The 2021 Bipartisan Infrastructure Law included funds to elevate 19 single-family homes in the Florida Keys. I love the Keys, but the cruel math says that our limited adaptation dollars are better spent elsewhere.

Taylor vocally came out against Marsha Blackburn during that evil lady’s last senate race and Blackburn still won. I think we need to give up the (understandable) fantasy that pop stars can swoop in and save the day. This is very much just my opinion, I know. But I’m right.

Nothing is stopping every single Democratic elected official and apparatchik from taking the airwaves every single day to articulately and decisively repeat a set of cogent talking points about Trump (ie 45). Nothing. Dem PACs could be slamming him with ads now. Stop whining and do that.

Once again, in case you’re wondering why Gen Xers are “like this,” watch any Disney movie between Walt’s death & The Little Mermaid, the shit we were raised on. Tried to rewatch The Rescuers last night and it is utterly Bananapants that a single soul thought this was acceptable kids’ fare

They don't want Biden in, as a person who used to specialize in research on this they want to prep a narrative for the fall of a technically illegitimate election. It's not a move to stop it, it's a move to delegitimize.

If you’ve ever wondered what comes between herpes and hell, it’s the Heritage Foundation. At least that’s the case in the papers of Walter Huss, the OR GOP chair in 1978-9.

Seth is bang on in this thread, and to his point: being clear on whether you are talking to a Hardened RW Actor or a Simple Pious American is essential. It won’t necessarily make the simply pious more amenable, but folks look like true fools when they treat a parochial homeschooler like Nick Fuentes

Highly recommend Season 2 of this excellent podcast documentary about the far right in Idaho. Episode 2 in particular clarified for me the challenges of talking about people who are "the baddies" of American democracy but who absolutely do not see themselves that way. www.npr.org/podcasts/510...

Johnny McEntee, one of Trump's most loyal deputies who is in regular contact with him, is literally one of the people collecting resumes for staffers who would implement Project 2025. Shame on any journalistic outfit who takes this "truth" at face value.
