You don't have to listen to these professional liars who are barely trying. 9 months ago they were saying they were powerless to return a man they illegally sent to an El Salvador gulag because it would violate that country's national sovereignty
Vance pushes back and says this was not illegal, arguing "Maduro has multiple indictments in the United States for narcoterrorism. You don't get to avoid justice for drug trafficking in the United States because you live in a palace in Caracas."

the broad inability to leave a social media platform owned by a white supremacist and prolific manipulator of public perception really is one of the most discouraging data points right now

What is the point of having a sprawling national security state if they can’t find out who did a mass shooting in broad daylight five days ago?

It's going to feel so good "renaming" the Kennedy Center and demolishing the "ballroom" when he's gone.

It’s wild how there’s several different videos of several different establishment democrats giving public talks where they say “it’s a shame young people can see videos of war crimes online because they’re missing the context behind the war crimes”
Hillary Clinton blames TikTok and “totally made up” videos for young people’s views on Israel and Palestine.
She says social media influenced “not just the usual suspects” but also “young Jewish Americans who don’t know the history and don’t understand.”

If at least 26 billionaires can waste at least $27 million trying to defeat Zohran Mamdani, then those same billionaires can afford to pay an extra 2% on their income over $1 million to make New York a better, thriving city for everyone — including themselves.

Hasan: The great irony is of course that Donald Trump is the son of an immigrant. The grandson of an immigrant and married to an immigrant. In fact two of his three wives were immigrants, proving yet again that immigrants will do the jobs that even Americans are not willing to do.

Trump found another $20 BILLION to give to Argentina, totaling their bailout to $40 BILLION.
Yet we can’t afford to prevent millions of Americans from losing their healthcare.

Trump repeatedly presenting "I don't love my enemies" as a fun little lovable foible is straight-up Satanic, he is normalizing complete disregard for a central pillar of Christ's message
ERIKA KIRK: He did pray for his enemies, which is very hard, but he did

This was revealing. Worth reading. The basic demand is that Coates spend less time thinking/writing his true feelings and more time playing political strategist. Klein asks him over and over him to do Dem strategy; he says no, over and over. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/28/o...

Kirk's success with young people has always been overplayed. They have trended to the right - not in huge numbers, but you don't need much. That is mostly due to independent factors. He is little or nothing to do with it. He took credit and made money. His main audience is older.
This is fascinating, 94% of college students had heard of Charlie Kirk - and 70% of those who heard of him disagreed with him puck.news/what-college...

New data from Generation Lab undercuts Trump’s mythmaking about his murdered ally, who was unquestionably a savvy organizer, even if he wasn’t at all popular on the campuses he loved to visit.
