This is dishonest. As many of you know, I used “false claim” way more often than “lie” with Trump, especially at the beginning; I even did a 2018 piece about my vocab caution. thestar.com/amp/news/world… By the end, I “firehosed” about his “lies” because there was a firehose of lies.



A little of what I've been working on since I left Crain's New York holeintheheadreview.com/txtv2/matthew-…


In case you’re wondering why people are going on TV relentlessly attacking Biden for his courageous decision to leave Afghanistan when no other president would, here’s one glimpse as to why. War is addictive for the few who reap its profits, while the rest of us foot the bill.

Joe Rogan: I'm not putting that COVID vaccine in my body! Who knows what it could do? Also Joe Rogan: I got COVID so I took monoclonal antibodies, Ivermectin, Little Debbie Cosmic Brownies, Z-Pak, some pills I found stuck in the cabinet, steroids, and long expired Crystal Pepsi.


Experiencing all this flooding in NYC right now and thinking about all the politicians who told me that pursuing a Green New Deal to adapt our nat’l infrastructure to climate change is “unrealistic” & “too expensive.” As if doing too little is the responsible, adult thing to do?





Experts who warned about authoritarianism were called alarmists. Experts who warned about Covid were called alarmists. Experts who warned about the courts and abortion were called alarmists. Experts who warned about climate were called alarmists. Perhaps it's actually alarming?
