This. It’s not like those of us who want police reform shrug off crime. We just see the police and their systemic failures as PART of the problem, and a threat to the public safety we want to have for our kids and our communities. https://t.co/NCoJHOrtBW

Good morning! If you were an “unnamed Democrat” who wet the bed to the press after the debate, I hope you stub your toe on the corner of your bed frame this morning, spill coffee on your shirt and then lock your keys in your car. But mostly, I hope you know you’re a fucking loser

Here's the thing. DeSantis might be more of a "normal" Republican in terms of the way he presents himself, but he's every bit as evil and authoritarian as Trump, and media figures shouldn't present him as otherwise just because he comes across as less uncouth.

These comments have been there for years, always anonymous. I’ll take them seriously when they’re from known named sources. https://t.co/fgmecJbS9t

I have one message to every Republican exasperated by Trump: it doesn’t end until you make it end.

I strongly believe everyone is entitled to a vigorous defense, no matter how repellent. I also have questions about the kind of attorney that would be like hell yeah I'll defend Harvey Weinstein. https://t.co/9zJRz5wOXD

If pundits are right about a GOP sweep, there will be much talk about Democrats’ messaging. But it’s hard to see how an electorate opting for election deniers, frauds like Vance and Lake, the kitty litter guy and Walker is amenable to messaging. Maybe we’re just a broken country.

🇺🇸🗳️🇨🇦 If you "don't care about politics", understand that this is a luxury you've had because your country is safe enough, where you have rights & opportunities & supportive services & a community that respects you. This can change. You don't have to *like* politics. But it's time ...

This whole thing is just a jaw-dropping read. I would delight in the schadenfreude of watching this guy show his whole charlatan ass to the world in real time, but there’s so much REAL loss happening for NO fucking reason other than the ego of a small man with too much money. https://t.co/1ZlDEUwwHs

Four years ago, a white supremacist murdered 11 Jews in their synagogue. None of them were wealthy. None of them owned any corporations. None of them controlled any industries. https://t.co/kpsvqDWSDc

Do not do this! It’s not funny or some kind of gag. It’s bad and toxic and dangerous. https://t.co/KUYvbg5HKZ

i will say this, definitely — i am not giving these fucking idiot pricks my money, on general principle. i think eventually a social network that requires a small subscription is going to be necessary, but i will be damned if i give it to king shitpost and the taint remora.

The base eats this up. DeSantis and others hope the base is looking for Trump Lite, for Trump With Polish, for Trump With a Smile, for Trump with a Pedigree.

No—the base wants THIS. And the GOP can’t suddenly condemn this now because they long ago weakly chose to accept it. https://t.co/6fKu1tCrcZ

Really, the mass impersonation of Musk by verified accounts was a magnificent satirical art project that achieved its purpose: demonstrating Musk's hypocrisy, the impossibility of speech absolutism, *and* the utter foolishness of the Twitter Blue revamp.

— Katherine Cross (@Quinnae_Moon) November 6, 2022

And people were worried that Elon Musk would secretly use twitter to help Republicans, here he is just doing it publicly, I hope everyone feels silly about being concerned.
