@jodyrosen.bsky.socialReposted by @jamellebouie.netThe Harper's Letter/U. of Austin vanguard loathes both protests & young people on principle—but the "67" slogan is the opposite of "dumb." It's a historically-minded joke that casts the current uprising as the heir to the May '68 student revolt while winking at Gen Alpha meme-speak. Crack a book?
@jamellebouie.neti think, in some fairness, that a lot of these people were deeply shaken by 2024 and “this was a realignment” is how they make it make sense. the idea that voters saw 2024 as just another election is disturbing to them.
@jamellebouie.netthe formative moments for the various deans of american political commentary were 1984 and 1994. nothing can break the conviction that republicans are the natural governing majority of the country.

@parsnip.bsky.socialReposted by @jamellebouie.netdc statehood is non-negotiable after trump's actions in his second term. republicans despise the people of the city that hosts them, and there is little reason to think that, now that the seal is broken on treating them as an occupied population, a next republican president will be more restrained

@eliasisquith.blogReposted by @jamellebouie.neti genuinely think they make him do this because they know he’s bad at it because he gets bad reviews because it’s bad for his brand and because they’re extremely mad about all his iran leaks.
@jamellebouie.nethuh, interesting that vance thinks this is the worst terrorist attack and not oklahoma city
@urocklive1.bsky.socialReposted by @jamellebouie.netOf course the Trump Savings Accounts for kids turns out to be scam.
In effect, "our president is helping rich donors offload overvalued stocks onto children, who are forced to hold the stocks for five years whether they want to or not."
@waldo.netReposted by @jamellebouie.netThis is pretty funny. This is the story of conspiracy theorists trying to document their conspiracy to clear the lowest of legal bars, but they keep discovering that their theories don’t fit the facts. These people then quit, to be replaced by new conspiracy theorists. Repeat forever.
@jamellebouie.netthis is distinct from the bipartisan political consensus that enabled Watergate
