There are only three possible futures: a) everyone in the Trump admin goes to jail, rule of law partially restored; b) Dems retaliate in full, and maybe that's a deterrent; c) neither (a) nor (b), so lawless authoritarianism wins again, and when Republicans regain power they ramp it up even more.

“Trump has rejected disaster aid for Democratic-run states at the highest rate in the 47-year history of the Federal Emergency Management Agency.” Right now people in blue states are basically paying federal taxes as if they’re colonized territories of red states. www.politico.com/news/2026/03...

Conservatives are welcome to vote for Democrats, but they should have no say in what Democrats do. So-called "centrists" are anything but. They are conservatives who prefer fighting Democrats than cleaning up their own side of the ideological aisle.

It's amazing how the least popular, most polarizing, lowest polling outliers in the Democratic caucus always think they get to dictate who does or doesn't get to be in "our" party. Don't like it, you Tor Johnson lookalike? Hit the bricks.

Would assume everyone knows it by now, but just in case "First the traitors, then the invaders" is an explicit reference to The Turner Diaries, where a white supremacist revolution overruns "The System" and kills all their enemy during the evocatively named "Day of the Rope".

X owner Elon Musk indicates he would prioritise political violence (assassination of pro-migration politicians is the common sense meaning) over violence against "invaders" (refugees, asylum seekers, maybe ethnic minorities generally) while endorsing call for violence (killing) against both groups

The reason Zohran scares the shit out of them so much is that they think this sort of technocrat FDR liberalism/market socialism will *work* and be popular, not that it will fail and be unpopular. They're afraid that he will be a good mayor not a bad mayor.

zohran is a completely normal (mixed-market socialist/new-deal liberal/whatever) and it’s completely frying the brains of people with too much money or whose livelihoods are built on catering to the opinions of people with too much money

It is political malpractice for Democratic senators to be helping Trump fill judicial vacancies four months before the midterms. Completely unserious people.

I Am Begging Senate Democrats to Do Anything Other Than Help Confirm Trump JudgesFour months before the 2026 midterms, three Democratic lawmakers have decided to give a historically unpopular president a little boost.ballsandstrikes.substack.com
