Unpopular opinion: when people are being kidnapped off the streets these "hardworking Americans" messages seem hopelessly out of touch. Our nation is engulfed in a five-alarm, constitutional crisis house fire, and Democratic leadership is making kitchen table arguments. Read the room I beg you.

Among the things Trump never understood is one of the things that made America great was great neighbors. We're blessed with two friendly, stable democracies, with deep cultural and trade relationships with each for decades - until now. Trump and his MAGA enablers have thrown it all away.

Another option: Jeffries secretly meeting with Kushner looks bad because it really is bad. Democrats across the country are running to hold Trump's corrupt regime to account, while House leadership secretly meets with Trump's corrupt unelected son-in-law to plan ways to undermine those efforts.

This is The Way. Democrats need to promise to raze the ballroom, and make the motherfucker pay for rebuilding the East Wing out of his stolen millions. Restore the Rose Garden. Cancel the ridiculous arch. Restore the Kennedy Center. And scrape all that tacky gold shit off the walls of the Oval.

Most of the corruption perpetrated by the Trump admin would not be possible without the complicit enabling of the Republican majorities in the House and Senate. The only way to put any check and balance on this out of control regime is to vote them out in November.

Again, Trump is singularly and historically awful, but it is the elected members of the Republican Party that have abandoned their sworn oaths to support, defend, and bear faith and allegiance to the US Constitution that made this possible. None of this happens without GOP support and endorsement.

Here's the serious bit for anyone who'd rather skip the 4000 words of jokes

Because the truth is, tech doesn't have an image problem. It doesn't have a message problem. It has an intention problem. What's wrong with the axe murderer who broke into my house is not that he hasn't successfully persuaded me to buy into his narrative. What's wrong is that he's trying to kill me with an axe. Similarly, when you launch a product that's designed to put millions of people out of work, block access to sources of verifiable truth, replace human creativity with slop, and lower the barriers to every sort of atrocity, the problem isn't that you haven't told the public a good story about those things. The problem is that you are trying to do them. (
There are things in the world that are more important than money. The fact that you seem not to believe this, that you seem to think any motive beyond ruthless acquisitiveness is fake, dishonest, or childish, is the heart of your problem. Your attitude is not by any means unique to tech, but the
