Whether it's Obama telling farmers to plant arugula in Iowa or Donald Trump telling Iranians to take out Los Angeles, both presidents made deeply insensitive statements about regions of the country.

“In 2024, Trump won the white evangelical vote 82% to 17%. He lost everybody else 58% to 40%. Sit with those numbers for a minute. And then you realize that we gave this to America. That’s what the white evangelical church did.” -David French, to Holy Post Media

New — I wrote about this weird thing where people within the Republican party keep being exposed as Nazis and the party then tries to claim each one is an aberration. The facts, as I lay out here, indicate otherwise:
thehandbasket.co
Republicans don’t have a Nazi problem—they are the Nazi problem
A spate of recent revelations have shown the ideologies and their adherents are one and the same.

I said it at the time (and before!), but I truly believe that American voters electing Donald Trump for a second term in 2024 was the dumbest and most self-harming choice made by an electorate in the history of humanity

I’ll never get over seeing corrupt immoral fascist criminals in Texas like Greg Abbott and Ken Paxton running campaigns on the promise of fixing things they’ve deliberately broken for 30 years instead of being sent to prison for the crimes they’ve committed throughout that entire time.

What Pablo Torre did was ridiculously impressive. Uncovered a conspiracy between rich guys, withstood a propaganda campaign by one of the richest guys in the world with a pretty good reputation, didn't buckle or panic, and just kept reporting. That's some Pulitzerin' right there.

🧵You can't talk about Natalie Harp w/o talking about how strange she is. This isn't making fun of physique or bearing. It's about obsessive/creepy behavior. And it matters on policy. As a former Republican media consultant, I can tell you that this attack is astonishingly effective w/the public...
A photo of Donald Trump sitting at a desk with national flags on it, seemingly at a meeting in an office. His omnipresent aide, Natalie Harp, is sitting behind him, staring at him with an unnatural smile, her eyes shrouded with pupils not visible.

The thing you have to understand is that Joe Biden was very old and inflation was nearly 3% and Kamala Harris simply would not provide enough policy details during tarmac Q&A sessions.

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

btw, @whstancil.bsky.social and I have kissed and made up. We're all gonna have to if we wanna get out of this mess. Also word to the wise: apparently don't shipost about data centers in the one free hour you've accumulated this week.
I have to get back to work on infowars filming stuff, but I'm serious when I say I both don't want and don't have time for beef with you. I'd love to bury a hatchet here. we're gonna have disagreements about AI stuff, and we're gonna have disagreements about mutual aid stuff.

but we've got bigger fish to fry, and it's the pieces of shit up top. whatever happens, I hope you understand that, and I hope we can work together in trying to stop that bullshit


all of the infighting is downwind of the shit we have to deal with from the true white nationalist psychos who have put everybody into the fucking thunderdome together. we are on the same side ultimately


No man 100%! I’m not trying to fight! We can disagree but you’re on our team and Kat is super duper on our team. I watched people I’ve worked with on rapid response get dragged out of their homes by masked men last week, I am not unaware of the risk here


everybody's just constantly on edge... because of the fascism. and if you're not, you're probably not doing enough

When these data centers become debt traps in a few years at most, the next Dem president should offer to wipe out those debts if they're sold for a dollar back to cities for community centers, mutual aid hubs, YMCA-style temporary housing services. Try to salvage anything out of this mess.
