An essential development over the past decade-plus is that the ignorant went from feeling chastened when their ignorance was revealed to banding together and deciding that, actually, they were right. They might disagree at times, but they agreed that ignorance itself was an indicator of trust.

something very important for Dems to realize is that the tech overlords are not people you can win back by promising a lighter touch and saying a few nice things
they’ve gotten a taste of mask-off fascism and they are not going back, they don’t want to play nice with the peons anymore

There’s a funny Politico story showing that the latest polling on AI shows 80-20 in favor of heavy regulations, an absolute slam dunk platform, but Dems are worried about not winning back mask-off tech CEO donors

Alfonsi was very respectful when she explained that you can't hold an investigative piece because the government refuses to comment because that's giving the government a veto. It only sounded condescending because it's so fucking obvious.
During today's editorial call, Bari Weiss doubled down on pulling the CECOT segment while lashing out at Sharyn Alfonsi:
"The only newsroom that I'm interested in running is one where we are able to have contentious disagreements about the thorniest and editorial matters, and do so with respect."

The only way the files were gonna be released is if they were completely scrubbed of anything that could hurt the regime politically. Feels like a farce.

This is the thing that really gets me. I have absolutely zero doubt whatsoever that if we elect another milquetoast centrist business as usual establishment democrat they will not revert a single one of these things.
There's a series of things (like the ballroom, Gulf of America) that we're going to have to *undo* the moment this guy is out of office.
And yet I can already hear future Democrat presidents saying "I'm focused on the people's work, not the knucklehead stuff" and just leave this man's shit up.

Muting a Black woman to claim the vote was unanimous is so incredibly on the nose
The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.
