Imagine looking at the period after WWII and especially after the Cold War as an era of American weakness.

Unless, I suppose, if becoming the strongest, wealthiest country in history sounds bad to you because some brown people were a part oft, and you'd rather be weaker if it means being whiter.

This…is not economics
Vance: "Why have rents gone down for 4 consecutive months? Because we're starting to get those illegal aliens out of the USA. Those criminals, those gang members, those people that are taking homes that ought by right go the people in this room. It's simple economics."

The new Bolt, much like its predecessor, is a down-to-earth car that’s meant for the masses, so you’re not going to find a lot of customization in the online configurator. But it's a great deal.

An entire room full of powerful old white people smiling and laughing as the president dehumanizes black immigrants and the first black president.

Just fucking pathetic.
Trump, continued: "What the Somalian people have done to Minnesota is not even believable. It’s not even believable. And a lot of it starts with the governor. A lot of it starts with Barack HUSSEIN Obama, because that’s when people started coming in... They want to kiss our country good night."

We are seeing this admin over and over again decide to target people who have become technically deportable through no fault of their own other than government delay.

Why? One reason is because they’re the compliant ones who are easy targets for an admin who wants quick boosts in arrest numbers.

“mr speaker do you have any concerns about the amount of information your staff is apparently hiding from you” is a pretty obvious question that needs to be asked
Q: What's your reaction to yesterday's purge of senior ICE officials? When is it time for Congress to do some oversight?

Once again, one reason Trump says & does whatever he wants is bc every societal institution, including the media, has totally normalized & internalized the idea that the laws, the Constitution, & the international treaties we have signed & ratified simply don’t apply to this one guy. It’s maddening.
No mention at all of the fact that Trump doesn't have the legal authority to do this, that plans haven't even been reviewed (because the office is closed for the government shutdown), that the size and cost estimates keep changing, etc., etc.
Part of White House Is Reduced to Rubble. Trump’s Ballroom Will Rise in Its Place.

Their contempt for millions of Americans is unchristian, unpatriotic, and sad.
Ron Johnson: "In the private sector, when a company is bankrupt - and let's face it, our nation is bankrupt - employees are laid off & they have to go find jobs elsewhere. Which quite honestly shouldn't be that difficult if federal workers lose some jobs. In Wisconsin, you can't find enough workers"

It's nauseating how childish and obtuse this is. It's not just that it's grotesquely immoral; it's also horrible strategy. He's tossing everything we know about what's actively effective in modern military operations in favor of an adolescent power fantasy.
Hegseth: "We unleash overwhelming and punishing violence on the enemy. We also don't fight with stupid rules of engagement. We untie the hands of our warfighters to intimidate, demoralize, hunt, and kill the enemies of our country. No more politically correct and overbearing rules of engagement."

Many of this are left cold by this. I sure am. But this - the kind of performative Andrew Tate cartoon-masculinity, the clumsy swagger, the maundering braggadocio, the needy desperate I‘M A MANLY MAN I’M A MANLY MAN, speaks to a howling void of inadequacy in some people’s souls.

Hegseth fires general officers and JAGs, cracks down on dissenting views in military, orders killing civilians at sea without legal rationale, calls generals to Quantico to demand loyalty.

The thing that will drive me insane is watching the right explicitly calling for violence against their enemies (see also the Daily Caller article) and then in the same breath declaring anyone who even points it out as being a violent extremist, and then the media going “Sure, makes sense to me”

This is just objectively the exact opposite of the truth. Every serious effort to actually quantify the ideological valence of political violence has found the reverse of what Vance claims.
Vance: “People on the left are much likelier to defend and celebrate political violence. This is not a both sides problem. If both sides have a problem, then one side has a much bigger and malignant problem and that is the truth.”

People need to understand just how openly genocidal the rhetoric on the far right is getting towards transgender people. They're openly talking about eradicating us and forcefully mass institutionalizing all trans people.

These are people with direct ties to the Trump administration.
