If you want to understand American men who idolize Trump, talk to Mexican men who idolize narcos. The distance helps you be objective and the energy is the same

Why is everybody on social media acting like they’re surprised what Third Way is saying and seems shocked they would express positions they’ve held since the 1980s? Yes we know they believe all these things, because that literally is what they do, but Manchin and Sinema are no longer in Congress.

How to blow Newsmax minds with facts to prove one thing about Donald Trump's disastrous diplomacy.
He's losing control of the White House in front of everyone.
First, Elon Musk and now JD Vance.

So, I am going to be honest with everyone here, over the past couple years I have had a bit of a personal evolution on trans issues. I have come to a place of *unequivocal* support for trans people. I would like to share my thinking as I hope it will prove useful.

As a rule, I try to remember that people who just go off on you with range on the road, in a workplace or on social media do not spare their families and intimidates that same rage. It lets me take it less personally.

What is going on here? Why does MAGA hate cancer research?
The Trumpists don’t look at a specific budget item or topic - they are engaged in a comprehensive assault against what they have identified as their enemy. In response, we must also develop a holistic view of their political project.

Termination notices going out this afternoon to more than 300 employees of the National Cancer Institute. Access likely ends today. Four weeks paid leave and that’s it.

We are in the midst of a coup. Here are the two basic principles of anti-coup defense, from Gene Sharp’s “The Anti-Coup”
“If both legitimacy and cooperation are denied, the putsch may die of political starvation.”

This is 100% why the "weird" attack line was so powerful: all these right-wing weirdos want is to be considered the default.

I agree it’s a mutual abdication of leadership, between the Dems who fail to inspire and the critics who respond with nihilism. At the end of the day, the undocumented immigrant, the trans woman, the Gazan etc has grounds to rage at virtually everybody in the world, for failing them.

This is not about opposing Trump and the GOP agenda.
This is about fighting for the future and what can be.

Interestingly, the number one predictor of support for MAGA is having grown up under an authoritarian parenting style. I heard that from @michaelhobbes.bsky.social

At the time, everyone, including Republicans, understood how bad it was. Then, brick by brick, they built a foundation of lies to justify doing what they know, deep down, to be wrong. Trump betrayed the country. And so do they.

Apparently some progressives are annoyed with Jon Favreau right now. The reasons are vague and I don’t think anyone doing it can clearly articulate their beef other than “we decided he’s bad.” One thing Jon Favreau never does, but they do, is single people out for abuse online.
