Ah yes, who could forget the obvious distinction between being an antisemite and "creating the feeling of safe harbor for far-right elements who unabashedly or in coded language express antisemitic sentiments"

Politics hasn't been this simple in a long time: do you think it's good for one man to exercise unchecked, arbitrary power or not. Those are the two available ideologies right now

🚨Luxury cars, mansions, a superyacht called Convict & wined-and-dined sheriffs — a legal war is exposing the big business of extracting profits from prisoners. Amazing reporting by The Lever's Katya Schwenk. You gotta read this story to believe it.

Three years ago, three other reporters and I ID'd and called any school accused of having litter boxes for furries. We found one (1) in the entire country: Columbine's school district. Cat litter was for a "go bucket," in case kids were locked in during a shooting. www.nbcnews.com/tech/misinfo...

The Army Corps of Engineers knowingly wasted 2.5 billion gallons of precious California water under instructions from the White House to take a photo and send it to Trump for a social media post. They knew the LA wildfires had already been contained and the water would not go to Los Angeles.

You do not fight political fights with the same policy as your opponent, especially if you paint your opponent’s policy as dangerous. Democrats should not get more conservative, the party should get dark money out and advocate for Medicare for All.

Here we go. The budget fight is THE big legislative fight. Here's a brief overview -- Trump has been running around with his executive orders and Musk has been running from department to department making illegal cuts and closures. The vast majority of that has been to serve THIS (cont'd)

What's absolutely maddening about this moment is that media refuses to pay attention to Musk and Vance's neo-Nazi connections because they feel like it's unserious Twitter stuff... except, Musk and Vance take it so seriously they're putting these people in charge of the entire US government

Even from a political view, the fact that almost no Democrats realize they could make their future career in this moment by throwing a "No the fuck you won't" shit fit is kind of amazing. Just total detachment.

The Democrats obviously need to stop conceding actual power to Trump, but they also need to stop granting him the presumption of soft power. You can take his effects seriously while still treating him like what he literally is: a clown.

headline: Federal Workers Block
Doors of Admin Building
Over Elon Musk Data
BreachWhile a half dozen protesters blocked the doors the remaining group chanted slogans and heckled Musk's surrogates inside who periodically looked down on the protesters from the windows of the fifth floor.
They chanted, "There's a robbery in progress! Stop the steal!" and "No Oligarchs No king!"
But the protesters laughed and relaxed the tension at least for at a few moments when one of them coined
the phrase,
"No Elon, no coup, no fascist shiba inu!"
(Video below)
The shiba inu is a meme reference to a Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), a fake government department which was not authorized by an act of Congress. Musk is recognized as the creator
