You are a Nazi symp. Shame.
Newsom is a cliff? I don’t think so. If Pritzker has the chops, he will succeed. Until then, Gavin is getting the attention. And it’s *all* about grabbing attention in 2025.
Why?
Happy if he doesn’t….but he is taking the equivalent fight to the Republicans who are stacking the deck (as they always have)
I can’t remember what Pritzker did or said—that’s how hard he shook the tree. Newsom is leaving a mark and getting the *attention*….that is what is important in 2025. The attention.
Did half of Stalin’s population equivalently regard him as “TACO Tits”? I’m thinking that the two are not so comparable….
This is not an ad or PR blitz problem. It’s different.
I’ve been saying the same thing of others. But here we are. Shit’s not gonna change until people are in the streets—for one reason or another that is yet to be determined. The real suffering has not yet begun. But it will.
How can you grab more attention from someone who is deploying the National Guard to take over a major American city because someone named Big Balls was beaten up by 15 year olds. There is nothing Democrats or otherwise can do to grab attention from that. Sorry. We will have to touch the hot stove.
Serious question: are you leaving this country just as you left your last one? Where do you go, if so?
That’s because their audience cares about those things and the rest of America doesn’t seem to. That’s the issue.
Agree. But it’s a bit concerning that she barely squeaked out a win in the current political environment.
She won by 1 percent in a district Harris carried by a lot more. I wouldn’t call this one an over performance.
Hoover and his party were incredibly dominant in the ‘28 election. Ruled everything. Then the ‘29 crash happened. The ‘30 midterms were pretty brutal for Hoover’s party, but not as bad as ‘32. Political realignment happened then.
The *actual* crisis hasn’t happened yet. The September 1929 kinda crisis. Until then, status quo.
@michaelstipe.bsky.social Thank you for being a part of my life! Still listening to REM 40 years later.
Sounds like the next South Park episode.
Who is that?
When Maxwell reveals Dems names and says Trump was never associated with Epstein in the way people think is, the cult will in fact eat it right up.
That guy is a DeSantis plant, who is taking a swipe at the dear leader.
This is all staged. A massive Kayfabe. Even Musk’s “rants.” Has always been. Who is his Education Secretary?? What happened to the assassination attempt investigations???
Yup. A la Access Hollywood tapes. People are deluding themselves if they think anything is gonna change with the Epstein files
They’re not stupid. Find another adjective.
If one can reconcile the utterly damning Access Hollywood tapes, there is little hope that those same minds can change with the Epstein files. Don’t delude yourself.
It’s not gonna fracture, sadly. They will rally around him. All of them. The Access Hollywood tapes should have been the end—rather, it was just the beginning.
Kayfabe. All of it. Including the press. The media cover our government the same way sportscasters report on WWE. As though it’s serious, even though they know it’s all bullshit.
Could individual states have healthcare for all?
Have you seen the current Supreme Court lately? They’ll help out with any rule changes needed.
Waiting for Jen to Jake Tapper all of us. She’s pointing in that direction as of late.
Girl, you gettin ratioed!
Thank you. Wonderful article
Wait till Elon calls him Taco…..
It’s totes okay if you’re a Republican, Scott…you should know this.
What about the wall? Has it been built? And who paid for it?
His face looks puffy
Please ask about the wall
Can someone ask him if the wall between Mexico and the US has been built, yet?
Can someone ask him if that wall between Mexico and the US has been built? And who’s paying for it? And if it’s not done, why not?
Does anyone know if the wall between the US and Mexico got built? And who paid for it? Just wondering…
FDR, one of the greatest, was a really rich dude. Some of the rich are good people. Most, however, are not.
He needs to lose weight and that can be easily done with the right meds. I agree he will be a force to reckon with
This is how you know it is a cult. Literally.
What you are describing is literally the definition of human trafficking. It is against the law.
And what if they figure out how to make it less economically painful for those who vote for them? Doge is good with databases and payrolls, I’m told.
I’ve always said Canadians are not immune from Trumpism, which is the same vibe as Brexit.
Thanks Peter!!
I wonder what kind of memorial on the Mall is going to be built in 50-100 years to reflect the history we are currently living through. Do all of these clowns realize they will forever be featured and disgraced in such a museum? It will be a dark and fascinating tour….
It’s not wild, Will. It is literally a part of their coordinated efforts. This is intentional, not “wild.”
And shitting on Dems by liberals and conservatives alike will always be okay and expected behavior. Right Adam?
As George Packer said, moving out of the country to feel safer is very “obeying in advance” Timothy. You are not living up to your ideals.
Sadly, the overwhelming majority of Nazis, as horrible as they were, never faced criminal charges. And those who did got off lightly. Expect the same for MAGA.
Why is Rand Paul trying to undo them then?
Is this a “leftist doomerism” post, Josh???
Isn’t what they are doing considered Cancel Culture? And wasn’t that something they railed against? I’m so confused…
It should be boycotted
Is this a “leftist doomerism” post, Josh? I’m confused
Is this a self own post, Josh?
That’s why DOGE is collecting SSN information. They will compare databases with voter information and continue entitlement payments to those who voted for Trump.
Means tested on the front end, that is. Eliminate the cap on social security tax and the system is magically fixed.
Everyone, including the rich, should receive the social security they paid into over the course of their lives. The key to its salvation, however, is raising the income amount paid into the system. That’s simply it.
Serious question: should people be saying it now? If not, will you let us know when it is okay to label it as such? Thx!
Sinclair
Fuck off.
There is no savior out there right now, folks. We are our own saviors. The next great leader will emerge naturally from the great arising that will take place among the people.
He wants it as bad as you did.
Your breeding hopelessness, Timothy. Stop it.
Dude, are you running for office? You should. I’d support your candidacy with $
But these higher prices just feel better. That’s the vibe, anyway.
Reunion tour. America needs it right now.
Aha! There you have it…
Some them are Trumpers….like Josh Dawsey. They like what is happening.
The GOP and the media no longer care about the price of eggs.
This great American band was my college musical experience. Michael Sipe is a legend.
@jayapal.house.gov Congressperson Jayapal: are you listening to Rick? He’s absolutely correct.
Hi Michael! Been a huge fan of yours since 1987…hats a long time ago! Thanks for being in this platform
What would he be spooked of? Serious question…
So why is Google changing the name of the Gulf of Mexico if he is so unpopular?
How about Dems send Salazar effusive thoughts and prayers?
No. It has failed. As in past tense.
Luigi and the CEO are now metaphors for Americans. Which side will people gravitate towards?
But the price of those fucking eggs!!!! Right?
Is it?
Clicks = engagement = tacit support. No thanks. The only way to end it is to disengage. NYT needs to disavow before we re-engage.
So glad you’re back!
We’re getting to the point in American history where those judges won’t matter anyway. So, maybe the senate should have focused on the hearings….
Do it. I have not one regret of ditching it. Using Guardian and Substack now.
It doesn’t have to be permanent. I’ve done it. Eventually the ship will be righted…..I’ll sign back up gladly when that happens.
Happy Birthday, Michael….your music was a big part of my college experience. Thank you!
We will grow from this….may take some time. But it will happen.
Poland, Brazil, Chile, Ukraine all offer hope of how democracy can be restored. It will rebound here, too…..eventually.
Democracy.
He’s running
Stay tuned. It will all become quite clear.
There is no implosion. This is the feature, not the bug. Collectively, it’s what they all want.
First they came for the shitlibs…..
It’s never too late. It wasn’t even in Germany.
Therefore, we will absolutely need more *white people* (since they’re about to round up all the brown ones) to work for $7.25 an hour. Any takers??
Mumpets
We don’t need more people in prisons, David. GFR
