It seems apt that on an afternoon when Pew Research shows his approval rating nearing the 40-points-underwater threshold, Trump would try to salvage matters by shouting online: *Look! N––ers!!!*

Rubio is petulantly annoyed because he gave this big speech in Athens about The Future of Western Civilization -- and coincidentally, on the very same day, his ambassador to Greece gets caught soliciting a donor to pay off her $100,000 credit-card bill.

I've been immersed in research on Reconstruction in Lousiana and it's a very difficult truth to absorb that the white terrorist movement in the South was among the most successful terrorist movements in global history. Took 10 years but it won a total & complete victory through murder and atrocity.

If Biden had been wearing some weird device, reporters would have asked questions about it. But the White House press corps fears Trump, so they don’t ask about this or the spackle covering his bruised hands.

Universities bring in foreign students ... to undercut the wages of American residents? What? This is exactly backwards. Foreign students subsidize the tuition of American students. I wonder why the VP who follows Nazis online has this all wrong. Probably an innocent, non-racist mistake.

ICE is fighting voluntary departures tooth and nail because it permits someone to seek legal re-entry to the United States. If someone is deported and they've been in the U.S. for > a yr unlawfully then there's a statutory 10-year bar on reentry. I've seen ICE *appeal* a grant of voluntary departure

Systematically destroying US hegemony in higher-education may feel like "owning the libs" but (1) Education is massive export for US (2) Best & brightest from around world stay in US and start businesses here (3) Higher-education is key employer & medical life-line in many *Republican* states.

Q: How do you define socialism personally? JD VANCE: I think in reality what it actually means in the American context is you want to replace American workers with foreigners workers, and you want boys to play in girls' sports

It feels like one of the tenets of the MAGA movement is you always have to act like you're the dumbest motherfucker alive. JD Vance has a degree in political science and philosophy from Ohio State. He has a law degree from Yale. He absolutely knows what socialism is, but he has to do this act.

Very much agree with this. The Trump admin has purposefully attacked mail in voting from multiple directions and continues to make threats of law enforcement at voting sites… their goal is to create confusion, distrust, and fear… to suppress votes.

It’s really remarkable to me that 10 years into this people feel compelled to “clarify” Trump’s homicidal and often genocidal fantasies. It is deranged for the president to daydream about American cities in states he hates getting blown up. Full stop.

Also, the flawed Athenian democracy literally fell because a bunch of xenophobic dipshits insisted on unrestrained power for their homeland and had contempt for and felt free to abuse allied states. All while facing the challenge of another, even more authoritarian power.
