Trying to meet the moment.

Also, author of a book called "Resist Autocratic Despair".

We never hear the hot new voices in the Democratic Party so much as acknowledge the term "Controlled Opposition" exists, much less how it is a key to turning Competitive Authoritarianism into Entrenched Authoritarianism.

Astute historical scholars as they are, it's puzzling why that doesn't occur.
#GVerse Jasmine Crockett @crockett.house.gov announces via @cwebbonline.com she will most likely be running for U.S. Senate in Texas in 2026‼️

Will YOU support her?

YES or NO

I get zero joy out of watching the Vikings shut out. My Minnesota friends deserve better than this. They had such a great season last year and should’ve been in the mix this season.

Nick Fuentes - America’s highest-profile Nazi - lives in Chicago and is clearly a fan of the Chicago Bears. Every time the Bears win, it is giving aid & comfort to the American Nazi movement.

True American Patriots will be rooting for the Packers next week. Thank you for attending my TED Talk.

Do people ever say anything about Tucker Carlson and Rachel Maddow having mannerisms that are eerily similar?

Watch them both and tell me if you found out they were siblings you would think “I can see that.”

Looking forward to the proliferation of “We are all Sarah Beckstrom - NOW!” yard sign in my neighborhood.

This showing by the Cowboys in the spotlight the last couple of days is putting a different shine on that tied game for Packers fans nationwide, I think.

Big win for the Packers there, but I am hoping that Wyatt injury looked worse than it was. He’s so important to the defense.

This is a fun game. These Thanksgiving matchups can be a little bit snoozy.

None of us are obligated to have a take on that reporter who blew up her life and the many salacious details that drip out regularly.

None of us.

If ever there was a moment to exercise a little intellectual self-discipline, it would be this one.

There’s a fly in the house and I’ve instructed the other members of my household to treat it as a welcome guest that should be respected based on their survival instincts.

Snowed yesterday in Green Bay. Shoo’ing that fly outside is certain death & the Mortensens do not murder.

This podcast is a pretty good way to set your emotional weathervane on American Authoritarianism.

He’s been giving listeners the 100% real for quite some time now, so if he’s feeling hopeful it’s not because he finally figured out how to dissociate. Worth a listen.

Iwona B Horyn is an Austin Powers level name for a villain and I refuse to believe is an actual person that is part of the Trump DHS. Just feels like one of those pieces of disinformation that people would be WAY too inclined to believe and spread.

Madge Taylor Greene will be the highest profile politician for a new political party apart from Republicans & Democrats. MTG and Andrew Yang Nationalist Populism brought to you by Doomsday Billionaires.

Politics has been an oligarch proxy-war for some time & this will put that in the open.

We glossed right past the whole “Heritage Foundation is no longer actively rejecting the neo Nazi element and has instead decided to embrace them by pushing out everybody who still thinks Nazis are bad.” thing when we decided to hunker down on the Epstein thing.

Maybe we ought to circle back?

What’s the spend on getting your family of 5 into one of those New Zealand bunker communities? Could your average Powerball winner make that happen?

Finally got to this week’s episode of “The Chair Company.” I don’t think I have laughed any harder in my life than when that dude put a lit birthday cake over the top of a pile of puke & said “it’s fine. I covered it. We don’t have to look at it anymore.”

Those girls are never going to get justice. Chasing it for them is only going to lead to a clearer understanding of how much we hate women in this country.

There are masked men disappearing good people and there’s still time to do something. We need to focus, though.

Your prurient interest in a person named Olivia Nuzzi is encroaching on my right to continue living my life with no knowledge or her life whatsoever.

I appreciate your cooperation in this matter.

Despite all the reasons not to, I maintain a modicum of affection for Don Junior. Probably because of that bartending gig in Colorado he had while contemplating being his own man in his 20's.

He's the most tragic figure in all of this, I think.

Remember the recent middle-of-the-night apartment building raid where children were dragged outside naked & zip-tied in the street while black & Latino residents were _sorted by race_ and piled into separate vans while their apartments were ransacked & robbed? That raid? So it resulted in 0 arrests.

All the shit-talk to MAGA Enthusiasts from now on should have this preface: “You know what? I’m not going to fault you for wanting to have a billionaire/superhero/president — we ALL want that at some level. It’s beautiful and I don’t want you to lose that fantasy. It’s a dream worth hanging onto!”

Non-zero chance he goes on the attack by accusing Democrats of kink-shaming him. The only way out is through now.

What’s the method by which the truth about Trump and Epstein costs him his presidency? He steps down? The 25th?

You guys know he’s here to destroy us, don’t you? A sitting president that raped young girls is part of doing so.
