The argument that any Republican still willing to pass a bill through congress, even a manifestly cruel and discriminatory one, somehow deserves to be lauded for working towards “liberal democracy” is asinine.

Lorenz might genuinely be “hard to pigeonhole politically” in the way that so many right wingers claim to be. Maybe I’m just not paying all that close attention but like, what’s her deal?

It would be funnier if Trump hadn't gotten away with it bc he made it so obvious that having a special prosecutor "pull together a case" on J6 is akin to picking up toys in a baby's room and declaring "playtime happened here."

Telling that this is the kind of “socialist” sentiment that gets airtime at the Atlantic. “Socialism demands I accommodate racism,” sure, but never “socialism demands, you know, socialism.”

It takes him a full minute to stumble through a racist cliche. Low-amperage brain on this piece of shit.

“Let them fight” is one thing. Whitewashing the Nazi right by letting MTG play the victim is quite another.

If you are participating in the rehabilitation of MTG you are a fucking mark. Her defection is good insofar as it makes MAGA weaker overall but you’re kidding yourself if you think she isn’t every bit as evil as Trump.

Lmao my mind went to the same place.

It is absolutely imperative that we not forget who this woman is.

I mean, come on.

Can confirm, recently had a similar experience.

I will allow my son to ride a hoverboard while he trains for the Boston Marathon, but I will insist that he vigorously swing his arms back and forth while he does it.

Our captains of industry are brazenly self-serving and cynical, demonstrably out of touch with reality, implicated in genocide and they are breaking the law left and right.

Dems can win on “we will crush them and take their toys.”

If the Russians and Ukrainians could come together over their mutual love of drone technology, that would be a real sea change for European politics.

Insane and vile as it is, QAnon is the utopian side of MAGA and the movement’s only positive vision for the future. Without a millenarian dream of salvation, all that remains is nihilism and nazism.

also, “politics is bottom/top not left/right” might work as a slogan but is shit as analysis. who is the bottom? who is the top? who constitutes an “elite” and who belongs to “the people?” these are important questions that have to be answered.

The fact that voters have already turned on Trump in a huge way should really throw cold water on the thesis that Democrats need to moderate and appease the MAGA base.

Odds are good that the critical mass of people needed to swing elections in ‘26 and ‘28 have already learned their lesson.
