A common lament is there is no civility left these days, because those on the “left” refuse to be friends with the “right" over "political views."

I really wish people listened to those of us who have spent years studying and writing about the far right and the coup they have been planning for decades. Because now they are just straight up telling you their plans because they are so emboldened by the fascist captured courts.

I went looking for the whole War Room episode this Kevin Roberts/"bloodless" second American Revolution clip was in, and you know for all his "we are winning" pablum, the reason he is thanking a guest host at the top is because War Room's regular host is in jail www.mediamatters.org/project-2025...

A thing we like to point out is how people who don’t really care about the outcomes have the privilege to be unaffected. There’s another thing, too. When the positive outcomes have helped others but maybe less so you, so you don’t think those outcomes are important.

very interesting. The president is now telling doctors to defy the law in order to provide emergency abortions. If the White House and Biden decide to actually play hardball, there’s a chance he might win the election. Big ifs here with massive implications but, we are living in historic times.
