It’s also a really good example of what weird little freaks these people are. You could (shouldn’t, but could!) excuse the no fault divorce, homophobia, etc bc it’s their religion, and we’re all used to religious extremists in power, but going after the parks? That’s just them being *weird.*

“They want to eliminate national parks” is a very simple way to get just about anyone on the Stop Project 2025 train. Are there much more glaring and life-threatening goals of P25? Yes but even your most bigoted cousin does not want to see the parks system sold for parts.
This!! Start with “they want to end no fault divorce, sell national parks, and ban porn” end with tax structure.

I have no idea the best path re Biden but I do know a solid week straight of “Biden Old” and “Rich Dems Worried” above-the-fold stories are *obscene* in the face of SCOTUS using the Constitution to wipe their asses purely in the service of reinstating a felon rapist as president. Crazy-making shit.

just so everybody knows what's happening here, this is Jack Posobiec—who spent the past week as a featured guest on InfoWars—speaking to the MAGA group of the wife of a Supreme Court justice
Yikes.

right. NYT leadership knows they operate in a moderate/liberal bubble, and after 2016 they decided that the only way to adjust for this is to always assume that reactionary thought is more popular than it seems to be
Every big media organization was so crossed-up by Trump winning in 2016 that they have been behaving and hiring as if Long Island-Coded Suburbo-Racist Sociopathy was on an unstoppable ascent worldwide, and interpreting everything backwards from there. It turns out most people actually hate it!

The cockamamie nonsense people are coming up with to avoid the nominee being Harris if Biden steps down is partly convincing me that the whole thing is just summer silly season Beltway boredom. It's the endless fantasy of a brokered convention now seeming tantalizingly close.

The best tweet of the day… no, the month. I really didn’t know that the neo-Nazis had these many sympathizers. If you are still wondering how millions of people perished in concentration & death camps, well, it starts with people like this guy. Yes, I’m saying it & meaning it quite literally.

July 7, 2004: A tornado was spotted in the Rockwell Pass area of Sequoia National Park, CA. The elevation of the twister’s ground circulation was approximately 3705 m (12,156 ft) above sea level. This is one of the highest-elevation tornadoes documented in the US.

"Buying land in Israel" — is the West Bank in Israel?
There is a meaningful difference, in my opinion, between hosting an event about buying land in Israel and hosting an event where it is literally sold, right there. Seeing some conflation. Also, "Why I was protesting outside a synagogue" — again, in my opinion, you should avoid that series of words.

in light of today’s results, this quote from last week stands out
THE sentence of the day: A Macronist incumbent in the Marseille region came in 3rd in her seat. She just dropped out to support the left. She said, about why she's maneuvering to block the far-right: "Defeats happen, but you can never recover from dishonor."

It’s amazing the extent to which our billionaire tech bro overlords are just telling us out loud that they are rooting for fascism. Makes me slightly nostalgic for the days when American plutocrats plotted against democracy in secret.

One thing that annoys me about the Democratic consultant class is how they act like they're brass-knuckle streetfighters and yet don't have the stones to run nonstop ads about Trump's extensive connections to Jeffrey Epstein. It's all true! It's documented! There are photos!

This guy took a quick trip from "I'm a Dem. I just want the party to be more moderate" to "I'm openly rooting for fascists in Europe and the U.S."

Just to be clear, this is Silicon Valley VC bro/Musk acolyte David Sacks coming down on the side of the Le Pen family, whose patriarch called Nazi gas chambers a "minor detail" of history and whose ex-wife alleged he nicknamed Hitler "Uncle Dolfie" while snarling "The Jews are invading France."

In case you think Project 2025 doesn't affect you or anyone you know, the plan calls for doing away with Social Security and Medicare as we know them. This will 100% hit you eventually, and it will instantly take money out of your parents' and/or grandparents' pockets.

It's not just that Trump will be worse on Gaza than Biden. Trump will be *unimaginably* worse; we quite literally cannot imagine how bad his foreign policy will be.

Jack Posobiec is a very influential MAGA media figure. He posted this today. In the 1930s Fr. Denis Fahey was probably most well know for being one of the most outspoken anti-semites in the world...quite an accomplishment for that era.
