This year's National Guard's birthday comes after a painful tragedy. The First Lady and I continue to pray for the families and loved ones of Specialist Sarah Beckstrom, who lost her life last month in an ambush attack, and for Staff Sgt. Andrew Wolfe, as he recovers from his injuries.

He’s made it! Wishing Dick Van Dyke a very happy 100th birthday! 🎂

👀 Holy shit. Hey @forwardky.bsky.social, “guest author” means that you contacted the author and asked them if they’d like to write something for your blog. It doesn’t mean cross-posting their entire article verbatim without asking and making people think they wrote it for your publication.

I know for a fact: every school shooting, every mall shooting, every concert shooting, ever nightclub shooting, every house of worship shooting, every parade shooting, EVERY shooting involves a gun/guns. IT'S THE GUNS.

Between Indiana and MTG, I definitely think something is legitimately fracturing inside MAGA.

Look at how pretty this is (people and horses)

Merry Griftmas! Melania’s 12 days of Chreesmas!

"I can't quit you, Vlad."

Who tosses a coin like that?

There's a very real risk that US cybersecurity firms and US big tech firms in general could be compelled to become hostile within weeks or days (if they haven't already), and I'm taking what's going on with US gov, cybersecurity, and intelligence, very seriously.

This isn’t a left or right issue. Access to health care affects us all.

So any student can get any faculty suspended for any reason at any time? Won’t that kind of lead to a slight faculty shortage?

Microsoft can fuck off, Canada should be doing what the EU is doing. Kick Microsoft and all US big tech out of the government, switch to open source and domestic alternatives. None of it can be trusted.

So many things are horrible right now but my college kid is home for the holidays so at least I have something positive to report.

My #1 new persistent cybersecurity recommendation for every country's government is to kick Microsoft out, switch to a Linux-based operating system, and kick every other US big tech cloud provider out. Start investing heavily in domestic alternatives, and donate to open source software projects.

Fascists like to announce things as les faits accomplis, when they are really just projecting their desired outcomes & trying to will them to happen.

More of this!! Well done sir.

Aha! This is what I imagined back in 2024, as private prison companies ramped up construction in anticipation of Trump’s return. That “slavery hole” in the 14th amendment? That’s the underlying plan. So glad this is finally getting exposed.

Interesting layer of analysis on this well known quote. And still relevant to strategy now because a lot of right wing arguments are status threat encoded, but a bunch really aren’t. “Small government is better for the economy” is bullshit, but it’s not generally perceived as a race based argument.

There was a time when some reporters referred to me as the “Nate Silver of Obamacare.” It was meant as a compliment at the time. I haven’t taken it as one in many years.

Heartbroken by the shooting at Brown University. My thoughts are with the students, faculty, staff, and families impacted. No campus should ever feel unsafe.

We are heartbroken for the students, staff & community at Brown University, and are thinking of those who were hurt and killed tonight. We are in touch with our locals at the university & encourage people to listen to local law enforcement for more info. Please stay safe. #EndGunViolence

Hey Heritage Society bigots, eugenicists & other goons: Y’all can’t make REAL education vanish in this country. Human knowledge is forever. 100’s of 1000’s of those who’ve actually studied REAL civics & history are happy to “homeschool” the kids like this pro-Kat sister!

Abolish ICE. Fix the immigration system.

A reminder that the deadline to enroll in ACA coverage starting January 1st is Monday night in most states. In Idaho that’s the FINAL deadline for 2026 coverage. If you’ve been holding off in hopes of a last-minute deal…don’t wait any longer. Enroll before Monday night.

Measles Outbreak Brings With It Echoes of the Pandemic. In South Carolina, parents struggle to deal with infections that have brought quarantines and remote learning. Health care workers are bracing for an increase in cases. #measles www.nytimes.com/2025/12/13/u...

One more thing, to all my American friends, I love you, and my professional recommendations are in no way a reflection on how I feel about Americans in general, none of it is personal. I have many close American friends that I love, admire, and respect. It's not your fault.

WATCH: Adjunct faculty typically aren’t offered employer-sponsored health insurance, leaving many to rely on the Affordable Care Act for coverage. With subsidies set to end, professor Thomas Moomjy & others may face sharply higher premiums - or be forced to go without.

WTF? America should bow in shame at this atrocity & immediately institute at least SOME changes to gun laws that protect us.

Dang. Cosplaying police brutality at Tokyo comic con.. Welp. Better than cosplaying mass shootings I suppose 🫩🫣🥴

What people posting this don't get: this is what the market will bear, because there aren't a ethora of decent paying jobs in rural America. They are few and far between. And with remote work disappearing, it's not like you can get away from it all.

Outraged that the Chump in Chief circulated false information about the Brown shooting, putting more students, faculty, and staff in danger. He's a fucking stupid, arrogant nightmare.

Chancellor Merz doesn’t understand that Trump & his Politburo’s interests are ABSOLUTELY not the interests of the American people. Maybe those of 400 billionaires & a couple hundred thousand psychos - but NOT ours.

“The old system, whatever its merits, is clearly and unequivocally broken and something new has to be built in its place. Something stronger, something more ready to use and comfortable using political power.” Fantastic essay and wild alignment with Terrance Woodbury’s talk at #Persuasion2025

Word. We hate it here.

I’m on Trump’s side with this one. I think we should impeach Puerto Rico’s president. In fact, make it priority number one!

Republicans really have become an exaggerated caricature of the very worst stereotypes even their furthest-left critics ever made of them.

You know what Goebbels said and that is ever true today?? This is what happened in this country! Those of you who allow yourself to be manipulated have convinced yourself you are in control when in fact you have given your power away and looked for a scapegoat instead of owning your own bias 1/

Once again I need everyone to watch this and then watch it again!

You put thumbs in the holes? 😬

It’s well past time to arrest these criminals.
