they're also sucked into an total ideology (the various strands of bay area right wing futurism) that tells them they will transform the universe if only they get rid of the wreckers and hoarders in their way

this is less egregious than the bruenig measles article, but why have the devout mormon write this rather than literally anyone else on staff with more relevant expertise? just the naughty frisson of it all?

Maryland Democrats met their goal to contest every State House race The Maryland Democratic Party has fielded a candidate for all 188 seats in the General Assembly, a key goal of its “Contest Every Seat” initiative.

Md Democrats are fielding candidates in all 188 state Senate and House of Delegates seats for the 1st time in 50+ years.

“We think in this moment that there are a lot of people who are looking for a new political home,” said party chair Steuart Pittman.

same, enjoy the productivity gains while they last I guess, but I think these people are extremely blinkered about their continuing value as knowledge workers or whatever they’re telling themselves

Insurrectionist Brunch: Trumpists plotted to deploy military on U.S. soil Before the 2024 election, a cadre of MAGA loyalists met over brunch to plot ways for Trump to use the military domestically.

This is just astonishingly great reporting.

All of the crises the White House has claimed over the last 14 months were planned in advance. All of them.

And however much contempt you have for media outlets who reverently relayed Trump's claim to have no relation to Project 2025, it isn't enough.
