An absurd gag, a monkey trick, an Irish bull, a childish joke. (He/him)

The one thing to remember - and it is absolutely crucial - is this: we put five million people in the street in one day. They have the surveillance apparatus, they have the goons, but they don't have The People. If we organize, we will win.
Looking for good container varieties of wheat.
Oddly enough, that sort of constitutes a test of whether he's really moved on from the place that he sent these from.
I don't think this holds up for another year though.

Epstein... Ballroom...
Epstein! Ballroom!
EPSTEIN BALLROOM!!
Then again, all the Musk fans signing up to beta test robot surgery could only be a net positive for the world.
And our habit of treating his crimes like just Donald-being-Donald sends a strong message to voters that they must not be crimes, because if they were, we'd be treating them as crimes. His trick is committing them in the open, which sets the stage for this bizarre situation.
Good: Jamie Raskin tells me he's formally demanding any/all internal communications between WH and DOJ on Trump's $230 million payoff.

More Dems should talk this way about Trump's criming. He's turning the presidency into a massive Bribe Delivery System.

Trump’s Vile New $230 Million Shakedown of DOJ Just Got Even Worse
It’s bad enough that Trump wants—and DOJ will likely fork over—this tribute payment. Now, get this: It can probably be done at first without even being revealed publicly.

In fact, a tattoo that gets you kicked out of the US military.
How is that an abomination? That is the apotheosis of sandwich excellence! I bow to this sandwich!
He can't even smile any more. Just the spent husk of a man. Good riddance to him.
Hey, he got one of his protégés all the way to DNI in the Trump regime, that's success right there.
I listened to Mark Kelly last night, defending this by talking about the need for bipartisan action to continue responsible governance, and it was infuriating. My dude - they are knocking down the White House. "Good government" is not on the table here, and it's alarming to hear you pretend it is.
When people mention that Trump used to be a Democrat, this is what that looked like.
wow. zohran brought one of cuomo’s accusers, charlotte bennett, to the mayoral debate. he asked cuomo what he would say to his 13 accusers of sexual harassment. cuomo said it takes “a certain level of maturity to work in government” and that the cases were resolved anyway. fucking scum.
No, for all his faults, Speer had more taste than that.
You don't see "the corrupt campaign finance system" as. Sanders-ese for the DNC? That's certainly how a significant portion of his faction understand it.
It's a form of narcissism - they believe they are the unique vanguard that understands The Will Of The People and so the only real barrier to utopia is an illegitimate and decadent elite.
No worries, I take no joy in this crap either.
If only we'd known about Cal Cunningham's infidelities before nominating him, we might not have had to rely on both Manchin's and Sinema's votes.
You know that saying things like "Bernie is the north star" doesn't make you sound like less of a cultist, right?
How is critiquing putative leftists for uncritically lionizing a dude with a Nazi tattoo and a professed admiration for both Josh Hawley and Jared Golden(!) "punching left?" It's trying to put a halt to foolish behavior that harms the left.
Yeah, that tracks. As a side note, all of his boosters should be down on their knees grateful that this is coming out now and not next October.
Well that's seared into my brain forever now, so thanks I guess...🫠

A mix of desperation, actual classism, and a need to boil everything down to a hero/villian.

They're desperate to claw back rural white votes but can't fathom a solution beyond get an avatar of the stereotype they have in their mind elected to point to.
