i saw some early speculation that the Trump/Musk "Feud" has a bit of a pro wrestling feel. In a lot of way Musk turns "heel" on Trumpers. We'll see the "Turn" in November '26. i'm just not sure the country has an attention span that long Meanwhile, enjoy

I think AMTRAK would save more than a cheap rental.

An EO canceling all Musk's goverment contracts would probably be illegal. Trump's tried worse, let's see what the SC says

Question. Can Trumpers honestly say that the Republican base does not practice what the (dis)Honorable Senator calls idealogical capture? And if it's illegal for a private educational institution (like Harvard) shoulda't it be illegal for another institution (like Liberty, or Hillsdale for example) who also receives federal funding?

Frederick Douglas was right

You rooted for TACO, you own it now. Too chicken to defend his actions???!

It’s your Department to run, you own it

The author of the 2025 Agenda is throwing Trump under the bus. WTF

And all of that began to unravel with the disenchantment with the Viet Nam War and protests, throw in the race riots of the late 60s and a few other incidents. By the early to mid70s most of the blue collar Democrats switched parties. The problem is not many of them came back to the fold and either became staunch Republicans or remain "independents"

I personally like this take on the whole "Democratic Party argument" https://www.thebulwark.com/p/the-democratic-partys-problems-real?utm_source=substack&publication_id=87281&post_id=165181488&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&utm_campaign=email-share&triggerShare=true&isFreemail=false&r=45wcm&triedRedirect=true

There seems to be a lot of this going around in MAGA circles. Yet they want to gut education

In July 2016, Ray Mabus, then United States Secretary of the Navy, advised Congress that he intended to name the John Lewis-class oilers after prominent civil rights leaders, with this ship to be named in honor of gay rights activist Harvey Milk.[5] The ship was officially named at a ceremony in San Francisco on 16 August 2016.[6][7] Though Milk was gay, this ship is not the first US Navy ship named for an openly gay person, as that would be the WWI troopship USS Von Steuben (ID-3017), commissioned in 1917 and named for a revolutionary war hero and one of the Founding Fathers of the United States.[8] Per Wikipedia

Forget protecting our country from enemies. Let’s go after the WOKES

Everything he touches….

Mmmmmm

These "Trade Agreements" are becoming the 2025 version of Infrastructure Week

One more thing from JVL

Meanwhile the other side of the coin today's JVL missive https://www.thebulwark.com/p/meet-the-worst-people-in-america?utm_source=substack&publication_id=87281&post_id=165011642&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&utm_campaign=email-share&triggerShare=true&isFreemail=false&r=45wcm&triedRedirect=true Talking about some very fine folks in Kennett, MO who are upset because one of their own was caught in the ICE Trap... Shot and Chaser

Not sure about the strategy here. Trumpublicans will gladly take the free handouts while trashing benefits.

It's the third of June....
