In 2023 I became obsessed with videos of dads in cargo shortswaiting in parking lots during Taylor Swift's Eras Tour. So when she came to town, I grabbed a camera and headed down to talk to them. I thought it'd be funny. It turned out to be something else entirely.

January 6 was like a much dumber version of Hitler’s Beer Hall Putsch and yet a plurality of American voters were like, Yeah, let’s give that guy the nuke codes again. An absolutely world historical debacle of societal ignorance. I’ll never understand it.

Between the speech, the Truth Social posts, the press-availability rants, and the presidential photo plaques, it's as if Trump is trying to surround himself with his own opinions, the way hoarders want to surround themselves with their own junk.

Since I haven’t seen anyone mention this: When the U.S. commits war crimes it puts our troops in danger also, as it gives a green light to other countries that they can do the same to us

I study fascism. I’ve already fled America.
On this week’s “More To The Story,” former Yale philosophy professor Jason Stanley explains his recent move to Canada and calls the Trump administration’s takeover of the US government a “coup.”

This is an important new line being crossed. Trump isn't just pardoning the act of attempting to overthrow the government on January 6: he's pardoning *those people* for committing crimes generally. He may be creating a group of (federally) legally untouchable people.
Trump re-pardons a Jan. 6 defendant to erase unrelated gun conviction

The new pardon ends a legal clash over the limits of Trump’s sweeping Day One clemency for those who stormed the Capitol.

When I explain that boycotting an election over an issue has never once forced a politician to embrace that issue, I'm not "scolding people to vote." I'm explaining reality.

The thing about the East Wing is simply this: he should have asked. Whatever else might be said about it, he should have asked—just like we were all taught in kindergarten. If I were going to do messaging around the issue for normie voters, this would be it.

Has Mike Johnson ever considered holding his daily presser an hour later to give him time to read a paper?
Q: What's your reaction to yesterday's purge of senior ICE officials? When is it time for Congress to do some oversight?
MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know any of the details of that yet. I just heard about that, literally I was walking in.

Nobel committee needs to back channel to him that they'll for sure think about it if he calls off Invasion America.
Johnson: "Together with my friend Speaker Ohana of the Israeli Knesset we're going to rally speakers and presidents of parliaments around the world so we will jointly nominate President Donald J Trump for next year's Nobel Prize. No one has ever deserved that prize more & that is an objective fact."

This is my husband. The most craven liars and adulterers and cheaters and grifters are putting our kids and teachers through this. Yeah I’m angry, why do you ask.
As a teacher I have had to watch kids crying during lockdowns. One year a swat team went door to door and my students had to vouch to these armored guys with long guns that they knew me and I wasn’t the shooter. This country is deeply immoral.

I entered the Biden era making 36k/yr, and left it making 50k because the Biden NLRB let us form a union.
Def was my experience as a millennial in the Biden Boom years. I entered the pandemic with basically zero net worth and exited Biden's Presidency as a homeowner with several hundred thousand in net worth. 2021 and 2022 were the highest earning years in my career
The received standard tale of Millennials' economic woe is obsolete.
