There’s never been anyone whose involvement more completely and immediately poisons vibes and destroys joy. No good thing survives contact.

Can't believe a bunch of Trump supporters would show up in Washington DC and refuse to listen to the authorities. Unheard of.

this is the dumbest argument. your kid isn’t getting a scholarship. you’re spending a ton of money on youth sports because you’re a sucker that’s being taken advantage of by the system. one of the 10 trans kids playing sports in your state isn’t stealing a scholarship. shut up

This bullet point from Alex Karp/Palantir’s latest diatribe strikes me as the best representation of the whole project. “The elite’s intolerance of religious beliefs…” Let me stop you right there, Alex. You just made that up. That isn’t a thing in 2026 America.
20. The pervasive intolerance of religious belief in certain circles must be resisted. The elite's intolerance of religious belief is perhaps one of the most telling signs that its political project constitutes a less open intellectual movement than many within it would claim.

I know this is unpopular, but... it is possible to be both pro-tech/pro-innovation *and* also to be fiercely opposed to this current presidential administration - arguably the most corrupt in our lifetimes.

Extremely predictable (in fact, predicted by basically everyone) but still a little shocking that Team USA had its best Winter Olympics ever and the Trump administration didn’t celebrate any of the winners until the men’s hockey team, which they are celebrating A LOT

Democratizing the arts looks like universal income, low-barrier grants for both emerging and working artists, well-funded municipal arts & recreation programs, vibrant third spaces, and a well-funded public school system with progressive curriculum. Not a free pass for corporate-owned slop engines.

All in all, while Le's frustrated asides got the most attention, this hearing is most shocking for how little control there is over ICE. Even an experienced and respected AUSA like Anna Voss can't get them within a mile of compliance.

Can someone explain why ICE raids aren’t taking place in Miami, or Orange County, or South Dakota, or suburban Philadelphia? Oh, because Stephen Miller doesn’t have a need to create fear in them.
