Populism: - ⁠kick people off Medicaid - ⁠kick people off ACA - ⁠cut taxes for the rich - ⁠tax the working class with tariffs - ⁠tell farmers and ranchers to fuck themselves

Waning days of Trump presidency: Release the Epstein files! Waning days of Vance presidency: Release the Raymour & Flanagan files!

Me, to ChatGPT: Compile a list of the most authoritarian things Trump has done in the first 9 months of his term. [produces gigantic list without historic precedent] ChatGPT: Would you like me to provide a longer list?

OMG this William G. Young opinion that just dropped (12:30pm) in AAUP v. Rubio. It begins with a postcard sent to Chambers and Young's reply card: "Trump has pardons and tanks, what do you have?" WGY: "We the People of the United States — you and me — have our magnificent Constitution"

The government needs to release the full list of people who did not have a relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. nypost.com/2025/09/26/u...

Truman: “I hate corruption.” FDR: “I hate war.” Eisenhower: “I [too] hate war.” Trump, at a funeral: “I HATE MY OPPONENTS.”

A good day to remember that on May 17 of last year, Nick Fuentes accidentally live streamed himself watching gay porn.

I have a couple of comments about the "free speech hero" narrative about Charlie Kirk. First, was Charlie Kirk really notable for supporting the free speech of people he disagreed with? I haven't noticed that, though I could have missed it. /1

If you’re shooting someone in the neck for expressing a point of view, you’re not antifascist.

A physical attack on someone exercising their constitutional right to speak is an attack on all of us. The content of the speech is irrelevant. This is another sad day for America.

Political violence is bad. It usually begets more political violence. Celebrating political violence is bad. It usually encourages more political violence, against various targets. Campus shootings are bad. They make everyone on campus less safe. It's bad that what I wrote here is controversial.

This is one ham-fisted act of protest. I’ll bet he was just about to chicken out when he finally mustard the nerve.

Looks like the Reichstag Liar is bringing his show to DC.

Question for Mike Flood: With $450 million being allocated to Alligator Alcatraz, and ICE burning through $8.4 million a day to illegally detain people—How much does it cost for fascism? How much do the tax payers have to pay for a fascist country?

When you lose Nick Fuentes Nick Fuentes to Trump: "Fúck you. You suck. You're fat, you're a joke, you're stupid, you're not funny... This entire thing has been a scam. We're gonna look back at MAGA movement as the biggest scam in history. The liberals were right we will see Trump as a scam artist."

The #1 way to explain America working properly is by saying “comedians can make fun of he President on TV.” A good way to explain fascism is “the President forces companies to fire those comedians as a condition of allowing them to conduct business.”

It’s obvious to anyone with an IQ >100 that Trump’s IQ is <100.

i give it a year tops before some administration account is tweeting pro-slavery propaganda

This must be outdated—I thought Donald Trump Jr and Kimberley Guilfoyle had called things off?

Recently, there have been several stick-ups and one Axe murder (in the first Degree). Management has made no Secret of the need to increase security, but still haven’t found the Right Guard. Finding themselves underarmed, the crime wave continues to roll on.

“Elect the crook or the feds invade” Fuck Eric Adams Fuck Donald Trump And just for good measure, fuck Eric Trump

Trump’s pattern is to make a big show of shitting on / breaking prior policy, only to ineptly fumble his way right back to the status quo ante : Ukraine, Iran nuclear deal, NAFTA, TACOing the tariffs… If he’s not Ceaucescu’ed first, maybe one day he’ll figure out why we welcome immigration.

I was saying back in 2016 that ignoring the toxic elements of the online Left was a bad idea and that they would fester and get nastier. I was accused of being a Hillary bot (I not only voted for but donated money to Bernie), hating poor people, and supporting Imperialism for my trouble.

As I wrote to my OBBB-voting congressman: do we really need 10,000 Derek Chauvin’s prowling our streets in unmarked cars, with the implicit promise of a pardon by the president, clad in balaclavas, refusing to identify themselves, harassing anyone who may vaguely look like “an illegal” (or not)?

Download this app a) to help warn ppl who might be targeted by ICE and b) to piss off Pam Bondi and Kristi Noem

A problem orders of magnitude worse on the right, but the left is not immune to lying and in-group dishonesty either. If we’re to reverse the tide of fascism, it will require epistemological courage and self-accountability that only the left can provide (as the right sure as shit won’t do it).

The weirdos, you see, are those who think it’s important that the benefits of affirmative action flow to those for whom the policy was intended.

A big reason the MAGA cult exists is that it’s really hard to say: “The politician whose personality and policies I like, who’s liked by the people I like, who’s hated by the people I hate and who hate me, did something wrong and I’m going to criticize him for it.” The resistance *has* to do this.

Josh Barro is right. “African-American,” in the civil rights context operative here, is explicitly defined in federal guidelines as “black” (consistent w the common understanding that Elon Musk is not “African-American”). Incredible bad faith from Mamdani partisans. www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/...

The level of motivated reasoning being deployed on behalf of Mamdani (re an otherwise fairly inconsequential story) is on par with the most absurd mental gymnastics of Trump apologists. Resistance doesn’t just mean fighting MAGA, but also not *acting like* MAGA:

I agree with Mamdani on most issues and hope he wins. I don’t love that he lied on a college application or how he’s now defending it, but there’s bigger fish to fry. However, the insane acrobatics his supporters are doing to defend him is *very* MAGA. No Kings means not idealizing ANY politician.

People need to go to jail over this youtu.be/zWxa-AcHQv0

The media made a HUGE deal out of "basket of deplorables" and "cling to their guns or religion." But, of course, it will totally ignore Trump saying he hates Democrats: "I hate them. I believe they hate their country."

If I didn't work at this baby killing factory, they would still be killing the same number of babies. I wouldn't be able to provide for my family. And someone else would just take my spot at the baby killing factory. And I love my family. So in many ways, I am a hero.

Mike Lawler is such a piece of shit.

Trump net approval swings across a sampling of states show intriguing vulnerability in TX and NC

10% of the electorate are naturalized citizens. If the admin starts making examples out of people & denaturalizing them for minor infractions, how many others become too paranoid to vote? How many of them start voting R as a kind of “insurance?”

Karoline Leavitt indicates the administration is open to a denaturalization-oriented investigation against Zohran Mamdani

Florida Republicans are now selling concentration camp merch. Absolutely vile and indefensibly repugnant.

There are only three political positions in America today 1) I like the fascism 2) I'll acquiesce to the fascism (reasons for this one vary: cowardice, access, denial, misguidedly thinking that acquiescence is savvy, etc) 3) I oppose the fascism The rest is details

Tomorrow, at noon, Judge Farbiarz (DNJ) will hold a hearing on whether to release Mahmoud Khalil on bail. Khalil, in custody in Louisiana, requested the hearing 91 days ago. Since then at least 5 others similarly situated have all been released. Thread. 1/21
