Everyone who endorses the false claim that the US economy of 2024 is an inflation-wracked hellscape of misery for working people ...
is doing advance comms work for the Trump administration when in 90 days time they start taking credit for the best economy since the 1960s.

Word of the day is ‘recrudescence’ (17th century): the return of something terrible after a time of reprieve.

it boggles my mind that almost the entire global political class just decided they would not accept scientific fact, as if through will alone they could suppress the laws of nature. It’s the very definition of fuck around and find out.
How did I not see this before now? Awesome,

Trump's "secret plan" with Mike Johnson to steal the election is more devious than you probably think. It's not just electing Trump via the House. It's decreasing the overall number of electoral votes until Trump wins a majority.

Many don’t realize that the first people Hitler sent to his concentration camps weren’t everyday Jewish citizens, but his political opponents. So, when Trump rants about retribution, locking up his opponents, and giving them “very long sentences,” I can’t help but take him seriously… because history teaches us that is what fascist dictators do during their “Day One” period to consolidate their power. (After all, if you’re hellbent on staying in power but aren’t likely to win the next election, you can’t have your political opponents running around free.)
To keep fascism out of our lives, vote for democracy!
Wow.
I'm glad this moron said that to @mehdirhasan, because Mehdi made him instantly regret it.
I'm sure Tough Guy's butt is still hurting.

MAGA has decided the closing message is hate, racism, vulgarity, Christian Nationalism, and violence. This is not a political rally to get out the vote. It’s a rally to prep for violence.

If you're angry abt ppl saying Trump is Hitler then direct your rage at JD Vance, not John Kelly.
But if you don't think Trump/Hitler comparisons are fair, please remember:
Like Trump, Hitler scapegoated a certain powerless minority as "vermin" "infestation" & "poisoning the blood of the nation."
Like Trump, Hitler promised "mass deportations" of the undesirable minority.
Like Trump, Hitler was a right wing, pro-militarist white nationalist.
Like Trump, Hitler publicly despised immigrants, and demonized & targeted certain groups for exclusion.
Like Trump, Hitler was anti-LGBT & banned abortions for "citizens."
Like Trump, Hitler was a scab who hated labor unions & collective bargaining.
Like Trump, Hitler used the pretext of "law and order" to justify the expansion of police powers.
Like Trump, Hitler promised mass deportations of undesirable minorities.
Like Trump, Hitler relaxed the stricter gun control laws of the liberal govt that had come before.
Like Trump, Hitler promised to restore order & discipline through strong, authoritarian leadership.
Like Trump, Hitler supported conservative religious education in the public schools.
Like Trump, Hitler used excessive Nationalist propaganda, and attacked the press as fake.
Like Trump, Hitler organized large, theatrical rallies where he promised screaming fans he would root out Marxists and crush their enemies.
Like Trump, Hitler's most fanatical support came from rural, socially conservative Protestants.
Like Trump, Hitler pretended to be Christian.
Having said all this, I wish Hitler had been more like Trump: spending all his time golfing, watching TV, alienating his allies, getting arrested for stupid corruption & consuming massive amounts of trans fats.
"We want to burn out all the recent immoral developments in literature, in the theater & in the press- in short, we want to burn out the poison of immorality which has entered into our whole life and culture as a result of liberal excess during the past ... (few) years."

Trump is scared.
Elon is scared.
JD Vance is scared.
And I don’t know about you, but I don’t want a couple of coward billionaires calling the shots in America.
I want someone who is going to fight for a $15 minimum wage, take on income inequality, and fight for working people.

A reminder that the whole Trump McDonald's thing yesterday was fake.
Just like him.
Store was closed. "Customers" were Trump Cult Members. They had scripts. They had rehearsed.
There is NOTHING Trump won't lie about.

It’s illuminating that Israel can send drones up close like this to stare Hamas members in the face and yet they choose to drop 2000 pound bombs on crowded civilian areas.
Molly White is great. Give this a look.
