Trump really brought this upon himself imo. Going into the presidency, libs were so demoralized and I don’t think there was a big appetite for protest. But he immediately displayed so much incompetence and did so much harm that it breathed life back into the resistance.

It's funny that the leftist critique of the Harris campaign and the billionaire-funded popularist superPAC critique of the Harris campaign are basically the same. Usually these groups blame each other, but in this case it seems clear the brainworms were coming from another source

RT by @jdcmedlock: Another Update: the U.S. Senate Ag Committee just released their version of the “Big Beautiful Bill” — and it would specifically single out millions of homeless people and troops (vets) to be kicked off SNAP!

Yes! I was worried the theoretical popularity of work requirements might overshadow the massive unpopularity of Medicaid cuts, but it seems like the message is getting through. Keep posting!

R to @jdcmedlock: I don’t expect much from The Free Press and the Yale Law professor author, but the source article was posted in Bloomberg as a “yay wokeness” piece. I think if you do an obvious statistical error and accidentally produce white supremacist propaganda, you really should retract.

It’s honestly astounding that this debunked stat is still being used with a straight face. We need to bring back feeling shame for publishing obvious falsehoods.

R to @jdcmedlock: The only take missing is "this is not Abundance and that's good" - but an eagle eyed NIMBY might see the anti "one-size-fits all" dog whistle and think that. Personally, I'm a big fan of one-size-fits-all solutions
