“If God's the game that you're playing
Well, we must get more acquainted
Because it has to be so lonely
To be the only one who's holy”
Do you have a favorite lyric? Which and why?

This will be especially funny if the top two in the primary are, for example, Pritzker and Newsom. What are they supposed to have done about Biden? Why would they have known anything about his condition?
The national press desperately misses having Biden around to beat up, so they are vowing to make the 2028 Dem primary all about Biden ... and having the gall to pretend that it's *voters* who want this.

Please outline, in exact detail, what you would be doing differently if you had exactly as much power as Chris Van Hollen.

New from conservative military geniuses: Having a numerical advantage is cheating.

Don’t ask how we managed to successfully land at Normandy (though they probably think we were the bad guys there anyway).

In fairness to those young Rs, Kirk’s own wife basically made a joke out of it
Imo what happened here is they thought that Kirk was actually the youth whisperer and all the young soft R support was because of people who loved him personally

Turns out that group are allergic to solemnity (esp when forced) and immediately turned his death into a big joke
books about this era are going to heavily feature the failed Horst Wesseling of Kirk. it was the first place where the regime wanted something, got elite buy-in, and it blew up in their face

“Don’t give them what they want.”
Yesterday, these incompetent fucks were just going door-to-door in a neighborhood near my house at 8:30 in the morning. School buses were driving through trying to pick up kids, people were out walking their dogs, and people were taking out their trash cans.

It’s worth it to make a distinction of whether “he can’t do that” means he lacks the legal power to do it (likely untrue, the courts will probably give it to him) or whether it means he lacks the logistical capacity to do it (likely true, they don’t have the people, as Minneapolis is showing).
We are ten years into this. Troops are on the streets of an American city brutalizing people. It is time to stop responding to Trump's most authoritarian ambitions with "well he can't do that."

Federalism is bad in a lot of ways but in this case it means you wouldn’t just need a federal coup to cancel the elections, you’d need about 25-30 state-level ones as well.
the question to ask about this is, okay, he wants to cancel the midterms. how does he get the VA state board of elections to cancel the midterms? how does he get the georgia board of elections to do it? how does he convince republican house members to quit their jobs and give up their paychecks?
Trump says a lot of deranged shit, but, per this Reuters article — and the threats of invoking the Insurrection Act in Minnesota this morning — he is very clearly exploring how to cancel the midterms.

Any of them are more than welcome to show any kind of leadership but no one has since Trump took office.
It amazes me that so-called "serious folk" in the US are failing to realise that the next two generations of European policymakers are going to be incredibly more inclined towards anti-Americanism than any generation since the interwar era.

Meanwhile Shawn Fain continues to dance for Trump
“I don’t feel as though fate looks upon you often, and when it does, you better be ready to seize the opportunity,” said TJ Sabula, the UAW worker who heckled President Trump and who Trump flipped off and cursed at. “And today I think I did that.”

Trump makes obscene gesture, mouths expletive at Detroit factory heckler
A cellphone video captured Trump twice mouthing “f--- you” and raising his middle finger toward a line worker shouting at him inside the Ford factory.

A big part of the Project 2025 hustle was the people associated with it being aggrieved when Trump distanced himself from it. Part of the kayfabe is people getting mad.
Watching people losing their minds about Dem rhetoric on ICE and it's like people don't remember how Project 2025 played in the election just over a year ago.

I don't want my politicians lying to people but not talking about your policy goals doesn't mean you don't have those policy goals

This is a road to jury nullification too. Good luck finding 12 rockheads to convict even if you can convince a grand jury.
This is the kind of shit I mean when I say this is unsustainable. Something has to break. If this is really what they’re pursuing, charges against protesters for one of them having been murdered, I feel like the current protests will be absolutely dwarfed.

Look, it’s very important to know that Powell being fired will not doing anything lasting to the markets, who are basically totally on board with Trump.

Said this after the tariffs:
An economic crash is not coming to save us. That doesn’t mean we won’t win though.

I don’t even think this is true (for once). Dems got called pansies for being against (not really) Vietnam and the Cold War more broadly and have never gotten over it despite three generations cycling through Congress in the interim.
The Dems’ fear of being called a bunch of pansies for not supporting an illegal military operation once again proves that it’s just gender all the way down

I mean, it is about oil insofar as Trump thinks he’s doing the oil companies a favor and even the oil companies saying they don’t want it hasn’t dissuaded him.
The amount of “this is clearly about oil” posting across all platforms as story after story comes out where the oil industry is saying that the oil isn’t worth extracting is making me feel a little insane

I think we’re going to look back on today as the day that Gallego’s inevitable presidential campaign begins. He had a plan immediately and came out and executed it.
FOX NEWS: What are your expectations when you get briefings from senior Trump administration officials in the coming days?

GALLEGO: Well, they're just gonna lie

The problem for the Trump people that they haven’t grasped yet is that it’s impossible to look cool with your arms folded while wearing a suit. You have to take the jacket off to look cool if you want to cross your arms like that.

Has Juan Gauido said literally anything about this? 5 years ago, he would’ve been in charge by now.
Their messaging is so fucking incoherent. Maduro was an illegitimate leader who lost in 2024, which is why we're replacing him with his VP instead of the person who won in 2024. We did this to stop fentanyl, which is why he's indicted for cocaine.

We're also occupying Venezuela via Zoom call.
January 3, 2026 at 9:24 PM
The picture coming together here is that Rodriguez made some deal with the US to give up Maduro and permit US oil investment if the US let her stay in charge.

Trump might have blown it by basically tweeting it out.
This uhh lady down there who Marco had a really nice phone chat with is gonna do it for us. Won’t cost a thing.

This was my first thought. If this is the state of play now, we should just do this to as many members of the fascist internationale as possible in 2029.

Jeffries thinks Trump did a good thing without the correct process
Reading this as anything other than a denunciation of Trump is tendentious in the extreme.
