The GOP fought tooth & nail for decades against classifying acts of racial terrorism as federal hate crimes because they saw it as "federal over reach." Now they're all "ooh, let's make it a federal crime to vandalize cars built by the world's richest man who's also our biggest campaign donor."

New in PN: Trump's hopeless tariffs confusion, explained by a historian “He wants the society of the '50s with the policies of the 1890s. But you literally don’t get the society of the '50s without a comprehensive rejection of the policies of the 1890s, even by Republicans." - @rauchway.bsky.social

Also think about the difference in impact here. If you make under $13k per year, losing $1000 is DEVASTATING. That’s meals you can’t eat, desperately needed medical procedures you can’t get, school supplies your children can’t afford. If you make $3+ million per year, $180k is just a third yacht.

this whole ever-shifting target of "when will be in crisis" is so frustrating. we have been in a constitutional crisis for 25 years, often with the enthusiastic support of new york times reporters. we are now in the final collapse that is inevitable after 25 years of unaddressed crisis

this guy needs to be a focus of Dem TV appearances and Trump staff need to be asked about him in every interview “why is a 19 year old who called himself Big Balls being given access to our most sensitive personal information?” it sounds absurd because it is absurd and people need to hear it

Remember when Trump called for "termination" of the Constitution in 2022? The New York Times played it on Page 13. Now that Trump's "termination" is happening, I wonder if the Times' editors have any regrets for years of normalization and "both sides" framing that comforted the would-be dictator.

Draw your own conclusions, but Donald Trump is not behaving like a leader who expects democratic accountability for himself or his party next year or in 2028.

Musk and Trump are the ultimate trust fund parasites: men who contribute nothing, destroy everything, and bank on their followers being too blinded by spectacle to see how painfully mediocre they really are. Strip away their wealth and they'd be ranting in a parking lot instead of playing god.

Trump has already reversed Biden's executive order to bring down the costs of prescription drugs. He's not trying to hide his efforts to make it MORE expensive for Americans to get life saving medications. This is a huge win for Big Pharma & a huge setback for millions of patients.

Vance was obviously lying when he said violent Jan. 6 criminals shouldn’t/wouldn’t be pardoned. Trump was clear he intended to, getting his Blackshirts back on the street. Vance was clear that, unlike Pence, he would’ve broken the law to aid the coup. The error here is media’s credulous stenography.
