@dicknixon.bsky.social I have no following online, sir, but I am tagging you. I just turned on the TV and heard Chris Hayes refer to Rubio as a "gifted politician." Then put on the HR Derby and heard that the HR is beloved because it is the triumph of "the individual over the collective." WTF sir.

The Founders anticipated all of this, and that is why they buried throughout the constitution various secret hints and rules that would, centuries later, make it illegal to notice or get mad when a powerful and extremely dumb guy repeatedly commits obvious oafish political crimes.

I read the alt text and I’m even older than you so I had to go to the urban dictionary. WTH dude. Humble bragging.

The Constitutional Crisis is already here. You are living inside it. No way back, for better or worse. Either fight to win the future or concede to fascist tyranny taking over our country, the world's largest economy and mightiest military.

Just a reminder: it’s good to oppose assassinations. But you are under absolutely no obligation to treat Trumpists and Trump-apologists as people who are honest, or acting in good faith, when they purport to condemn political violence or violent rhetoric. They’re not sincere.

I just watched a little of the video from yesterday and I think someone should make the bit where Trump keeps whining about how he needs to get his shoes go viral

The smartest guy in the room title is critical for these guys because it is the basis for the version of the argument from authority - themselves - they can then rely on with everyone who would otherwise look at them and say I'm not sure you know what you're talking about man

Same at Columbia.

So many words and at a Jonathan Chait level of analysis. Even approaching Yglesias levels of inversion.

Trump retains the brainstem wit to smell Vance's reptilian ambition from across the room, of the three Burgum seems the most innocuous I guess. So LOL when is Scott's wedding again?

You’re right that we always have to be careful with their slippery use of words, like what they more than expansively hide under issue headings like pornography, abortion, immigration
