Hobbyist in Stancil-thought (argue with the weirdos in the comments so they're not the only voice anybody sees). With less friendly fire and NIMBY takes tho

People keep saying I'm Will Stancil's alt, and honestly I'm considering trying to subtly feed that because I'm reasonably sure they'll actually believe it, and I think it'd be very funny for Stancil to have to publicly go "no I don't know nor am I my own cheap knockoff account"

JFK was killed by Lee Harvey Oswald, acting alone.
My first political memory - exactly 62 years ago right now, a 4-year-old boy trying to understand his mom's tears - is still the biggest event in my lifetime. We still (IMO) don't *really* know who killed JFK, but we know the public's trust was shattered. It's a straight line to today's mess

The barstool people threw a bitchfit when Illinois proposed taxing individual bets and turns out the target constituency (young men) aren’t that politically engaged and aren’t going to lobby politicians so they should be ignored and tax away

Features of a nuclear blast (1.6Mt) that you don't normally see in archive films: shockwave from 40 miles away knocking people to the ground and shattering windows... as well as the enormous dust and ash cloud long after.

This is one of the more unique nuclear test films I've ever seen.
Here is an impressive, declassified Soviet film of the RDS-37 test, including a scene showing four men in Kurchatov, the administrative secret city about 40 miles east of the test site, being knocked to the ground by the explosion’s powerful, rapidly-moving shockwave (which also shattered windows).

I wonder how efficient this spending is. Elections are like transit miles, how many you get per dollar (or million) is what really counts
In the past decade, billionaires have been more empowered than ever before to spend money to influence American elections.

Here are the billionaires who make up the top 20 political spenders:

The group has spent nearly $5 billion on elections since 2015.

the occam’s razor explanation for greene’s behavior all year is and always has been that she is a maga true believer who increasingly thinks trump and his cabinet have betrayed the movement, and she’s right
“trump is ecstatic to meet the muslim socialist immigrant mayor of new york while MAGA’s strongest soldier from georgia-14 resigns in disgust” is a fucking coalition-breaking disaster for the hard right
no, it’s fucking terrible for trump, lol

what i suspect here is that for Trump himself, accusations of fascism are viewed as "keyfabe" by either side
During his visit to the White House, NYC Mayor-elect Mamdani was asked about a recent interview in which he called President Trump a fascist. Mamdani began to answer the question before Trump jokingly cut him off.

It's felt really good to be a Dem these last few days, which is nice. 2026 is looking winnable and a morale boost going into it seems good for us

Plus it's just nice to get a string of good news for fuckin' once

Marge Greene announces she is resigning from Congress, that she doesn’t want to go through a brutal primary against a Trump backed opponent, and says Trump has treated her like a battered wife and has been hateful to her and is trying to destroy her.

Trump also just posted these photos to Truth Social, including the one with Mamdani standing next to a portrait of FDR. Trump mentioned Mamdani asked if he could have his picture taken there.

"It's an amazing portrait in the cabinet room," Trump said. "So he's a big fan of the New Deal, I guess..."
