“The Trump I see now, it doesn't seem like the same one. It seems more like…you see mental deterioration. You see things emerging in the older personality that have maybe gotten bigger and the better parts of him have fallen away.” 9f8c5c09-fd32-41e6-8ab5-08a593acfc92.libsyn.com/burning-down...
Missing us (just a little?) Summer break is a great time to catch up on past episodes! @Olivianuzzi @NYMag dishes on what it's REALLY like to cover the White House, #2020 and more.

Max Blumenthal praises Candace Owens and compares criticism of her to the destruction of Gaza.

"They're trying to totally destroy her, they're trying to like, wipe her off the map the same way they're wiping Gaza off the map."

This “deal” is impossible to sign. You have to promise to protect freedom of speech and also to prohibit faculty from “belittling conservative ideas.” There is no way to comply.

Breaking News: Brown University became the second college to reject a White House deal offering preferential treatment for federal grants.
Brown University Rejects White House Deal for Special Treatment
Brown was the second university to turn down the deal, which would have given a funding preference to universities that agreed to certain requirements.

In Trump's Republican Party, hate will always have a home.

Here's just a handful of responses I've received since commenting on Politico's disturbing story.

See how proud they are to prove our point.

Fascinating. Politico notes that when notified of the texts, many state-level Republicans fired or condemned these cretins. Now Vance emerges to excuse the racism, and calls the reaction to it "pearl clutching."

He seems determined to purge the party of its last enclaves of decency.

Today: “I wouldn’t be generous to a communist that’s going to take the money and throw it out the window,” Trump added. “We’re not going to let someone get into office and squander the taxpayer money from this country. Not going to let it happen.”

“Monkeys”
“Watermelon people”
“1488”

But when we say white supremacy is thriving on the right, they call us reactionary…

Give me a break.

The future of the Republican Party proudly embraces bigotry that belongs in the past, and every American needs to recognize how dangerous that is.

Just so everyone is clear, the main issue in the Supreme Court voting rights case tomorrow is whether it's racist against white people to enforce the Voting Rights Act.

I'm dead serious. We live in incredibly stupid times.

NEW: I took a long look at the Proud Boys and found some of their most extreme chapters are sharing ICE recruiting materials on encrypted apps and even suggesting members have joined up. talkingpointsmemo.com/news/in-the-...
The first Antifa Counter Terrorism Task Force Trump already gave so many of us jobs with ICE. We may have to start recruiting soon to fill all these spots.

we’ll see how his mayoral tenure shakes out but i am convinced that Mamdani has the juice. not just the charisma to win an election but the temperament to govern and the measured pragmatism of someone who genuinely believes what they’re saying and wants to accomplish real things.

Glenn Greenwald says Nick Fuentes' authenticity makes it easy for critics to "demonize and attack you by taking these quotes that can sound not just very racist, but very almost Nazi-like and kind of an extermination rhetoric." Um, yea. People who use Nazi-like rhetoric tend to get labeled a Nazi.
