    They’re five-year-olds! He’s sharing videos of a bunch of happy five-year-olds in order to harm them! It’s inhuman, we must rid ourselves of these men

    Okay, now it’s Republicans’ turn to kick out the most prominent rapist in their party

    Our media will of course learn no lessons from this, but the initial ICE narrative about the two murders it committed here in Minneapolis was 100% false, slanderously depicting the victims as aggressors attempting to kill federal agents.

    Literally zero reason to believe ICE here. Zilch. None.

    I’m probably biased but it’s starting to feel like the conflict over ICE is going to be the defining feature of Trump’s second term.

    Will America have an unaccountable paramilitary terror force serving at the whim of the regime, or will we be a nation of laws?

    The solution is consequences, by the way. And that doesn’t mean “losing elections” or “public ridicule.” Consequences that are real, that wrongdoers and liars know could happen to them, that bad men genuinely fear facing

    You have to admit, fighting a full-blown war in the Middle East, but only when markets are closed, is a real innovation in the history of warfare

    The correct statement for Dems to give is this:

    It is a relief that the Court reaffirmed the foundational principle that anyone born in America is unquestionably American. But the close split on this simple constitutional question reveals a body corrupted beyond repair by authoritarian bullying.

    If Platner must crash and burn and take the US Senate and US judiciary with him, can he please, for the love of god, at least take Ryan Grim, the Pod Save bros, and Morris Katz too

    Whatever their supposed mission, ICE has become an army of paramilitary irregulars, tasked with perpetrating violence in the general direction of immigrants and anyone who defends them.

    That’s what the masks are about, they’re a weapon of terror. Secret police thugs, not accountable to anyone.

    So Dan Moraff and Morris Katz, two slick political consultants who thought they knew everything, saw a video of a gruff-sounding oysterman, and decided, without further evidence, to lure him into politics by telling him he was a “hero of the movement” who was going to “lead the revolution.” Insane

    Such a pathetic and petty way to ring in the nation’s 250th anniversary. No sense of the diversity of the American experience. No understanding of history or our civic heritage.

    Just blind antagonism against a group that barely exists, in a cheap mimicry of historical reactionaries.

    We’re living through the dissolution of the American system of government and it’s essentially gone unnoticed by the entire elite class, because everything Trump says takes on a patina of ridiculousness and unseriousness

    Does Professor Wurman want to delineate which of the law students he teaches are from unassimilated groups that lack the habits of mind that make constitutional government possible?

    I think what's obvious here is that when he's talking about "vat-grown people" who are not like "real human beings" he is talking about HIMSELF AND HIS FRIENDS.

    That's why these guys' drive to find a Real Man's Candidate is so irrepressible, it's a reflection of their own insecurity.

    It’s really hard to overstate how certain the various institutional actors were that Trump was cooked in the immediate aftermath of Jan. 6.

    It informed so many bad choices, like Pelosi not moving to impeach day-of. Everyone trying to make everyone else do anything controversial.

    My suspicion is that Instagram is far more responsible for the upsurge in antisemitism than Israeli war crimes in Gaza. Frankly a lot of the daily antisemitism I’ve encountered has nothing to do with Gaza, just jokes about Jews and money, Jews controlling everything, etc.

    I will reiterate that Democrats should lean into the idea of an AMERICAN RESTORATION.

    It’s not only appropriately sweeping, but implicitly conveys that Trump has betrayed and undermined the American system in some fundamental way, rather than merely offering a competing policy vision.

    Two things we need to internalize, quickly:

    1. People are getting an ENORMOUS number of their ideas about the world from short-form video

    2. These apps aggressively promote some of the worst ideas in the world because they’re reliable emotional triggers, the only criterion that matters for the app
