So when the dems said they were going to fight tooth and nail they meant they were going to capitulate and give in? Just checking to make sure I'm clear. If I'm wrong please, by all means, correct me.

old Soviet joke for our times: Guy stops by the newsstand every day, scans the front page, doesn’t buy the paper. One day the vendor asks what he’s up to. Guy says: “looking for an obituary.” Vendor says “those are towards the back of the paper, comrade.” Guy says: “not the one I’m looking for.”

I'm super curious; has anybody that uses Threads having the experience I'm having in which on desktop/laptop, not mobile, when one clicks on a pro-Ukrainian, Pro-Zelensky, or Anti-Elon post they get an error message and have to refresh their feed? I'm on day 3 of it.

The best and bravest political reporting being done right now is by Wired and Rolling Stone. Who saw that coming that they'd be the ones to step up and become the Fourth Estate? I'm here for it. I hope they keep it up.

What I find so fascinating about DOGE firing everyone is that they've studied so little history that they don't realize you can't run an authoritarian government without a huge bureaucracy. We're watching them shoot themselves in the foot in real time. It's great.

So now that he says he's gonna be in charge of Gaza it's almost like all those college/university pro-Palestinian protesters were not really about the Palestinians. Where did they all go? I live in a university town and suddenly I don't see any. Huh?

I'm glad that America is doing real classic end of empire stuff. A king who is visibly losing his mind declaring a war based on a dream he had. Greedy courtiers feuding over access to the treasury. Some looks are timeless.

My dad was in sales. Good at it. I remember him telling me this exact thing. He'd say you gotta realize when you're in the situation where the next guy to talk loses. And then they do.
