The more combative Dems get, the more of this they will run into. It will be a coordinated wave of elite opinion, scolding them, tamping them down. The fight strategy *only* works if they are willing to bull their way through it, blow it off, mock it. (Their history does not raise one's hopes.)

"Jon Ossoff, my advice to him is, if you start calling your political opponents Nazis, maybe it's time to shut up. That's just not what we do here in this country." -- David Brooks, this evening. Remember, Brooks still gets very handsomely rewarded by the fossilized media for saying shit like this

The discourse on antisemitism in the country is such that Mike Rogers can simultaneously attack Abdul El-Sayed *as* antisemitic, as a scary foreign Muslim critic of Israel, and also *with* antisemitism, as a tool of the foreign-born Jewish puppeteer.

"LEAKED: Footage of Abdul El-Sayed fundraising last night in the California home of the far-left Soros family. 

Abdul’s education was paid for by the Soros family and NOW they are funding his campaign to make him a U.S. Senator 

The Soros family is funding Abdul because he will carry out their agenda of: 

➡️ defunding the police 
➡️ emptying prisons, and letting violent criminals & sex offenders back onto the streets 
➡️ gender transition surgeries for minors 
➡️ allowing illegals to vote in American elections 

Abdul is too extreme for Michigan."

Not only should brooks and others shut up. But Ossoff is the best example in the country of a Democrat playing dominance politics and using it to control the whole terms of his race.

question for brooks: what if they are, literally, nazis?

Brooks for some reason seems to have it in for Ossoff.

Perhaps because the Georgia senator doesn't traffic in both-sides claptrap, which has been Brooks' calling card for most or all of his career.

Back to Videos David Brooks: Ossoff Was Wrong To Raise Natalie Harp, It Was "Basically A Sexual Insinuation" Posted By Ian Schwartz On Date August 22, 2026DAVID BROOKS. THE ATLANTIC: thought Ossoff was wrong to raise it in the way he did, because it was basically a sexual insinuation. And I just don't think you should do that.

I also - - when I look at her letters, I think that's inappropriate workplace behavior. And so there's fault on both sides, as we would say. But I think -- first, I don't know what's in her mind or in her heart. Either she is -- has a crush on the president or she understands the president and what he really likes to hear, because she's it laying it on thick, and people in the Trump administration are laying it on thick.

Prop 42 is a cynical, deceptive provision that pretends to "protect retirement savings" (which aren't under threat) but has only 2 real effects: block prop 40 and hand an unpredictable set of weird consequences of its bad drafting to future tax opponents. Shame on its supporters.

@meetthepress.com interview w @abdulelsayed.bsky.social is 100% gotcha, starting w his criticizing Obama 14 years ago, at age 27. Two Qs on that, then 'can you deny ties to Muslim Brotherhood' etc.

He handles them all with aplomb, and keeps coming back to economy, corruption, etc.

But COME ON.

Susan Collins "does what Trump needs her to do to enact his agenda, and sometimes casts a protest vote—but only if she can prearrange it to be meaningless. She is a snake disguised as a muppet."

Calling my shot: we will see less than half as many pundit-consultant pieces about this Latino realignment as we saw in the other direction 2021-2025, because a Latino blue shift doesn’t fit the Dems-Too-Woke narrative

the 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.

I read Rubio’s speech where he does a Prager U recap of Ancient Greek history, and the funniest part is where he praises Achilles for seeking glory in Troy even though it means his death. Yeah, Marco, the Iliad is great. What’s Achilles up to in the sequel?

They’re live-streaming the execution of the person they think they can get away with doing that to first. It’s a test. If they can do that, they’ll expand the margins of permission.
