Q: "How do you respond to Governor Newsom?" Sen. Van Hollen: "I think Americans are tired of elected officials or politicians who are all finger to the wind...Anybody who can't stand up for the Constitution and the right of due process doesn't deserve to lead."

the anti trump coalition, as far as I can tell, is just people who believe the things they say and the “maybe trump isn’t so bad” guys are just people who do not. trump is an affront to anyone who sincerely holds any moral values whatsoever, almost irrespective of what those values are

the fundamental problem with these people (not jonathan) is that they don’t seem to believe in anything. if you’re willing to sacrifice one of the foundational rights of constitutional government on the altar of “buh this might not be popular” then what won’t you sacrifice?

i have no doubt that senator van hollen was genuinely concerned for the safety and welfare of abrego garcia BUT ALSO this is what i'm talking about when i say POLITICAL AMBITION. van hollen may well make himself a household name and nationally recognized political figure with this move

The Sopranos is probably the Rosetta Stone of modern American reaction: it consists of people who bemoan the loss of an imagined past they mainly got from movies, claim victimization based on identity but hate when others do it, and view the people who build the society they prey on as suckers.

Might be useful to Schumer defending an illegal detention because Khalil was an outspoken Palestinian (shudder), or Gallego trying to defend his reputation as one of the good ones by backing the El Salvador plan but only for real gangsters, or Newsom and his podcasts.

i suspect Mar-A-Lago will go down as one of our generation's infamous international spy hubs, the same way Cold War Berlin or World War 2 Campione d'Italia were. There's probably spies installing listening devices who are finding other spies' listening devices already there.

something i've believed for a while now is that, for me (as a 19 y/o lesbian with extremely supportive family and friends), being a lesbian is easier than being straight. the misogyny of boys my age is palpable and i don't know how i'd navigate that in the dating scene.

this is where the analogy to Brexit is really useful. A similar attitude that the US is completely self-sufficient and needs nothing from anyone. Too bad a lot of innocent people are gonna find out the hard way that this isn’t true.

i'll be blunt, if you are someone who is vocal about the ways that diversity efforts "divide the working class" but silent about the ways that actual racism and discrimination divide the working class, then i think you're just an opportunist
