interesting that conservatives were militantly “we must reward hustle” when the target was affirmative action at elite universities and now, when faced with the success of south asians and other groups, it is “i think we are too meritocratic”

Absent major institutional reforms that turn us into a multiparty democracy, totally transform SCOTUS, & significantly rein in the imperial presidency, this is the <best case> scenario of what is going to happen. Other, more permanent authoritarian scenarios are also possible.

Professional wrestling is fascist culture. It is also the culture of 12 year old boys. There's a lot of overlap between fascist adults and 12 year old boys.

If you want to really know how the outrage machine gets fired up: 1. Schmitt plans to drop “bombshell” on Smith 2. Someone plants story that Schmitt is a Vance VP contender to run same day 3. Right-wing Twittersphere gets talking points 4. Schmitt steps in it 5. Scheduled tweets go out anyway

Can we just stop publishing the opinions of random uncritical partisans? It's about as useful as publishing CPAC sticker slogans.

Everyone acts shocked when his “Empty platitude mode” gets suck on “On,” because it was always disingenuous and he’s just knee jerk reacting to the context.

With regards to beef prices, have you ever tried a veggie burger?
They're actually really good. A little lettuce, tomato, pickles, a portobello mushroom, slice of Swiss cheese. Excellent.

part of this is obviously national political conditions but don't underrate the extent to which a bunch of these incumbent republicans have never had to run a competitive general election campaign and basically do not know how to do it
