Scott Ullman

Scott Pressler is out knocking doors, registering voters, and doing the work most Republicans don’t want to do. And Tucker Carlson’s big takeaway? He’s gay. Even more bizarre? Tucker’s commentary sounds an awful lot like Tim Miller’s over at The Bulwark. Funny how these supposed political opposites always seem to find common ground when it’s time to mock another Republican. I’m a Christian. I believe homosexuality is a sin. But I’m not going to pretend Scott Pressler is somehow hurting the Republican Party when he’s actually out there helping it win elections. And this speaks to a much bigger problem on the right. Tucker, Megyn Kelly, Candace Owens, and others have built quite the business model around convincing conservatives that both parties are equally terrible, everyone is corrupt, and nothing is worth fighting for. It’s a never-ending supply of outrage, cynicism, and demoralization disguised as being “based.” And unlike actually winning elections, it’s a business model that never runs out of material. I’ll criticize Trump and the GOP when they deserve it. I’ve been doing plenty of that lately. But criticizing a movement because you want it to succeed is very different from convincing people it’s hopeless. I’m not abandoning the fight just because Republicans got some things wrong. And I’m certainly not buying the despair these people are selling.

Soviet anti-Zionist antisemitism has outlasted & out-influenced Nazi antisemitism in the West. Nazi antisemitism was the most lethal, obviously. But it was also open, express, racial, and eliminationist. After 1945, it was mostly driven to the fringes. Soviet antisemitism was more insidious. It took the same ancient hatred, stripped out the explicit racial language, and repackaged it as progressive anti-colonialism and “anti-Zionism.” It became respectable in academia, the UN, and certain left-wing movements. That version is still peaking today in campus slogans, NGO reports, UN resolutions, and the mainstreaming of “Zionism = racism/apartheid/genocide.” Soviet antisemitism taught the world how to hate Jews while claiming the moral high ground. That has proven to be the more enduring poison.

There isn't a single reputable organisation specialising in canine training and behaviour that will tell you it's scientifically established that a dog can be trained to physically rape a human being. It's an utterly depraved suggestion, and Francesca Albanese should face serious legal consequences for believing it and suggesting that it is in any way true.

Don't you hate when your "main character" runs 6+ points behind the national Lean-Dem advantage?

⭕️ Vance’s X post will go down in history as one of the biggest political miscalculations by a sitting vice president. Vance thought Trump’s base was made up of idiots, like the morons who listen to his buddy Tucker Carlson. (Yes, that’s how little he thinks of MAGA.) He figured the MOU debacle would eventually be forgotten. But he just found out that Trump’s base is much smarter than he gives them credit for. They pointed straight to the MOU as the turning point when the war started going downhill. And now the whole thing has backfired on him. What Vance failed to understand is that a huge majority of Trump’s base still wants to finish the job against Iran. They haven't forgotten what happened, and they aren't buying the excuses. And now they see him for what he really is: a backstabber and a disloyal vice president.
