Many caveats here. I don't understand much of this myself. I'm only trying to learn—not come to conclusions. I post this only to ask if anyone with relevant expertise has seen this video—and its many charts—and finds it compelling. (Do ignore the splashy title—this is a dry and sober assessment.)

No Democrat should be attending Trump’s joint address. The idea being pushed by Jeffries that they will push back with guests is dumb. Trump is a tyrant thug and participating in the speech pageantry assists tyranny.

Have we really become so angry and intolerant that we can’t even let the vice president enjoy some skiing in peace the day after he signed off on the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians?

As Donald Trump turns the United States into one of the closest allies Russia has worldwide, it's worth revisiting the news item below, which came out immediately after Trump won a surprising victory in November:

Musk just gave the game away in his interview with Joe Rogan. He said that it's because of Social Security that "people are living longer than expected"—which coupled with a lower U.S. birth rate creates a situation he finds intolerable. He _is_ a Yarvinist—and he's coming for our Social Security.

So there are so few talented people in New York City—which deems itself the center of the world—that the main candidates are a criminal (Adams) and a known heel (Cuomo)? This is disgraceful. This is why people hate politics. U.S. politics would rather resurrect a PoS than develop _any_ new talent.

It occurs to me that not everyone knows how to get to Sugarbush, the ski resort JD Vance is visiting. It’s a great mountain, but even if you don’t ski, it’s a beautiful drive to get there, especially on a clear day like tomorrow. You can get directions here. You’re welcome!

I love that folks are calling out JD (on vacation, again, while he fires the people who do the real work). But I wonder what would make him care. Like maybe get nuns out?

1/ The reason this is particularly bad—and undermines all the great journalism the Times does—is that it a) treats lives like a game b) will be seen as the view/cavalier attitude of the entire NYT, and not just 10 columnists, many of whom should have been put out to pasture long ago.

Maybe if the feminization of America hadn't turned us into a nation of soy boys, we'd have more people ready to stand up to Donald Trump.

I know. They’re not going to stop. They’re sociopaths. It’ll keep getting worse until the nation collapses. Increasingly I see other historians, biographers, and attorneys coming to the same realization, after years of scoffing at those of us who have long called Trump a clear and present danger.

I'm struggling to get over what we saw today. The amount of gaslighting, cruelty, ignorance, abject cowardice, arrogance, indifference to human life, and deceit we saw from Trump and Vance...we saw behavior we associate with enemies of the United States inside the Oval Office. That's traumatizing.

Zelenskyy: "It's not just that the war began somewhere between our countries. The war began when Russia brought this war to our country. They're not right. They didn't respect our territorial integrity. They brought the war to our families. Ukrainians want to hear a position of the US on our side"

Zelensky taking a hard line right now is EXACTLY what the world needs. Call out their lies, hold them accountable, speak in simple terms, and hold strong.

Trump and Vance showed a level of crassness and vulgarity never seen before in the White House with a foreign leader and guest. They were the worst kind of ignorant disgusting bully. They’ve turned our nation into a global embarrassment. And a global threat.
