It really puts the power of the cult in perspective. This woman is clearly capable of empathy, yet she must have lived in such a media bubble that what seem like patently obvious truths never made their way to her. Powerful stuff. Thank you.

Trump said communities against A.I. data centers want to be “backwards and poor.” We went to one of those communities, which Trump won by 44 points in 2024. #MAGAEverAfter

When I interviewed Hasan Piker at the end of June, I asked him about the possibility that he could become a liability for Abdul El-Sayed in the general election. Here's what he had to say:

Five years on from his infamous cyber symposium, MyPillow man Mike Lindell is running for governor of Minnesota. With Trump's endorsement he has a real shot of winning the Republican primary next Tuesday. Sen. Amy Kloubacher is the likely Democratic nominee.

"I am not going to be in the same party with Hasan Piker ... if he becomes a force in the Democratic Party, I am out of here," James Carville says on Fox this morning. Reminder: The Left Insurgency airs tonight on CNN at 8p ET.

🧵Democrats/the left have close to as comprehensive an online media ecosystem now as MAGA had four years ago. From Crooked Media and Meidas to Hasan Piker and Zeteo -- even Ezra Klein at the NYT. This has been essential to the rise of democratic socialist candidates.

But just as MAGA media helped remake the Republican Party into the party of Trump, some in the Democratic Party worry these new blue outlets could pull their party to an extreme.

Quite a transformation in a decade: when The Young Turks was the biggest (only) online left show in town, and even a grassroots-online campaign like Bernie's still needed legacy media to reach a mass audience.
