Centrists approve of Trump policies at much higher rates than the American public 😉
The result could be a world where the economy escapes Trump’s tariffs despite his best efforts—and where Trump perversely reaps the political reward, standing to take credit for a suddenly “HOT” economy. lnk.thebulwark.com/4s3gNTW
Why Aren’t Dems Going After Trump’s Tariffs?
They don’t work and Americans hate them. Layup.

Shockingly, this bill would have failed were it not for the 3 Democrat defections.
Just now, a national trans healthcare felony ban for youth has passed the US House, with 10 year prison terms.
3 Dems crossed party lines to vote to jail providers.
4 GOP crossed party lines to vote against.
It is not expected to pass the Senate, where Dems hold filibuster power.
Story to come.

Meanwhile, while the far right is yelling that we're unqualified DEI, I've mentored many people from their demo who've become colleagues and friends.
How many people like me have they mentored?
Some of us are building a beloved community that includes everyone. They want to demand Gilead instead.

Making this claim from the NYT Opinion Pages Home for Bland White Guys is certainly a choice.
If you think the system doesn't seem interested in rewarding white guys at all that seems to be an issue of your media diet and not a reflection of reality

Fox is the only network that paid a billion dollars bc of their false reporting, which led to a riot in the Capitol.

KLOBUCHAR: You've launched investigations into every major broadcast network except Fox. Is that correct?
CARR: I don't know if that's true or not. We do have investigations going on NPR and PBS. We have a number of investigations.
(That's a yes)

The Great Replacement conspiracy theory has become the central organizing principle of the new right. Without it they have almost nothing to say.

“I am a dog of the king.”
It’s an expression of loyalty and subservience that scholars used when writing to ancient Assyrian kings.
One astronomer named Bel-ushezib introduces himself as “your servant and your dog who fears you” before complaining about being punished for reporting a bad omen.

On that last post: I genuinely cannot think of any good-faith reason to bar international adoptions from those 39 countries. Under this new ban, consulates will refuse adoption visas for any baby from Cuba, Haiti, Venezuela, Nigeria, or any of the 39 other countries.
