These are the people the mainstream media is constantly telling us to understand and sympathize with.

January 6 was like a much dumber version of Hitler’s Beer Hall Putsch and yet a plurality of American voters were like, Yeah, let’s give that guy the nuke codes again. An absolutely world historical debacle of societal ignorance. I’ll never understand it.

“Yes or no, BRENDAN?!” is the energy all Congressional Democrats need to become a real live opposition party.

Never heard of Senator Luhan before, but if he’s like this a lot let’s get him in front of more microphones.
LUHAN: Is the FCC an independent agency?

CARR: I think th---

L: It's yes or no, Brendan! On your website, it simply says, man, 'the FCC is independent.' This isn't a trick question

C: The FCC is not

L: So is your website lying?

C: Possibly

Politics is a team sport and people rarely start rooting for Ohio State after being Michigan fans their whole lives, but sometimes it happens. People also have a great ability to lie to themselves about what they're doing...they say "but the other side is also bad" or "but I think he means well."

Like most Republicans these days, it's Wiles who is suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome. A person with a basic sense of morality and decency would simply walk away from such a deranged person and the party that enables him. It's not that hard. Many have done so. Susie has chosen not to.

Something that’s been overlooked in the storm surrounding the Vanity Fair piece on Susie Wiles is that it’s transitive proof of what @jamellebouie.net has said for months:

In a practical sense, Trump is not POTUS.

That job is being performed by a committee of three: Vance, Rubio, and Miller.

"Raymond Shaw is the kindest, bravest, warmest, most wonderful human being I've ever known in my life."
Hilarious. The WH had all the Cabinet members simultaneously put out statements supporting Susie Wiles after the Vanity Fair article came out.

If the last ten years have taught us anything it's that nobody knows what will resonate with the American public, least of all the paid politics knowers.

Might as well go with your moral instincts around right and wrong. This was obviously wrong on day one, and it was right to fight for him.

I guess the question of whether the military will refuse to follow illegal orders has been answered today.

They’ll even commit piracy on Trump’s command.

So sad to see these Welfare Queens always living on government handouts. Must be something wrong with their culture.

They should try pulling themselves up by their bootstraps, as we real Americans do here in Los Angeles and other major cities.

By the way this is why I know they’re lying when they say they knew who was on the boats and they’re all on a military list. The US military had somehow built a dossier on Robert Sanchez, the boat pilot living in a cinderblock house and earning $100 a month? He was next on the kill list after Osama?
Everyone seems to have forgotten but the AP actually went to Venezuela and found some of these men. They aren’t terminator-like cartel warriors, ready to give their life to ship kilos. They’re random dudes from small towns - bus drivers, fishermen - recruited for a payday. apnews.com/article/trum...
Trump has accused boat crews of being narco-terrorists. The truth, AP found, is more nuanced
One was a fisherman struggling to eke out a living on $100 a month. Another was a career criminal. A third was a former military cadet.

We’re two days away from finding out the t-shirt was white and hearing GOP zombies insist that “Waving a white flag on the high seas is a direct threat to the United States.”
WELKER: Isn't it possible that even the act of taking off a t shirt could've been part of an attempt to get attention for help?

TOM COTTON: Or it could've been an attempt to signal to another cartel boat to come pick them up and pick up the cargo

when a poor person uses food stamps for a steak or homeless person spends $5 on a beer, it’s seen as proof that all poor people are so bad with money that they shouldn’t be given any, ever, for any reason. $77 billion out the window, and zuck’s legacy as a safe government contract bet is secure.

It's good—very good, and very important—that district courts keep issuing these 100-page rulings upholding the law. It must be incredibly dispiriting to see them overturned in a two-page, lawless, unsigned order, but please, keep them coming. They expose SCOTUS' corruption like nothing else.

“What’s your plan for the Court?” is the only question that matters for 2028 Democratic hopefuls, because if they don’t, the Republican Super Legislature is hatcheting their agenda before it can get off the ground.
#BREAKING: Over dissents from the three democratic appointees, #SCOTUS puts Texas's new House maps back into effect for (and, presumably, through) the 2026 midterms.

The three Democratic appointees, in an opinion by Justice Kagan, dissent.

I'll post the ruling shortly.

Yep, the Supreme Court really is just a House of Lords—a purely political branch with bizarre veto power, wielded capriciously and without accountability. Time for massive reform.
