I don’t want to see any of these rw influencers killed. What I’d rather see is ONE of them - Fuentes, Jones, Patel, Rogan, etc - have a moment of enlightenment and realize the harm they’ve done in the world. Imagine if one of them actually apologized and decided to use their platform for good?

His enemies spend a lot of time attacking that Mamdani’s a “social democrat.”

What makes him special, I think, is that he’s an authentically moral person with empathy.

That’s sadly rare in politics these days.
Mamdani: "I speak of Renee Good, whose final words to the man who murdered her were, 'I'm not mad at you.' I speak of Alex Pretti who died as he lived, caring for the stranger. ICE shot him bc he did something they could never fathom ... let us offer a new path: one of defiance through compassion."

I sincerely hate this time line.

Kristi Noem has now fixated on a 5 year child.

They're trying to expedite the deportation of Liam Conejo Ramos.

Because the first time they kidnapped and traumatized him wasn't enough.

They have to do it again.

Tariffs on various imported goods, which the Trump administration has levied and waived regularly, are one of the tent-pole issues of his second-term economic policy.

Fifty-nine percent of respondents said they disapprove — the highest of either of Trump's terms in office and a higher level of disapproval than his predecessor, Joe Biden, measured at any point during his presidency.

This allows the other car companies to use batteries without the investment of building a battery factory.
LG also said they will be shifting focus to grid storage batteries.

This is good news for Canada IMO.
South Korean LG is taking over complete control of the factory.
Stellantis cannot be trusted in any way.
And now that the factory is entirely owned by a company that does not make cars it opens up the possibility of selling to other

In related news about the Washington Post and the state of journalism today, Amazon "ran a $1.2 billion tax bill last year, down from $9 billion the previous year, even as its profits jumped by 45% to nearly $90 billion."

That's in the wake of the 2025 tax bill

Amazon's tax bill plunges after GOP tax cuts
The 87 percent drop is largely due to a more generous depreciation break in the 'One Big Beautiful Bill Act.'

@pkrugman.bsky.social - there is a deep well of decency among Americans. ICE lawless brutality & Epstein should be linked by Dems. Epstein shows an arrogant elite that believes they are above the law. ICE shows how that elite thinks everyone else should be treated. open.substack.com/pub/paulkrug...

Republicans Losing The Senate Too

Trump warned he would be Impeached if they lose the House.

A Democratic takeover of the Senate would be a political shock, neuter his last two years, and could lead to Removal after Impeachment.

Private GOP polls show it's possible.

“.. While there is quite a bit of attention on AI driving layoffs, most of the reasons cited in this data set are about ‘closing,’ ‘economic conditions,’ ‘restructuring,’ and ‘loss of contract.’ AI is a comparatively small factor behind the January jump in layoff news.”

CNN: "New data shows January was the lowest months for job cuts since the 2009 Great Recession...layoffs way up, hiring ways down. During the month of January, US-based employers announced just over 108,000 layoffs. That's roughly double January 2025. In fact, this is the highest since January 2009"
