The mainstream press has the same problem as the Democratic Party: it treats the Republican Party as a normal political party, rather than as an anti-Enlightenment, segregationist death cult. You should not work with them on anything, you should defeat them because all their ideas suck.

They voted for Trump due to his “no tax on tips” pledge. Now, with family members deported and health insurance out of reach, they regret their votes. Still, they say they wouldn’t hesitate to give Trump an illegal third term if he promises no taxes on sports betting parlays.

In terms of US politics, Bush v. Gore is the defining event of the century. It set the template: a ruthless right that instinctively seeks power & doesn't give a shit about rule of law...and a bunch of hapless, feckless octogenarian Dems worried about the good opinion of centrist opinion columnists.
The 25th anniversary of Bush v Gore is today. The conspiracy mongering & corruption of the GOP has been brewing for a long time.
Roberts, Barrett and Kavanaugh were all on Bush's legal team, where they pushed unfounded legal theories. SC justices were already enmeshed in voter fraud myths.

I'll admit I don't know much about judicial review, but is there any other democracy where supposedly neutral arbiters of the law consistently produce "neutral arbitration" that consistently advances the goals of the political party who gave them their jobs?
BREAKING: Supreme Court sides with Texas Republicans in fight over congressional map. The new gerrymandered map will be used in the 2026 midterms. The vote is 6–3, with the Republican appointees siding with Texas.

It's become normal now for high-level political figures to argue that an entire generation was brainwashed through fake videos into mass anti-Israel political mobilization by TikTok. Complete conspiracy thinking, rooted in zero evidence, based on nothing
Hillary Clinton blames TikTok and “totally made up” videos for young people’s views on Israel and Palestine.
She says social media influenced “not just the usual suspects” but also “young Jewish Americans who don’t know the history and don’t understand.”
