Just imagine the outrage if in 1997 some billionaire had paid Hillary Clinton $30M for the 'rights' to make a documentary about her.
Or Michelle Obama in 2013.
Or Rosalynn Carter in 1978.

To be more precise, the Russia connection entangles Trump, Melania, Epstein, Musk and Thiel and many others in their immediate entourage... it's one of the things bringing them all together.

It's all the same engine of antagonism.
It's the same dynamic that fueled the backlash to the Feminist Movement: people being confronted with words and actions they partook in 'suddenly' being deemed socially unacceptable, reflexively went into defensive opposition mode than have any kind of "come to Jesus" self-examination/correction.

BIG news from @bloomberg.com, which confirms that ICE has gone ahead and *purchased* multiple commercial warehouses with the aim of converting them into mass detention camps.
This is likely to be the big detention story of 2026 β literal warehousing of people.

Elon wanting to hire a successful, well-regarded fiction writer to improve Grok for $40 per hour - $83K a year - when the median income in San Francisco is $104K, is fucking outrageous cheapness.
He sees he needs this talent, but has complete contempt for its value.

Performative public lying is a hallmark of far right authoritarian parties
And also, the central cleavage in πΊπΈ politics is still neither Democratic vs Republican, nor liberal vs conservative, nor rich vs poor, etc., but rather over the answer to the question, "Who was <actually> president in 2020?"
You could easily bump that up to 40, and also get like half the people in their 40s, as well.

States without income tax are especially dependent on property taxes, so falling home valuations may not see the commensurate savings on property taxes one might think.
