Why does every conservative activist write like an LLM trained exclusively on right-wing terrorist manifestos?
it's utterly wild how the Heritage Foundation president talks about other people

if you found a guy talking like this outside, you'd probably call the cops

Before castigating a book for not using a term, you should check to see if the book uses a term.

Brian Schatz: "This is not about money. There is enough money to bail out Argentina with $20b. There is enough money to purchase a brand new aircraft for $173m for Noem. There is enough money to renovate the WH ballroom. What there isn't enough money for under this Republican government is you."

Enough is enough. Adelita Grijalva was elected on September 23. The people of Arizona have a right to be represented in Congress.
 
During today’s pro forma session, when the House is called to order I will seek unanimous consent to insist upon the swearing-in of Adelita Grijalva.

ICE is stockpiling arms, including chemical weapons, guided missile warheads and explosive components. The spending dwarfs anything we've ever seen in the agency - a 700% increase.

The President is building an army to attack his own country.

I am completely awestruck by the ease with which Mike Johnson lies on a daily basis. I'll never understand how such a transparently fraudulent "man of faith" can live with themselves. Life is too short to be that phony.

If you're not surprised & puzzled about Treasuries being <4% then you're either a seer, incurious or have better things to wonder about.

Large deficits (albeit smaller than expected), capital demand, Fed independence risk, persistent inflation, uncertainty, all go the other way.

The President is saying that any federal employee with a gun will be paid, despite a lack of appropriations, and the rest will not, because they work in "Democrat programs."

The political leader being the patron of the military is the most basic feudal King-shit.
Mike Johnson: "The irony was that they called it the No Kings Rally, but if President Trump was a king, the government would be open. If President Trump was a king, he would've closed the nationals parks and the National Mall so they couldn't of had the rally out here."

An ICE agent, who is being arrested for drunk driving and nearly killing his little kids & others, tries to stop the arrest by racially profiling the officers arresting him. Amazing to watch the courtesy given to him as he is belligerent and uncooperative

"everyone will see how criminal and corrupt these people are so we don't have to make that argument ourselves" is one of the most singularly wrong pieces of conventional political wisdom in Dem circles and yet it will not die

Not really that unusual for D.C. to go seven consecutive days w/o a homicide. Happened in May and March (16 days, actually), last September, last August, last April, last March, last January. Plenty of 6-day stretches in there too. No homicides between 7/12 and 7/19 this year.

Here is an image of the crowd of people that chased a dozen ICE agents out of Columbia Heights yesterday. I don’t see one “elderly white hippie” there.

I do see a wide variety of ages, genders, and races; DC residents united in disgust at what Miller is cheering on.

This Empire Strikes Back fascist energy isn't going to play well in the United States. This isn't 1930's Europe. Yes, some non-insignificant percentage of Americans wants this, but the vast majority of us do not. We are repelled by it. And repelled by Stephen Miller.
Stephen Miller: "All these demonstrators that you've seen out here in recent days, all these elderly white hippies, they're not part of the city and never have been ... we're gonna ignore these stupid white hippies that all need to go home and take a nap because they're all over 90 years old."

If you think Americans are either too racist or too stupid to support people who wave Mexican flags at a pro-immigrant rally, perhaps we shouldn't listen to your opinions on how to appeal to voters.

There is something pathological with the cosplay comms consultants and finding narrow and divisive issues to focus on.

It is telling that the diagnosis is always that Dems should abandon all non-conformists to chase after the mythical rural swing voter.
