If you had important information for voters, and kept it to yourself to sell books after it was too late, you’re not a hero. You’re an asshole.

Yeah, the fixation on the fucking doll thing is about gender. It's invoking the misogynist concept of the "ungrateful female" in order to justify a very stupid policy that hurt everyone.
Trump: "A young lady -- 10 year old girl, 9 year old girl, 15 year old girl -- doesn't need 37 dolls. She could be very happy with 2 or 3 or 4 or 5."

Governor Shapiro’s reaction to the arson attack is on my timeline.

Ambassador Spock modeling the proper “fuck you, make me” response to intimidation tactics. Our current-day institutions could learn a lot from him.

i am fascinated by the outright refusal of people in the professional political commentary class to just consider the possibility that there is no plan and that trump really is a braying idiot with the more acute case of narcissistic personality disorder on record

I think there is going to be a Red Rural Recession and soon if all the cuts continue as is

All the firings, cancelling of grants and contracts with companies , the closing of offices, disproportionately impact small towns, cities and states.

Their finances will be turned upside

We expected 2,000 people out in GOP-held Greeley, Colorado.

11,000 people showed up.

Something special is happening, folks. Now is the time to organize in every dimension possible and get to work.

Man who raped women, defrauded people who paid his scam charitable trust & university, incited the desecration of our Capitol, defrauded banks, obstructed justice, and failed to pay taxes on his father's big estate--without *any* consequences--wants you punished if you light up one unoccupied car.

The good news about all this is if the republic actually survives, anyone claiming they want to "run government like a business" from now on will be laughed all the way off the ballot.

A US-born citizen was walking near Chicago in January. ICE snatched him off the street, handcuffed him, threw into a van. His wallet, which contained his ID, was confiscated. He was detained for 10 hours before being released without a record of what occurred.

Welcome to autocracy. The Republic we have known for the last 240 years is gone. This is going to keep getting worse. Much worse. The courts mean nothing, the law means nothing, Congress is irrelevant. He is a malignant psychopath.
