To be clear, folks who grew up in nature definitely get on a mystical nature kick but it sounds totally different. A forest isn't a place they associate with peaceful serenity, it is a place where life and death weave an invisible dance connecting everything past and present; powerful but dangerous.
You can always tell when folks who didn't grow up in nature are getting into a mystical nature kick because they talk about forests like they're these serene, perfect, peaceful places. No friend, nature is scary and tense as fuck and you're looking at a place where things live and die BY THE MINUTE.

These are the people who forged Electoral College vote certificates and tried to pass them off as real, right in front of the whole country.
Maybe the most insane crime of them all.

I think tonight shows why “moderate to win elections” is a real risk
the big divide in the Dem caucus, as many have noted, has been less moderate vs progressive than fight versus don’t fight
but it’s not a coincidence that basically everyone in the “don’t fight” camp is a moderate

Unless Democratic Senators who voted no on the #Schumersurrender today explicitly call for Schumer to resign or step aside - they all own this cave. Just pushing out performative posts and press releases don’t count for much anymore. Enough.
Since the Democrats worked extra hard to hide who actually supported this, I think the No Kings/Resistance position should be to primary every Democrat unless they publicly call for Schumer's ouster this week
Either they go into total rebellion mode, which they won't, or the people will

Call a Senator that voted no tonight and demand that they vote to remove Chuck Schumer as Senate Minority Leader.
He has weaponized his incompetence against the American people by allowing 8 Dem Senators to cave to an authoritarian regime. We need real leadership, not the oligarchy’s lapdog

Schumer can be removed from his Dem leadership role this week - 23 Dems (and/or independents) just have to vote to depose him
And they should, given this is his fault.
And they should, given this is his fault.
This is a lovely sentiment but Schumer isn't up for re-election until 2028 and he knows this. At which point he will be 77/78. There's no mechanism to recall a sitting senator AFAIK.

VA Senate president pro tem absolutely rips MD Senate president for opposing redistricting.
Notably, VA Dems win massively *after* pushing for a new map.
And that's how it's supposed to work: There has to be an election after an amendment is proposed so voters can weigh in before it can proceed.

Nick Fuentes, a person who once called Adolf Hitler “awesome,” has more than 1 million followers on Elon Musk’s X.
Now, he finds himself a central figure in an online battle over the future of the American conservative movement.
