The last 24 hours I lurked on Twitter more than anytime since I quit it, and one thing dawned on me - I think there are a lot of libs who actually just enjoy "the fight" .. there is something cathartic about dunking or replying to a conservative making a dumb point, and you obviously lose that here

this, but also you do it *fast* and you move on to the next thing before anyone has time to make it a big deal
This and Mamdani’s revocation of all EOs after Adams’s corrupt bargain are the template moving forward. No nibbling around the edges; total bulldozing.
Wow

The night before Spanberger’s inauguration

She’s cleared house at UVA

Top Youngkin appointees resign

Spanberger should be able to easily replace them given Dem trifecta

the Stancil thing really does drive home how much greater import some people place on having a completely correct billfold of opinions than actually doing something worthwhile in real life

Three generations of law professors making history up is enough.

Scholars spend decades researching and writing history with nuance and care.

American law professors will take a couple of months to relearn all of science to explain why the world is, in fact, flat.

It would be funny, if it wasn’t so infuriating, that this is the second time people have elected Donald Trump and then almost immediately been like “wait what the fuck we hate this guy”
Trump’s net job approval rating right now is actually lower than it was at this point in his first term

It's really funny how easy it is to go viral on here with a post like "Sources tell me Democrats now support legislation to throw trans people in concentration camps" ... I mean Dems are flawed but I think we can show a little more skepticism after 10 years+ of this

I was actually fine not knowing my neighbors and most of my family would be Nazis just because Donald Trump tells them to be. Ignorance is fantastic actually.

I will say for the legacy media that they have gone after Bari Weiss pretty relentlessly ever since she took over CBS.

Also most presidents want to be remembered as great men. Trump doesn't care about posterity. It's why another impeachment is also pointless with him.
Most presidents are motivated by some combination of wanting to put political wins on the board, helping their party advance its goals, and some genuine desire to help people / the country.

Trump doesn’t care about any of that! All he cares about is retribution against his perceived enemies!

Senator Kaine talks about dynamics playing out in Virginia redistricting

Virginia Dem members of Congress likely want a 9-2 map

General Assembly seems willing to go 10-1

Kaine suggests Spanberger mediates and he personally thinks 9-2 makes more sense
Video: Sen. Tim Kaine Says There’s “Skittishness” Over a Virginia 10D-1R US House Map; “I think the maps just look more kind of logical [at 9D-2R]”; "my unsolicited advice to Abigail is tell the federal delegation & the General Assembly to get on the same page" bluevirginia.us/2026/01/vide...

Stand-up comedy really the lowest form of "art" or whatever they want to call it tbh
I don't know how many people are aware of this, but there is a group of like five or six YouTube channels that are in the process of driving several podcast team comedians into madness.

Bill Burr is going insane.

Basically the whole Rogan sphere.

I'm all for Rogan turning the vibes a little negative on Trump because his comedy buddies are making fun of him privately, but people understand he'll spend 3 hours on a future pod with Musk about the white genocide right?

I mean this doesn't make him a Republican. People actually need to fundamentally understand why politicians do what they do instead of just the same canned criticisms
Liberals will accuse anyone who criticizes Newsom as a secret republican, but somehow him doing podcasts with Ben Shapiro and Charlie Kirk *doesn't* make him a republican
this is what america needs rn
