Ten years of Trump going on TV and just fucking saying whatever, and still nothing like an industry set of best practices to deal with it. Put someone on the set with a laptop to look stuff up, pause the interview, whatever. He'd walk off but so what. Amazing to still be at "agree to disagree."

whining out loud during a televised interview that the reporter should let you lie bc they owe you for the interview is pretty wild

Fascism is a lot of things, but at heart it's the political application of being a dumb asshole

i honestly have never seen a political leader so thoroughly destroy their credibility so quickly and, on the other side, it is abundantly clear that if anyone can claim a genuine leadership of large parts of the democratic party, it is AOC.

This is exactly what I have been saying for a while now. At this point, it’s not left vs right that matters, but fighters vs non-fighters. The Dems, and the American people, need fighters.

as far as i'm concerned the entire purpose of the american experiment is to provide chuck schumer with a job that's not too challenging, yet rewarding and fun. and i hate to put it to you like this, but every criticism you post, and every phone call you make to his office, gets in the way of that

i find this notion that public spending is illegitimate bizarre as a matter of economics but totally legible as a statement of moral economy. and as per any strict system of morality, the punishment is part of the appeal. they are punishing the american people for believing in the public good.

Musk comes from a family that moved to South Africa *for* the racism. He has repeatedly endorsed Great Replacement Theory in the US & Neo-Nazis of the AfD in Germany. He championed the rights of white nationalists and restored Nazi accounts to Twitter. But I'm sure the Nazi salute was an accident.

As usual, @olufemiotaiwo.bsky.social cuts through all the bullshit to explain our political conjuncture. hammerandhope.org/article/econ...
The false narrative of economic anxiety as the sole cause of the country’s rightward turn fits into a larger one, with Democratic Party insiders blaming “identity politics” for the party’s losses, politically meaningless distractions from real kitchen-table issues. But debunking or fact checking — giving people nothing more than a better story about why they are economically insecure — won’t be enough to counter this narrative. It remains effective in part because the economic insecurity is real and inadequately addressed by the political status quo.The critical work, then, lies in building power for people to secure their affordable housing, food, and dignity via a path that does not flow through an authoritarian strongman or the scapegoating of women, minorities, or immigrants. And that trail will be blazed as it always has been: by workers’ unions, tenants’ unions, debtors’ unions, and similar groups. These efforts don’t deny identity for some abstract, theoretical universalism but rather are rooted in the real universalism of connecting people across cultural and racial differences through concrete political projects with defined goals. The answer to economic anxiety is not even more moaning about coastal elites or “wokeness”: it is durable political power built on solidarity rather than predation. The only route to true security for all — for a world that doesn’t toss aside common public interests in order to protect the narrow private interests of politicians or shareholders — is the solidaristic protection of all by all.

The piece has tons of devastating details about Hegseth's many, many disqualifying personal traits, but we shouldn't overlook the parts about how he has repeatedly mismanaged every single organization he's led and been driven out of job after job for utter incompetence.
