The United States admired the world over around 1960 was broadly homogeneous, a middle class people without excessive wealth disparities, a sense of itself - and an enemy to focus the mind (USSR).
That’s over. The people who should have maintained it just lined their pockets, opened the borders, lowered their own taxes, and sold their own fellow citizens down the river. What we live in now is the fallout of this betrayal.

There’s a certain brand of American RW that will get very animated if we are even marginally hostile to European interests but somehow totally unconcerned by euros heaping legitimacy on a contested election in our hemisphere
Congratulations to my friend @LulaOficial on his electoral victory.
Democracy and multilateralism have won in Brazil.
Europe’s partnership with Brazil is thriving.
We will remain by your side for the years to come.
Together we will keep working closely for free and open trade.
A rules-based global order.
And strong ambitions for our climate.

Tons of people describing similar experiences all over the country.
Don’t let anyone gaslight you into thinking you should be fine with it.
It’s not fine. It has to be fixed. We must have a country again. Whatever it takes.

Imagine the Supreme Court stopping the count after polls close and ordering polls reopen for two hours ONLY in Philadelphia, Detroit, Milwaukee, and Atlanta, and you sort of get the scope of what's currently happening in Brazil.

The purpose of the DOJ investigating California is to get California to admit stuff like this in federal court filings.

The green shoots are there. The US is escaping a long period of secular stagnation. 👇

In all of the key states, whether it’s Georgia, North Carolina, Texas, Ohio or even South Carolina, the old guard republican establishment is viewing November as their last opportunity to kneecap the Trump revolution..
This is a tug-of-war right now for the future of this party.
If you want to go forward instead of backwards, then you need to get out and vote.

The playbook will go something like this: 1) win back the House and Senate, and hopefully the Presidency in 2028; (2) admit DC and Puerto Rico as states, which doesn’t need a constitutional amendment, to gain 4 new Senate seats and cement control; (3) pack the Court, which only requires a change to the Judiciary Act of 1869, not a constitutional amendment; (4) eliminate the electoral college, which is unconstitutional, but not when you have a rigged court that finds the ‘loophole’; (5) flood the country with pliant migrants, swamp the natives, and hold power indefinitely.

2020 was the end of the media's power to create unifying narratives
Now, their game is to subvert & attack emerging counternarratives - they can't regain legitimacy, but they can prevent challengers from gaining it either
A lot of our friends are looking for solidarity in shared hatreds - but that kind of parasocial, algorithmic coalition is now structurally unworkable, because (as we've seen) it's trivial to jam your IFF & turn the guns inward
The only solidarity that can survive this narrative environment is a shared human history, where you've built things together, spent time with each other's families, etc. so that all these gay aspersions look ridiculous in comparison with what you've physically done & seen together IRL
Anything less robust than that is going to melt

If you receive an inquiry from Slotkin, let me know.
The first line of a response, if one is even required, should be her quote announcing her intent to cause deterrence in participating in government.
That is not a legislative purpose. She's a spent cartridge now.

Very interesting. I keep seeing all these stats showing that Trump is effectively reversing Hart-Celler but Peter Groyper just told me over a minecraft edit that the GOP is putting immigrants over Americans. Who am I to believe?

Western liberals imported the third world into France and other countries in the name of diversity and compassion. They ignored fundamental questions of assimilation and compatibility. They were told it would lead to this and they didn't listen.
I pray that France, a beautiful country of amazing people, will stop this madness before more of its landmarks burn.
And I hope Americans are paying attention. This is the future congressional Democrats seek for your country.
