@SkyDancingBlog Better than Scott, but he was one of those who visited Moscow in 2018, on the 4th of July.
Guessing Trump will end the Secret Service protection for former presidents. And clueless people will cheer that.
@sarahmiller_22747 Economy was the key issue for most voters, I don't think they voted to destabilize the system. Anyway, the big problem is what will replace the old system.
@noplasticshower @rbreich The goal is not to govern as we know it, it's to destabilize the system.

@kenwhite.bsky.social You blocked them on Threads too?

Trump said we had a call and the Kremlin said we didnโ€™t. This will be common going forward.

We donโ€™t do propaganda so you will believe something. We do it so you will believe nothing. Then you will do nothing

Journalism's fight for survival in a postliterate democracy

The truth is going out of business as technology turns us into a folk-story society, ripe for influence by a demagogue.

And from Black historian Jemar Tisby:

"I find most of the postmortem pontificating about why Democrats lost the presidential election unpersuasive.

The reason, not the only one but a major one, Democrats lost the presidential election is disinformation and misinformation super-charged by billionaires and Russia through a network of right-wing media outlets and institutions."

@randahl I think drawing conclusions is a bit early.They're still counting votes.That usually takes over a month after the election day, mostly because of the votes by email. I'm talking about a few millions of votes. It won't change the outcome, obviously.
