one reason i reject the 'global, vibes based rejection of liberalism' theory is, as elites have internalised it, they've figured there's nothing to be done other than accommodate fascism but in fact, when we fight, we win all the time

"He uses his kids as human shields," former Ohio congressional candidate Shannon Freshour replied, linking to a story about Vance being confronted by pro-Ukrainian protesters while with his young daughter.

"This is gonna sound snarky but if your dad is a piece of s--- it's better to realize it sooner rather than later," former HuffPost reporter Michael Hobbes wrote.

ICE raided Los Angeles elementary schools in an attempt to kidnap small children. They hid their identities, claimed they weren't ICE, and lied to school authorities that they had "permission" from the parents to take the children out. School officials luckily didn't fall for it.

Another point he made was, Is there a role for the state in building a national tech infrastructure, much like they built a broadcasting one in the last century? When we think about data sovereignty, particularly with reference to te Tiriti, there’s merit in at least exploring that idea.

Refreshing to hear former Australian prime minister Malcolm Turnbull state clearly what every Canadian has seen: how our allies are not speaking out to avoid Trump’s anger. As he says, it’s time to stop letting the US get away with violating rules and norms we supposedly value.

How do we recover from the global hellscape we’ve created. The game is rigged - there’s just no winning. The people in power have the resources to elevate themselves above the problems of us plebs. When it gets bad for individuals they just blame their fellow citizens, not the oligarchs.
