The Intellectual and Moral Decline of the American Right
The conservative backlash against Nick Fuentes has yet to challenge the president who had him over for dinner.
The Heritage Foundation, after its founding in 1973, quickly became “the most influential think tank in America,” Peter Wehner argues—and it’s “as good an institution as any in which to study the intellectual and moral decline of the American right.”

She may try to run as an independent for Senate or Gov in Ga. Either way, her remarks that Pelosi should be put to death as a traitor should haunt her forever.

AOC to @pabloreports.bsky.social : A swastika is one of the clearest symbols of hatred in all of humanity… to remove that designation… indicates a possible collaboration with those very elements, which I think is genuinely frightening to any American.

Undocumented immigrants (tens of millions guilty of this misdemeanor crime) are a net positive to the American economy. It’s what the data tells us - irrefutable fact.
The Trump/Vance/Republican agenda is a constant mix of idiocy & evil.

These idiots destroyed what The Economist just a year ago called "The American Economy: The Envy of the World" and said we could "expect that to continue."
What are we waiting for? Them to leave office?

Seems odd that we never talk about the fact that Donald Trump's father-in-law was born in the USSR, was a member of the Communist Party for decades, has been accused of crimes, and worked for the state after Yugoslavia detached from the USSR
He also always had more money than anyone could explain

The fact that no main stream media has the balls to tell the truth about crypto (fundamentally anti-American) is evidence that journalism is dead. Perhaps it’s not courage that is lacking but rather, a lack of patriotism and/or intellect. Damn. #WSJ #GA

Apollo Global CEO Marc Rowan says since 2008, regulators have made reforms to the financial system focused on banks, but they haven’t kept pace with what’s happened in markets more broadly.

The Biden administration had an open investigation into Epstein’s coconspirators. This past January, Trump killed it, fired the prosecutors, and stole the files.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.
Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.
Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.
It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.
It’s about priorities.

I wonder how this compares to security provided to families of those targeted by Trump, such as election workers he falsely accused of fraud who faced death threats due to his lies.

The fact that Megyn Kelly minimized raping 15 year olds and wasn't immediately canceled from every platform, including @siriusxmprog.bsky.social and YouTube, tells you EVERYTHING that is wrong with right wing media and this country in general.

👇🎯 Today in "The reason all of the awful & illegal things keep happening in 🇺🇸 politics - from Trump to GWB/torture to Iran-Contra to Watergate, all the way back to Appomattox - is because there are never any legal or personal consequences for all of awful & illegal things happening in 🇺🇸 politics.
