Das Manhattan Institute, ein Think Tank auf Trump-Linie, befragte Gen-Z-Republikaner, was sie so finden. Über Neonazi Nick Fuentes, über Hitler, über Juden, über Frauen. Das Ergebnis ist ziemlich grauenvoll. www.city-journal.org/article/manh...

Christmas morning
String of updates saying Donald Trump just posted on Truth Social. Barack Obama posts "Merry Christmas! Michele and I hope you have a wonderful holiday filled with light and joy." There's a photo of Barack and Michele Obama standing next to each other.

Kind of wild how the take that some of Trump's supporters were "deplorable" was some huge scandal, but regularly screaming about "radical left scum" is just a thing he'll say with no media backlash.
Donald J Trump Truth Social post: Merry Christmas to all, including the Radical Left Scum that is doing everything possible to destroy our Country, but are failing badly.

Out of curiosity, are there any fellow artists who create art inspired by vintage print/book illustrations? Would love to follow more who share my niche.
Digital illustration in the style of old print. A large two-headed beast with dark fur emerges from a cave. It lifts its heads to make eye contact with a redheaded child sitting above the cave’s entrance. Digital illustration in the style of old print. A humanoid figure wearing a red cape stands in the foreground looking over her shoulder. Behind her is various moss-covered rocks and trees. Below the illustration reads "The woods were still and quiet.” Digital illustration in the style of a vintage storybook. A pale humanoid figure wearing a red cape is in the middle of a dark forest. The trees surrounding her have circular patterns carved into their bark. She stands on the edge of a pit that is filled with a tangled mass of worm-like creatures. Below the illustration reads "The worms wriggled endlessly in the pit." Digital illustration in the style of a vintage storybook. At the edge of a forest, a girl wearing a hooded cardigan meets a long slender creature. The girl reaches out her hand as if to touch the creature's snout.

Liebe Bundesregierung, hier ist eure To-do-Liste für die Weihnachtsfeiertage: US-Botschafter einbestellen, Einreisesperre für Musk und Zuckerberg verhängen, HateAid-Etat verdoppeln. Wer jetzt schweigt, kapituliert.

“Like Prime, but with human beings.”
“We need to get better at treating this like a business,” ICE acting director Todd M. Lyons said at a border security conference in April, according to the Arizona Mirror. The administration’s goal, he said, was to deport immigrants as efficiently as Amazon moves packages: “Like Prime, but with human beings.”

The people who profited most from the cancel culture/free speech panic were less interested in actual freedom of speech than establishing their own control over public discourse. You don't even have to take my word for it. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...
Every society that has ever existed has had views that are mainstream and views that are fringe. The free-speech frauds who captured the discourse over the past decade understood this, but their true objection was that they did not unilaterally have the power to define which was which. For example, in a 2018 Times column, Weiss complained that “leftists” were engaged in a “concerted attempt to significantly redraw the bounds of acceptable thought and speech.” This was meant to sound sinister, menacing. In fact, this is politics. Every faction is always trying to “redraw the bounds of acceptable thought and speech.” In a free society, the government allows people to have those arguments. Such disputes are not a threat to free speech; they are free speech. When I say that CBS News’s Bari Weiss understood this, you needn’t take my word for it. In November, shortly after being given the reins to one of the oldest broadcast-news organizations in the country, Weiss used identical language to describe her own project: “I think it’s about redrawing the lines of what falls in the 40-yard lines of acceptable debate and acceptable American politics and culture,” Weiss said at the Jewish Leadership Conference. “And I don’t mean that in, like, a censorious, gatekeeping way.” What’s the difference between her “redrawing the lines” of acceptable speech and other people doing it? What makes one “censorious” and “gatekeeping” and the other not? Well, because she gets to decide. That’s what so much of the free-speech panic was ever about: making sure the right people were in charge of what you see, hear, and read. Notably, this has very little to do with reporting the news, which is supposed to be what CBS News does. But if the point of installing Weiss was to ensure that she would gatekeep on behalf of right-wing interests, that is precisely what she appears to be doing.
