people in active hypothermia strip their clothes off, people who are drowning try to drown their lifeguards, panic is an extremely effective motivator for choosing motion, but not a good motivator for making progress.

Germany is still living down their shame. The stink will take generations to fade.

Christians are the worst. Absolutely abysmal and shameless.

This should horrify every decent American. Remember they mean deporting millions of Dreamers, farmworkers, long-settled immigrants who have contributed to our nation for decades. Businesses will suffer and families would be separated from coast to coast. Our neighbors, our coworkers, our loved ones.

Money is a plague on politics. Our leaders don’t represent us anymore. They represent the oligarchs who fill their bank accounts with ill-gotten gain. Insatiable greed is poisoning humanity’s future. We must evolve beyond the sickness of hoarding wealth.

I believe in few things as strongly that I believe that trans joy will win and that these are the fevered lashings of a bunch of people filled with rage at the realization that the world is passing them by and beyond their control

So far this is basically the trans-bashing convention and (1) it's disgusting, and (2) I'm really not sure it's what normal people want to hear from a political party. Also if any neutral media type really care about "lowering the temperature" they should start note the hate speech in Milwaukee.

Spread the word on Project 2025.

As I noted in yesterday’s CAMPAIGN TRAILS, Project 2025 is the key to this election: kevinmkruse.substack.com/p/convention...

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.

Also always worth remembering: Vance is a Peter Thiel protégé. Was one of the principals at Mithril. (And a more corrupted, impure, corroded vc firm you will never, ever find.) More gross stuff in his background.

That Vance is a direct line to Thiel and Andreessen is truly important. Trump wants their money. Thiel wants to sell billions in Palantir contracts to power Trump’s mass surveillance/ethnic cleansing infrastructure. Pence was the Christian Nationalists’ guy. Vance is reactionary capital’s.

Are you a fan of all of those guys who are directly responsible for making the internet an unusable dogshit hellhole? Well boy do I have a VP for you.

quite a trajectory to go from publishing a "non"-fiction book to becoming a Senator and VP nominee within eight years.
