Insurrectionist Brunch: Trumpists plotted to deploy military on U.S. soil Before the 2024 election, a cadre of MAGA loyalists met over brunch to plot ways for Trump to use the military domestically.

This is just astonishingly great reporting.

All of the crises the White House has claimed over the last 14 months were planned in advance. All of them.

And however much contempt you have for media outlets who reverently relayed Trump's claim to have no relation to Project 2025, it isn't enough.

I think Trump is cookedβ€”and it’s helpful for us to say so, repeatedly and often.

Authoritarians use fear to compel obedience. Once people start thinking about what they’ll do once he’s gone, they’re much less likely to obey his commands.

This is the Republican Party now.

Abolish ICE is the mainstream position, get on board or GTFO, incumbent dems.

I'm sorry but you can't just not tell that story.

SOME of us have been saying this for years. Stop looking weak. Stop *being* weak. Stop poll-testing every goddam word out of your mouth for fear of offending some voter, somewhere. Just say what you fucking believe and defend it. And then act like you believe what you said.

Passing a pro ICE law got this incumbent Dem steamrolled. I hope @schumer.senate.gov and @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social sees this shit. Overwhelming anger at ICE. So unless you're a Republican, get on board or quit.

This is right. And people hate to hear it, but Joe Biden’s single most important task was to Trump-proof the US.

His task was to destroy the Republican Party to punish them for Trump, salt the earth over them, and implement big structural reforms to stop future R minority extremism.
And he failed.

Dystopian shit that needs to be prosecuted and banned

Good thing to remember online right now is that everyone here is very emotionally dysregulated and dealing with that by posting

A big reason Democrats lose is that people think they're phonies who don't believe in anything or have any self-respect. Act like you believe in something. Anything. For fuck's sake

That's the right move.

No. Nobody associated with the Biden or Obama admins. We need new people, new ideas, and most importantly, PEOPLE WHO KNOW HOW TO F'ING COMMUNICATE IN THE 2020s.

Elected Dems listening? Should be a litmus test in every primary. Drop the squishes like a bad habit.

Okay, but here is what is going to happen: mainstream candidates are going to win primaries, and if we say β€œvote blue no matter who,” people will accuse us of saying it as a secret trick to boost moderates. Establishing VBNMW NOW, before the primary, makes it clear the obligation is universal.

The key message here is not that El Paso airport is shut down for "security reasons" for 10- TEN days.

The key message is that the government can just do wtf they want and doesn't owe anyone any explanation.

The high wouldn’t last. Seahawks safety Julian Love soon intercepted a throw from New England quarterback Drake Maye, and the Patriots never recovered. In the end, Kane lost a bit less than $100,000 in bets that favored the Patriots.

β€œWhat are you gonna do about it? You get very numb to these kinds of numbers,” said Kane, who works out of his one-bedroom apartment in Philadelphia.

In the future we're gonna look back at online gambling and prediction markets in the same way we look now at cigarettes on airplanes and lead-based paint

This attitude is why Dems lose so goddam always, to borrow a line. People have eyes. People are fed up with the focus-grouped triangulation, staking out the "safe" position one step to the left of republicans. Have principles! Defend them! Talk like a person!

Schumer is going to get smoked in the 2028 primary. Absolutely torched.
