I love Michael Hobbes.
One of the defining features of our political era is straightforward conservatives pretending to be ideologically complex.
Instead of absorbing this baldly obvious fact, this entire magazine is dedicated to repeating their own lie about themselves.

This man's entire job is to classify one-dimensional right-wing movements as far too complicated to place on the ideological spectrum.

Yes. I have lost count of the white male friends and acquaintances who have tried to convince me they are disadvantaged because of DEI. Good grief. Thank you Michael for posting this. Data. It’s handy for understanding the world.
Incredible what you find when you start looking for data on the "white men can't get jobs anymore" phenomenon

Reminds me of how the Koch brothers funded the “grass roots” tea party.

Yes. Cops are not great at solving crimes as we all know.
The people wondering "how could anyone who isn't a professional escape after a high profile daylight assassination" are forgetting two things:
1. Cops are bad at their jobs
2. The FBI used to be somewhat better at their jobs and were recently gutted by political layoffs

Even if you don’t agree with everything she says I am begging Dem party leadership to LISTEN to Sarah Longwell because she knows what voters want. She does two voter focus groups a week! So frustrating to hear her advice and knowing they ignore her—at OUR peril.

Mike Duncan is a terrific historian podcaster. Everyone should listen to his short series on the American Revolution (season 2 of “Revolutions.”) I know we all took American history somewhere along the line but I guarantee you will be amazed at the parallels to today. And it’s fascinating.

Well that got me thinking…in a good way.
BigBallsBadNight was a ruse, at best. WTF was he doing out at 3 am in the only spot in DC without surveillance video? Donnie is nervous. The peasants are revolting. Versaille's gold decor didn't save the French nobility, Donnie. No one is impressed by your fake gold & your fake leadership.
