Pet peeve: complaints that Dems have bad messaging/do nothing by accounts who follow no elected officials or experts in their fields.

FWIW, both of VDARE’s founders were on the masthead of the National Review in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Peter Brimelow was also a staffer for Senator Orrin Hatch. This white nationalist thread has been present in the conservative movement for a long time. Screenshot is from 1997.

SCHIFF: You told my staff you stood by your article in white nationalist website VDARE where you wrote, 'Muslim immigrants & their kids seem prone to terrorism' C: I wrote that article in support of Trump's travel ban S: Do you stand by it? C: I stand by that article S: That's all I need to know

I don't know who needs to hear this, but a 1% win in MI where the 2 normal Dems split the vote is not the mandate against (((AIPAC))) Leftists are claiming. Cori Bush losing by 20 points, however? Sorry kids, that shows most voters don't make hatred of Jews their top priority.

Trump pressured his DOJ to try and indict me for making a video: he failed. Trump tried to make a DOJ fund to pay J6 cop-beaters: he failed (for now). Trump tried to get the DOJ to cover up this botched Reflecting Pool renovation: he failed.   Big loser energy. Accountability is coming.

Trump’s Meddling in Justice Dept. Causes Problems of His Own Making

In the past week alone, President Trump’s interference has imperiled one criminal case, set the stage for sanctions in a second and hindered the confirmation chances of his pick for attorney general.

We are dumb. The US withdrew from WHO. DOGE severely downsized a CDC lab that deals with outbreaks like cyclospora. We are in the middle of a cyclospora outbreak, with 11,000 cases in Michigan. Measles hits a 30 yr high. Now this. 🧪 www.nytimes.com/2026/07/30/h...

Hey @emmarjanssen.bsky.social Saying Black voters don’t like racist antisemitic DSA candidates because they’re uneducated is not the flex you think it is. Sanders tried the same thing, calling Black voters “low information” because they didn’t buy his 40 year old stump speech.

there's a lot of evidence if anyone wants to look at it, that this is who Platner always was, there are NEWS! articles from the first months Platner was overseas where he talks about having always wanted to be in a war, not serve his country but be at war.

Ukraine and the world have seen horrifying footage from Kherson today - a Russian drone hunting down a civilian. This person is Mr. Yurii, he sells vegetables. At about 6.30 a.m., Mr. Yurii was putting out the produce by the market, as he does every day⤵️

One more interesting point: this spring I sat down with Sharyn Alfonsi of 60 Minutes for an extensive interview about my Epstein investigation. Subsequently, CBS pulled the segment and fired the reporter. The MAGA buyout of media has unquestionably aided the Trump administration’s cover up here.

Bombshell new report out from my investigators this morning spanning our four year investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s financial records. This report shows exactly how Wall Street protected Epstein and enabled his sex trafficking for decades. Mega thread following with some key points:
