors responsible for ensuring he got the death penalty, along with 5 jurors, now say the inmate should live.) & thirdly, this is set against the backdrop/foreground of...
...a president and administration that is currently on a killing spree of federal inmates, for which there is no real political benefit but they’re doing it anyway.

I cannot think of greater emblem of the Trump era than Scott Atlas.

I mean this whole heartedly and this is not meant as a compliment
You could give me as much fame, media attention, career advancement, and flattery from the leader of the free world as I could stomach. Give me a lifetime’s worth of it. I could still not imagine any price so hefty that it would compel me to do a fraction of what he did.
And for what?

purely anecdotal but: for years as i sourced up w/ admin & Trumpworld folks I found that it was useful to be immediately upfront & transparent & let the aide/official/Trump friend/whoever know off the bat how much I despised Trump & thought is policies, et al were garbage...
…It had an effect of establishing at the start “ok, we both know where each person is coming from, there’s no mystery here, if each wants to keep talking, let’s keep talking.” I found it way more useful than pretending that I was coming in as a “just the facts, ma’am” apolitical
…kind of guy. I saw that most of the time, the Trump person appreciated this, & considered me less of a phony, or w/e. My limited sense of trying this version of the approach, but w/ Biden people, is that it doesn’t work as well on them...

For trumpy and certain other people advocating schools “open” (which is a term that means different things to different people, given people agree kids need to be back in schools but disagree with how), I wonder how many have them have spoken to even 1 teacher who’s going thru it
In a lot of places, it’s not good!
I have family, like many of you, who are teachers and care about the students and know how detrimental the current situation is to the kids. But judging a teacher or their union for reacting how they are under current conditions, when everything they’re doing is a direct...

“I was advised by senior officials in the White House at the time that I should couch this in terms of countering violence, rather than countering domestic terrorism or white supremacy, when discussing it at the White House or in front of the president.”

This was after… El Paso
"Neumann said that it’s been standard operating procedure for years among top officials and Trump aides to avoid “trigger words” when briefing the president—severely complicating efforts to respond to high-profile killings that have occurred during the Trump presidency.”
"She said that such trigger words have included “white supremacy,” “Russia,” “election interference,” and “domestic terrorism.” [Others, including Miles] Taylor, who announced his break with Trump and support for Biden shortly prior to Neumann, confirmed her recollection."
