If enough kids stayed home and schools had to go back to Covid-style remote classes, this might actually get Maga to support ICE way less. The last thing they want is to stay home with their kids again.

Nearly 21,000 Charlotte-Mecklenburg students absent from school on Monday, officials say
Officials did not make it clear if the absences were connected to the on-going immigration operation in the city.

Guys who think of themselves as "intellectuals" are some of the biggest creeps in the world.
Ah, yes, the elites we’re supposed to admire.

Clinton should come out and say "yeah he blew me" (true or not). He could save the country. It's literally the one thing they would never forgive Trump for.

The 50 year mortgage idea kind of proves Maga are capable of having critical thought but only if it personally affects them. They can tell when the leopards are eating their own face which is more credit than I've previously given them.

Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer.

He is a computer safety researcher.

And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine.

In under 1600 words.

I hate that progressism isn't willing to take baby steps when the alternative is literally Trump. The Harris resistance libs at least understood how much worse Trump is.
Let this moment be a wakeup call to stop taking some of the far-left seriously.

Mamdani isn't good enough for them. Nor is Rep. AOC. Nor is Sen. Sanders. No one is good enough for them.

If there are no long-term consequences for Disney and ABC, companies will keep bending the knee.

Disagree. They lost the non Maga when they caved. Now they'll also lose Maga when they try to get the sane people back. Would be better if this served as a cautionary tale you couldn't undo.
I can’t wait to see Disney’s stock on Monday. They said Kimmel could be brought back as soon as Monday. Let’s strongly incentivize them to do so.

I predict some time in my life, Charlie Kirk Remberence Day will be changed to a broader "Gun Violence Day of Remberence" and more centered on the lost children. I also predict Maga will be furious.

Imagine if celebrities just left Twitter, as well. It'd be as much of a ghost town as Truth Social. Entertainers are where the power lies in this.
Imagine if every actor with a show on ABC went on strike.

If someone says they are antifa, it just means they are anti fascist, just like someone saying they are vegan, means they don't eat animals. "Veganism" isn't an organization, either.

Any Maga grifter who grew up in cultural centers are going to be so bored with the idocracy monoculture.
There is a perverse justice in that Trump would, in his heart of hearts, much rather watch musical theater with the queers than watch a NASCAR race with his rube supporters with whom he is damned to be bound to for the rest of his days.
This is awful, of course, but it kind of stood out to me that Trump clearly doesn't give a shit. Not even a "looking into it very strongly", just yeah, whatever you say, it's probably illegal, eh

This happened in Utah, would be crazy if Charlie Kirk's killer turned out to be Mormon, since Kirk criticized the LDS Church as being not a real Christian Church. How would the right spin it, if so.

Imagine seeing this and then buying a Trump branded Bible, but Maga will
Would you let your underage daughter be alone in a room with the man who sent this fawning, naked-girl-featuring birthday card to the most infamous child sex trafficker of his generation (who at the time was the card-sender’s best friend)?

No?

Then why is he still president?

Tylennol may very well have some effect on autism rates, but it's interesting that the age of the father isn't being brought up by Maha. The effect is magnified apparently if the father is 10 years older than the mother:

The President of the United States is threatening to go to war with an American city.

This is not a joke. This is not normal.

Donald Trump isn't a strongman, he's a scared man. Illinois won’t be intimidated by a wannabe dictator.
