The thing that people have to realize about the reactionaries, who are our enemies, is they have factions. There's factions that dislike Putin and factions that love him. It's not dissimilar to factions within liberalism. But they are reactionary anti-liberals all the same.

The single most destructive force in American politics in 50 years.

Senate Republicans just launched an all-night voting spree to rip apart Medicaid and starve kids—all so they can hand more cash to billionaires like Elon Musk. They’re doing this while most people aren’t watching. Absolutely disgraceful.
