It's not just that the United States has stopped trying to promote liberal democratic ideas internationally. It's that the United States is actively trying to promote the contrary. It's trying to turn more countries into Hungary.

Marjorie Taylor Greene is just one of the marginalized MAGA American activists who are concerned because Trump is doing exactly what they elected him to do.

The far right is obsessed with Lord of the Rings and Musk keeps posting about "hobbits" because modern scientific racism owes more to fantasy worlds and gaming systems than genetic science, and they see both as effective mediums for right-wing propaganda www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...

One edited video of Trump is institutional bias and the BBC Director General and Head of News have had to resign. Yet hundreds and hundreds of cases of fully documented institutional bias towards a state committing genocide didn’t have any impact at all. The BBC are finished.

Imagine actually believing that too much empathy is a core Western value.
I helped make a film, out this week, called “Rovina’s Choice,” about the deaths this man without conscience or accountability has caused — already 600,000, ⅔ of them children.

All day, many of you have been asking for a Cheney obituary from me. Get ready:

As much as the Trumpists claim to disavow the War on Terror, they walk a path paved by the most powerful vice president in U.S. history.

The New York Times quickly sending out Douthat to argue that Mamdani’s victory doesn’t really matter is so predictable it borders on self-parody.

Remember, folks: Every time the Right wins an election, it’s an undeniable expression of the will of the people. If a lefty wins, it’s just a blip.

Assuming this means he voted for Cuomo, the ostensible opposition leader voted against his own party for the candidate Trump endorsed. Disqualifying.
Q: It's election day in NYC. Did you vote for Mamdani or Cuomo?

Schumer: "Look, I voted, and I look forward to working with the next mayor to help NYC."
