I appreciate Democratic politicians informing people about how fascist Trump's government is. So why exactly did Trump's cabinet nominees get so many votes from Democratic senators?

Vance’s stance on El Salvador is hard to square with his administration’s position on Greenland and Panama. In the latter cases, when countries don’t give America what it wants, everything—including conquest—is “on the table.” But El Salvador’s Westfalian sovereignty must be honored at all costs!!

I wonder if the modern flat earth conspiracy theory began as people who believe in global warming trying to mess with people who deny global warming, to mock them, but then the global warming deniers were just convinced by the flat earth conspiracy

New CPS estimates from EPI show 15.3% real wage growth for the bottom decile from 2019-2024 Doesn't mean workers should be happy after 50 years of bullshit. Doesn't mean inequality isn't killing us. It does mean higher inflation-adjusted wages for the working poor, which used to matter for voting.

Republicans are single issue voters for racism. Republicans will always vote for whatever hurts black and Hispanic people the most. Nothing will ever be "too far" for them. Republicans would only regret their vote if elected Republicans turn out to be not racist

People freaking out over this objectively bad poll is perhaps the ultimate proof of how Trump gets judged by a different rulebook. This is the 2nd worst approval rating for an incoming president ever, 2nd only to 2017 Trump.

Do you think, if Joe Biden was like “we’re going to cause a recession but after that we’ll have a golden age,” that the Washington Post would say “oh he’s just not explaining his plan very well”?

This is blood-boiling. Charles Rogers was awarded the Medal of Honor in Vietnam after being wounded three times leading the defense of a position. Google his name and the entry below comes up. When you click, you'll see the page has been deleted and the URL changed to include "DEI medal."

“Electric construction equipment is also radically quieter — as much as 75% quieter than equivalent diesel-powered models — and since the machines aren’t spewing carbon monoxide, they’re capable of being used in indoor environments.” 🔌💡 www.bloomberg.com/news/article...
