Certainly didn’t help that both establishment and new media on the left and right treated being worried about this as a cringey, unserious overreaction

Booker: "This isn't just about Mr. Garcia. This is about every American understanding that this president is making an assault on the due process rights that are afforded to people in our country ... you cannot disappear people off American streets."

Trump’s view on trade deficits is like getting mad at Target because you spend money there but they never buy anything from you. It’s just complete brain dead nonsense.

He's going to make individual companies come and beg to be excluded from the tariffs in exchange for a loyalty oath and capitulation, just like he is doing to law firms and universities. This is all one massive grab for authoritarian power, with the American public as collateral damage.

On one hand: we’re crashing our economy for no reason. On the other hand: all our allies now hate us.

This infamous Mencken quote is misanthropic and reactionary and kind of the opposite of my politics, and yet on a day like today…. “Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard.”

We simply had to intentionally destroy the world’s strongest economy while dismantling our scientific and educational infrastructure to ensure that a team with a trans girl would never finish second place in the Mountain West volleyball standings again

"I don't want a Disney vacation of our history! I don't a whitewashed history, I don't want a homogenized history. Tell me the wretched truth about America, because that speaks to our greatness" -- 20 hours into his speech, Cory Booker is spitting absolute 🔥

One of the defining feelings in American life, for decades now, is elites doing plainly criminal shit and nothing at all happening as a result. It is deranging in a way that virtually nothing else is. Media fixates on perceived street lawlessness but shit like this matters much more in my opinion.

In a 6-day period just before the 2016 election, the New York Times ran 10 front-page stories about the Hillary Clinton email "scandal." Let's see how many front-page stories the Times runs in the next week about the Trump regime mistakenly sharing war plans with a journalist.

this is obviously true and i think part of the way to explain anti-truster hostility is that they implicitly or explicitly valorize the small homeowner as a virtuous actor (in the same way that they can valorize the small businessman as such)

Chris Murphy: "Everyone who signs up to work for Donald Trump is signing up for one single project, and that is the transition of American democracy to a kind of kleptocratic oligarchy in which the billionaires rule and get to steal from regular Americans."

An incredibly dark and shameful era in American history. An obscenely cowardly betrayal that could only be achieved by a traitor like Trump.
