Come to this article for "Florida’s second-orangest Boomer B-lister." Stay for Dave's acknowledgment that for many in US history, ideas like freedom, liberty, and inclusion have just meant "I will magnanimously allow you to agree with me." (...and buy my beer)

There’s a halcyon version of the national past where Americans across the political spectrum set aside their differences and had a beer with one another. If that ever existed, it is gone now. Hulk Hogan's new beer is a dismal bid to profit off that vision with the nation's future on the brink.

On ‘Real American Beer,’ a Real American Bummervinepair.com Terry Bollea's Real American Beer is no grand effort to unite the country. It’s just one more clunky campaign to monetize its divisions.

Has NYT done a single story on the Epstein-Trump documents yet? Am I missing it somewhere?

“Remember when party leaders torched 100 million dollars so I could get beat by double digits in a Senate race against Lindsey fucking Graham? Anyway, they put me in charge of the DNC after that, so calm down”

TikTok is opening its platform to booze ads. Do you think the industry can be normal about this? Do you think *Congress* can be normal about this? I certainly do not.

i find mfs like this fascinating

As Elon Musk's public persona has become increasingly right wing, Tesla appears to be paying a price in sales. His polarizing statements have alienated some potential customers and may be partly responsible for a recent slump in sales.

the conservative theory of law in one headline

Agreed. He has some self-inflicted vulnerability because he biffed it on the rail strike in 2022, but the admin's NLRB is clear-eyed and aggressive; its FTC is seriously talking about labor as an anti-trust issue in suits (e.g., Kroger-Albertsons.) It's not just that he walked the UAW strike line.
