It is insane to me that his approval is in the toilet, especially in the economy and the chattering classes just pretend it is not happening.

In his interview w @jonfavs.bsky.social, @ezraklein.bsky.social asks, "why haven't the tariffs soured the public on Trump?"

An answer from my book on ACA opinions: the contemporary US economy is so diverse & complex that even sizable policy changes don't move opinions consistently.

You know they’re doing well in the shutdown fight when posters like this find a way to make a GOP-controlled government the Dems’ fault.

Log off, my guy.

a few of the usual suspects have complained that this kind of absurdity doesn’t do enough to center the people on the receiving end of the stick, and, it’s like, that’s not really the point here, the point is to fucking break them on our air inflated latex bellies

This season of Critical Role is what I was hoping it would be when Brennan came on board.

Nothing against Matt, but Brennan’s stories, for me, are just much more interesting and human.

Q: Politico reported on a group chat of young Republicans. Does this just reflect some bad apples?

HOCHUL: Some bad apples? These are the future of the GOP. This is so vile it's hard to find the words to put into context ... there's gotta be consequences ... this bullshit has to stop.

People of the future are going to look at that 99-0 confirmation vote, go “what the actual fuck, man?” and we’ll have to explain that no, there genuinely was no indication he’d become Trump’s Heinrich Himmler instead of maybe the only voice of reason in a Project 2025 administration

Trump: "You hear those sirens going off? That's good. A good sound. That means they either got the bad guy or they're gonna stop the bad guy. You didn't hear that sound bc nobody wanted to do anything. Listen to the beauty of that sound. That's the real deal sirens, not politically correct sirens"

Trump on Charlie Kirk: "He was able to fight people that were enemies. And he didn't necessarily love those enemies so much. You know, I heard 'he loved his enemies' and I said, 'Wait a minute, is that the same Charlie that I knew? I'm not sure.' But I didn't want to get into it."
