Left-treatlerism is such a disease. They think there's some secret way to make Trump and Republicans maximally unpopular with no collateral damage for anyone who “doesn't deserve it,” and Democrats are only refusing to press the Win Forever button out of fecklessness and stupidity.

Current US Policy:
If you’re suspected of trafficking a small amount of drugs with no evidence, we will murder you, but if you’re convicted of trafficking an enormous amount of drugs with copious evidence, we will pardon you. Because we are currently a very stupid country.

The reason this isn’t a big story for the media like it was when Biden mixed up a name isn’t because Trump has always been dumb or Trump has always been a dick or Trump has always been dumb and a dick; it’s because the media likes him
Q: Do you think it would've been fitting to lower the flags to half staff when Melissa Hortman, the Minnesota House Speaker, was gunned down by an assassin?

Interesting how much resentment this photo created from white conservatives who assumed that the dismantling of DEI meant elite schools would return to the 1940s.

The Koch brothers showed that you could get a credulous series of "the Koch brothers are pulling away from politics!!!!!" stories every two years while continuing your usual donations to Republican politicians and reactionary initiatives unabated, so no reason for Elon not to do it too
Elon Musk: Trump is in the Epstein files and the Republican Party is so corrupt I have to start a new party.

He's still directing big money to the GOP despite his acrimonious departure from the White House. He also poured tens of millions into his own super PAC.

Today in 1184 Henry VI of Germany was having a strategy meeting when the wooden second storey floor collapsed. Most of the courtiers fell through into the latrine cesspit below the ground floor, where more than 50 drowned in liquid excrement.

Funny thing is leftists are blaming Democrats for this 10 years after Hillary warned people about the danger of letting Trump nominate Supreme Court justices.
The Supreme Court just ruled that Trump can dismantle the Department of Education
Justice Sotomayor:
“That decision is indefensible..The majority is either willfully blind to the implications of its ruling or naive, but either way the threat to our Constitution’s separation of powers is grave”

40 days into hurricane season and still no hurricane preparedness plan from Sec. Noem and FEMA. In fact, they’re adding more red tape that will delay help when disaster strikes, putting lives and communities at risk.

Huh? Racism? I think people are looking for a hero right now. People want Hakeem to be that hero. Anger is from unmet expectations. I'm not saying it's rational. I just don't see it as racism.

This speaks to the limits of labels, political & otherwise.
Vought is indeed what we would label as conservative, even as he proposes radical and revolutionary theories of political power.
He is an avowed Christian, even as the story reports him trying to implement cuts that would kill millions.
