I hadn't seen this yesterday, Elon Musk saying two lawyers were "undermining civilization" which "seems like a generational trauma transfer issue." What a strange insult. Does he know their parents or something? Ah, I see: they're both Jewish. It's Musk being a Nazi. Again.

My U.S. Rep, a Democrat, held a town hall and explicitly said that THE REASON she was speaking out louder now was because she got so many calls and emails. DEFINITELY YELL AT THEM. It’s the only language they speak. It’s literally how they gauge public opinion.

If protests keep getting larger, and they will, we’re quickly approaching the point at which Trump tells Hegseth to order the military to fire on protesters. Trump yearns for this. The question is if the soldiers under Hegseth will carry out these illegal orders. I don’t think the answer is clear.

Political liberalism has a lot of flaws but one of the cool things about it is how it's constructed around the insight that monarchy is a fundamental affront to human dignity 👍

Folks, stop mocking RFK’s appearance, voice, and history of addiction. You’re saying that his looks, drug use & the way he sounds are legitimate reason to judge and dismiss him, and you aren’t too far away from his argument that the mentally ill are fundamentally broken and not worthy of dignity.

Anti-abortion advocates’ furious reaction to Trump’s IVF order—which does not actually do anything!—is a good reminder of how extreme and bizarre their movement’s ideology truly is. They claim to speak for a majority, but most Americans don’t believe this stuff! It’s total fringe lunacy.
