It's not in spite of these indicators, it's because of them. Affluence and ennui are powerful drivers of modern authoritatianism.

I ran into some lameo Neocon touting the tired PP lie that crime was rampant in Canada & bail was out of control.

AP is banned from WH events and all the other legacy journalists walk right in. If this was the 60s, we know who would have been with the Freedom Riders, and who would’ve been writing about them from a safe place. AP stands alone. Sad but true.

Where does the accumulated debt of this country come from? It comes from Republican presidents. So much for Republicans being the party of "fiscal responsibility"; they will gladly drive up the debt if it means they can pass a Tax Scam for their billionaire friends and corporations.

If you claim to be a leader but are too scared to lead, fine -- sit down and let someone else take your place. It is easy to be bold when there is no threat. Now is a time for courage. www.cnn.com/2025/02/16/p...

It's not just the money, either. A venue manager told me that when they're setting up her show, she went out and introduced herself to the locals doing the work to thank them. He said that's the only act he's ever seen do that. You don't have to be a fan of her music to be a fan of Taylor Swift.

U.S. inflation accelerated last month as the cost of groceries, gasoline and rents rose, a disappointment for families and businesses struggling with higher costs and likely underscoring the Federal Reserve’s resolve to delay further interest rate cuts. #MAGA #TRUMP www.pbs.org/newshour/eco...

The man Musk is amplifying is a brutal far-right dictator who arrests his citizens for everything from crimes to having long hair and puts them in what's considered the worst prison on Earth—where the expectation is that they will shortly die. Musk wants U.S. citizens sent there. He's utterly mad.
