Opinion | The Rise of the Inflatable Chicken Resistance

"Frivolity and absurdity are kryptonite to authoritarians who project the stern-father archetype to their followers. Once the pants are lowered and the undies of the despot are glimpsed, there is no point of return."

The only time I interacted with David Sacks, some billionaire Trump lackey, was on Twitter and I told him the only thing I knew about him was that he'd been confidently, aggressively wrong about Russia from the moment they invaded Ukraine. He said he'd never heard of me, which was fair.

You may be living in an absolutely racist country when 13-year-old Black boys are tried and sentenced as adults, but white dudes who *are* adults are called "kids" by JD Vance to shield them from culpability.

Opinion | Republicans Know How Vulnerable Trump Is. The Attacks on No Kings Prove It.

They send a signal to the most disconnected parts of the US public that the president is far from as popular as he says he is, and they send a clear warning to those institutions under pressure from the administration: Bend the knee and lose our business and support.

We're all ANTIFA, Donald. Hey Donald,

"And simply by virtue of the fact that we are anti-fascist Americans, we are dangerous to you, which actually says more about you and your sycophantic coconspirators than it does about us. We haven’t lost the plot here, you have."

Trump open to invoking the Insurrection Act The comments came a day after a federal judge blocked the president from sending National Guard troops to Portland, Oregon.

🚨 The soft coup is now a hard one!

After Miller called judges “insurrectionists”, a judge’s home was burned to the ground. That’s called stochastic terrorism.

Now Trump is suggesting that he may use the insurrection act to ignore the courts and the constitution.

How Originalism Killed the Constitution A radical legal philosophy has undermined the process of constitutional evolution.

After Dobbs and Bruen, public estimation of the legitimacy of the Court fell to record lows. This year, after Trump returned to the White House, he was asked whether he has a duty to uphold the Constitution. He said he didn’t know. Think about that.

America, Who The Hell Do You Think You Are? We all have a story we tell ourselves: about what we value, about who we are, about our presence in this world.

"If you tell yourself that your faith in Jesus directs your path, and yet you continue to abide or embrace a man whose every word, whose every instinct, whose every decision is the antithesis of your religion’s namesake, that faith is worthless."
