    Cornell West and Sarah Silverman are smoking the same shit that makes your tweets incoherent.

    Not to mention he’s got a blue check so he could go over the character limit to be able to write this roller coaster.

    You can’t even be mad at this. It’s poetry.

    In fact, I’m already imagining a guy getting mad at this, and I’m getting mad at them.

      He isn’t getting played, he is playing himself.

      Lenin took money from Germany, didn’t mean that he defended the humanity of the Kaiser as a staunch anti-Tsarist or whatever.

          The point is that you can take the bag and not lick the arse of whomever gave it to you, but Cornell West managed to not only fumble the bag, as a ‘jazz man’, but still decided to defend them.

            In politics, you can’t really. Especially left wing politics.

            Harlan didn’t even bother to go through a 501c3 and try to hide it. Could have fine that, but he clearly wanted to do some weird “I own you” stuff. From Cornell’s perspective, an outsider politician who needs cash, it probably does seem unfair that he has to give a major contribution back. But he does. Unless he wants to be associated with Clarence Thomas.

    The tragic reaction of the people in Palestine was regrettable but understandable in much the same way that my eating my roommates last mallomar was predictable if unfortunate when one considers that she had left it for a week already and it was drying out. Nonetheless as someone who enjoys backpack rap from the early 2000s I will be buying her another box #onward

    I love honest unhinged tweets from politicians. This gave me a chuckle and brighten my day. It is legitimately entertaining, probably the reason why so many people were entertained by Trump’s twitter account as well.

    We follow politicians on social media for entertainment. Imagine unironically following standard politician like Obama, AOC, Bernie, Biden, DeSanctis, etc. they all so goddamn boring
