Early in Trump's first term, David Frum wrote that every time Trump and MAGA say "the deep state" you should hear "rule of law," then it'll make more sense. That stuck with me. And I thought of it again as an unqualified and unconfirmed director of national intelligence conducts political purges.

(THREAD) Let me reframe this. Blue states FUND red states as red states say that it is BLUE STATES that live off others. Blue states adhere to the CONSTITUTION as red states CLAIM to love it but undermine it at every turn. Red states adore the CONFEDERACY but lecture the rest of us on patriotism.
The condescension. One thing I’ve learned (re-learned really) from being on BlueSky is the depth of condescension that liberal elites have for the rest of us. Yes, we have problems as does every state, but if net positive interstate migration is to our areas then maybe there’s something about

Hungary just elected a new PM who wasted zero time — he shut down state propaganda, called out the corrupt officials by name, and started the reckoning on day one. It made me want to write down exactly what that should look like here. So I did. open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

"How about the White House ballroom?" 🏰 Judge Boasberg just absolutely humiliated the DOJ for their sham investigation into Jerome Powell. He caught them red-handed using the law for a political hit job. www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/the-resist...

Here's an example of fraud in a previous election for Speaker Johnson: Arizona Republicans caught in the act of signing fake elector forms in 2020. It would be a shame if many people saved this receipt--and reposted (the crap out of) it.
Q: Can you give one example of fraud in a previous election that the SAVE America Act would stop? MIKE JOHNSON: Look, we're not gonna litigate all that
