Hey, remember when five different women alleged that Donald Trump walked into the 1997 Miss Teen USA pageant dressing room unannounced while they were changing?
And then he later talked about doing the same thing to Howard Stern?

Two things I hold simultaneously: on the one hand, Democrats absolutely need to be honest about what compromises it’d take to win competitive Senate elections in Red states.
OTOH, Senate apportionment is increasingly incompatible with sustaining the republic and most be addressed directly.

I really feel like more people need to constructively engage with this! You can think the moderation/centrism discourse is often braindead (as I do!) but the center left really needs a pretty robust convo about what winning, say, an Iowa or Kansas or Texas or Ohio senate seat would look like.

Iranian officials are saying that commercial ships transiting the Strait of Hormuz will be required to pay a "Tehran toll," and US warships will not be allowed to transit. Meanwhile Trump continues his blockade of Iranian ports. Yet oil prices are falling on the assumption the the Strait is "open."

The new acting Army chief of staff reassigned three heavy divisions from focusing on the Russian threat in Europe to the new Western Hemisphere Command. Are these armored units supposed to invade Mexico? Greenland? Canada? It makes no sense and sends a dangerous signal to Putin. wapo.st/4gFl3Ey

The Iran quagmire wouldn’t have happened under Trump’s first-term military leaders.

Ending an authoritarian regime requires a level of mass participation that we’ve rarely seen in this country.
Mass protests are an opportunity for regular people to join the movement, and to demonstrate (literally) to everyone that it’s safe and popular to take part. They help build the movement.

This is just regurgitated 1920s eugenics. Today’s restrictionists are practically all descendants of immigrants described in similar terms back then, as generically inferior and inassimilable. bsky.app/profile/maxb...
Elon Musk agrees with Geerts Wilders that “the biggest problem we face is a collapse of our own culture and Western values due to open borders, mass immigration, an uncontrollable amount of non-western asylum seekers.”
He’s all in on the Great Replacement theory.

So much of the US coverage of the German elections is cast in a "sky is falling" AfD rising apocalypse frame. I get it. The AfD is going to 2x its vote and get around 20%. But another way to look at this is that the AfD blew it. The conditions couldn't be better for the AfD to surge and yet. 1/ 🧵

One of the sharpest bits of commentary anyone’s ever told me is that the US isn’t an unusually right wing European country, it’s an unusually wealthy Latin American one.
It's also kind of fascinating how so much US commentary fixates on European examples when the kind of phenomenon MAGA Trumpism represents looks in many ways much closer to the kinds of authoritarian populism you get in Latin America along the lines of versions of Peronism or caudillo politics.
