Yesterday, a Republican tried to give me holy water and Trump perfume because I’m “demonic.”

Extremely normal stuff coming from an extremely normal party.

MTG is absolutely running for President and everything she does should be viewed in that light
I'm not entirely unconvinced that MTG isn't also platforming for a presidential run on her current "sorry not sorry" tour.

You can think it’s good that Massie and MTG are stirring up shit within the GOP caucus without thinking their politics in general is good. It’s not hard at all in fact?

$220 million for a fascist ad campaign is bad enough. But it's all to line the pockets of Noem's friends and their families. The details in here are nuts.

The company is run by the husband of Noem’s chief DHS spokesperson and has personal and business ties to Noem and her aides. DHS invoked the “emergency” at the border to skirt competitive bidding rule...

The infighting is a splintering of the base. Trumps base just includes too many disparate groups. You just can’t have a tent that holds both antisemites and Zionists, billionaires and populists……

“The government is allowed to post real death threats on social media but you’re not allowed to post sarcastic death threats on social media” is actually a pretty apt distillation of power and violence

Huge scoop from Ed, who had several years of financial reports leaked to him. OpenAI has been over-reporting their revenue. The company is even less profitable than we knew.
Exclusive: Based on documents viewed by this newsletter, OpenAI spent over $12.4 billion on inference from 2024 to September 2025. As part of its Microsoft revenue share, it sent $493.8m in 2024/$865.8m Jan-Sep 2025, implying lower revenues than previously reported.

Larry Summers is such a POS and is directly responsible for so much crap thanks to his actions in the Clinton administration.

Didn't think I could hate him more, but damn, I didn't know this and I do hate him more.
One of my earliest moments of radicalization was in 2005 when Larry Summers said that women biologically have less aptitude for science than men. Following that, scores of equally unimpressive people wrote pieces trying to explain or justify his remarks, when they should have called for his removal.

We’re seeing increased and aggressive ICE activity across the Portland metro region — including around sensitive locations like schools.

Save the PIRC hotline on your phone and call/text if you witness ICE activity: 888-622-1510
Cesar Chavez School and George Middle School have implemented the PPS's “secure the perimeter” protocol amid reports of ICE activity in the neighborhood.

Take the Democratic Party away from Democratic leadership.
I can't stress this enough as a super volunteer for the Democratic Party and Democratic candidates. This should prompt you to get MORE involved, not less. Show up and use the existing infrastructure to make it work for all of us. In my neck of the woods, we've seen a ton of local victories this way.
Right, the answer isn't to abandon the party to these weasels.

The answer is to flood the party with people who will take it over and transform it.
