Yeah I mean this is all you really can say. It’s all grotesque and insane but the Trump GOP is getting to the point where they CAN’T win anything. Even if they get what they want it makes things worse for them! We’re all hostages to it but nevertheless. They’re kind of screwed!
Trump and the GOP aren't getting more popular, they have a habit of fucking up any "win" they get, and they're increasingly just idiots relying on brute forcing their ways through problems. And while some elected Democrats may be yielding, Democratic voters are not. This is a marathon, not a sprint.

Schumer is quite good at politics, even if saying that sends this site into a frothing rage.
Schumer responded on the Senate floor today:“For this administration to go all the way to the Supreme Court just to get out of having to pay SNAP benefits for hungry kids is pathological levels of vindictiveness. This crisis is in the administration’s hands. It’s all them, not anyone else.” C-SPAN

Long live the jury trial in America.
Jury finds D.C. ‘sandwich guy’ not guilty of assaulting officer
Sean C. Dunn admitted he flung the hoagie at a federal agent. His attorneys called it a “harmless gesture” of protest as Trump commandeered D.C. police.

There’s a lot of people who claim to be really into politics but who are actually really into being righteously angry, and they’re pretty shitty sources of information. Anger is addictive and makes you stupid, try to limit it.

The people around Donald Trump are taking advantage of his diminished capacity to break the law.
Whatever they do now, we won’t forget — and we will hold them accountable.

I hope you never find yourself in a situation where you or your loved ones are seriously injured and getting the run around from a liability carrier.
The biggest source of frivolous litigation is insurance companies refusing to pay legitimate claims.

It’s not simply important to denounce political violence because it looks bad not to. It’s the right thing to do on the merits. Even more specifically to this moment it’s important because the forces of fascism are inherently better at political violence than the forces of civic democracy.

look, all this talk about the ideological horseshoe, and it's pretty simple:
resentment is an inherently rightwing emotion.
generosity of spirit is the opposite.
everyone who cultivates negative engagement online? the former.
