Ron and Cassie DeSantis: These two crooks stole $10 million from a settlement with a charity, wired it to Cassie’s fake “charity,” laundered it through two puppet organizations, and then used it for political ads in an election year. They should be in jail.

A lot of us in USA would be well served to recall that when we look back on that era we don't call it Germany With Some Nazis we call it Nazi Germany. We don't distinguish between people who silently disapproved or didn't like it but accepted it. We lump them in with the Nazis. And that is correct.

"The vision Kat was offering wasn’t about carving the electorate into pieces and deciding which ones to fight for. It was the radical (apparently) idea that a better world is possible for everyone, and that a political party should be in the business of trying to build one." Bingo. And great essay.

They called Alex Pretti a "domestic terrorist" and only backtracked because witnesses had NFL-like coverage of the incident. This is repression carried out by the state for electoral purposes. It's about stamping out your objections to their autocratic aims.

Some Dems are getting this right. But Schumer and others are saying Trump must merely divulge more details about the Iran threat. This implies there might be a legitimate case for war that Trump just has to be more open about. There's zero reason to grant that. 3/ newrepublic.com/article/2072...

Important piece on Rogan. He's just Rush Limbaugh on different pharmaceuticals at this point. And citing him is like citing Grok and the one or two good X Community Notes a month. It just legitimates the ruse that he's not a partisan actor.

Sarah Huckabee Sanders appointed 2 supreme court justices to "cement" court's conservative majority. Arkansas' constitution banned them from seeking a full term for their own seat. They decided to circumvent that by... running for each other. This Tuesday, one of them faces challenger John Adams:

When Trump came to power, he ripped up the peace deal that Obama had made, and used the uncertainty he created as an excuse to bomb Iran, insisting he had ended the problem he had created once and for all, except now he's bombing them again to solve the problem he created and previously solved?

He is going to pound the table with all the ways he made life for trans people in the US hell, like Hitler bragging he rid Germany of the Jews.

Remember when Neal Katyal argued it was constitutional for a county that foreclosed on a 94 year old woman's house because she owed back taxes to keep 100% of the proceeds of the sale? She owed 15K. The sale was 40K. The county kept the full 40K. Neal lost. That was too much even for SCOTUS.
