YOU HEARD ME WRITE A washpot never boils — Go back to the drawing, bored. Wrap your header round it: It’s not rock; it’s science.

Israel is hellbent on taking N. Gaza. The IDF burns, destroys, and razes every building after pushing out the Palestinians it does not kill or bury inside the rubble. No war crime like it has occurred anywhere since WW2. And the US-EU look on... theguardian.com/world/2024/nov…

50 children. If 50 Israeli or American children were killed in a single day of violence, the world would stop turning. But these massacres don’t even register in the US media.

While as a scholar of international law I have to conclude on the available evidence that Israel’s conduct in Gaza is, as a legal matter, genocide, as a matter of morality, the perverted gratuitous murder & destruction by the IDF, killing for the hell of it, slaughtering children

If you’re still waiting in line as polls begin to officially close, do not leave. Anyone who is standing in line before the cutoff still has the right to vote. If anyone - including election officials - tries to force you to leave, call 866-OUR-VOTE

Don't be alarmed by Trump taking an early lead in the electoral vote count. We knew Kentucky, West Virginia, and other deep red states would be the first to be called. Hang in there. And if you're still in line to vote, stay there.

Reminder: We will not get the results tonight. Don't let the horse race media coverage and repeated "Breaking News" chyrons get to you. Stay calm, drink water, and wait it out. Every vote must be counted.

Résumons: Trump détient le pouvoir exécutif, législatif, la cour suprême… et le 4e pouvoir … c’est Elon Musk. Réveillez vous en France et en Europe et inscrivez l’indépendance des médias dans la loi.

« L’inconvénient naturel de la démocratie est qu’elle lie les mains des personnes bien intentionnées et ouvre des possibilités illimitées à ceux qui ne la prennent pas au sérieux. » Toujours se souvenir de Václav Havel (1936-2011) 🇨🇿✌️

Many people are extremely upset about last night's results, and others are ecstatic. These reactions make sense, but as a reminder that things don't always work out as expected, here's my favorite Taoist story.

Pas de tweet au sujet de ma chronique matinale du jour, parce que je vais quitter ce réseau. Je suis un peu triste de perdre cette chouette commu sciences mais je ne peux pas me voiler la face, ce serait de la dissonance cognitive que de continuer à utiliser X

I’ve been in or around politics for over a half-century now. I’ve watched as corporations and the super-rich flooded D.C. with campaign cash and ransacked our system. It won't be easy, but here’s how we break the corporate oligarchy and return power to the people.

First and last hot take: "What I have to do is to see, at any rate, that I do not lend myself to the wrong which I condemn." Staying here IS lending oneself. Every second here, any engagement here, enables and contributes to fund a n4zi. Bye and see you on the other side.
