American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

The obsessive wokeness panic is about elite labor market competition and prestige. People use a lot of fancy words to obscure this, and offer some substantive criticisms as well, but that’s ultimately its driving force.

IMPORTANT: The Dutch invest €595 million annually on urban biking, resulting in €19 BILLION saved in public health care costs alone. That’s how smart governments do the math on investing in better mobility.
Let’s be clear— it wastes public money to NOT do it.

AOC: And they are able to radicalize a generation of young boys in particular, away from healthy masculinity and into an insecure masculinity that requires the domination of others who are poorer, browner, darker, or a different gender than them.

The Wizard Nebula (Sharpless 142) in the constellation of Cepheus. This region of star formation is being energized primarily by a massive spectroscopic binary system called DH Cephei. The stars in this system are young, near the start of the main sequence and are a source of X-ray emissions. 🔭

The biggest reason I can't take this opinion seriously is because I can guarantee that Mr. Nichols has not written about the dehumanizing language toward trans people all year by Republican politicians. To me, that is far more profane than VP Harris or Mr. Schumer uttering the word "fuck" publicly.

David Ellison, the head of Paramount/CBS, is a Nepo Baby son of billionaire psycho Larry Ellison, who just bought TikTok and wants to buy Warner Bros/Discovery (CNN, HBO).
He's the biggest private donor to Israel, hard core right wing Zionist and Trump supporter.

One of the biggest problems with establishment Dems like yourself is that you still don’t understand that he could kill somebody on 5th Avenue and not lose a single voter.
This is more blatantly true today than it ever was in the past.

Border Czar Tom Homan was caught by the FBI accepting bribes - on camera - to deliver government contracts in exchange for $50,000 in cash.
Pam Bondi knew.
Kash Patel knew.
Emil Bove knew.
And they made the investigation go away.
A corrupt attempt to conceal brazen graft.

There should be no forgiveness for Ezra Klein, Gavin Newsom, or anyone else who whitewashed Charlie Kirk's image in the wake of his death. They participated in a cleanup job that is facilitating Kirk's status as a "martyr." They have had a hand in the harm the administration will do in Kirk's name.
