I feel this vibe too but it seems the GOP in this instance is kind of like Freddy Krueger. Once you fall asleep at the wheel, they are in. You can wake up in the middle of the nightmare but Freddy is just like, in the house with you at that point.

Hard agree. A fun new feature of this Administration is that we can start using air quotes for phrases like "world superpower" and "world's leading economy" and everyone knows what you mean.

This is climate arson, yes, but also the entire value proposition of Tesla, the reason for its insane stock price, is that it would end up the Amazon of electric cars: the only real game in town. Killing off non-Tesla electric car infrastructure is a gift to Musk.

In which a bunch of cosplaying fuckwits make a video of attempted murder. Pretending they are in any sort of danger as they run up to the vehicle with their guns drawn is a nice touch.

I feel like an underappreciated aspect of this is that Hegeseth doesn't know what role any of these people actually perform and is clearly just following someone else's instructions without having any idea what he's doing. Not ideal for our SecDef but here we are.

Was wondering why Collins was pretending to have a spine. Because she knew it didn't matter. They probably have a group chat going where they take turns putting on a good show.

“the United States is not a startup. The federal government exists to do all of the things that are definitionally not profitable, that serve the public good rather than protect investor profits. (The vast majority of startups also fail, something the United States cannot afford to do.)”

We need a work requirement for the Missouri GOP. They plagiarize bills, scroll on their phones all day, disrespect the voters, work 90 days a year, and walk away with taxpayer-funded healthcare and a state pension.

A good point though not entirely accurate, many of us knew exactly how arbitrary and destructive it would be without actually performing the mistakes. At this stage in our history we don't need to do a study to know what will happen when we touch the stove.

Last night I attended the Save Our Services rally in New York City. Listen to Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) fighting for people & federal workers: “Every day our job is to wake up and say ‘what can I do today?’ — There is no act too small. Every action matters.” @aoc.bsky.social
