"Speaking from positions of immense power, they are using the idea as a tool to further their own power—precisely what the concept is meant to warn against." @matthewdtaylor.bsky.social on Thiel, Vance, and the Antichrist:
How Vance and Thiel Get the Antichrist Backwards
One is doing a bit of cynical pandering, the other is condemning anyone opposed to the tech future—and neither is willing to look in the mirror.

ICE-Gestapo shot a man in NYC with his 5 year old son in the back seat, then they rammed through protesters who were trying to block their vehicle from leaving the scene. I’ll say it again and again, ICE aren’t agents or law enforcement, they are terrorists, murderers and white supremacists.
There is no dispute that some ppl entered the country illegally with criminal intentions. But, don’t overlook that many U.S. prisons are overcrowded. America has a great of criminals. Certainly one of the more disgusting things about ICE is their vicious means and lack of regard for others.
Markwayne with an edge to his voice holding a presser said ‘2% of the population can destroy a city’. But, one man in the White House can destroy a country.
Surprised trump didn’t want part of it and offered to hold it on the South Lawn.
Lindsay Beyerstein@beyerstein.bsky.social · 10h agoThis is so obvious that it obviously never occurred to Hegseth.
She learned a few things working in the trump administration.
Khashoggi's Ghost@urocklive1.bsky.social · 9h agoDeters, a right-wing podcast host, failed political candidate, and suspended lawyer wanted help with some tax issues, and for the Trump admin to extradite a doctor whose alleged fraud victims he was advising. Guilfoyle, wanted money—in one instance, a $100,000 wire—and she wanted it untraceable.
I love this so much❤️ 122 new dads met their babies for the very first time yesterday when the USS Abraham Lincoln finally returned to San Diego. Families waited almost a year for this moment.
trump didn’t make money like this before he was president. He just refused to pay ppl and sued ppl.

The Nobel committee rejected Trump again. Obama hasn't been president in nearly a decade and he's still living rent-free in Trump's head.
ICE can’t be reformed. It must be eliminated. #AbolishICE *
El-Sayed: "He called himself the 'champion of big pharma.' I don't work for them. I don't work for big insurance, who has also bought him off, I don't work for big tech, who has bought him off, I don't work for DTE, who has also bought him off, I work for the people."
trump hides those feelings but we know exactly how he feels by his actions. By his use of ICE and the more brutality they exact trump revels in it. He’s an autocrat.

Jon Ossoff didn’t just show up to debate Mike Collins. He owned the stage. Calm, confident, prepared, and in complete control. Collins, on the other hand, looked like he regretted showing up.
trump has lost control of ICE. He doesn’t care how ICE does his dirty work. In his mind this makes trump look tough and ruthless like his pals Putin and Kim. If ppl can’t see that trump is not well mentally what will it take.

Another very long day. One of the lessons I have learned is that it is not enough to simply do the work of fighting for democracy. Lawyers must show their work to the public and explain the stakes. That is why I started Democracy Docket. Help me grow it by subscribing today. demdock.com/4w6emld
We can’t do this. trump will use this to his advantage. We will show trump our vote. NOV 3. VOTE BLUE
Raider@iwillnotbesilenced.bsky.social · 18h agoWe stand in solidarity with our migrant and demand ICE off our streets.
And trump turned on his own. Sen. Cornyn is out after 24 yrs and trump picked Paxton to fill his place. What a joke. Vote for Talarico. VOTE BLUE. YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT.

#Kansas Evergy got $493 million without competitive bidding. You paid for it on your utility bill. Adam Hamilton would require competition -cutting your costs 20-30%. That's how markets should work for your family, not just for corporations. Adam will help you afford more! #Pinks #ProudBlue
Mortgage rates have increased now for *7 weeks in a row* They're at the highest levels in almost *3 years* This is EXACTLY what Donald Trump said he wants to do Can't afford to buy a home or even rent an apartment? Now you know why It's the #CostOfTrumpsCorruption And we're ALL paying for it
The Bulwark@thebulwark.com · 8mo agoTrump: "I don't want to drive housing prices down. I want to drive housing prices up for people who own homes."
Mike Rogers wanted no part of this debate against El-Sayed. In fact, he only agreed to it once he saw the Michigan polls-and realized this would be his only shot to win the race In retrospect, Mike should’ve thrown away his shot

El-Sayed on Mike Rogers's Florida mansion: "He just recently took it off the market, which of course to me implies that he's planning to move back in November once we hand him his rear end"
What? She fits right in with the rest of the trump administration.
Freedom Writers Collaborative@fwcollaborative.bsky.social · 2d agoWant integrity & competence in our leaders? Want to stop corrupt abuses of power? Confirm you currently are registered & have the ID & documents you need to vote. VOTE EARLY.
Ossoff is definitely not listening to Yglesias/Klein/PodSave reactionary centrist crowd, he does not think his marginal voter is a white-supremacist, and that is what makes him such an attractive candidate to the vast majority of US who are not white-supremacists.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 21h agoOssoff says that Mike Collins has "hired half the Third Reich to staff your congressional office"
Umm, *I was the “somebody”! www.c-span.org/clip/house-c...
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 21h agoEl-Sayed: "When Mike Rogers was in Congress, he literally told somebody from the stand, 'If you don't know your privacy is being violated, is it really being violated?' It's like the peeping tom vote you're going after."
