i have no idea how we get *out* of a shutdown, but i do not think that cocooning yourself in AI slop videos and refusing to leave your room is an effective way to win the politics of a shutdown
Trump has not been seen in public since Tuesday and has no public events on his calendar today

Nobody cares about the victims in the Dallas ICE shooting apparently. The first I've heard about one of them was on CNN today. He's fighting for his life in the hospital --- he was brought to the US when he was 13. He's 33 now. No criminal record.
I just don't know what to say anymore.

My optimism here is limited, but I really hope centrist institutions like universities and major news organizations understand that the plan is for the govt to dismantle them. They do not care if you fire your columnists or discipline staff for accurately quoting Kirk. They just want us all gone.
In a Hitleresque speech, JD Vance says there can be no unity with the left and vows to use the government to dismantle non-profit NGOs and liberal civil society who he says promote violence and terrorism.

Q: My condolences on the loss of your friend Charlie Kirk. How are you holding up?
TRUMP: I think very good. And by the way, right there you see all the trucks. They just started construction of the new ballroom for the White House, which is something they've been trying to get for about 150 years.

Charlie Kirk was shot during an audience Q&A. I swear that the following transcript is real.
Question: "Do you know how many mass shooters there have been in America over the last ten years?"
Charlie Kirk: "Counting or not counting gang violence?"
He was shot a split second later.
