i feel like i am teetering on the fucking brink asking this but is this, like. a trial balloon for "trump is too far gone to make video content any more / this week" weekend at bernies AI deepfakes? see if they can get away with it? how convincing it is? my brain is full of bees and fire.
I'm confused about the video clips Trump is pushing out on Truth Social and YouTube right now.

They're all shorter clips on various topics, but I'm not sure where they were shot or why they were done in this style behind a podium talking directly to camera.

just want to reiterate that the first amendment isn't something you "hide behind," it's something that constrains the government's ability to limit your inalienable rights. that distinction is very important

i call this view 'reactionary centrism' - the problem with it is that modern fascism *cannot* be appeased; they don't want a few compromises in women's sports, they want a total social transformation and the end of liberal democracy

you give them a bone, then another, then they want your arm

basically every 2024 truism is dead. Trump did not build a lasting multiracial coalition or turn young men into committed Republicans. You don’t need to cave on trans rights to win. The pundits have nothing left to tell you.

Zohran Mamdani says on NY1 he didn't get a congratulatory call from either Andrew Cuomo or Eric Adams last night.

He says he got a congratulatory call from Curtis Sliwa, though.

This needs more attention: Zohran SPLIT the straights with Cuomo. ALL of his margin was from LGBTQ+ voters. Every Dem who ever said “we should abandon the transes” needs this shoved down their fucking throat with a ramrod.

Wow it turns out the entire country is not permanently reactionary because Trump won an election by 1.5%

Again, this is because the elite media is extremely transphobic.
Earle-Sears ran what felt like 12 billion ads about how much she hated trans kids and I didn’t hear a single pundit say she should stick to real issues that affect real people.

whatever you think of Spanberger, the fact that her opponent ran a campaign based almost entirely on transphobia and is on track to eat shit in the biggest blowout the state has seen since 2009 is unambiguously a huge win

News: Pope Leo XIV calls for "authorities to allow pastoral workers to attend to the needs" of people who have been detained. "Jesus says very clearly ... we're going to be asked: How did you receive the foreigner?"

I wonder if Weigel will check back in with his sources who told him Spanberger was super vulnerable on trans issues, or with… himself, as he editorialized that Democrats were in denial by saying it wouldn’t hurt them!
Oh go fuck yourself Weigel

Decision Desk HQ is the first to call a race, saying Abigail Spanberger wins.

The anti-trans attacks seem to have failed in Virginia.

Virginia was the ground zero after Youngkin won on a fledgeling anti-trans platform in 2021.

The only elected Dem who posted anything remotely positive about Dick Cheney today was Nancy Pelosi, who used it as an opportunity to backhand smack Trump.

Lefties talking about how great China is because of restaurant prices really shows how bad everyone wants there to be a huge underclass to provide services to them for very cheap

i do think Dems should moderate on immigration in the sense that Dems should redesign our immigration policy to work like people think it works: you wait for a while (but not forever) to get into the country and then you wait for a while (but not forever) to become a citizen.

Dems have one of the most layup slogans of all time to campaign on and it's a good thing they aren't listening to the assholes on bluesky who say it's cool when Trump destroys American history, actually
