We have a peculiar historical event shaping up where the oligarch billionaire class is about to fleece this country while most of their supporters are working people who are convinced that they are on their side because they hate migrants & trans people.

Remember when Republicans had fainting spells over JUST Jen Psaki taking a job at MSNBC, decrying the apparent "revolving door" between the Dems and the network? Apparently *that's* disqualifying, but when it happens 10x as much on the right? Totally fine.

Trump trashed his own Cabinet nominees from his 1st term as weak, incompetent, losers. Blamed Deep State RINOs for recommending bad people, but said that THIS TIME he was REALLY going to appoint “all the best people.” Meanwhile, 2 have already washed out with Hegseth imploding.

Make no mistake, if Desantis is nominated as the Sec of Defense — he will have no problem weaponizing the military to go after ‘enemies from within’, arrest political opponents, ban peaceful protests, round up immigrants and use military force against the American people.

“Don’t feed the trolls” also extends to bad opinion pieces in papers of record. They run them bc people react to them the most. If we stop linking to bad columns and instead post thinkers we find valuable (& generate convo around it), incentives change. It’s not easy and takes constant practice!

It shouldn’t be ignored that Kash Patel chose to plead the Fifth in response to a grand jury subpoena over the Mar-a-Lago classified documents. He only testified, involuntarily, after being granted immunity. Think about that. Trump’s FBI nominee pled the Fifth in response to a DOJ subpoena.
