I would just like to ask the Republican Party to please put Stephen Miller in front cameras as much as possible from now until the midterms because he is such a likable & charismatic person with so many amazing & popular ideas for people who aren’t white Christian nationalists.

The solution to the male loneliness epidemic is attending a local Democratic Party canvassing event.

This is was a great speech by Sherrill. Not Mamdani’s barn burner but she should not be discounted. www.cnn.com/2025/11/04/p...

I love this night for us. Lots of hard stuff to deal with and work to do though.

Factional infighting like this is stupid and self-defeating. Bigger things are happening. And everyone should stand with New Yorkers’ right to pick their own mayor in the face of authoritarian threats that, if they choose against the president’s preferences, he’ll break the law to hurt the city.

We're currently at the "Jesus didn't say we should feed people" portion of the fall of American Evangelicalism.

A little apt metaphor, on the other hand,…

we got food stamps when I was a kid (waaaay pre-"SNAP" and "EBT"). I guess I'm one in two. Thanks, America, for all the food!

Sounds like a marriage based on a solid foundation of mutual respect and love good luck to you usha

On these centrist diagnoses, let's be blunt: Folks are obscuring what *they know to be true* about the thermostatic nature of politics (things fluctuate!) in order to overhype meaning of a narrow win driven largely by cost of living to fleece donors/push pet ideological projects. It's pretty gross.

HUNT: Dems have argued that the norms of our govt should be that you negotiate policy outside of a shutdown GALLEGO: You're talking about norms in a time of Donald Trump? H: But Ds have spent so much time arguing that maintaining norms is incredibly important G: It's all out the window, Kasie. No

the needs of the anxious comfortable white male doing midcentury working class drag are at the very bottom of my list right now

sticker book from hell

All these people are saying “wait to you think he’s REALLY a Nazi,” and my response is “no I think it’s more likely he’s an irony-poisoned edgelord douchebro, another group that’s absolutely ruining the fucking country.”

Holy War!

Karoline Leavitt practicing her poop plane response in the mirror, “People made it clear a year ago that they are tired of the same old same old politics.”

In the 2010s, this country's elites were thrown onto social platforms with everyone else and could finally read what we all think about them and it caused them so much psychic damage that they decided to destroy both the internet and democracy to make sure nothing like it ever happened again.

the msm has far more resources than us but some of these six and seven figure "journalists" like maggie haberman and jake tapper can't be bothered to tell their audience the truth.

The only way we save our country is through our numbers. Trump and MAGA don't have the majority, not even close. Overwhelm them with numbers. Resist everywhere. They are too reckless, incompetent, and self-destructive. Also, divide and conquer. Many fissures, especially around Epstein.

THESE PEOPLE ARE RUNNING FOR THEIR LIVES FROM ANTIFA, GOVERNOR

I feel like a broken record, but I have to keep saying it over and over again: a farmer bailout won’t do much of anything because the market is gone. There will be no incentive to plant next year. The bailout will help payoff farmer debt to the banks. That’s all.

Lee Greenwood is 83-years-old and has exactly one (1) incredibly terrible song, so I say we let them have this one and let all of America bask in their vision of conservative excellence.

I am still fixated on the "God will bless" us part. She's saying "God will bless us" because she is sure of what she believes (terrorizing people and violating their rights) and the NFL doesn't "know what they believe" it's just the wildest fake weird statement of faith

Haven’t read the piece yet. But it may be he best description I’ve heard of Klein generally.

Another congrats to the Americans who thought putting war crimes advocates in charge of the military would make no difference or perhaps be an improvement, and that reinstalling a former president who ordered attacks, destabilized situations, and pardoned convicted war criminals would bring peace.

A very efficient, distilled and to me pretty persuasive version of the bear case against AI economics.

This seems to be their angle. If there’s a shutdown they won’t furlough employees they’ll fire them permanently. The fact that this is illegal kind of isn’t the point these days. I don’t see why this is much of a threat. They don’t have to do this. It’s a choice. They run the govt. when things …

That health care briefing today had to make Bill Cassidy and Susan Collins damn proud of their votes to confirm RFK Jr. At least while selling out the public health of a nation they avoided a mean post from Trump on Truth Social. Priorities.

"Reactionary" is too mild to describe MAGA ideology. They don't just oppose progress; they derive their positions from seeing what their enemies like and then attacking it, even if doing so has no purpose beyond causing misery. Hence the hostility to solar/wind, the Hyundai raid, and so forth.

The Right’s Scary Quick Campaign to Exploit Charlie Kirk’s Death newrepublic.com/article/2005... via @newrepublic.com

will mark facebook, sundar google and tim apple be adding this to the calendar reminders

Just because I saw someone mention it: There’s no reason to think that TPUSA/Kirk had a significant effect on the 2024 election. The turnout operation was non-existent and claims that they/he are the central (or even a major) cause of young voters moving right aren’t backed by any actual evidence.

Update: Civil War cancelled due to shooter being demographically uncooperative

I can understand the anguish from losing someone you looked up to politically. What sits wrong with me now is that we see none of that from some of the same people whenever children are murdered in school. Maybe we all agree it should all end

This is simply untenable. There is no way forward with media and political classes captured by the right. Every time someone commits a crime you have to pray it's not an undesirable or it's purge time, then when it turns out to be themselves again they just shrug and wait for the next one.

the most ideologically consistent shooter was definitely Hinckley. Can’t get any more coherent than: I just wanted to impress Jodie foster

Kirk didn't serve in the military or hold office. The war hero treatment -- half-mast flags, military guard, Air Force Two escort, calls for a statue at the Capitol or to lie in the Rotunda -- shows that for MAGA, service to Trump has become the highest, most honorable form of service.

"Transgender ideology so simple you could fit it on a bullet!"* * (doesn't exist)

There are violent extremists on the left but they are not in charge of the party. You can find them on social media, not in the halls of power. The violent extremists on the right are in congress, on courts, and sitting in the Oval Office.

“awful people don’t deserve to be killed, but they don’t deserve to be praised, either” is apparently a thought too complex for the pundit mind

Like Ezra Klein says, this is "practicing politics the right way." This is the Abundance™® way. May we all learn from Kirk's example and become rich from racist demagoguery.

I bet if Charlie Kirk had run a website called the Pundit Watchlist the reaction might be a bit different right now

HitlerSuckfest1488: "This has radicalized me."

The problem with allowing guns everywhere is that no one is safe anywhere.

i do not know but this seems like something that maybe should get a bit more coverage she is clearly saying it is not crime but the opposing party being in charge that is what is dictating their response

The public strongly disapproves of the president, the country is headed towards a terrible economic crisis, and Democrats are being told they have to be less shrill to have any chance of winning. Is it 2025 or 2005?

They turned the Rose Garden into the garden dining patio at the Fort Wayne Marriott

"Blueskyism" helped make The Onion one of the largest newspapers in the world in less than a year. If we had spent all of our time on Twitter, we'd be poorer, dumber and terminally ill with internet poisoning. He's just angry he's wasting away over there in a nazi agnostic lane that doesn't exist.

not to be overly optimistic or anything, but tillis and ernst both clearly think there will be elections in 2026 and that Rs may well lose them. fwiw.

Saying - “I don’t think the President of the United States should turn the US military against US citizens” is not admitting crime is not a problem we need to work on. Trump has some of you so spooked you can’t just say a bad thing is a bad thing. And that’s dangerous and bad politics. Wake up.
