Two things can be true:

- We shouldn’t expect our audience to feel sympathy for us in the course of doing our jobs.

- Staffers in this White House act like middle schoolers and are beneath the dignity that the office once held.

Explosive article:
White House fires FHFA inspector general. (FHFA head Pulte is playing key role in Trump's vindictive prosecutions.) IG was trying to turn over "constitutionally required" info to EDVa prosecutors & letter to lawmakers saying Pulte not cooperating.

The New York Times quickly sending out Douthat to argue that Mamdani’s victory doesn’t really matter is so predictable it borders on self-parody.

Remember, folks: Every time the Right wins an election, it’s an undeniable expression of the will of the people. If a lefty wins, it’s just a blip.

The fact that no one was allowed to protest the Gaza genocide without being called anti-semitic was the end.

Moral people cannot look away at what Israel is doing in Gaza and most Americans feel disgusted that we are helping to fund it.

My assumption is that we will see regression to the mean which is still going to be considerably more sympathetic for Palestinian and against Israel than we've seen in generations. The pre 10-7 sympathies were already unsustainable with the Israeli right sawing themselves off the cliff.

He’s just an extortionist at heart.

And he’ll never be anything else.

I think it may be the only thing he actually understands?

the clear implication is that something illegitimate has happened. and when you factor in M’s identity, that implication becomes much nastier and ickier and more problematic — and therefore it should especially be avoided if possible. gross stuff.
