Kevin Roberts put a big flashing sign on himself reading "I'm a Nazi thug excited to use violence to crush people who disagree with me" last year when he said, "This is a Second American Revolution and it will be bloodless if the Left allows it to be."

IOW Submit to the Fuhrer or else.

Shankar puts a lot emphasis on the idea that what ICE is doing has, in his view, democratic legitimacy. "I think a lot of the policies, a lot of things that people are struggling with right now in the U.S. were voted on at the ballot box. What ICE is doing was voted on at the ballot box."

Sankar: You should talk to Louis about that.

I would give you the other side of that, which is that I think a lot of the policies, a lot of things that people are struggling with right now in the U.S. were voted on at the ballot box. What ICE is doing was voted on at the ballot box.

Douthat: So Palantir — again, not that you speak for everyone at Palantir — but Palantir is more comfortable with mass deportations in the context of a world where Donald Trump campaigned on mass deportations and won, than it might be in a world where he had not mentioned deportations at all, and then asked Palantir to design a mass deportation–abetting software.

Sankar: What I’m saying is, like, the people voted on this.

Douthat: Right.

This infuriates me. While breast cancer is much more rare among men, they DO get it. I have a friend who's a male breast cancer survivor. Making people starve/die bc political ideology is what fascists do. #BreastCancerAwareness

Citing a Trump executive order banning "gender ideology," the VA is withholding coverage and treatment for male veterans with breast cancer, an increasing condition among veterans exposed to toxic chemicals during service. 100 male veterans a year are diagnosed with breast cancer.

A Department of Veterans Affairs memo obtained by ProPublica erects new roadblocks to care for veterans with the rare but deadly cancer. The agency cites no new science but relies on an executive orde...

Congress has provided a contingency plan for SNAP to keep the program going for years in case of a shut down. The USDA sneakily took the plan down. Now blue states are suing to continue benefits for their constituents.

One compelling conclusion in the report: Biden admin was reluctant to pick “fights worth having” and settled for incremental gains out of “risk aversion.”

Q: One theory on how you might try to serve a 3rd term is that you could run at the vice president

TRUMP: Yeah, I'd be allowed to do that. But I would rule that out because it's too cute.

Do not normalize any headline or article that refuses to call out Trump's proposal to run again in 2028 and treats it like a political game.

Call out all these polls and hypotheticals.

This man cannot run again. Like we've said, he will try to stay in power until death.

Heartened by the return of one of the classic Trump bits, which is when he sways faintly and says "I'd like to see low IQ [person of color he saw on TV] try to pass the test that's regularly administered to me by medical professionals, the famous unbeatable Test To Determine Extent Of Brain Trauma,"

This is a wonderful, generous offer by them to help government employees in the DMV who are without a paycheck due to the GOP shutting down the government rather than releasing the Epstein Files.
