Fuck me, are we ever going to get out of the "Bill Kristol is more correct than most Democratic politicians" era?
Trump retreats on Epstein files. Three lessons:
1. It can be easier to fracture the MAGA coalition than get "responsible" Republicans to step up.
2. Democrats should fight rather than find reasons not to fight.
3. Dems need to be anti-elitist not just anti-GOP.

We used to call this stupidity. There were smart people and stupid people and we let the smart people do the things they were good at and the stupid people were taken care of and didn't need to worry about what the smart people were doing. But now we let the stupid people think they're smart.

If we learned anything from the Biden years, it’s that the electorate gives you zero points for moral high ground, respecting the norms, or bipartisanship.

sure, it sounds good, but what if we become so corrupted by our pursuit of power that we end up ruthlessly imposing a pluralistic, egalitarian society upon a reluctant country?
oh they benefit from senate malapportionment? admit new states. they gerrymander? either ban gerrymandering or do it yourself even worse. they benefit from the electoral college? time for a popular vote. they funded by a handful of billionaires? confiscate their wealth

We have had stable, professional, vouchsafed information about the physical & economic world for so long that we entirely take it for granted. It's going to be truly wild to operate in a world where quite literally no one knows for sure what is happening, where there is no fact of the matter.

Israel destroyed a Palestinian seed bank today. This is such a specific kind of evil, targeting literal hope for the future. Attempting to further alienate Palestinians from their home and land. So much destroyed just for the sake of destroying. It's awful.

Acting like this is complicated is absurd. The man knew what Epstein did, didn't care, and participated
