"voters in Illinois are more or less disenfranchised"

No they're not, you're just a fucking moron.
I keep thinking about how these morons keep using their blue state residency as an excuse not to vote democratic, without a hint of irony or dissonance as to why their state is blue in the first place.

King Trump told Chuck Schumer that he was prepared to drop his freeze on billions of dollars in funding for a major New York infrastructure project, in exchange for renaming Penn Station and Washington’s Dulles International Airport after Trump.

The offer was swiftly rejected by Schumer.

“Positioning himself to the left of Clinton on healthcare” gives the entire thing away because there was no way in hell to think he was to the left of the author of Hillarycare unless you, like Chris, Ryan and Brian, were letting misogyny guide how you judged politicians’ positions and sincerity

A good thing you can do about this instead of dooming is Google “how to become a poll observer in [your town]”

The White House press secretary just said she "can't guarantee" that ICE won't be around polling locations in November.

‘Your vote is meaningless’ is exactly what doomers will try to tell you when *they've* decided *you* should give up on democracy; because they care more about their emotional support posting, than actual coalition building.
The best way to farm clout as a leftist is to pull a Hasan and say Dems suck. The best way to farm clout as a centrist is to pull a Bari and say Dems suck. The best way to farm clout as a conservative is to pull a Charlie and say Dems suck. The best way to farm clout as a fascist is, you guessed it,

I have a decent amount of Boston-area journalists following me so I'll put out my plea to not use terms like "immigration enforcement" or "immigration crackdown" if we get an ICE surge. We know exactly what's happening: The Trump regime is targeting a region that has been opposed to its policies.

Seeing this passage again and once Epstein was not selling girls on the dark web but he was demanding they have sex with other men and I guess for these guys that was just "they're just around."

Everyone of these people is a ghoul.
This level of apologia (from Megan McArdle in a podcast with Josh Barro and Ross Douthat) is fucking appalling. Idk what else there is to say.

This is a remarkable @nytimes.com split screen:

A huge 3,526 word + photos profile on Sen Britt who "can't stop thinking about the boy ICE detained"

But Rep Jaoquin Castro- who actually got Liam Ramos out of detention & back home- gets no interview, no pix, just 116 words inside a story. WOW.

The Reverse Spider-man; with great power, comes no responsibility.
This is what I meant by saying the wheels were going to come off of any pretension of having a society. The propagandists to the powerful are saying to others in power (who are the audience), but openly where the rest of us can see them say it, that pedophile sex trafficking is good and normal now.
very weird “I am Spartacus” thing happening right now with the worst people on earth

What is being communicated here is elite barbarism. That no one, especially the powerful, has any obligation to their fellow human; that the elite are right to take advantage of that by predating on you one way or another, and that no one with any power to enforce the law is coming to save you.

Just absolutely wild how many people don’t realize they’re arguing from the premise that the ways Donald Trump has degraded the functioning of our institutions are good and correct.
