I, like many of you, have been contemplating our predicament since election night.
We are in a losing war for our democracy and I'm not sure we collectively know who our true adversary is.
It's not the voting blocks...white women, Latinos, Gen X. It's not MAGA. It's not even Trump.

When making a MAGA cabinet, it's very important to strike a careful balance between billionaires, sex criminals, Russian assets, anti-vaxxers, and just plain unpleasant people.

Just a reminder that Elon Musk has never had a single relative wear the uniform or bleed for this country. If he wants to threaten a veteran, he should try doing it to their face.

CNN made the choice 8 years ago to cover politics like entertainment in order to increase its own profits.
So it’s only fitting that that short-sighted, greedy and stupid decision has led to CNN’s downfall. Good fucking riddance.

Never in my life have I ever been hanging out with my friends, having a blast, and suddenly thought, “Hey, this is kind of an echo chamber, huh? You know what we would benefit from? Hanging out with someone who hates gay people! That’s a perspective we haven’t considered!”

Trump’s election represents the triumph of normal Americans (a South African billionaire who does nothing but post all day) over unaccountable elites (a mid-level functionary in the EPA office of water enforcement with $25,000 in student loans)

This is an echo of the general election. The trans Democrat is blamed for "sparking" the crisis despite the fact she did nothing beyond be herself.
Before she arrived to DC, or made any demands, the GOP preemptively turned her identity into a political issue.
So, who is doing identity politics?

Endorsed. I would gladly pay a monthly fee for a good social media service.
Here’s the thing: I’m 100% happy to pay for a social media app. Every month. Roll out Bsky Blue tomorrow and I’m in.
The problem with Twitter premium wasn’t the premium. The problem was that you would be giving money to manic, drug addled Bond villain.

the big questions now, from @davekarpf.bsky.social: “eventually they need to figure out: All right, how do we pay for the service? How do we pay our employees? How do we sustain this growth?”

We could have had a Cabinet filled with capable, competent, compassionate human beings, and instead will be subject to one populated by grifters, career criminals, and sociopaths.

What kind of convoluted, pretzel-brain bullshit is this?
If the US was invading Mexico, I would fully expect Mexico to use any weapons they had at their disposal.
If Russia doesn’t want to be bombed, the simple answer is to get the fuck out of Ukraine.
