Hey Mike Johnson, America has a question for you: What would be someone's motivation for covering-up for a pedophile?
There's only a couple answers:
• Either you're guilty of the same crimes, or
• The accused party is blackmailing you for other very serious crimes you've committed.
Which is it?

Sure it’s tough to find a new job or afford a home or groceries, but Trump has doubled his net worth since taking office by profiting off the presidency.

Excellent piece on the ideological antecedents of Trumpism and MAGA, from @mattpolprof.bsky.social. Core point: MAGA is expressly anti-egalitarian, something that constantly gets airbrushed away or just passes unnoticed in mainstream pundit depictions of it

Only Power Matters
Few writers have argued against modern egalitarianism with more flourish than Samuel Francis. Donald Trump and his gang now practice what Francis preached.

The best obituary about Kirk, the standard against which others should be measured—and shamed if they fail to honestly grapple with the facts of Kirk's life.
Unsurprisingly, Elizabeth has been inundated with threats for this, thus carrying on Kirk's legacy of hate, intimidation, and a worse future.

I wrote my own Charlie Kirk obituary, and about valuing truth over manners: www.thenation.com/article/poli...
Charlie Kirk’s Legacy Deserves No Mourning
The white Christian nationalist provocateur wasn't a promoter of civil discourse. He preached hate, bigotry, and division

Want to use rich people like me to your advantage? Incent us to help those who need it the most. Lower corp taxes for comps that pay a min of $25 per hour. Lower corp taxes if employees get stock at the same pct as the CEO.
Bottom up incentives work. Dems never innovate. They bitch

Put another way, Harris didn't lose because of Democratic positions on trans rights. And if Dems adopt right-coded positions on trans-rights, and then elevate those to a more central element of their campaign rhetoric, it's more likely to turn off voters than it is to encourage them to vote Dem. 5/5
