I just want to save this series of tweets for posterity. Hopefully, we’ll have a chance to go back over what’s going on here when tempers have cooled.

Primaries are where change happens in parties, unfortunately. I really wish there'd been a dem primary for pres this year- unfortunately the dems decided to bet it all on Biden. Which is normally reasonable, but is an issue this time. Genuinely wish there was a way for him to step aside for Harris

I have my issues with Biden but in pretty much every issue I care about my choices are 'guy who I might not like who is at least not making things worse' vs 'guy who has sworn to make everything worse for everyone.'

My man do you want a genocide enabler or a genocide enthusiast, cause bad as Biden may have been on this issue, Trump and the republicans are a magnitude worse.

for me the Biden conversation is entirely about whether he can win in November. i’m not worried about whether he can actually do the job because i don’t think it’s a real job.

Compare this to when Trump says something like “we’re gonna catch Goofy and execute him for his crimes folks” and people in the press go “Mr. Trump seemingly analogized criminals to a Disney character as he called for harsher legal penalties”

All of these guys leading Project 2025 were Trump White House officials. Paul Dans was closely involved in implementing Schedule F. The head of Heritage, Kevin Roberts, was selected as a pro-MAGA leader. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/the-public...

one of trump's strokes of genius (and yes I think he is an evil genius) is just not having any written policy positions any time anyone says "so you support X" he can just say "no I don't" he does it over and over again, and the media never calls him on it

Trump can make the thugs willing to do his bidding immune to federal prosecution. Not to bullets, though.

Beat the republicans over the head with it. Over and over. Do *something*. Don't just sit and go 'well this is how it's always been'. We can't return to normalcy because the normalcy is dead. The republicans killed it.

The Biden "regime's totalitarian grip"...from the Claremont Institute. Right. A regime grounded on free and fair elections, constitutional restraints, and the rule of law. All of which were attacked in yesterday's GOP SCOTUS decision. What nonsense.

Either the Democrats will run Biden, or he'll say he can't continue the campaign and Democrats will run Harris. Either is newsworthy, but neither is nearly as radical as running a pro-insurrection convicted felon with legal immunity he's eager to use.

Mississippi is the poorest state in the US.

Even though the state gets federal welfare funds, it is difficult to get welfare.

The money was all getting stolen, and they got away with it.

Now the journalists who exposed the story are facing a lawsuit and jail.
