Doug Wilson preaches holy war, iron discipline, and male dominance. And one of his disciples runs the Pentagon and might face an impeachment vote later this week. motherjones.com/politics/202…

The Talarico campaign generated over 3 billion organic views online.
We did it by running a social media program that was driven by storytelling and designed for vertical video.
This is the new playbook.

This election was a political revolution repudiating Trump & Trumpism—and a cultural-social revolution against the MAGA worldview that only white Christian conservatives are the true Americans.

Let's call this the Trump hangover election.
It’s as if American voters, after a long night out, woke up and regretted the choices they made the previous evening. And they said no to all the BS, chaos, hate, cruelty, war, lies, and economic folly of Trump 2.0. Read my take on this historic wipe-out.

NEW: WH reversed its promise to release docs related to reviewing frontier AI models. Congress, the public & press *still* don't know how the gov is wielding its regulatory power over tech that could disrupt our economy, nat. security, & the lives of all Americans.

We are not inviting Putin to Kyiv. They came to us without an invitation in 2022. But that’s not why there’s no point in inviting Putin to Kyiv. It’s because he won’t come. The same goes for inviting me to Moscow. What Russia is doing is destructive. It’s simply spitting in the face of the whole world that wants this war to end. That’s why no one will support going to Moscow.
As for a phone call, Russia will use it as an excuse to avoid any further meetings. And we understand this game. It leads nowhere. It would just be a very formal, dry phone conversation where I would once again have to listen to a history lecture from the leader of the Russian Federation, rather than hear about real steps to actually end the war.
If we want to end the war, we have to meet and take the first step: a ceasefire.
From answers to journalists’ questions in Berlin.

The most infamous political advertisement of the 2026 election cycle was first scooped by a quirky blogger who recently went to jail for sending a lawmaker what you might call a Shrext—a sexually explicit illustration of Shrek. motherjones.com/politics/202…

You should be paying attention to Alabama.
Why? A congressional seat in this deeply red state, gerrymandered to essentially guarantee Republican control, might actually stay blue.

NYT's Bret Stephens whines that Democrats know "Smotrich and Ben-Gvir" but not "the interior minister of Japan."
Their "obsession" with Israel drives him "crazy."
(Being politically informed on Israel is now anti-Semitic.)

So Hegseth is blaming the Ukrainians and saying Elon made the decision to downgrade Ukraine’s Starlink service? Isn’t that completely different from Rubio’s explanation that it was a technical glitch? Days into this scandal and they can’t seem to get their stories straight.

"A town got hit or whatever."
Anhelina, a one-year-old, was killed in her stroller by a Russian Shahed yesterday in Kharkiv. Her mother, Inna Mariukhna, was also killed.
