@kevinmkruse.bsky.social The White House demolition during a federal shutdown is so on the nose for this administration. This made-for-tv miniseries just keeps writing itself.

In retrospect, it's now funny that Bernie staff were derided by elite libs as Unserious & Biden folk were portrayed as Very Serious Operators...and the Very Serious Operators then covered up Biden's cognitive decline, destroyed the Dem Party & handed the White House back to Trump

PAY ATTENTION: L.A. just got a little preview of what’s coming. No arrests. No real “threat.”

"Why are you afraid to hold any public town hall meetings in your district?
Why can you not reply to any of my emails from the last 30 days?
Why do you have an option selection requesting a reply if you don't intend to do it?"

Being a historian, people ask me if I think the US is living through Germany 1933.
I answer no, analogies are always imperfect but to me it feels more like Russia 1999: a blatant theft of state assets and liberals in a fugue state, refusing to believe the arc of progress is bending against them.

Aside from the obvious direct harm, what's so irritating is that a handful of spoiled ignorant assholes are breaking things that we all built together. They weren't content to own almost everything, they had to wreck what little they didn't own. It's vandalism on a mass scale and has to be punished

US government spending has not slowed under Trump so far, data shows
The U.S. government spent more during President Donald Trump's first month in office than it did during the same period a year ago, in a sign his cost-slashing effort has yet to reduce the nation's heavy fiscal obligations, a Reuters analysis of federal data shows.
