Elon Musk, the richest man in the world and an open white supremacist, has a child's understanding of how government works. He has fired tens of thousands of people and believes all taxation and spending are illegitimate. He thinks his financial assistance to Trump gives him the power to set policy.

Another failure of the Obama era democratic majority. When Obama was elected to his first term, ICE as an agency had existed for only 5 years. Instead we handed over an army of racist hogs to Donald Trump
All of these violent, lawless ICE officers terrorizing communities and hiding their faces weren't just hired this year.

It's why dismantling ICE as an agency was so important and remains so. These people are unfit to be public servants if they hate the public.

Spanking does not produce good behavior. Authoritarian violence -- and make no mistake, that's what it is when you hit your kid, even if you tell yourself it's "just a swat" -- produces little authoritarians, full of fear & suppressed anger.

(I know Kendra knows this.)
I just listened to a very popular radio show say that we need to bring back spanking and maybe kids would be better behaved and it would keep people out of prison and OK sure but crime was higher when spanking was a norm.

Imagine the universe where the Emperor decided to replace Stormtroopers with these guys instead of building the Death Star

Nostalgia in politics can work for more than one thing, it doesn't only have to be a guy saying "Don't you miss being racist" it could be a different guy saying "Remember when people had pensions"

"Scientific insiders." You mean...scientists? The people who do science and understand it? I'm not saying they're beyond suspicion, but when I look at the US over the past 20 years, I do not have the impression that our major problem is that _scientists_ have too much power.
Utterly psychotic. RFK's "unfounded beliefs and suspicions" are what separate him from legitimate critics of science and public health, he fucking lies all the time!

You can't say "he might have a point" about the parts you agree with and ignore everything else.

its genuinely incredible that the government has been taken over by vandals, thieves, and bald-faced liars and the media is more or less reporting on them like they're normal heads of state

Social mobility has been declining for decades but that's fine, we don't need the talents of 340 million people as long as we have the several dozen children of our stupidest oligarchs

Contrary to media reports, a significant portion of working-class Boomer wealth will not be handed down within families. The capitalist class has been preparing to intercept this for decades and has already begun doing so through both forced debt schemes and medical/elderly care.

I feel like the reason the GOP keeps trying to ban porn is because the porn they like is already banned.

There are legitimate issues with the pharmaceutical industry and how it's regulated; the wellness industry is even more predatory, like it's not even close. Woo woo bullshit on par with leeches and humors

trump throws out shit like this all the time because an important part of his electoral coalition are low information voters that think he's pursuing moderate or even left-wing policy. republicans and trump laugh and laugh at these types of voters! they think its hilarious how easy they are to fool
The messages Donald Trump is sending about a proposal to increase taxes on the wealthiest Americans aren’t just mixed; they’re actually inscrutable.

"In any event, Republicans should probably not do it [tax increases], but I’m OK if they do!!!” ??
Cognitive Decline? Try to Decipher Trump’s Rant on Taxing the Rich
Donald Trump rambled on about raising taxes (or not?) on the wealthy.

People assuming that the government doesn't work is the result of ~50 years of nonstop conservative slander and propaganda with minimal pushback. Big Tech guys coming in and expecting to find massive fraud with no real value seems like a case of projection
Interesting piece which reveals a lot of the tech bro ignorance of government: DOGEr comes in, expects to find lots of inefficiency, is at least willing to acknowledge he was wrong unlike the hard core ideologues.
