The mythical media trump—who knows anything about what he's talking about—is on a collision course with the sudden need to pretend to know nothing at all about a story that he's had lots of help trying to forget.
Round Up the Usual Suspect - Truthdig
The media version of Donald Trump as the author of his own administration isn't the one leaving his DNA at the crime scene.

This answer that Mamdani provided in a 2020 interview shows that he has always been extremely open about the complexities of his diasporic identity and remains the perfect rebuttal to the attempted scandal the NYT is trying to create today.

The politicians who commit these crimes are overwhelmingly Republican.

Think about how good of a man he was, that on his last day on Earth—and literally the most important Christian holiday—he still was willing to spend five minutes with a man like J.D. Vance.
Francis, the First Latin American Pope, Dies at 88

As the MAGA regime’s ongoing assault on our lives and our loved ones ramps up, many of us feel tongue-tied - at a loss for the words to express what is happening, let alone marshal resistance to it.

I know the material reasons for the rise of fascism. I also think another reason - which doesn’t get talked about as much because it’s embarrassing that humans can be that naive - is that when you are financially comfortable but bored, abstract cruelty can give you a sense of purpose.

The Super Bowl felt like a “get off the mat” moment for those of us who don’t share Trump's dark vision for America. From the ads to the pregame show to Kendrick Lamar’s flag to the team that won, this was a day that reminded us where the real power in America is.

It's amazing how badly most congressional Democrats are misreading the mood of their base.
On the bright side, if you're ever considered running for Congress, the 2026 Democratic Party primaries are going to be a prime moment for "throw the old guard out" insurgents.

The freedom to live how one wants, to love who one wants, to form families based on desire and kinship rather than societal obligation, to control one’s own body - these are all essential conditions for a tolerable life for many people, and right now no one is aggressively defending them.

I’m never surprised with the Democratic Party for behaving like feckless idiots, but there’s an obvious affirmative case to be made for trans rights alongside reproductive rights and LGBTQ rights and it’s about FREEDOM which is something you would think US politicians wouldn’t be afraid to embrace.

“Bernie would have won” is a statement of values. It doesn’t mean him specifically, this time, at his age, would have won. (Though he would have in 2016.)
It means we know what it takes to win. Authenticity. Left populism. A willingness to go anywhere to fight for your beliefs.
