Unironically they should buy up the domains for about 60 defunct local newspapers in swing states. Hire two reporters to write almost exclusively about highschool sports and new restaurants opening with every 10th article about how the local GOP is screwing over people.
NEWS:
Democratic mega-donors are debating plans to spend tens of millions of dollars on a range of influencer plans to "find the liberal Rogan."
We've got pitch decks, investor meetings, and internal docs.
One Democrat has a spreadsheet of 26 different proposals.

Too many elected leaders in the Democratic Party are either unwilling or unable to meet the moment and are asleep at the wheel while Trump is demolishing the economy, challenging the foundations of our democracy, and creating new existential crises for our country by the day.

It’s hard to calculate the damage done by MSNBC over the yrs.
They turned “resistance” into a partisan, passive, Corp pursuit, blacked out climate, covered up Biden’s cognitive decline, cowered in the face of a 24/7 streamed genocide & gave Dems a free pass they used to betray working ppl.

By yoking their cruelty to the genre of ASMR videos, the White House is making explicit their investments in the eroticization of state violence, coding their brutalities through the affective structures of sensual pleasure.
I think most people are intuitively aware of this but something like the official White House account posting an “ASMR” video of shackled immigrants is not just cruel for its own sake, it’s intentional envelope-pushing to ramp up to desensitization over inhumane detention, camps, and deaths
