"Under Brazilian federal law, all legislators have immunity...To run for President, Bolsonaro decided not to run for his Senate seat. Now, after losing the Presidential election, he no longer has legislative immunity when his Senate term expires in January 2027." Very Special Episode of no amnesty

Flávio Bolsonaro had his passport confiscated by the Brazilian fed police as his brother Eduardo told him to flee to the US. He is tied to paramilitary gangs, is being investigated & lost his legislative immunity when he left the Senate to run for president. paydayreport.com/brazilian-fe...

has anybody evaluated the occam’s razor possibility that he’s just a fascist operative/wrecker?

A helpfully clear exchange here Hasan: "So your argument is that [Minnesota ICE protesters] should stay at home because immigration is a salient issue for Donald Trump. Opposing ICE is only going to help Trump. Wait until we win the election in 2028." Yglesias: "Yes that is what I would have said"

😳 WOMAN REPORTER: Do sexual abuse allegations mean nothing to you, sir? TRUMP: Wait. Wait! Wait wait wait. Slow down. Who are you with? REPORTER: NBC, sir. But they are very serious sex abuse allegations TRUMP: Quiet! Isn't she a fresh person? You're a horrible little reporter, aren't you?

you could easily be like “this guy made fun of gold star families 10 years ago, he has called soldiers suckers and losers, he’s done more to denigrate and destroy the VA’s capacity to help veterans than any president ever.” i am not holding my breath!

that “good times create weak men” meme really applies to the american right rn. you’ve been playing the washington generals so long that you have no idea how to compete against actual basketball players. this messaging ain’t gonna cut it in 2026, champ! everyone is too broke for this weak shit!

Most billionaire wealth isn't in yachts or jewelry — that's just a few percent of it. Most is productive business capital: companies that employ people, build things, and fund research. Tax that wealth and you're taxing the businesses that employ us all. Cato's Adam Michel explains.

vance is one of the most unserious politicians alive. what is his constituency? no fascist wants half-measures, and no normal person wants fascism in any way shape or form. i’m intrigued to watch the development/devolution of his grift in the coming years

wow -- a sister asks Vance how as a person of faith he can justify ICE's brutality. Vance responds by saying "we're trying to strike the right balance ... sometimes you have people that make mistakes"

the type of pandering he tries to do requires ruthless message discipline, but he never got over the Third Way-style fear of his audience. and you can see the pathetic, incoherent results

we have spent way too long humoring and accommodating (or, god forbid, listening to) this obtuse quant horseshit when what we really need is a retvrn to nonstop swirlies

I don't think $30k is a life-changing amount of money. Median American born in 1980 will have $2m in income in their lifetime. It's a 1% increase in earnings.

while i confess that it’s cool to make a completely hollow stock car body do a barrel roll using compressed air, i’m having a hard time figuring out what it has to do with a flagging car company mainly known for lying about what its cars can do
