1/ Developments in Syria going so fast that reports become obsolete moments later. I've reported from inside Syria since 2011 and I live in the MidEast. So, let me explain in this thread what the implications could be for Syria and wider region in case the Syrian regime falls:

Candidly folks, you can point fingers all you want, but @JoeTrippi is right here: this defeat has been decades in the making because of the inability - or refusal - of Democrats to seriously try and counter this disciplined rage maching of the other side

It's The Networks, Stupid. Among all the reasons for the loss and the growing threat to democracy is the right’s unanswered creation and ownership of propaganda networks on communications platforms from cable television to social media. The power of what they have built is…

JUST IN: Pennsylvania Democrats appear to have kept control of the state House. Cambria County just added ballots & nearly finished counting, keeping Dem lawmaker Frank Burns on top by 3% in very Trumpian area. So Democrats retain a 102-101 majority: no change in seats at all.

the fundamental problem Democrats have is that while the right has an entire media ecosystem built to bash Democrats the left also has an entire media ecosystem…built to bash Democrats

the right has built an almost incomprehensibly vast worldwide nazi-recruitment-and-radicalization machine and aimed at every man below 30 on the globe, and the democrats' response is like "we're gonna get them back with student debt relief :)"


would it be less outrageous if young men out-earned young women in 100% of US metros? seems pretty fucking sexist.

Young women are out-earning young men in several U.S. cities

When I was forced to escape Putin's crackdown in Russia and made my home in America, I never imagined I would be warning my new home about the threat of authoritarianism. But thanks to Trump, here we are. My article: thedispatch.com/article/us-des…

It’s madness. Where is the stream of front page stories on Trump calling for military tribunals and prison time for his political rivals and critics?

Uh, if Trump's team is planning to pull vaccines off the market, I hope we can talk about that some before the election. This will lead directly to preventable epidemics and many thousands of dead children.

Trump transition co-chair Howard Lutnick in interview on CNN says after 2.5 hour talk with RFK Jr. he is convinced vaccines are causing autism. "Why do you think vaccines are safe?" he asks @kaitlancollins

Which of these issues affects Americans’ lives more? The ACA and vaccines or an unclear statement by Biden that he quickly clarified? We all know the answer to that question. So why would the press prioritize the latter over the former?

The American political press is fundamentally broken.

This media obsession with *just* the comedian’s racist jokes works in Trump and the GOP’s favor. They make it all about the comedian and get to ignore the speaker who called Harris the anti-Christ and the Devil, the speaker who referred to her ‘pimp handlers,’ the speaker who…

Trump: "I don't know anything about the comedian. I don't know who he is. I've never seen him. I heard he made a statement but it was just a statement that he made. He's a comedian, what can I tell you? I know nothing about him."

Many don’t realize that the first people Hitler sent to his concentration camps weren’t everyday Jewish citizens, but his political opponents. So, when Trump rants about retribution, locking up his opponents, and giving them “very long sentences,” I can’t help but take him…

The reminder is: your readers and viewers on to things like false-balance and the other ways you take them for granted in appeasing your right-wing tormentors. It turns out they’re prepared to abandon you by the hundreds of thousands. offmessage.net/p/trump-resist…

Trump’s emerging opposition to the CHIPS Act is only one of his proposals to stop rebuilding US chip manufacturing. The other is his 20% tariffs on the Dutch, Japanese, etc. tools that new US fabs will need to actually make the chips. (20% on a $300 million EUV machine hurts).

Compare and contrast: a clip from Trump's June 2015 speech announcing his candidacy and a clip from Trump's low-energy speech today at Mar-a-Lago. The difference is jarring.
