it is deeply, hilariously funny that one of the undercurrents of this campaign is the old man who has, for like 287 years, been the center of the party telling the centrists to shut the fuck up and eat shit

biden spending over an hour with house progressives and then telling the centrist loser new dems to shut the fuck up before ditching them to go to mass probably explains a decent amount of the backbiting we’re seeing, lol

It’s been the case for awhile or maybe forever that the right conflates “feeling embarrassed” with “being made to feel afraid.” They don’t want to have to feel embarrassed. Breaking social accountability for bigotry is what the average Joe is in this for.

Who is terrified to say they support Trump? The Trump supporters I know can't stfu about the guy. Red hats are everywhere. This is delusional.

Many political journalists who style themselves as smart, savvy insiders who are cool and impartial observers are actually simple-minded rubes who have not yet mastered object permanence. I think they're obsessed with horserace coverage because they believe it'll actually have horsies!

It is comically irresponsible how the news media claims Trump is a "changed man" and "somber" and "serene" and "adopting a new tone"

The white supremacist gunman who murdered 23 people going about their day in El Paso five years ago next month had been obsessed with an alleged “Hispanic invasion” of Texas. There is no pivot, or softening. This is the Trump Republican Party. They keep telling us who they are, so believe them.

Lake also warned of the "Bidvaion" reference to the replacement theory that smashes the claim that Biden is intentionally facilitating a literal "invasion" of the United States, before leading the crowd in the nativist "build the wall" chant.

Said it before, I’ll say it again, tell people Republicans want to take away their tax refunds.

Project 2025 raises taxes on a family of four with two parents earning a combined $100,000 by $2,600, in order to fund a tax cut of over three times their combined income for someone earning $5m. x.com/SteveRattner...

“Human bodies tend to use sleep time to lower temperatures and recover from a brutally hot day; if temperatures don’t drop enough, people sleeping without air conditioning — or, say, people in major cities that didn’t get their power back for a week after a storm — don’t get that chance”

RNC night two is the replacement theory addition. So far, multiple Senate candidates have used their minutes on stage to promote the white nationalist replacement theory, which has inspired multiple deadly terrorist attacks and is a lie that actively threatens American democracy.

Worth thinking about how long Tolkien goes on in Return of the King about despair being a weapon, and presenting defeat as a forgone conclusion being a deliberate and effective tactic

You cannot vote for Trump in 2024 and plausibly deny your support for white supremacy

One reason they will never disavow Charlottesville is that "You will not replace us!" has become their whole thing.

It is really hard to overstate and this should be the headline of very big of coverage, “Ted Cruz takes the stage echoing white nationalist domestic terrorists” … His opener is the same as the white nationalist manifesto of the El Paso terrorist.

also and I feel like I buried the lede here: it calls for the people who CREATE queer media to be imprisoned. That'd be people like me. Or any other queer creator you love. Any queen who's been on drag race. Chappel Roan. Janelle Monae. Anyone who's made a piece of queer media. Imprisoned.

Psst: Project 2025 is terrifying for a lot of reasons but also because on page 5 it calls for teachers and librarians who grant access to books that are maligned as pornography (which just means anything LGBTQ) to be registered as sex offenders. Pass it on.

my second piece on NatCon is up today. At the conference, Republican senators mixed with openly racist speakers. It doesn’t bode well for the future of multiracial democracy nymag.com/intelligence...

The Authoritarian Plotnymag.com At the National Conservatism Conference, Republican senators mix with racists ranting about “post-white America.”

So do I have it right that Vance basically opposes immigration and thinks women should be stay-at-home moms and his wife is a Yale educated rock star lawyer who is the daughter of immigrants?

And another one. Yeah. Trump isn't gonna be sleeping much. Dude had an AK-47 and a ski mask.

The more and more of these Trump hears about is only gonna make him that much more scared. He's gonna come out wearing a helmet soon and roll around in a Popemobile

Armed man in ski mask arrested while approaching Republican National Convention perimeter in Milwaukeewww.foxnews.com A 21-year-old man wearing a ski mask was arrested outside the RNC after police found an AK-47 pistol in the tactical bag he was carrying.

One thing Usha Vance loves is that her husband is fully aligned with the candidate whose campaign manager pushed propaganda saying that her parents eat human shit and should be rounded up in camps. She believes her 3 kids are an abomination & she should be punished for committing white genocide.

so the dude with full AK-47, ski mask, ammo, etc., gets arrested after approaching the RNC, but an unhoused Black man well away from even the vehicle perimeter for the RNC, all the way across a major highway, gets shot to death by five cops. got it.

It’s gross that the Republicans are putting grieving families on a stage to blame their loved ones deaths on Biden and it’s equally gross that cable pundits are sitting there critiquing the performance like it’s an Olympic skating event
