I am 52 years old. I have been working since I was 15 years old. I have no savings, no retirement, and will never own a home before I die. And there is now a trillionaire.

I want to say something about @60Minutes since so many conservatives are trashing it. When my Dad was first diagnosed with Glioblastoma and we were trying to decide who he and my mother should sit down with and talk about the end days of his life - we ultimately landed on Leslie Stahl and @60Minutes. Leslie came to our ranch in Sedona and sat down and profiled both my parents together for an exclusive sit down. We ultimately chose Leslie because of her prestige as a journalist and respected history of the show. Leslie and her crew were simultaneously professional and respectful of the delicate emotional state my entire family was in. She was in our secluded home as we all grappled with the concept that my dad was dying and fast from a rare cancer in front of the entire world. She and her producers did a wonderful job. Feel free to watch it, it’s beautifully done. This is not a situation just any person without experience can airdrop and handle the dynamics of. This is not something a rookie commentator or podcaster could have maneuvered with the respect needed. Experience does matter. Not all legacy media is garbage nor are all reporters. This “throw all the bastards out” mentality is obnoxious and just going to breed more insanity and distrust on both sides. I don’t want woke journalism. I don’t want anitwoke journalism. I just want great journalism. Be careful what you wish for conservatives, - there could come a day when Rachel Maddow is put in charge instead of Bari Weiss and then tell me how you feel. The pendulum swings both ways.

Decades from now @BariWeiss will be best known as a destroyer of greatness.

The Graham Platner story is landing because it confirms a bunch of his critics’ prior concerns: unvetted, history of poor decision-making, the kind of light misogyny that tends to go along with male bad decision-making. Those are all problems! But it’s worth asking if they’re problems that should be disqualifying for a senate seat and I think the answer to that is no.

Breaking News: The Justice Dept. is said to have opened an investigation into E. Jean Carroll, who had accused Donald Trump of rape. In her civil case against him, a jury had found Trump liable for sexually abusing and defaming Carroll. nyti.ms/4dMgruH

The high court has been captured & weaponized by the far-right for quite a number of years now. In any high-stakes decision, we can expect they'll simply rubber stamp the Trump administration's lawlessness. It’s why we must unrig the Supreme Court by expanding it to 13 justices. We also need term limits or staggered appointments. Enacting SCOTUS reform will be a tough fight, but a necessary one if we’re going to have a functioning democracy.

My mom, aunt, and grandmother are voting ‘yes’

.@NYCMayor gave these uneducated, dangerous, disgusting people press passes They said: "His children are better off without him; they need to learn to not be like their dad and enjoy the blood money, kids!" "I don't give a flying fuck that he died...I liked it." "It's not like we don't understand heroic violence...i mean, why do we protect the 2nd amendment?"
