Kevin is not exaggerating, VDARE was not white nationalist in the sense of "well if you get right down to it the modern GOP has always been white nationalist" VDARE was white nationalist in the sense of "yeah those Nazis sure are white nationalist"

Gonna go out on a limb here and say racist cranks who write for extremist white nationalist websites like VDARE should not, in fact, be confirmed to top roles in the Department of Justice.

Fetterman himself said he doesn’t consider himself to be a progressive anymore. This doesn’t even make sense

Fetterman says America has a responsibility to Israel because Israel has "progressive values"

The media's takeaway from an El-Sayed win is the same as it would have been from a Stevens win, and the same as it will be if El-Sayed wins the general, or if he loses it: everyone, no matter who they are, needs to take several steps to the right.

Congratulations to the Haley Stevens campaign on their crackerjack strategy of being super islamaphobic and weirdly antisemitic to Jewish people who disagreed with her policies

"If we were to say who defends more men than Andrew Tate, I would tell you no institution defends men and protects them more than the WNBA." Just a reminder that these guys will literally just say anything. That's all they do. Don't ever take them seriously. www.mediamatters.org/patrick-bet-...

John Cornyn & Thom Tillis issue a joint statement announcing they will support Todd Blanche for AG. He's now in good position to clear the Judiciary Committee tomorrow and head to the full Senate.

So many centrist democrats are just islamaphobic racists in denial. It’s so disgusting.

These two need to go. They are both so breathtakingly corrupt

Santiago Mayer@santiagomayer.com · 3d ago

Schumer and Gillibrand chose all-out war with Mallory McMorrow because they expected Stevens would win in a head-to-head. That calculus seems to be blowing up on their face.

A good commissioner steps in now before every WNBA game becomes a rightwing performance space, like school board meetings were during peak CRT. You just have to throw the hammer down on this. Do not give them an inch.

Hey, can people who claim to be Democrats stop being so fucking racist towards Muslims? You sound like republicans.

Not only did they absolutely beg for this, they made it so that “merit” was synonymous with being white so now you’re stuck with precisely the kind of moron who believes that. www.politico.com/news/magazin...

Oh look. Another “democrat” being racist. @natsechobbyist.bsky.social shame on you.

O’Neal helped purge me & all the other Black full-time staff columnists at the Post Opinion Section. I challenged his move to fire me in the aftermath of the Charlie Kirk killing. And he testified against me in June. We are expecting an arbitration ruling soon. Convenient time for him to quit.

If Dems have a brand problem, perhaps centrists telling voters “I’m not like those other Democrats who hate Jews” has more to do with it than city-run grocery stores

She knows she’s losing so she said let’s just go mask off.

chat you just don't get it every beltway journalist and op ed writer from the heritage foundation to the free press are all earnestly trying their best to help the Democratic Party be best and they have nothing but good wishes for the Democratic Party and just want the Democratic party succeed

Former @post-gazette.com workers went on strike for 3+ years and won. Then, the owners sold the paper and most strikers lost their jobs. Now, they’ve launched @pittsburghprogress.bsky.social “owned and democratically run by its workers and members.” therealnews.com/worker-owned...

99% of the time, when someone accuses you of selective outrage, it’s a way of politically demobilizing you and shutting you up “Why are you angry about data centers instead of fast fashion” isn’t about making you care about fast fashion. It’s about shutting you up about data centers And visa versa

THANK YOU. Great read and spot on analysis regarding what’s happening in this party.

Paul Waldman@paulwaldman.bsky.social · 6d ago

If the centrist Democrats saying the party is doomed if it nominates lefty candidates could point to their own political achievements, they’d have a much stronger case to make. The latest at my newsletter: paulwaldman.substack.com/p/why-the-de...

This is absolutely insane, imagine if a progressive elected official was refusing to support Haley Stevens if she won! You’d never hear the end of it. Centrists are the ones who are dividing the Democratic Party with their Islamophobia and purity tests.

Bernie Moreno was a car salesman with a record of wage theft and employment discrimination. Anthony Fauci was the director of NIAID from 1984 to 2022 and in 2008 was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom for his work fighting HIV/AIDS in that role.

Moreno to Fauci: "Who the fuck did you think you were?"

This hearing is driven entirely by Elon Musk's algorithm. Not a single normie voter alive today has thought about Anthony Fauci for at least five years. On X this is a pressing issue - maybe the pressing issue - of the day. It doesn't matter at all.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · last wk.

Moreno to Fauci: "Who the fuck did you think you were?"

This Fauci hearing is the biggest explosion of right wing brainworms I've ever seen. Years of debunked and absurd antivax and "gain of function" conspiracy theories expressed as incoherent screaming at an 85 year old man. It's absolutely demented and embarrassing to watch.
