Are they *really* "big ideas"?
Or are they just bad ideas people have historically and easily dismissed, only to be dusted off, lacquered with a veneer of intellectual (and that term is used loosely) rigor, and shopped to an audience that wishes to have their absurd, poisonous agendas legitimized?

Good @mattpolprof.bsky.social review of @lkatfield.bsky.social's great new book on the intellectual roots of MAGA, with a focus on the sheer opportunism of MAGA intellectuals who opportunistically glommed on to Trump:

Big Ideas, No Scruples
To understand this troubling moment in American democracy, look at the history and making of the New Right.

Texas, Florida, and Georgia are now in play for the Democrats.
The Trump admin says it aims to file 100-200 denaturalization cases per month, a huge increase. But these cases are hard to file and win, and require a lot of DOJ resources, and the DOJ is incredibly stretched thin already. So we’ll see; I have serious doubts about their ability to do this.
What this will mean, in practice, that if you are deemed an enemy of the administration, they will pore through your citizenship application paperwork looking for some reason to retroactively disqualify you.

100% certain this administration is placing travel bans on countries that Trump deems "producing women who don't give me boners".
NEW: President Trump is expanding the previous 19-country travel ban to a whopping 39 countries (plus the Palestinian Authority), and appears to expand a block on legal immigration to now include spouses, children, and parents of U.S. citizens, who were previously exempted.

if this is accurate it would be a worse special election result for republicans in a congressional stronghold than any special election under trump 1.0 (other than possibly roy moore)
the @upshot.nytimes.com "Technically You Can't Call It A Needle If We Didn't Program Needle Graphics" projection is sitting at R+2.9, right about in line with my eyeballing of EDay results compared to the votehub model www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

This is mental illness.
Trump: "They had the line. The people had no idea. So I made the french fries. The guy was really good. He had a great wrist. He's going like, 'Sir -- nyha. Hhhhuh.' It was not that easy but I got it sort of finally. Not the greatest. But pouring it in."

You know who would be a great candidate for the Penn State head football coaching job now that James Franklin has been fired?
Mark DeRosa.
That is not any dumber than the folks on Atlanta's 680 The Fan trying to push DeRosa to be the next #Braves manager.

CBS News will now be a megaphone for the country's most vicious crusader against free speech, and the most relentless propagandist of far-right disinformation.
