I think Elon Musk is playing out the Viktor Orban plan, which removed funding for all the parts of civil society that could be used to oppose Orban's party.

This should be a bigger story than Trump's trolling over the California fires.

Not one Democrat is going to bring up statehood for Puerto Rico while the dumb guy rants about territorial expansion?

Not one?

Not that the DNC is asking me, but discussion of Musk should start like this:

Elon Musk, the foreign born unelected elite billionaire government contractor and taxpayer subsidy beneficiary who was once an undocumented alien, directed the Republican party he owns like one of his companies to....

Linking every discussion of the GOP to a person who has less than 50% favorably rating with registered voters is a gift. I would use it.

Something to think about when you see unelected billionaires shaping policies.

He's going to kick people off their healthcare.

He hasn't finished the nominating process, there is still time for a flat earther to be appointed to head NASA.

People who think employees of the FDA are an unaccountable elite voted to have a billionaire government contractor who hangs out with the president select who gets to be elected to office based on his feelings.

Republicans are willing to do anything to win elections except appealing to a majority of the electorate.

Trump’s political career started with paid actors and they never stopped using paid and coerced crowds.

Who is the Trump Campaign going to sue to keep Biden on the ballot and why do you think the Campaign has standing to sue?

I really wish SOMEONE in the media would ask Speaker Johnson that question because the answer would be-something. It would be something.

Whenever I read anyone claim that Trump was sent by God.

Imagine what would happen if a democrat suggested everyone just get over the attack on Trump.

Fascists do not make the trains run on time. They jail anyone who complains about the trains being late. Fascists do not rebuild the economy, the pass spoils to their cronies. Fascists do not solve problems, they create scapegoats. And Trump is a Fascist.

This is from six months ago and I still keep a snapshot of it on my phone because it's the most concise description of why this election is so critical.

There are three Republicans over 70 on the court. The next four years could see five seats change and make the court tilt left for the new decade.

The Supreme Court has done a very good job explaining what conservatism actually is in practice. It means that the law applies to a homeless person sleeping on the street but not an elected official accepting gifts from industry insiders or a chief executive selling pardons.

This precisely aligned with Frank Wilhoit's 2018 definition.

When Cristian Nationalists tell you they think a child born of rape can be part of God's plan but an abortion can not-then they are admitting they worship a god that sends rapists but not doctors.

If the use of civilians as human shields is a war crime, then it's a war crime for both.

Can we agree that Israel should be held to a higher standard?
