It's time I stop investing in this place. I dislike the word "toxic," but it perfectly describes the mean-spirited misinformation machine that is the demon-spawn of its owner. I'll check back occasionally. But let's chart a course to bluer skies: michaeljstern.bsky.social

My take on why so many people voted for such a bad man. I wrote this column for the last election. Sadly, it still holds true. usatoday.com/story/opinion/…

Trump picks incompetent loyalists for his Cabinet, and @CNN leads with "In Bold Move, Trump Picks Unorthodox Staff." The media is the problem. They helped him get elected and they are covering for him now.

Trump chose Mike Huckabee, who once said, “there’s really no such thing as a Palestinian,” as the new US ambassador to Israel, dealing an immediate blow to hope of a two-state solution. Hey progressives and Muslims who voted against Harris -- you showed her who's boss. 🤔

.@CNN is falling over itself kissing up to Trump. In a story discussing his horrific loyalist Cabinet picks, CNN's writer says this: "The president-elect is entitled to name who he wants to his Cabinet and team after the democratic legitimacy of his presidential election…

Hundreds of posters depicting Jewish faculty members as “wanted” were plastered across the University of Rochester campus Sunday night. The latest in antisemitism, in which Jews are portrayed as criminals - deserving to be rounded up and incarcerated. cnn.com/2024/11/12/us/…

Trump is going to fire generals who are not loyalists - turning the military into an enforcement arm of Trump. He's going to turn the military against American citizens . . . and it's terrifying. But eggs are expensive. newsweek.com/trump-creating…

Israel’s Netanyahu acknowledges pager attack, says he sees ‘eye-to-eye’ with Trump on Iran. But good job progressives and Muslims who wanted to punish Harris for being too supportive of Israel. cnn.com/2024/11/10/mid…

Here's what is going to happen: The progressives and Muslims who stayed home or cast a protest vote against Harris will not blame Trump for writing a blank check to Israel . . . they will blame Jewish Americans and surge antisemitic violence. Mark my words on this one.

America, you knew what you were buying. This election was not run by Nordstrom's. There's no returning him now. Get ready for the systematic destruction of U.S. democracy.

Special counsel Jack Smith and his team to resign before Trump takes office. The technical question: If Smith waits to get fired by Trump (my preference) will he be unable to complete his report? If that's the case, media should be highlighting that as the explanation.

Michigan congresswoman @RashidaTlaib declined to endorse Kamala Harris. Now Trump has appointed Mike Huckabee as ambassador to Israel, who said there's no such thing as a real Palestinian and will write a blank check to Israel. Good job. theguardian.com/us-news/2024/n…

BREAKING: Trump Wants Matt Gaetz As His Attorney General. Gaetz has been under investigation for his alleged involvement in sex trafficking, illicit drug use, dispensing favors to friends, and obstructing government. As a former DOJ attorney, this makes me want to vomit!

Hey @CNN, and other media, how are you going to twist yourself into knots to praise Trump appointing an alleged corrupt criminal to run the agency that investigates corrupt criminals?

We told you that if Trump gets into power he will not leave, despite the Constitutional limit of 2 terms. He dropped the seed today. Watch him water it until it becomes a full policy of his administration in which he refuses to leave the White House when his term is up.

BREAKING: Trump jokingly says he is not running again in 2028 unless House Republicans "figure something else out."
