I want people to understand that in my youth, a youth that happened somewhere between the youth of Epstein, Trump, Maxwell, ex-Prince Andrew, et al & that of their victims, the term "jail bait" was framed as a compliment.

All day, many of you have been asking for a Cheney obituary from me. Get ready:
His Works Completed, Dick Cheney, Mass Murderer of Iraqis and American Democracy, Dies
As much as the Trumpists claim to disavow the War on Terror, they walk a path paved by the most powerful vice president in U.S. history.

If you are a Democratic senator watching these results and the lesson you take is "I should cave and help Republicans reopen the government for nothing more than a promise written on toilet paper" then you shouldn't be in the Senate anymore
These big wins will embolden Dems to take on Trump's lawbreaking and show there's a price for GOP enabling of him. Folks hate to hear this, but normal patterns are asserting themselves: Liberalism isn't dead, Rs are likely to lose in 2026, and Trump is really unpopular, not a magical exception.

If we had lost Virginia, there was a very real chance that we’d be losing abortion access in the state, which would be a disaster especially for us in DC, which couldn’t possibly absorb all those patients.
Watching with my abortion fund board member hat on, these results are a tremendous relief.

Looks like the Dems will pick up 12 seats in the VA House of Delegates, which will go from 51-49 to 63-37 D-R. That's an honestly shocking result.

Yesterday, I saw Musk's biographer Walter Isaacson wheeled out for a TV interview under the chyron "Musk: Back to Business" and it really feels like the media is entirely happy to go along with a concerted PR effort to increase Musk's finances by downplaying what he did to your government.
Elon Musk, who once called himself President Trump’s "first buddy," said he is ending his government work to spend more time on his companies.

One of the funniest things about deeply knowing a period of history is seeing its well-known protagonists for what they actually were rather. The Romans of the late Republic? Very Special Boys who benefited materially from centuries of imperial domination, not towering giants of competence.

Newsom is a fascist collaborator. He knows Trump has weaponized federal funding to curtail speech they disapprove of. Bringing Hollywood under federal subsidy like this would put film production under Trump's control. Have a queer kiss or a trans character? Funding pulled.

Ah, but that's just it: the oligarchs don't want more innovation. They want the current wealth & power structure to be frozen in place for as long as possible, and they think that removing a building's structural support is the best way to preserve your spot on the top floor.
Thinking about devastating cuts to NSF: US gov-funded science has been the engine upon which most of the tech wealth was generated. But the oligarchs (currently hoarding much of that $) think it’s their own brilliance & not the accident of standing close to the scientific engine that made them rich.
