This is what I’ve been posting about…. To you.
@evanwch This was my home town.
You have gotta love how condescending Ben Affleck became with Sam Harris. They’re only Card is condescension at this point.
Ben Affleck Clashes With Bill Maher and Sam Harris Over Whether Criticizing Islamic Beliefs Is Islamophobia and racicm
Sam Harris: “Liberals have failed us. We have been sold this meme of Islamophobia where every criticism of the doctrine of Islam gets conflated with bigotry toward Muslims as people.”
Ben Affleck: “Are you the person who understands the officially codified doctrine of Islam? You're the interpreter of that?”
Sam Harris: “I'm actually well educated on this topic.”
Ben Affleck: “Well, it's not a real thing when we do it.”
Sam Harris: “We have to be able to criticize bad ideas.”
Bill Maher: “Because it's gross. It's racist.”
Ben Affleck: “You're not listening to what we are saying. You guys are saying, if you want to be liberals, believe in liberal principles like freedom of speech… all men are created equal.”
Sam Harris: “Islamism is the motherlode of bad ideas.”
Ben Affleck: “Or how about more than a billion people who aren't fanatical, who don't punch women, who just want to go to the store?”
Bill Maher: “All these billion people don't hold any of those—”
Sam Harris: “Don't hold these pernicious beliefs? I would—”
Bill Maher: “That's just not true, Ben.”

The coastal elites hate Americana. We know what they really think, and we know why they are so quickly defending Obama’s snobbery. They might think they are “too good” for the Cheesecake Factory, or find the decor to be tacky, but most regular Americans don’t
Nothing else has given me quite the giggle than this, in a while.

Why Talarico Is Losing Texas in the Home Stretch
Former Democratic Political Strategist Evan Barker believes Democrats have neglected rural Texans in the midterm elections, and are underestimating their distaste for a candidate like James Talarico. Barker shares her findings on Democratic advertising in rural areas and how it will impact voter turnout.
Good stuff
Aaron Siri just revealed the real reason why New York launched a massive legal attack on unvaccinated Amish communities.
“These kids are healthy.”
“They don’t suffer from any of the chronic diseases that plague American children.”
“If this was about health, New York State should be looking at these kids as models and asking, why are they healthier?”
“Why do these… Amish children not suffer from the chronic health conditions that are plaguing over 40% [of children] according to the CDC?”
“Some data reflects even higher.”
“This is up from under 10% of kids having a chronic health condition in America in the early ’80s.”
“What’s changed?”
“Maybe they should take a look at this community instead of trying to force upon them the same type of lifestyle that… has resulted in that increase.”

France has the most socially progressive laws on the books. Why do you think these things didn’t work out?
From the high schools of France to the streets of Madrid to the universities of Tirana, young people are telling their governments the same thing: in an age of massive wealth inequality, they want a future they can believe in.
In France, students and teachers are asking for safe schools, enough teachers and smaller classes.
In Spain, for affordable rent and housing.
In Albania, for good jobs and an end to corruption.
@JDVance says this is what happens when a nation lets in too many immigrants from the global south.
He is not just morally wrong, but misreading the moment.
The is what happens when nations let wealth and power accumulate in the hands of a few.
This is what happens when young people lose hope in their future.
In America, let us listen to our young.
We need an economic and political transformation.
America's Next New Deal.

Wow, Fauci is such a freak. Here he is arguing against a CDC that wants to let people make their own choices to get tested or not before being "let out." Bonkers stuff. He imagined himself to be the nation's prison warden.

Here’s a dem consulting firm that specializes in digital fundraising who openly advertises themselves on their website as working w campaigns & orgs that fight for “racial justice,” “climate action” and “intersectional feminism” among other things. Why are these still top lines in 2026?
