The New York Post's editorial page says Republicans must save the party from young wannabe edgelords. It is not wrong about the edgelords... the record on them is genuinely vile. But the party is looking down at a few thousand kids with podcasts while $433 million in billionaire money moves through the midterms above its head, four dollars in five of it Republican.
Rep. Nancy Mace's resolution would dissolve the Congressional Black Caucus, the Congressional Hispanic Caucus and the Congressional Asian Pacific American Caucus, which she calls "federally sanctioned segregation." Her own press release also names more than a dozen congressional staff associations from both parties, including the Greek American and Italian American ones, whose members are white.
The Supreme Court cleared the way in June. On Monday about 7,000 Haitians in Indiana lost the legal right to work. Every one of them had the paperwork. That was never the part that mattered.

The crosses were a roadside protest memorial from 2020, not a burial site. A conspiracy theory born in postwar neo-Nazi circles was screened in the Oval Office, by the President, to…
Hours after taking the oath, Trump signed Proclamation 10887: fourteen commutations by name, a "full, complete and unconditional pardon" for roughly 1,500 others, and orders to dismiss every pending January 6 case with prejudice. The flag carrier, the "Camp Auschwitz" sweatshirt, the man who thought Hitler "should have finished the job," the seditious-conspiracy chairman serving 22 years... all of it, erased in one signature on night one.
