Stephen Miller wrote that shit, probably in a rage, because it doesn't make a lick of sense.
Brooke Rollins: "SNAP is arguably just the beginning. The logical and inevitable end to where this all goes is the Democrats and the whole superstructure of constitutional government."
Perhaps sending Johnson and Vance out to lie to the public a hundred or so more times can turn these numbers around.

I'm somewhat astonished by the number of people who think that they can help build a different type of fascist movement that won't eventually come for them given their race, religion, or sexual orientation.
The cognitive dissonance required is remarkable.

The simple answer is their other options are worse.

If ICE agents begins harassing voters on the way to vote on Tuesday, we need local prosecutors to charge the ICE officers with state law crimes. We need to send a message for 2026 that they will be swiftly arrested.

Yes but there’s enough reality there to make these accusations seem credible
Clever to call all movement to the left "an embrace of civil rights." Beautifully elides everything from moving left in the Cold War and national defense to the ginormous social programs that Bill Clinton finally agreed to restrain.
"It's because of civil rights" is a comforting story.

And Bill Clinton was a Southern Democrat as well.
I guess here on Bluesky it's controversial to note that the Democrats, once the majority across this country, were reduced to national minority (in stages, from 1968, to 1980, to 2016) by moving left.
But if you'd rather think I'm just making Trump's point...well, whatever helps you cope.

I'm questioning this statement, "the left started to lose the public (who to this day don't see Reagan the same way they do.)"
Who is this *public* you speak of? Wouldn't the left be a subset of it?
This feels like the current Trump regime's feelings that Democrats aren't real Americans.

I don't know why more people aren't watching The Diplomat. It's such a satisfying old-school show, in the West Wing mold -- a completely engrossing political fantasy with real, fleshed-out characters & that old weekly-drama pace that I've really come to miss. And Kerri Russell *cooks*.

Mamdani’s family moved to NYC when he was seven, went to grade school & high school there. He literally represented Astoria in the state assembly for years. I think he’s figured it out by now.
So here's Andrew Cuomo reacting to Maria Bartiromo wondering if Mamdani will "change the look of New York" and have Muslim women "completely covered up," telling her that Mamdani "doesn't understand New York culture" because he has "dual citizenship" and "he's a citizen of Uganda."
What about a different race? Religion? Sexual orientation? Political views?

The Founders knew Congress - especially the House - was the backbone of U.S. democracy. It should be a huge story that Mike Johnson, serving Trump, has all but shut it down
