I am really looking forward to April, when the US starts picking a fight with everyone else. At the very least it will spread it thinner. Right now, Trump is shit-posting a major trade policy change about every 72 hours.
The House Continuing Resolution to fund the US government until September - which the GOP is blasting the Democrats over because they say it is âneutralâ - has this clause:
This essentially surrenders Congressional authority over tariffs for the rest of 2025. It is not âneutralâ at all, it is an act of submission.
the cunt is a sore loser. Elbows up.
In clearly staking out a claim on one side of these fights, the Democrats have become associated with instances of overreach in the cultural realm as well, whether fairly or not. Take the rapid shifts in language that have produced new terms that few people ever use and many find bizarre or even offensive, such as âuterus-haver,â âpregnant person,â âbirthing person,â âmenstruating person,â âindividual with a cervix,â or even âinseminated personâ in lieu of âwoman.â Or âchest-feedingâ over âbreastfeeding.â Or âsex âassignedâ at birth.â
Many Democrats likely donât use these terms themselves, if theyâve even heard of them, and probably hold fairly normie views about sex and gender. Nonetheless, their association with groups and people who do use them, combined with their reluctance to update their priors in the face of new scientific research, has left them out of step with the majority of Americans on these issues.
Whether Democrats were negatively polarized by Republicans, misunderstood or ignored what the science said, naively followed the guidance of activist groupsâor some combination of the threeâthey have gotten way out ahead of the public. Indeed, while Americans today tend to be roughly evenly divided on most issues, usually along partisan lines, this isnât one of them.
Extensive polling has found that sizable majorities of American believe, among other things, that transgender women should not be allowed to compete in womenâs sports at any level; kids should not be taught lessons on âgender identityâ until at least middle school, if not high school; and medical interventions such as puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones should not be accessible to minors. Among the most striking findings of late was a New York Times /Ipsos poll showing that the public opposed the participation of trans women in womenâs sports by a lopsided margin of 79 percent to 18 percent, with even Democrats agreeing by a more than two-to-one margin.
Whatâs more: a recent survey from Pew Research found the public has shifted further away from the Democratic Partyâs positions on these questions in recent years. This even includes some issues where a healthy majority continues to support the pro-trans positions, including protecting transgender people from discrimination in jobs, housing, and public spaces (56 percent) and allowing them to serve in the military (58 percent). Both of these figures have fallen from their past standing. Americans do also support increased access to counseling services for gender-distressed youth.
weâll take Point Roberts, the rest they have already ruined and can fucking keep. Thanks but no thanks itâs full of Americans.

Apparently, protests at Tesla dealerships are now domestic terrorism.
Iâm pretty sure promotion of a private company in the White House is illegal?
