This fact makes GOP heads explode: Every single Trump state, including FL & TX, is a welfare state subsidized by taxpayers in blue states. Every red state receives more federal $ than they contribute. Every one. All of them. Rely on majority Dem taxpayers for their state spending

The exit wound from an AR15 gunshot is larger than many smaller children's heads or chests, which is one of the reasons why we, as parents, now have to submit their fingerprints when filling out the forms for their student IDs. Take all the fucking time you need with that.

I’m not dressed in a Biden Snuggie, wearing a Biden cowboy hat, Biden chaps or using a Biden beer koozie. I’m not waving a California King-sized Biden flag, and I do not have Biden’s face painted anywhere on myself or on my car. And I am not spending my Saturday morning waiting

My theory is that a large and growing number of prominent conservatives (politicians, media personalities, etc.) are incapable of even feigning fluency in fiscal policy because they've been talking about culture war stuff nonstop for like eight years.
There are available SVB narratives that conservatives should like. (e.g., "Dems did too much fiscal stimulus while the Fed was asleep at the switch in 2021, and that necessitated these rapid rate hikes that made SVB insolvent") But they're mostly interested in prattling about DEI

.@chrislhayes on the GOP response to the Ohio train disaster: "Republicans can complain all they want. But what do you want to do? They can't really offer any real solutions. Because, in the end, this is just a classic story about corporate interests and regulation."

if you want to decode the language of the new right - simply substitute a hard "R" N-word anytime they use the word "woke"

Ron DeSantis doesn't want to stifle the teaching of things like slavery and jim crow because its black history. He wants to ban it because slavery and jim crow are white history.

Right now McCarthy will trade mouth or hand stuff for nothing more than a motion to adjourn vote, if you are wondering what sort of political capital he still has left
