I have daydreams about living in a world where people like Tim Miller are the face of the conservative opposition party. I'm glad he's in our big tent, but I hate what that says about the current state of politics.

They were spending every waking minute trying to avoid looking partisan.

New: Mayor Zohran Mamdani has secretly been the menace, Spider-Man, and has disrupted NYPD Police by catching villains before they can.

Strong job market meant that it got more expensive to have someone hand-deliver me fast food, so unfortunately fascism was the only recourse

American conservatives are constantly bemoaning the decline of aesthetic standards and calling for a return to tailored suits and classical Roman architecture, but are now forced to defend the Cheesecake Factory. A constant tension between the Brooks Brothers patrician and the Kid Rock populist.

Because there are 10s of thousands of Democratic electeds in the United States, and you have positioned yourself directly into a media environment that is designed to find every statement a Democrat makes that is even vaguely transphobic as soon as it happens.

intelligence is knowing that if i ever looked up anything about Magyar, Lula, or any of the other election winners i would probably not be great fans of their politics wisdom is knowing it doesn't matter because defeating the global chud coalition is all that matters for the foreseeable future

Gas prices are “temporarily” high, says the president. That’s because Republicans are temporarily in power. Vote.

boy do i have the charts for you source (me): cameroncorduroy.substack.com/p/fixing-the...

This is how you know you're evil

it's unbelievably infuriating how many times i have conversations (both online and IRL) where i talk about improving the IRS and people say "well couldn't we automate a lot of this stuff?" and then i have to explain to them that Republicans fired the entire AI and automation department

I used to argue that the actual slaveowners were worse people, but I think we all know by now that if he could, he would.

Fucker is just rubbing it in

MN GOP HOUSE CANDIDATE JOSH JUNGLING: Paid family medical leave is a bumper sticker law. It sounds good on a bumper sticker DFL CANDIDATE ZACK STEPHENSON: It's not a bumper sticker if you have a new baby or a sick parent. I think it's a necessity

it's very revealing how Slotkin can say "we need to prosecute all criminals in government so that people think twice about using the government for crimes" and the entire Republican party erupts in hysterics biggest hit dogs hollering moment in a while

Ossoff: "It's the most corrupt administration of all time & everybody knows it. While the crook president & his crook family rake in billions from all over the world, you pay more for everything... they lied us into war & spent most of the last year covering up for the world's most famous pedophile"

Dude doesn't have the moral character required to be a dog catcher, let alone the Vice President

Because roads don't build and repair themselves, among many other things

I love how many people revert to the mentality of 18th century doctors when you ask them to wash their hands before holding your newborn. "How could you possibly think that *my* hands could be dirty?"

An absolute generational talent, I don't think this record will ever be broken www.nytimes.com/2026/10/16/u...

I'm from NC, so I can give some insight here. The state is generally getting Bluer, but Roy also has an incredibly solid reputation and his coat tails are going to be long.

Browsing estate sales, hoping that some really cool old people with great taste just passed away

Median Dem voter: My soul will remain in tumult until it is watered with the blood of tyrants. Break them upon the wheel and break them again. Median Dem strategist: We must move to the right on every issue Trump is currently underwater on.

Sure feels like collaboration

"Starlink gets turned into universal basic Wi-Fi after Elon's assets are forfeited" is an abundance vision i can get behind

I left x despite having a large following bc I don’t want to make free content for the world’s wealthiest racist. It’s not worth it to me.

He has the incredible advantage of very obviously being Just A Regular Guy, whereas Collins could not be more of a Politician

that’s right

of all the people who should not want to play this particular game, jd vance is at the top of the list

Corporations publicly celebrating LGBT+ equality is a good thing and I am glad to see it coming back.

It's already illegal. Congress banned it near-unanimously in 2022. That law allows the ban to be lifted only if Russia withdraws from Ukraine. He's simply breaking the law that's already on the books.

I feel like this is the easiest that electoral messaging has ever been. "Everything is more expensive, the admin is full of incompetent criminals, and they started a new war for no reason (that we're losing)."

biden's numbers were way higher than this and the news cried about it, trump's numbers here are SHIT and you don't hear a peep

the funny thing about this of course is that "athenian democracy" was a cautionary tale to the framers, who saw it as unstable and prone to demagogues and tyrants like the one rubio works for

come 2028 vance will be cutting ads specifically denouncing his in-laws for coming to the united states

You will never find any of these people spending a single minute protesting Republicans

The only "good" Republicans are the people who have conservative inclinations but left the party by 2017 at the latest

incredible this will get little to no coverage

I do think this should put some of the hand-wringing over the uniquely sinful American electorate, uniquely feckless institutions, etc in perspective. The truth is that there is a large trans-national constituency of people who actively want this. They aren’t deceived. They want this.

there are vanishingly few principles that Donald Trump holds to, but by far the most important one is a universal admiration and fellowship with sex criminals

Still kind of inconceivable how many people died or will die because of the death of USAID. And the world’s richest man did it almost as a joke

Can you not see how nonsensical it is to demand this extremely narrow interpretation of what constitutes “control” of an American state in order to imply that the most pro-trans cohort of major party politicians in the world is somehow the enemy of trans people

honestly can't blame Ken for no showing debates. place and a time you could have guys there with warrants, restraining orders, paternity tests. player like Ken has to watch out.

I love Talarico and hope he wins. But he’s already raised $70M On the flipside, control of critical state legislatures will come down to seats where candidates raise 0.1% of that. I’ve researched the highest leverage swing district candidates you should donate to secure.actblue.com/donate/donat...

impeach them all. fuck em. why should they get to fly around on our dime and hurt people? “they’ll never actually removed from office” who gives a shit? I want them miserable every day for the rest of the term. I hope they have nightmares. air their dirty laundry. make em sweat

Love how user agreements mean absolute jack shit

I had to go look this up because I didn't believe it was real, it was too on the nose. Shouldn't have doubted a Texas Republican's ability to be detached from reality.
