[ashokan farewell on the fiddle] me, in a colonel sanders accent: dearest wife, i am writing to you from the front where no man ought to be made to go. the war on christmas started early this year, the first day of october. ev'ry year, i surely do wonder if they'll start in sept — PolitiTweet.org

folks could you do me a favor and drag @MattBruenig for saying melania has a point about "christmas related labor" being garbage — PolitiTweet.org

@ArchbishopMark I have a question: is it possible that you and @BishopUmbers can make me an honorary parishioner of Australia? — PolitiTweet.org

if you'd like, you can donate to @nilmdtsHQ, a nonprofit that pays professional photographers to capture portraits of stillborn children and their families so that their parents can memorialize them, and, yes, show them off — just like any other parents. https://t.co/FeIii3zq42 — PolitiTweet.org

greek orthodox church by my house having a six day greek food fest...we're talking homemade food folks, cooked by greek grandmas...this is the most dastardly attempt to drag me away from rome yet, and it's pretty compelling — PolitiTweet.org

@AliceFromQueens @mtracey @ZaidJilani the question could also become whether provoking people to observe that it is indeed a thing by asserting that it's a mirage based on falsified statistics promulgated by the FBI is, in fact, contributing to the alarmism — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Bruenig @ebruenig

@AliceFromQueens @mtracey @ZaidJilani that's all i was saying — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Bruenig @ebruenig

@ZaidJilani @AliceFromQueens @mtracey you should read publications aimed at mothers: there is a shitload of coverage of freakish ways people die in bath tubs, cribs, cots, beds, couches, armchairs, refrigerators, etc. i just didn't take mike to be complaining about proportions of coverage, but coverage itself — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Bruenig @ebruenig

@AliceFromQueens @mtracey @ZaidJilani if what was meant here was 'there should be more coverage of the 2020 homicide spike,' then i wouldn't have replied! or if what was meant was: 'the media is too alarmed about racist violence and not alarmed enough about other forms of violence,' also another matter! — PolitiTweet.org

@ZaidJilani @mtracey ok so it sounds like: -it is getting media coverage -it is getting attention from politicians, namely the president -the problem is the solution proposed by the trump administration is too soft — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Bruenig @ebruenig

@mtracey @AliceFromQueens @ZaidJilani right, i mean — it's kind of unusual! i'm so puzzled by this — my argument isn't that white supremacist groups should get 100% of coverage and rising crime should get 0%, it's that white supremacist violence isn't a made-up phenomenon perpetuated by morons — PolitiTweet.org

@ecc1989 @ZaidJilani @mtracey the homicide spike began after the george floyd protests? — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Bruenig @ebruenig

@ZaidJilani @mtracey i think it's probably because local crime isn't usually a national political story, right? — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Bruenig @ebruenig

@mtracey they move contraband, especially guns, and function a little like prisons in that they're networks where people who are already prepared to commit crimes learn how to do them more effectively. cf this recent bombing attempt, following the mcveigh playbook: https://t.co/mVdkU1i4rn — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Bruenig @ebruenig

@mtracey i don't consider myself very feebleminded, and i'm annoyed by the permanent crisis tone in media, but i interviewed a lot of people for a forthcoming piece and it does seem there's concerning stuff here...these groups don't have to do kristallnacht to be dangerous — PolitiTweet.org
