Sadly, people like George W. Bush, Condi Rice, and James Baker have also put party over country despite knowing what their party has become. Pathetic.

A picture of Elon Musk, via the London Economic. The quote says “If a monkey hoarded more bananas than it could eat, while most of the other monkeys starved, scientists would study that monkey to figure out what the heck was wrong with it.

Important to understand the Trump regime as an occupying force designed to destroy American governance, so that it can be replaced by theocracy (Vought), fascism (Miller), or Elysium (Thiel).

as a Jew I am angry that Rs get a free pass taking money from dangerous antisemite Musk plus all the neonazi stuff from the Trump administration and hear far less from the media. We Jews should be making it clear El-Sayed is not antisemitic instead of saying “Oh it’s a real concern” & feeding BS.

Tur’s speech-more-than-an-interview reminds me of when her husband compared Ta-Nehisi Coates to a terrorist In a so called interview. As others note, why don’t TV anchors go after Republicans who take money from neonazi Elon Musk.

Probably unintentionally, the Trump administration played the perfect strategy for our broken media and "opposition" party. They did all the most boisterous, spectacle-driven stuff early and now that they're just casually running an immigrant exterminationist regime the press is bored by it.
