It’s -2000 degrees below zero. You just flashbanged yourself twenty feet from the front desk. Three hours sleep cause locals who hate you bang garbage cans outside your room all night. The Home2Suits has fallen and you’re not getting that signing bonus for another 4.5 years. Ass. It’s all ass, dude.
Minneapolis, MN -

Very developing situation here. FPS agents ran into the hotel. Tear gas deployed. Hotel patrons forced to put their hands up. One agent’s nose bloodied.

This is how it’s done. Total control. Not one shred of power sharing with Republicans.

Top Youngkin appointees resign

Spanberger should be able to easily replace them given Dem trifecta

Again it is something that people in previous eras have commented on but I still find it just astonishing to witness in my own: fascism is somehow the natural ideology of loser men, just all of our most pathetic and contemptible instincts rendered into a worldview.

Trump is clearly not well.

At a meeting with oil industry CEO’s Trump suddenly interrupts his introductory remarks, gets up and looks out the window and starts talking about his ballroom. Trump then realizes his mistake and says “unusual time to look”, and sits back down to continue.

The vaccine autism thing is bullshit but even if you believed it, it seems incredibly fucked up to then believe that raising child death rates is some sort of worthwhile trade-off to reduce autism rates

it's darkly humorous to listen to Trump and his cronies reference the fact that Maduro was indicted in SDNY as evidence he's a dictator and overall bad guy

I want to see Democrats doing this to conservative institutions and organizations if they get a trifecta again. The Right needs to feel the boot they gave us this stuff can't remain asymmetric forever.

The first answer: "In this country those honors are conferred by consensus after a person's death."

The second: "I'm not particularly worried about anyone who thinks a man who spiritually and financially bankrupted us is worthy of his name on a building."
I doubt that any Democrat in the '28 mix would leave Trump's name on buildings. Questions are how they talk about taking it off, and what they say when reporters ask some version of "but wouldn't that further divide the country?"
There's a series of things (like the ballroom, Gulf of America) that we're going to have to *undo* the moment this guy is out of office.
And yet I can already hear future Democrat presidents saying "I'm focused on the people's work, not the knucklehead stuff" and just leave this man's shit up.

A West Virginia poll shows 70% approve of the Affordable Care Act but 70% disapprove of Obamacare. It’s telling how many people still don’t realize they’re the same law.

like his complaint is literally that there are people who believe in things, believe those things are right, and believe in those things regardless of whether they are popular.

I think part of What's Going On with billionaires is that the daily friction of interacting with normal people is part of what anchors people to the real world, and once you have enough money to buy your way out of the friction you can knock down a load-bearing column propping up your sanity.

Conservative Christian Men: "I'll kill any [derogatory name for transperson] who follows my daughter into the bathroom, but I won't got to the cops if anyone from my church rapes my daughter because Pastor Steve said I'll go to hell if I do."
America is a Christian nation (derogatory).
Leaders of a Minnesota church community didn’t report a parishioner they knew had sexually abused girls for year.

They told his victims that once sins were “washed away in the blood of reconciliation,” they could never speak of them again.

Truly chilling, from @jlussenhop.bsky.social & Andy Mannix

Sean is right. We were too lenient after 1865. No sense doing it again in 2025.
We don't need to immediately invite these people in. We need to play up Trump as a false prophet. Break their spirits and destroy their will to fight/vote.
