Dems confused about why they're polling lower than GOPs? Think of it this way: one side is vile, rabid vermin - the other side let them in the house, feeds them, doesn't discipline them, dotes on them, responds to their needs, often takes their side in territorial disputes, asks you for $5.00 often.

Hey, can I share some historical context with you about “race-baiter” Ebrahim Rasool? When I see a South African who’s a little older, I always check what they were doing before 1990. 🧐 Found something surprising: As a boy, Rasool and his family were expelled from District Six.

Being a historian, people ask me if I think the US is living through Germany 1933. I answer no, analogies are always imperfect but to me it feels more like Russia 1999: a blatant theft of state assets and liberals in a fugue state, refusing to believe the arc of progress is bending against them.

A quick update on the US’s global standing, via tomorrow’s UK front pages:

Two of tomorrow’s UK front pages. The Daily Star front page with a picture of JD Vance looking moronic with an orange Trump in the background. Both are wearing dunce hats. The headline says Trump Deputy’s Vile Slur on Brit Heroes The right wing Daily Express has a picture of the coffin of a fallen British soldier being carried off a military flight. The headline says Clown Vance Slur on 636 War Heroes

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

“The quiet but seismic recalibration dismantles Biden-era mandates and signals a return to more aggressive counterterrorism policies Trump first instituted in his first term.” Some of us tried to warn you that he wasn’t ‘antiwar’ or ‘isolationist’. www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-e...
