Vance on public outrage over the "I love Hitler" group chat: "Grow up! Focus on the real issues. Don't focus on what kids say in group chats... The reality is that kids do stupid things, especially young boys — they tell edgy, offensive jokes. That's what kids do."

Quite a few of these kids are also somehow occupying adult positions of import within the Republican Party.

This is very well written and extremely troubling and you should take some time to read it.

"enjoyed" is not exactly the right word, but i did... devour this piece by @usefulnoise.bsky.social, who spent a day at the big christian MAHA convention in alexandria this weekend:

What I Saw at This Weekend’s Minnesota MAHA Fest Scared the Hell out of Me - Racket

Over 1,000 Christian opponents of modern medicine descended on Alexandria, MN, to testify that drugs, doctors, and Satan were making us all sick at the 7th annual Freedom Summit.

JD Vance will say literally anything that he thinks will get him more power. He is the platonic ideal of the soulless politician. No morals, no values, nothing but a yawning void that will never be fulfilled.

The leaked chats between Young Republican leaders were obviously disgusting.

JD Vance’s efforts to downplay the scandal and complain about “pearl clutching” made an awful story worse. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

JD Vance tries to downplay leak of disgusting Young Republican chats

For the vice president to suggest it’s “pearl clutching” to condemn those who were part of a racist group chat says a great deal about his judgment.

NEW — I dug into the story of ICE abducting a 13-year-old boy in Massachusetts and moving him 500 miles across state lines without notifying his mother, local cop's complicity, and how the federal government's justification for such cruelty is already falling apart:

ICE took a 13-year-old they said had a gun. Local cops say he didn’t.

Now he's detained 500 miles away from his Massachusetts home.

Yeah I’m not happy. Spoke out against that sham presentation at the city council meeting (as did others) but of course they didn’t listen

Mike Johnson: "They berated a Capitol police officer, screamed at him. He was merely standing his post. It shows, again, their disdain for law enforcement, the Democrats, screaming, assaulting officers."

Yeah, they’ve definitely updated their catalogue, but I remember playing ping pong at my friend’s house as a kid with K-EARTH on the radio and the Beatles’ stuff was the most modern thing they played, the vast majority was Motown and older

Wait one damn minute‼️

I know Lisa Murkowski isn’t up on her high horse talking about the lack of trust between Republicans and Democrats after she cast the deciding “Yes” on the so-called One Big Beautiful Bill and slipped in backroom deals for Alaska.

She’s part of the problem & needs to own it!
