I honestly believe the most powerful Republicans and a cabal of tech oligarchs led by Thiel are just trying to keep Trump alive and viable through the end of the year so that they can “secure” the midterms and then install Vance. It’s not implausible at all.
For those unaware, a quick primer on perhaps the most dangerous of the oligarchs.

Severance season 3's release date is confirmed to be ages away, but larger plays for the "universe" seem questionable as well.

I hate this era I’m living in. Thanks social media and the kids who unfortunately grew up as an early adopters of it.
Braden Peters, known as Clavicular, has emerged as a beacon for a group of narcissistic, status-obsessed young men. He wants to take his fixation with “looksmaxxing” mainstream.

Dipped into #SuperBowlLX for about ten minutes. No real offense—two teams that I’m not sure really belong there. Mawkish commercials. I can watch Bad Bunny on You Tube tomorrow. Back to the DVR…

America’s current president is also its racist, sundowning, greedy, Dirty Grandpa. And his Cabinet are a mix of Internet trolls, misguided losers and the “Blaines” and “Brads” from 80’s teen flick. #Trump

Jeffrey Epstein was the go to underaged sex trafficker for the rich and the famous. Alex Pretti was murdered by rogue paramilitary officers. So was Rachel Good. Trump is a fascist who is trying to steal the midterms to “make up” for 2020. Catherine O’Hara died. We are still living in hell I guess.

As a distraction from both the Epstein Files and a stagnant (worsening) economy, I have to admit trying to invade Greenland—part of NATO—is audacious as hell. #Trump

I always get mad when people talk about what a “terrible candidate” Kamala was. Was she perfect? No—no one is. She ran a remarkable race under terrible circumstances and everything she warned us about in Trump 2.0 is coming to pass….

The discourse on Threads from people who identify as Black and say they hated One Battle After Another because it portrays Black women badly and/or doesn’t portray Black men at all is making me crazy. I’m Black and loved it. It is mostly a satire of identity politics and the hypocrisy of revolution.

It’s very American to shame the woman more than the guy.
I think some sympathy and self-criticism is not out of place here, but you do have to find a way to acknowledge that the main reason the video went viral in the first place is because it was very funny
At a Coldplay concert in July, Kristin Cabot appeared on the Jumbotron in the arms of her boss. Cabot retreated, trying to make things right with the people who mattered most. Now, for first time since that viral moment, Cabot is sharing her side of the story. trib.al/I8tWdU4

The NFL can afford to go to a 50-man game day roster, a 10-man practice squad and a greater percentage of guaranteed salary if they want an 18-game season so badly. Callous greed is why it pushes the latter at the expense of the former.
The football gods are cruel. Or, are they trying to tell us something?

As NFL stars deal with season-ending injuries, let’s end the 18-game season talk
Yes, these injuries could've happened in Week 1 as easily as Week 15. But why heighten the risk with an extra regular-season game?

When you find yourself agreeing with Rand Paul more than a third of the time, you start to question whether we’re now living in a simulation or if the rest of the GOP has become that unhinged?
Rand Paul on mid-decade redistricting: "I think it's gonna lead to more civic tension & possibly more violence in our country. Think about it: if 35% of Texas is solidly Democrat & they have 0 representation, how does that make Democrats feel? I think it makes them feel they're not represented"

The question is not whether or not the Trump administration is authorizing and committing war crimes. (And many other crimes.) The question is what our government is going to do about it. That’s the piece that’s missing in Trump 2.0.

I listen to the NYT The Daily pod all the time while I work. Generally, they do a great job. But their weakness is one tied to the Times itself…as “the paper of record”, they tie themselves into knots to be as inoffensive as possible. It makes many people think Trump isn’t racist or senile—

Just because our SCOTUS says the President is above the law while in office (basically…and how did this work for Biden?), him authorizing the murder of foreign citizens and making war plans against Venezuela without Congressional authorization should be at least worth a conversation, right? #Trump
