The tone of the 1776 Project is hilarious. It's like a Lost Cause history textbook from a 1950s Charleston boys school, the Phyllis Schlafly Report, and your all-caps Qanon Uncle have ABSOLUTELY HAD IT and got together to tell us WHAT's WHAT -- and how!

Happening right now: Border Patrol at SFO is detaining two siblings from Haiti—ages 9 and 19. Both had valid visas. ICE says it will separate the terrified 9 year old from his brother. And send him to a refugee shelter in Texas with no clear date when he can get out.

Let's discuss the environmental cost of bitcoin. Because despite all the push for sustainable and green investment in the tech sector, there's a giant smoldering Chernobyl sitting at the heart of Silicon Valley which a lot of investors would prefer you remain quiet about. 🧵 (1/)

MLK had the best last speech of anyone who has ever lived. His last sentences and the walk-off is so epic. America loves to lionize politicians like long dead presidents, but not a single one of them has anything on MLK in terms of being truly great
