We can secure our border and fix the immigration system to be orderly, fair, safe, and humane.

And we can do all this while keeping lit the torch of liberty that has led generations of immigrants to America.

I have a new op-ed out in The Daily Beast about why Kevin McCarthy is losing the speaker vote so badly, and although I'm a little harsh on him (okay, pretty harsh), I don't think I'm wrong.

5 January 1858 | A Hungarian Jew, Yakow Heizler, was born in Apostag. He was a soldier. During the war he lived in Ujpest.

In June 1944 he was deported to Auschwitz and murdered in a gas chamber.

One of some 430,000 Hungarian Jews deported to Auschwitz. Learn about their fate: lekcja.auschwitz.org/en_6_dep_

Went out in the rain to photograph this pair of rock-hopping crystal wyverns!

Has anyone tried turning the House of Representatives off and then back on?

Holy shit 🚨
Mike Flynn protests way too much that he doesn’t know what QAnon or β€œQ” is and then admits β€œit’s a damn good psyop.”

I have been saying this for two and a half years. Thanks Q.

I keep saying journalists should leave Twitter and use Mastodon, which is better for them in every way. At TechDirt I've posted a somewhat lengthy why-and-how: techdirt.com/2023/01/04/journa

Da Ist der Faun!
Der Platz fΓΌr dieses besondere Kunstwerke Ist definitiv der falsche, auch wenn die Massen es nicht interessiert.

Oh, btw: I bought johnmastodon.com.

I think I'm going to use it as a Mastodon server recommendation site. I'm imagining "John Mastodon" as a clippy-style avatar to help you pick a server.

If you’re a democratic strategist who thinks this is a good time to sell out our people and put this dysfunction on us, go back to the green room and take a nap.

After 9 rounds, no wonder Republicans don't believe elections work.

We are essentially witnessing a domestic terrorist hostage situation unfolding in congress.
McCarthy will no doubt continue to sell whatever is left of his soul to the sedition caucus.
While amusing on some levels, also becoming increasingly dangerous for America.
