"It’s truly an extraordinary moment in our nation’s legal and political history: two prosecutions resulting in two guilty verdicts by separate juries, one against an ex-president, and another against a sitting president’s son."

@georgetakei One is a private citizen who has never been or will run for public office, and therefore I give no fucks about it and neither should the press.

@georgetakei this is actually a typical dumb celebrity workout — there is no real reason to do silly movements like these when training, other than trying to look cool and/or not knowing any better.

ByteDance unlikely to sell TikTok, as former Trump official plots purchase

@arstechnica It’s bipartisan for good reason - TikTok is compelled to allow the CCP access to anything it wants. And they already used it to spy on US journalists. China bans US apps, why would we allow a CCP spy app? They can avoid an expulsion by selling to a non-CCP entity.
