' Part of the magic trick the right-wing does is get you to focus on specifics — restrooms, school showers, books — so you don’t notice your pocket being picked. It’s a totalitarian smokescreen that works for a while, then dissipates. Reality eventually intrudes.... '

' Imagine members strutting around the corridors of Congress in late 2001 with a Boeing 747 lapel pin, or wearing a spiky replica of the coronavirus when New York City’s morgues were overflowing in the spring of 2020. Explain to me how worshiping an AR-15 — when the blood stains are still being scrubbed off a dance studio in Monterey Park, Club Q in Colorado Springs, or a bus in Charlottesville — is any different, really?

Republicans came this close to a fistfight on the House floor. About what? They're all agreed on their top priorities: defunding the IRS so it can't catch rich tax cheats; Hunter Biden's laptop; Fauci's crime of trying to save American lives and the alleged weaponization of the FBI led by Trump appointee Wray. The circus is in town and finally has its head clown. #PolitClowns #USRepublicans #McCarthy #PolitCircus

There are still many commentators who want to see a moderate conservative in #DeSantis. That's not a fair assessment. Instead, he's Trump 2.0.

Don’t trust people who keep promising a GOP pivot that never comes
The 2022 midterm elections are finally over. They ended on Tuesday with another Democratic victory over a Trumpist candidate in another high-stakes, high-profile race in another purple state. Raphael Warnock defeated Herschel Walker in the Georgia senate runoff – that’s good news for Democrats, good news for (small-d) democrats, good news for anyone who values having reasonably qualified people in political office.

Texas’ anti-trans bills reminiscent of treatment of Jews in pre-war Germany
Watching Republicans adopt violent transphobia as a central plank of their party is alarming, but it’s not without precedent.

Trump hosted a leading Holocaust denier and white power activist for dinner: What to take away from this latest reminder of who Trump is and what the Republican base wants, and why we must not be lulled into a false sense of security by the ridiculousness of it all – And we dive deep into the question of how to best capture and describe the defining political conflict: Why we are experiencing a counter-mobilization, rather than a backlash; by reactionaries, rather than conservatives; against egalitarian multiracial, pluralistic democracy, rather than simply democracy.

His guest, white supremacist Nick Fuentes, is trying to bend conservatism to his will.
The 24-year-old white nationalist Nick Fuentes dined with Donald Trump and Kanye West (who now goes by Ye) at Mar-A-Lago last week. For the last six years, Fuentes has built up a following on Twitter, Twitch, and other social media platforms while touting his support for antisemitism, fascism, and the creation of a white ethnostate. In that time, he has become one of the clearest successors of the white power, alt-right movement.
