lol: textualism!
Kavanaugh also brings up "detransitioners," people who "regret" their decision to transition genders. Like Alito, he cites European countries that are "pulling back" from gender-affirming care for minors, saying it's a "yellow light" or "red light" for the court that Europe is "pumping the brakes."

People thinking this NC power grab bill will have any effect on voters are sorely mistaken. Swing voters do not pay attention to this shit. Wisconsin did something like this 6 years ago and people don’t even know!

I suspect I’m the only Democrat in America who ran for office with language like this in his policy agenda. People laughed at it and said it was unnecessary, Harris would win. Did she? Was it?

The prurient coomers and the prudish squares are completely irreconcilable, unless you consider that perhaps the reason for both their prudishness and their prurience is that they hate women, then it makes immediate and perfect sense

basically the more I think about it the more I think the problem with american politics is that we've built this vast media universe, from the mainstream down into the fever swamps, designed to coddle right-wing radicals and ensure they never encounter a notion that will hurt their feelings

One of the pathologies you see in a lot of punditry/discourse is some implicit assumption that in a deep sense Democrats *should* win every election and when they don’t it shows how bad they are, or how annoying libs are of whatever. But America’s a pretty conservative place!

One year ago, Kash Patel, while sniffling repeatedly as he does in every interview (he just can’t shake that cold) promised to prosecute Hunter for new crimes. Then Trump names him FBI Director. He told you ahead of time he’s going after Hunter. So tired of the pearl clutchers.

A "nepo baby" complaint from Meghan McCain has to be a joke, right?

Glad to finally see Biden stepping up to this threat. He should pardon every democrat - every senator, every rep, every media figure, etc. These people are not safe in a Trump presidency. They need blanket pardons today.

Democrats, 2019: “Voters don’t want to hear about Trump, they want to hear about kitchen-tables”

Democrats, 2022: “By focusing on kitchen-table issues, we can win votes and beat Trump”

Democrats, 2025: “Dictatorship schmictatorship, can’t wait to work with Fuhrer Trump on kitchen-table issues”

It’s wild watching this utterly delusional leftist hallucination of the Harris campaign take hold, where she went around and said “I’m a Republican, I’m a Republican.” You can see the TikToks nestling into their brain matter in real time
Literally campaigned with Liz Cheney and disavowed Medicare for all

So a reminder:

It’s not ‘liberals’ saying Hegseth abuses women. It’s his mom.

It’s not ‘liberals’ comparing Trump to Hitler. It’s his vice-president.

It’s not ‘liberals’ calling Musk a liar and a racist. It’s his own child.

For the record.

Silver is an idiot. The Dem base is not “cities,” it’s the reliable, high-engagement Dem voters in those cities. Those voters showed, turnout was extremely high. Dems slipped among more marginal voters

That "genuine choice" part is really what it boils down to me. Can't have a "death with dignity" law within a society that doesn't support people enough to live with dignity.

Not even this - no one writing about Harris has even done the bare minimum and noted that whatever their advice to her was, Trump invariably flouted that same advice, and won anyway
Seriously though, for all the self serving post election analysis on what Harris should or shouldn't have done, has any major media ran anything noting sociopathic lying was apparently the winning strategy?

It’s like dwelling on how a team lost the superbowl when the winner just kept putting 5 extra men on the field and the refs pretended they didn’t notice.
