The press is giving Trump exactly what he wants by treating his ever-changing abortion rhetoric as at last a clue to his real beliefs. He gets the only thing he cares about — an ego boost — and the GOP gets cover for their pursuit of more abortion bans.

There's a post-Roe edge to abortion politics that is about more than hating women — it’s about the belief that abortions are fundamentally emasculating to the men who finally achieved their rightful domination, only to have the thrill of subjugation challenged again and again at the ballot box.

Wrote this for fellow Paxton-watchers while we wait on the Texas Senate to deliberate on his impeachment. Whatever else happens, the Paxton trial has been an incredible display of white male mediocrity and desperate thirst for power.

Much has been made of the "end of clout" for the biggest Tweeters, but for independent journalists, Twitter was a vital utility. Its swift decline has been a real loss for small and medium-sized media outlets, indie writers and academics, and the public overall.

#Twitter was one of the most important tech utilities for #reporters to break stories and deliver #real-time news, until Elon Musk bought the company. He not only killed the #SocialMedia platform, he destroyed one of our most vital #news outlets.
