But if I seem to act unkind,

Plenty of mistakes but joe biden not letting Silicon Valley Bank depositors eat it was a huge "all you had to do was nothing" mistake
Look how grateful all those rich tech guys are. So predictable

The takeaway for me: Gen Z feels like Millennials circa 2008–2012, same financial stress, different backdrop.
Key difference is Millennials knew why things were tough; Gen Z doesn’t, and that uncertainty is clearly showing up here.

All of this, in violation of the Constitution.
Trump and Vought are now breaking both sides of spending law. They’re illegally not spending where the law requires them to spend, and they’re illegally spending where they don’t have the money to spend.
What we have is an appropriations king.
Spending “deals” are meaningless under that setup.

While I admire your optimism, I do not share it. The people spoke in 2020 - we rescued democracy and the administration did nothing to protect it.

Douthat has truly lost his mind. Not just in the religious nutjob way. Along every axis of thought.
There is not a sane case to be made that Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner have accomplished anything of use to anyone except themselves and Trump. And Putin. And a few other dictators.

My takeaways from Thiel's Secret Antichrist Lectures (embargo lifted):
1. Tech is building the "machinery" of the Antichrist. D'oh!
2. The Antichrist is defined by "velocity" ("acceleration," eh?)
3. The Antichrist will be Gen Z (weird numerology stuff about the number 33)

News: I have obtained full transcripts of Peter Thiel's Secret Antichrist Lectures (as have multiple other journalists).
They were supposed to be embargoed until 9 a.m. tomorrow, but Reuters has a story up. (They may have gotten them from a different source)

Oh FFS that guy is a professor at Harvard Law
Please try to differentiate between the idiot talking heads, offering commentary on TV and actual journalists, who are not only covering the system we have and exposing its horrors, but being shot with rubber bullets and chemical weapons for doing it.
