Fuck that. We are the United States of America. We don't make concessions to psychos, no matter how profitable the "deals" the Witkoff, Trump, and Kushner family could make.

How about instead of making some corrupt potash deal with the psychopaths in Russia and Belarus, we actually have a productive negotiation with Canada? Whatever happened to common fucking sense?

Pretty wild that the Texas Cattle Ranchers association is saying that deportations are affecting beef prices in the US because of labor shortages but Republican politicians and candidates never seem to get asked about that.

If you were gonna script a corrupt nexus between a senator and billionaire-backed political operative whose sketchy org spoke on her behalf and conspired to obtain illegal donations to fuel her reelection...you wouldn't make her husband his employee! It'd be dismissed as too absurd! #MEpolitics

Donald Trump is an active threat to American democracy and the global order —causing everything from mass inflation to disease outbreaks. But Democrats have failed to be truly exciting and inspirational. It’s little wonder so many voters will sit this election out.

The youngest person his pager attack killed was 9-year-old Fatima Abdullah, who had just started 4th grade. The pager was on a table when it went off and she picked it up to take to her dad. It exploded in her face and reports said it covered the room in her blood. She wanted to learn English.

These guys are trying to run the 2024 culture war playbook at a time when ~80% of the American public says the administration does not have the right priorities and are neglecting affordability (which Trump called a hoax at the GOP "convention"). This is a losing strategy

FWIW, this is exactly what those of us who are not popularists want electeds to do. No one is asking them to take "unpopular positions." We're making the evidence-based argument that when elites advocate for issues, they can make those ideas more popular with the mass public.

The key to getting low-information voters to vote for Democrats or just to sit out elections is to do everything possible to brand Republicans and especially Trump as stupid losers that are embarrassing to associate with. Make them the NY Jets fans of politics.

This is the most important story of this election. Democrats are completely unprepared for all the opportunities Trump and Republican failure have provided. We let too many state parties rot for too long. The ad saturation strategy vs. building infrastructure strategy is going to cost us a lot
