Tuned into the House and things are looking a bit wild. Up for a vote right now is H Res 916, which is a procedural bill to slightly fast track five bills (3 about making it illegal for China to fund elementary, middle, and high schools; 2 directed at the SBA). And it looks like it might not pass.

Stop asking why corporate Democrats keep failing and pay attention to what they do. Jeffries is openly pushing the party to move further into Neoliberal capitalism and championing an agenda that’s defined by a venture capitalist.

The fact that some people find it easier to believe a grand conspiracy rather than Trump being a simple egomaniac is one of the largest signs many people have no ability to deal with fascism now or in the future.

The president is about to start a war for no real reason. All of the things he has blamed on the country he’s targeting — fentanyl distribution, “emptying the asylums” and sending patients to the U.S., alignment with Tren de Aragua— are provably, obviously false.
