It’s fun to think about the surgeon who will botch your surgery 20 years from now and what he’s doing at this moment. He just ran all his homework through ChatGPT. He just read that article about vaccines and autism at the CDC website. He just watched an Instagram video about the moon landing hoax.

Interviews and records show the White House intervened on behalf of accused sex trafficker Andrew Tate during a federal investigation.

The incident is the latest in a string of matters where the Trump administration has inserted itself to help friends and target foes.
The White House Intervened on Behalf of Accused Sex Trafficker Andrew Tate During a Federal Investigation
Federal authorities were chided for seizing electronic devices from Tate and his brother, and told to return them, records and interviews show. Experts said the intervention was highly inappropriate.

Response “Is that what you called the Epstein girls in private? Was degrading women part of the appeal Epstein sold to his closest friends? Do you think degrading women now makes you seem more or less likely to be covering up for Epstein crime associates?”

Philanthropy will never be a replacement for the services that the government can and should provide. Which is why we should tax the shit out of wealthy people to pay for such services.

Colorado Republicans had targeted school board races as their best opportunity in 2026 but teachers union and Democrat-backed candidates lead in Denver, Jefferson County, Cherry Creek, and even conservative Douglas County, per 9NEWS' Jennifer Meckles. #copolitics

UPDATE: Dems lead every city council race in Aurora, Colorado - and could flip a 7-3 GOP majority into a 6-4 Dem edge - including what would be a shocking upset of MAGA media star Danielle Jurinsky, whose claims of a "complete gang takeover" led Trump to call Aurora "conquered." #copolitics

MIDNIGHT UPDATE: Union-backed school board candidates in Durango, Colo. are beating their conservative opponents by 40 pt margins. Conservatives, including anti-furry fmr Gov candidate Heidi Ganahl, have made Durango the center of education culture war issues lately. #copolitics

MIDNIGHT UPDATE: Moderate/Dem-backed candidates are currently sweeping every school board race in conservative Douglas County, Colorado (home to a famous school voucher experiment). Would give moderates total 7-0 control of the school board. #copolitics

Yes. All the empirics on misinformation indicate that the way to defeat bad ideas is to mock and marginalize them. Constantly declaring "hey the far right isn't so bad" is a terrible strategy both morally and electorally.

Dems should be way more comfortable saying "look at these fucking psychos"
Progressives really hope, and maybe even believe, that there is some magic thing they can hijack to attract conservative voters.

The focus on this mythical quest is the central reason they lose.
I found this piece sad too, but mostly because it is part of a years-long effort by progressives to understand what "really" animates Trump voters.

We already know! It is racism, misogyny and misinformation. I know that sounds condescending or whatever but it's simply what all evidence suggests.

Anyone who wants to argue needs to post an example of media in which a right winger makes a good-faith effort to listen to and understand the rest of us.
We've gotten so many of these pieces where a liberal engages in a good-faith effort to understand Trump voters. Every time, they discover that there's no deeper sympathetic reason they hold their views. They're just misinformed and hateful. My own efforts have found this too.

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

John Roberts legalized sports gambling; let $ pour into politcs; gutted VRA & administrative state; eliminated the right to abortion; gave complete immunity to Trump

"[Roberts] has never copped to the fact that he was enabling corruption, theft, or autocracy"

As Trump plans to steal $230 million from taxpayers, we can thank John Roberts
Shall we call it a "Roberts reward"?
