Aaron's Bluesky Activity – July 10, 2026
OpenAI Under Fire
Aaron engaged with breaking news about serious misconduct allegations against OpenAI, reposting both a TechCrunch item quoting a source who claimed Apple "lacks visibility into what's been happening behind closed doors at OpenAI, where such misconduct is normalized and exemplified by leadership," and a reaction calling the situation potentially devastating for the company. The TechCrunch piece is here.
Trump Administration and Democratic Opposition
Aaron was attentive to several threads involving the Trump administration and its political landscape. He reposted commentary noting that Trump's net job approval of -25 is worse than Biden ever reached, alongside the argument that mainstream media is failing to cover him as the terminally unpopular figure the numbers suggest — and may even be tacitly enabling his authoritarian tendencies. He also reposted criticism of the 5th Circuit's ruling ending in-state tuition for undocumented Texas residents, which was framed as dismantling one of Texas's better bipartisan policy achievements. A New Republic piece on how Missouri's state takeover of St. Louis police is effectively defunding other city services also caught his attention. On the Democratic side, Aaron reposted a post arguing that criticism of AOC is rooted in base misogyny, and surfaced an older post about Rep. Haley Stevens appearing favorable toward an ICE detention facility — seemingly relevant to her ongoing Senate campaign.
Courts, Law, and Accountability
Aaron posted his own frustration about the lack of sanctions for attorney misconduct in courts that otherwise impose harsh punishments, framing it as a systemic failure of judicial accountability. He also reposted commentary on the logical absurdity of the unitary executive theory — specifically the contradiction that Congress can legislate but supposedly cannot constrain how the president executes those very laws.
Race, Climate, and Other Domestic Issues
Aaron reposted alarming data on Black student admissions to New York City's Stuyvesant High School — down from 10 in 2024 to just 3 in 2026. On climate, he reposted criticism of European governments' silence during ongoing heatwaves, treating them as mere weather rather than symptoms of climate change. He also shared a New York Times piece on the Trump administration's rollback of anti-smoking campaigns, with the accompanying commentary that the tobacco industry has captured the current government. Finally, Aaron reposted a pointed observation about the fracture many American Jews experienced on the left following the October 7 attacks and what the author described as subsequent denial that the celebrations of civilian killings ever occurred.
