Unsurprising given the cowardice of the Dems in not pushing back on this sort of language, but I still am baffled that no one just laughs in his face when he says 'Transgender for Everyone'. What the fuck does that even mean, bro? I'd pay real money to have him forced to explain the shit he says.

No clue what triggered this, but last night I dreamt that the kids and I got separated in a D&D theme park. Just as the main building in town was destroyed by a towering behemoth, I woke up, and long story short, I’ve decided not to endorse Tarrasquic Park after all.

I'm sure Justin's newsletter offers more nuance than his post can entertain, but regardless of any nuance, this is simply a flawed premise - I've yet to find someone I like and admire who is willing to enable the abuse of children in order to keep the tax rate for billionaires artificially low.

Hey, I’m just asking questions. Ignorant questions, bigoted questions, questions that have been repeatedly answered for many years. Sorry, but I’m not listening to answers right now; I’m far too busy asking questions. It’s called being intellectually curious.

Turns out I have some opinions about Israel, the U.S., and what's happening in the region, and I *did* have a minute to chat (with what I hope was an AI bot, but hey, if you wanna take money in exchange for shilling for genocide, you’re gonna get some shit along with it).
Image of a text from a pro-genocide pollster/AI bot:

“Pollster: Hi, I'm Jenn. We're checking in on views about Israel, the U.S., and what's happening in the region. Have a minute to chat? Stop2End

OP: The US is supporting a genocide in Gaza.

Pollster: I hear you, and I understand why this weighs on you. The term genocide doesn't fit what's happening in Gaza - Israel is defending itself against a terrorist group that targets civilians, and it goes to great lengths to avoid harming innocent people. The United States and Israel are seeking to hold Iran in check. Iran is the world's largest sponsor of terrorism, and if it is allowed to pursue a nuclear weapon, it could drag the region into wider conflict and put Americans at greater risk.”

- Text continues in next imageContinued text conversation with a pro-genocide pollster/AI bot:


“Pollster: Do you think confronting Iran now actually helps America avoid a bigger war later, or do you worry it's the opposite?

OP: You can fuck right off with your genocide apologism - the UN has declared it a genocide and you're gaslighting when you try to downplay it. Get fucked and put me down as against whatever you are trying to push.”

KARL: Do you support Trump banning news organizations because he doesn't like what they're reporting? SCALISE: Look, Biden removed the press credentials from 400 agencies KARL: That's not true. 400 reporters who had credentials didn't reapply. They weren't banned from the WH. That did not happen.

Dear Democrats, You will never be able to triangulate your way through racism/sexism/transphobia, because pushing a lighter, politer form of bigotry is always a lose-lose proposition. The bigots want the uncut stuff, while normal people aren't drawn to cowards who sell out. Stand your ground.

Brilliant work, FCC. Definitely not going full Streisand or anything. www.youtube.com/watch?v=WLDE...
Screenshot of the title and view count of Jimmy Kimmel's segment interviewing James Talarico. Shows the view count over 1.6M in the 9 hours since the clip posted as a YouTube exclusive, after FCC threats of retaliation if it aired on the normal broadcast.

For comparison, a John Mulaney interview segment has only garnered 500K views since it was posted 4 months ago.

If “we need to do this to win Texas” means throwing away human rights for all then no, Texas is not worth winning. If it wouldn’t be moral to do it in Mississippi in 1962 then it’s not ok in Texas in 2026. Under any circumstances.

Our society's unfathomable cruelty to homeless people is not just morally unjustifiable, but more expensive than housing people would be. Cruelty against the homeless is an unaffordable luxury. Abandoning homeless people to avoid offending the Protestant work ethic is an unaffordable luxury.

On the one hand, Donald Trump is arguably the most powerful person on the planet. On the other hand, all he seems to be able to accomplish successfully is occasionally renaming locations and organizations in ways that will have no lasting impact.

The answer to "why does everything suck now" almost ALWAYS goes back to "venture capital." Which goes back to "a lot of people have too much money and don't know what to do with it." Which goes back to: "We need to tax rich people more." It's like it's the solution to 99% of our problems!!
