Contrast Sweeney with Sabrina Carpenter's disavowal of the White House using her music for ICE propaganda.

She called them "evil and disgusting." That's what disavowing white supremacy looks like.

Note that she did not explicitly disavow white supremacy.

Even Klansmen say they oppose "hate." And trying to "bring people together" is a thing MAGA people say when they mean that unity will be accomplished through non-white and queer people accepting second class status.

"The widespread belief that NPR lesbians and trans women in sports were a greater hazard than Nazis and extremist Christians was the most catastrophic failure of conventional wisdom in my lifetime."
Resistance libs welcomed South Park into the anti-Trump fold with open arms. Our founder Evan Urquhart was a bit less joyous to see the anti-woke edgelords of South Park recognize, at last, the dreadful pandora's box that widespread anti-wokeness opened up.

People don’t understand that stripping the guardrails of regulation and oversight doesn’t just apply to like better business bureau type shit but also like on a practical level when I get into an elevator I expect that it has passed a safety inspection & that type of security will be gone soon

We need to talk about the massive loophole that the Supreme Court just carved into election law over the shadow docket—giving states a free pass to enact patently unconstitutional voting rules within nearly *one year* of an election. A stunning new limit on judicial review. slate.com/news-and-pol...

I think Hollywood has convinced people that the median kid who engages in sadistic bullying behavior is a super popular kid (and those guys are def out there) but to me someone like Miller who was clearly a friendless loser in school was clearly a bully rather than a victim as a younger man too
Also Stephen Miller absolutely needed to be bullied a lot more

My Hot Take as an agriculture scientist is that regular people should not be able to buy any kind of herbicide. There's no reason a regular guy with a lawn should be able to go to a hardware store and buy gallons of roundup or any other herbicide. Your lawn aesthetics don't matter.

The US Administration has terminated our refugee program.

Whatever is left—a special visa for white people from one country—has nothing to do with a refugee program.
Belatedly noticing that the State Dept. updated its refugee resettlement data through October. In February-October 2025, the US resettled just 506 refugees(!) 342 of those (2/3) were South Africans. www.rpc.state.gov/admissions-a...
