Jack Smith: "History teaches that the rule of law is rarely destroyed all at once. It's often weakened by attacks on the institutions and the public servants sworn to uphold it. Since January 2025, we have witnessed precisely such an effort."

Zelenskyy: "For first time in Russia’s history, we now hear that its oil industry is running on fumes. Our target is Russia’s ability to finance this war, to drag it out, to make it more brutal & destructive. Russia’s finances & Russia’s production are what must be stopped if Putin is to be stopped”

underrated part of El-Sayed’s messaging strategy seems to be shaming journalists who ask dumb questions that play into right-wing frames. you can’t answer these in a way that satisfies them, but you can make it embarrassing enough that you impose a toll on asking.
Abdul El-Sayed: "Weijia, with all due respect, this is the third time you've asked about a Twitch streamer ... their whole game is to make us fight culture wars so that we don't pay attention to the fact the president has made $2.2 billion ... "

If you're arguing against Trump's supporters based on ideological principles you're missing the point. What he offers his followers is just a giant "Fuck You!" to the rest of the world. That's the entirety of his appeal.

Trump launched the Iran war with a grandiose video talking about regime change and destroying Iran’s capabilities. Six months later, he’s proven to be so weak that the US can’t even keep the Strait of Hormuz open. An absolutely resounding defeat.

America is now being held hostage by crooks—corrupt billionaires and their henchmen proving they’ll toss away our democracy and defy our constitution to enrich themselves by stealing from hard-working Americans. Soon we the people can say in one powerful voice that we will not be ruled by thieves.
