"Data from the last decade shows that 96% of murders in the U.S. linked political to extremism are committed by right-wing actors. Recent polling suggests, however, that more than half of 2020 Trump voters surveyed believe the opposite is true."

A vote for Jim Jordan is almost certainly a vote for a shutdown in like 30 days. That should probably be mentioned in some of the reporting on this shitshow.

It's really incredible (and I mean very predictable, but still nice to see) how the economic sanctions against are showing up as funding problems at every level. The , state parties, etc.

This is so enraging.

In May, they cut a deal on spending levels to keep the from pushing us into default, Republicans are now refusing to honor that deal and reporters rarely mention that key fact. And now they're telling us that voters want the parties to cut a deal. Fuckinng Hell.

A lot of savvy people insisted that only unhinged partisans could think the right would come after birth control because that’s a long-settled issue and it’d be wildly unpopular.

There will be no introspection from them. No mea culpas. And they’ll continue to normalize the GOP’s growing extremism.

Republicans continue to talk about seizing power through violence if they lose the next presidential election.

Huckabee isn't fringe. He was a state governor and a serious presidential candidate.

We need to take the threat of Republican extremism far more seriously.
