January 6 was like a much dumber version of Hitler’s Beer Hall Putsch and yet a plurality of American voters were like, Yeah, let’s give that guy the nuke codes again. An absolutely world historical debacle of societal ignorance. I’ll never understand it.

Well, at least the rest of the time the massive quantity of weapons in civilian hands is being used to prevent the tyrannical overreach of a domestic police state that detains and deports at will regardless of pretext or citizenship.

If you think the public at large is bad, you should come to my classroom sometime, I promise you it’s worse.
I encounter people who seem to have lost touch with the concept of being a physical presence in a three dimensional space. Their body being present in, say, a doorway, while they stare at their phone cannot occur to them. Everyone is now the only human who exists. Seems bad.
Can't remember if it was this bad before COVID but I'm seeing an alarming spreading of what I'll call Airport Behavior to other public places. Obliviousness to other people's existence, ineptitude at navigating the environment. "Is this your first time at the grocery store" type stuff

Whoa! Immigrants come here with nothing and the next thing you know they’re buying houses that established citizens cannot afford? Those enterprising newcomers sound like just the sort of folks we need. Never mind that JD’s premise is as BS as his 30M number.
JD Vance: "A lot of young people are saying housing is way too expensive. Why is that? Because we flooded the country with 30 million illegal immigrants who were taking houses that ought by right go to American citizens."

there's a moment in PARADISE LOST where Satan arrives in Eden and realizes Hell isn't a place; it's a thing he carries within him and it'll follow him wherever he goes. and i think about that when i see these awful rich men whose monstrous wealth has enriched them not at all

You mean young people actually turn out to vote in droves when candidates they can identify with campaign on issues that affect their lives? Who’dathunkit?
Early vote numbers in NYC paint a picture of an electorate I don’t think anyone could have predicted.

I live in Iowa. It has been this way in our state since 2017.
Trumpist rule consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: there must be a president and executive branch whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside its opponents and victims whom the law binds but does not protect.

All the pundits and news outlets that bought into these schmucks’ transparent nonsense about antisemitism at the Ivies should reflect for a few minutes on how badly and easily they were played.
1. A watershed moment.

The President of the Heritage Foundation and Heritage Action, Kevin Roberts , has announced that the organization is standing by Tucker Carlson in the aftermath of Tucker’s interview with neo-Nazi Nick Fuentes.

This isn’t Kevin bending his knee to Trump…this is something new

The Trump administration is offering $60K in student loan forgiveness as a recruitment tool for ICE, which just proves fighting Biden on student loan relief was never about the loans or “paying your own debt.” It was about who was offering it and who it would’ve helped.

Any American medium that fails to cover the largest protests in American history is failing in the basic mission of informing the public about the facts.

The President of the United States just essentially declared a war on Chicago because — wait for it! — Black and Brown people live here.

This is not normal. This is not okay. And we are going to fucking fight back.

Remember when Obama didn’t wear a jacket one time while he was working in the oval and the republicans flipped out? This is all fine though.

My kingdom for a Democrat who runs on “You know how Medicaid stopped covering her nursing home last year and you went bankrupt trying to pay out of pocket? I’m going to punish the people who did that to you.”
The one thing we’ve learned is that cruelty is sexy and we should have promised to rain hell on Trump.

All people's rights under the Constitution are, per the Supreme Court, 100% alienable. If you cannot hire a lawyer and engage in effective litigation against the power of the entire executive branch of the federal government, you have no rights at all.

Regardless of your opinion on Iran strike, Trump is showing a case of CHICKENING OUT, so far

Every time he considers action he backs. Remember after Iran attacked us troops, shot down 200 million dollar plane, etc?

As we have always said. Talks big but scared to death. Taco
