It's increasingly clear that Charlie Kirk was highlighted for bringing the youth to the right because he was the only one successful at it in a real, major way.

Instead of trying to win them over, most other MAGAs only seem to want to attack and mock politically active young people.

I did wonder if that's why Mexico was sending supplies by Naval ship instead of flying them in.

Has anybody thought to check if Trump is actually The Mule?

I'm old enough to remember when practically any position at Google was considered a dream job.

Everything I used to say about MAGAs as metaphor has now become literal.

(See also, for instance: "Republicans hate Grandma" ever since Covid and "What's the big deal, Covid mostly kills old people".)

I know that the Trump admin will try to spin this to minimize Minnesotans' resistance. But I highly suspect even as they do, they'll still be terrified because the optics also give the win to Minnesotans' resistance, and this whole administration is hypersensitive to optics.

It may indeed be that he never has been asked before. Anecdotally speaking, when I've tried grilling MAGAs about their stated beliefs on social media, many if not most of them clearly have never thought more deeply than talking points.

Happy Birthday to Charles Darwin, who MAGAs hate, and also Happy Birthday to Abraham Lincoln, who many MAGAs also hate except when they drag him out to say "Republicans freed the slaves!"

But hey, at least MAGAs won't let "Big Pharma" tell them what's safe to put into or on their bodies.

Apparently this is the new pervert version of "Too Big To Fail".

And, of course, it was while he was trying to impeach a Democratic president.

You and I know that they're going after documented immigrants too, but when I've tried to point this out to Team ICE, most of the time I get denials.

I was just about to ask what his reaction would be if she took his car on the weekend and changed everything.

I think that's pretty easy to guess, though, because the changes he's still making after multiple requests to stop are not just "I forgot". They're intentional every time.

Amazing how so many MAGAs are all "I'll never trust Big Pharma to tell me what is safe to put into my body!" while cheering on Republicans doing things like gutting protections against toxic chemicals.

Which makes Epstein's possible murder seem ironic now.

And I'm increasingly wondering how many Jeffrey Epsteins are still out there.

I suspect a lot of these men are also the ones who are terrified of the female libido.

Which I don't get at all considering how many conservatives are so desperate for more women to get married and take their husband's name.

I'm old enough to remember Newt Gingrich saying that he considered lying to Congress and the American people to be impeachable offenses.

Have they blamed "DEI hires" on the misidentification yet?

Anecdotally speaking, there's a huge crossover where I live between "If you're not doing anything wrong then you don't have anything to hide" with those who say "The surveillance state has gotten way out of hand".

Since MAGAs claim that "illegals don't pay taxes" and "ICE is only going after illegals", whose confidential tax information do they think was breached?

Over on Facebook, the VA (my home state) Dept. of Historic Resources announced new historic markers at the sites of several lynchings.

Never ashamed to sink lower than they have, racists are now blaming the victims because "they should have known in that time not to get close to white women".

In the "I wish I were making this up" category, I'm now seeing MAGAs posting on social media that the Buddhist monks walking for peace are "paid protesters".

I just saw a story on right-wing media headlined "Erika Kirk breaks her silence after Bad Bunny's halftime performance", and I thought - She was silent? When?
