The only appropriate response to this is impeachment and removal from office. Every moment the political press spends spinning out theories about 2026 and immigration polling is a minute they are not spending asking Republicans in Congress about their plans to enforce the rule of law

One thing that’s been wild to observe now that the masks are off is how cartoonishly over the top racist and misogynistic a bunch of these guys are.

Behavior that if I saw in a movie I’d think was too silly to be real is now just our lives experience with tech and political elites.
