If you can't see a direct line from frat culture to ICE, DOGE and the gleeful violation of consent in various tech, sport & finance circles, I don't know what to tell you.

I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

Trump did not direct the raid on Rep. Omar's house because there is any reasonable cause. It's because he thinks his base will turn out for xenophobia and knows they aren't turning out for his Iran war, price spikes or grift. It's gross authoritarianism - nothing more.

I agree. I find great comfort in these stories and the sincerity of the people telling them is obvious. I'm so glad they share what happened to them. It's wonderful that they helped you with your recent losses, Pete. You've been through a lot. ❤️

The takeaway from Bo French suggesting Asian students are “foreigners” and the tepid GOP response is that the Trump-era Republican Party is increasingly explicit about its belief that the only good immigrants, and the only real Americans, are white. (Gift link) www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/1...
The Afrikaner policy is illuminating, because it proves the catch-22 facing nonwhite immigrants: If you are poor, you are a moocher, and if you are gainfully employed, you are taking a job from a hardworking American. The only way to be a good immigrant is to be white and Christian.

Bo French, who is running for a seat on the Texas Railroad Commission, has taken this idea a step further, suggesting that the only way to be an American is to be white and Christian.

He's consistently withheld disaster funds from blue states because we didn't vote for him, but he wants to be allowed to help with crime because he's such a good soul, right? He thrives on using extreme violence against people he sees as beneath him. He can stay the fuck out.

The president is awake and flinging stale shit at the wall this morning: "Chicago is suffering an unprecedented and particularly violent crime wave that is getting worse by the day. The Federal Government can extinguish it quickly and completely, but the Mayor of Chicago, or the Governor of Illinois, must ask for our help. What is wrong with them? Why aren’t they asking?

Still unfathomable to me given the horrendous destruction of DOGE and how unfathomably heinous he continues to be on his social media duchy, that he can shovel cash to Republicans, go to a state dinner, and the press still doesn't treat him as remotely problematic as Hasan Piker.

I'm wondering if anesthesia and pain medication post-surgery are a factor, but I would never suggest Parker's feelings are not legitimate. I find those two things just make whatever you're feeling feel worse.

The lead alone, of the WSJ article on Fetterman www.wsj.com/politics/pol...
"One morning in June, three paralyzed military veterans in wheelchairs from rural Pennsylvania arrived at the office of Sen. John Fetterman for a long-awaited meeting to discuss legislation that would improve their care. 

Fetterman’s staff greeted them with bad news: The Pennsylvania Democrat had to cancel. He’d told his staff he may have eaten something bad and wasn’t feeling well, according to people familiar with the matter.

Less than an hour after his staffers met with the veterans in his place, Fetterman walked into his office, showing no signs of illness. He had an appointment he didn’t want to miss, he told staff: an interview on Fox News to discuss Israel and the war in Iran. "

I don't think it should be controversial to say, "we will not provide financial or military assistance to a country where the Minister of National Security brags about popping people's dreams of 'food' and 'education' then sending them to a prison where they are starved."

It’s mind-blowing that we have literal white nationalists in the White House carrying out unfathomably cruel, abusive, white nationalist policies, and the punditariat has spent the last two weeks debating if some people were too intemperate after a Black man was murdered by cops six years ago.

Politicians and some journalists seem to think they're part of some elite circle and for us to be pissed off when they play games with the enemy is a sign that we don't get how things work. Fed up with all of it and them. I'm a Dem voter and don't know anything about Piker. Manufactured rage.
