This article is incredible. I'm so sorry that you feel dominated by "the political power" of the metro area that has 2/3 of the state's population and produces $350 billion of the state's $383 billion GDP while you're having your liquid breakfast down at Ye Olde Pickle Factory "most days" 🤷♂️

okay but like. Surely that pales in comparison to the number of urban people who feel misunderstood by rural people, and who also are genuinely, factually, verifiably misunderstood by rural people, and who also are literally being shortchanged in terms of the tax money they pay and receive?
"Misunderstood" lol who fucking cares? What does that have to do with anything? You're all retired and day-drinking! What exactly are you not getting that you think you deserve?

There’s a big assumption by every politician and haughty dipshit in this country that you can kick anyone to the left of Mitt Romney in the teeth indefinitely and they’ll never do anything about it and that’s incredibly dangerous

The Minnesota shooting case is now metastasizing unlike any i've ever seen. The successive resignations of heads of the crim section at CRD and 3 top career prosecutors in Minn -- who had hung in all this year n/w/stg multiple outrages-- means the Department is in open revolt in DC and the field.

Trump's thugs are going hog wild and tossing gas around in one of the busiest commercial districts in Minneapolis, just a mile or so from where I live. Complete insanity.

this is not a party gearing up to even pare back funding, let alone abolish ICE. I cannot stress enough that it'd be cleaner and easier to just get rid of every last one of them via primary than try to figure out which is worth saving
Democrats officially going all in on the mealy mouthed “ICE needs training” narrative.
No. ABOLISH ICE.
No. ABOLISH ICE.
WARNER: It used to take 5 to 6 months to get trained. They've now lowered the training period to 47 days. Why 47 days? Because Donald Trump's the 47th president. Tell me that's a rational approach
KERNEN: I'm not taking that bait
WARNER: Joe! You can't pick your facts

The past couple days have made it clear that arresting and prosecuting Johnathan Ross isn’t just the right thing to do, it is necessary to prevent future violence by ICE who have interpreted the situation as “we can do that to whoever we want”
A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."
The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"
"Learned what?" she asks
Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

I could not ask for a more perfect representation of the core fascist philosophy: the anti-intellectualism of moral nihilism conjoined with a lingering sense that power is all that *should* matter and any exceptions to this crude worldview must be furiously destroyed.
"We live in a world, in the real world … that is governed by strength, that is governed by force, that is governed by power. These are the iron laws of the world since the beginning of time."
And with these words, Stephen Miller damns his soul to hell for all eternity.

Of course the ENTIRE PREMISE of modernity is that we've found an alternative to the law of the strong

Here is the Trump Doctrine, as articulated by Stephen Miller in his truly frightening interview with Jake Tapper this afternoon. It is very much like the doctrine of the dictators we fought and defeated in World War II and of Putin today. It is un-American at its very core.

It’s genuinely wild that the United States spent decades building an elaborate rules-based international order which de facto cemented its permanent status as the dominant global hegemon, sustained by ideology rather than might, and now is just blowing it all up for literally no reason

one of my recent preoccupations is the visceral hostility the MAGA right has for the histories and traditions of the United States. these are people who spit on the Declaration and salute third-rate European despots!
It's striking that progressives like Tim Walz and Zohran Mamdani evoke the middle American attitude that, "Yes, we can fix these social problems because we're Americans and it's the right thing to do!" While the "America first" right only emulates failed and failing nation-states elsewhere.

The scary but obvious explanation for this is that the powers that be who control our news media disagree with Jeremiah Wright and they agree with Curtis Yarvin
so old i remember an entire summer where obama had to distance himself from jeremiah wright. i dont think the msm has ever once asked trump or vance about yarvin.
Curtis Yarvin, JD Vance’s friend & ideological influence, ended 2025 by claiming “only Hitler spoke the truth” about “too many subjects” & “Hitler was a genius.”
Extremism isn’t fringe on the right. Once marginal online extremists like Yarvin are influential at the highest levels of government.

If you’re a journalist who’s still on Twitter, from now on in your writing you have to replace “the American people want” with “troll bots in Eastern Europe demand”
Being there makes your judgment suspect. I don’t care how savvy you think you are, you’re marinating in a disinformation campaign.
