Matt Walsh tweeted last year: "We've spent the last 25 years bringing "freedom" and "democracy" to countries around the globe while our own country has been systematically invaded and now our largest cities are run by foreigners and communists. If you want to know why I'm so avowedly non-interventionist, this is why." Then he tweeted today: ""This is a war for oil!!!!!" First of all, the "war" lasted like 90 minutes. Second, going to war to secure vital resources for your own people is totally legitimate. Why should we allow some third world communist shithole to control trillions of dollars worth of oil?"
Laura Loomer tweeted last year: "Iβm America First, I donβt support βRegime Changeβ. I went on @Bannons_WarRoom to talk about Chinese aggression in Venezuela and why we need to designate the Muslim Brotherhood as a foreign Islamic terrorist organization." Then she tweeted yesterday: "Maduro has arrived at the DEA office in Manhattan. He was transported in an armored motorcade after being transported in a blindfold via helicopter & then by plane to New York after his compound in Caracas was raided by US Special Forces. Proud to be an American today! USA πΊπΈ"
Catturd tweeted last year: "Name one U.S. inspired regime change that hasnβt ended in absolute disaster." Then he tweeted yesterday: "Venezuela is now more free than New York City."
Will Chamberlain tweeted last year: "The Republican Party is no longer the party of regime change and endless wars If you want to be its standard-bearer that is a non-negotiable position" Then he tweeted yesterday: "I can think of few better uses of my tax dollars than black-bagging the head of a foreign narco-trafficking organization that enriches itself by addicting and poisoning my fellow Americans"
amazing how the entire machine can pivot within 24 hours. no need to slowly upsell the argument; just issue new marching orders
i think this is key. taking the deal would amount to taking the blame. it would turn a clear political victory into an unambiguous defeat.
one thing that other candidates need to learn from mamdani is how to deliver the most cold blooded attacks on an opponent with a smile on your face
The richest man on earth owns X.
The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros.
The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.
The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.
See the problem here?

They put this guy in charge of the Department of Defense
This is a compelling argument from @adambonica.bsky.social. data4democracy.substack.com/p/the-democr...
I hope people understand that the anomaly here arenβt the conditionsβthe conditions are very typicalβthe anomaly is that they put a number of documented workers from a high-income country in those conditions. This is how people are treated in custody routinely
Watching all these centrist pundits stress the βcivilityβ of Charlie Kirkβs style without addressing the ugliness of his substance is giving me a renewed appreciation of how the civil, polite White Citizensβ Councils conned the same crowd into thinking they were distinct from the cruder Klan.
Pundits are focusing on Kirkβs willingness to debate people while studiously ignoring the people whose basic humanity he was willing to debate
i think anyone saying he practiced politics the right way or that we should continue his work should first have to read out loud his last days worth of posts to someone they love who doesnt know who he is
Do your mental health a favor and turn this on for today. You really don't want to watch this. It is awful.
βJeffries and Schumer, get your shit together. Tell us what your demands are.β
As another government funding deadline approaches, weβre starting to get dΓ©jΓ vu about Democrats caving to Trump.

The βproblemβ with vaccines? They so effective at preventing deaths that they create generations of people that question whether disease was a problem in the first place because they have never experienced the horrors of a world without vaccines.
Pritzker: To the members of the press who are assembled here today and listening across the country, I am asking for your courage to tell it like it is. This is not a time to pretend here that there are two sides to this story.
Boston Mayor Michelle Wu:
βSilence in the face of oppression is not an option. The U.S. Attorney General asked for a response by today. So here it isβ¦Stop attacking our cities to hide your administration's failures.β
need people to understand that accepting or conceding that he has the authority to do these things is tantamount to giving him the authority, and so your preemptive dooming is actively counterproductive
Letting Russia dog walk us to own the libs
Multiple times this year Iβve had coffee with fellow immigrants who grew up in corrupt third world countries and the shared sentiment has been that Americans donβt understand how bad things are going to get.
This is so important. The focus on job numbers ignores the fact that the BLS computes inflation (the CPI) which is directly linked to many government and non-government benefits. Any attempt at politicizing inflation numbers is very, very, very badβ¦
The human race hasnβt sent a person to the moon for 50 years and has never sent a piece of machinery more complicated than a modern car, if youβre wondering whether this is anything more than another way for Trump to funnel government money to favored oligarchs.
It is amazing how originalism just disappears entirely when anything that conflicts with conservative political goals pops up. Even a casual glance at the intentions behind the 14th and 15th Amendments would make it clear what Congress can do, but somehow the magic Ouija board is in storage for it.
Zohran didn't win by relying on standard turnout patterns. We had to fundamentally transform the Democratic electorate.
I was part of a group of NYC-DSA members that applied lessons from our previous campaigns to design the βuniverseβ of voters to talk to. Here's how we won π§΅
POLITICO compiled a list of all the Washington Post staffers who have left in the past eight months. Itβs at least a hundred names, many of them among the biggest names in journalism. This is the fastest erosion of a major outlet ever.

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.
I think about this constantly
Elon claims that Grok became MechaHitler because it drew too heavily from X.
Very cool that every Congressional Democrat and progressive organization is still on the neo-Nazi website!
A lot of Trumpβs appeal comes down to the fact that people whose lives are boring & mediocre because they arenβt particularly bright, talented, or motivated, would very much like to hear a story in which actually itβs someone elseβs fault.
