Business rent is way too high on Mag (not Miracle) Mile so companies are just shuffling around. H&M moved two blocks down the road to save cash.
He's blaming "murder and crime" in one of the safest parts of the city because the real problem is "landlords." Almost like that's the whole gambit.

Nasty little secret: Eugenicist and white supremacist fantasy writers where once the norm rather than the exception - a swamp of racist metaphor and dog whistles - back in the day. Perfect place, perfect way, to indoctrinate the susceptible and prop up the willing fellow travelers.
The far right is obsessed with Lord of the Rings and Musk keeps posting about "hobbits" because modern scientific racism owes more to fantasy worlds and gaming systems than genetic science, and they see both as effective mediums for right-wing propaganda www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...

This is will be the 5th forever chemical they have approved this year, and it takes thousands of years to break down. It cannot be filtered out of water with most filtration methods, and it easily moves throughout the environment via water or in the atmosphere. It is increasingly detected in humans.

During his campaign, Trump (& RFK) promised to rein in the use of dangerous pesticides, but the EPA has loosened oversight and is accelerating pesticide approvals.
Notably, the top 4 positions in the new Trump EPA’s chemical safety office are held by former pesticide and chemical industry lobbyists

Big government, big corporate, big sports. We are all just pawns in the game.

I do think this is a point of radicalization because a lot of angry, angry normal people were ready to dig in and suffer a lot in order to make fascists suffer a little, and their resolution was sold out and made into a mockery

Been here and sincere for the last ten years. Trump doesn’t do governing. He is in service of international organized crime. We have to kick THEM out. WE the PEOPLE. “Why us?” you may ask. Because it’s the mob. They have worked to infiltrate, degrade, corrupt and destroy all forms of law

There is a special hell just for Joe Lieberman, and Joe Manchin, and Joe McCarthy, and a bunch of other regular Joe’s
the Rosetta Stone of dem politics is the 2006 senate primary which incumbent Joe Lieberman lost in part for making out with George Bush
He ran anyway, won with GOP support, dems let him keep his seniority, chairmanships and perks & he rewarded them by obstructing the ACA & killing the public option

An important question you cannot skip over in pursuit of the Primary Them All solution is: how likely is it that defeating entitled narcissists in a primary will actually stop them from running?

This reminds me of his pitch for Trump’s miracle cure “signature” vitamin supplements in 2009, which were available for a bargain price if you signed up for a membership with the Trump Network and submitted a urine test because they customized them to your needs. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Trump: "I want the money to go into an account for people where they buy their own health insurance. It's so good. The insurance will be better. It'll cost less. Everybody is gonna be happy. They're gonna feel like entrepreneurs. They're actually able to go out & negotiate their own insurance"

END all ICE contracts!
There was a similar thermostatic anti-287(g) backlash during Trump 1.0. On a local levels, non-cooperation policies have had enormous success in recent years. Unfortunately, that has also led to a backlash, with multiple GOP states *mandating* cooperation through new state laws.
NEW: Dems easily flipped the sheriff's office in Pennsylvania's Bucks County, a big swing county in the Philly suburbs.
So? The incumbent GOP sheriff had contracted with ICE. His Dem challenger promised to end the contract.
Now he wants other swing-state Dems to look at his victory as a lesson:
