THE MAGA DELUSION “MAGA supporters do not arrive at their beliefs through critical thinking. They start with conclusions and then work backward. When presented with contradictory evidence, they do not engage with it. They reject the source outright.” therationalleague.substack.com/p/the-maga-d...

A major reason that cryptocurrencies like bitcoin have never taken hold in the US as anything other than speculative assets (that’s what economists call casino chips) is that we already had a stable, well-regulated currency and banking system. But, you know, whatever. www.wsj.com/finance/curr...

I have lived in authoritarianism before, and participated in a popular movement against it. My political voice was born in it. I was just talking to a friend - this moment is triggering because it feels like so few people are reacting on the magnitude of what I know is coming.

This is our future if you do not contact your Senate and tell them to VOTE NO on the CR and the Funding Bill! 5calls.org #revolution2025

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House. We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication. They own what happens next.

Two Republican senators told me tonight this vote shows they can execute the same strategy again — cut Democrats out of the negotiations on a gov’t funding bill, pass it thru the House, and expect Senate Dems to back down and not filibuster it. “We liked it over here,” one said.

A new era of government censorship has begun. It started with the silencing of scientific speech, when the admin blocked release of research on bird flu. But MAGA has also cracked down on other wrongthink—on race, geography (!), and of course Trump himself www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

Judge Howell likens Trump's executive order targeting Perkins Coie to a "blizzard" blowing across the legal profession to "intimidate" lawyers and chill them from "representing clients whom the President does not wish to have access to legal counsel."

CEOs attending a conference said in a flash poll that the stock market would have to fall 30% before they would openly criticize fOTUS. Why? One part greed: they’re happy to trade democracy for deregulation & lower taxes. And one part fear: they’re afraid of him. www.wsj.com/business/ceo...

Trump is destroying the Department of Education. As a former teacher, it angers me that a man who thinks nuking a hurricane can change its course will force children to grow up to be as fucking stupid as he is. #ProudBlue #TrumpisaNationalDisgrace #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice #TrumpIsARussianAsset
