Watching otherwise left-leaning white people respond and give their critique of the halftime show is just.. something else. There's some sort of disgust reaction going on - could they simply not stomach the Palestinian flag? Or didn't understand it was a call-out and not an endorsement of pedo? Or?

Every healthcare worker, doctor, nurse, etc. working at a hospital (most are nonprofits) that has student debt is enrolled in this.
Cops, prosecutors, first responders are enrolled in this.

I live like 40mins out of philly. I did not watch the game (no cable) but I could tell by the sound of fireworks that Eagles were ahead at halftime and at final that Eagles won. Even the burbs getting loud for this

I realized today that Trump, Musk, DOGE, Vance, Miller, Vought and their many collaborators have broken so many laws already that they know they have to destroy our government and entire way of life to stay out of jail. This is all or nothing. We should respond accordingly.

This Politico story from last October shows how easy it is to launder lies through the press. It claimed Trump would ban anyone tied to Project 2025 from a job in a second Trump administration.
“Clearly people working on Project 2025 are blacklisted,” said an unidentified Trump insider. 1/4🧵
