What a fucking bigot this guy is.
Oh I dunno maybe it had more to do with DEFUND THE POLICE and SOCIALISM IS FINE than gay marriage, you cold heartless toolbag.
Oh, and they aren't "evangelical". They're Catholic.
There is literally no proof - on a data basis, polling basis, anecdotal basis - that Obama's "gay marriage drove Hispanics to vote Trump" claim is true. It's a bigoted claim, and it's a lie.
Remember when Trump appealed to Hispanics by highlighting gay marriage? Was it mentioned in one ad, one speech - anywhere?
Trump was, unlike Obama, the first president elected who embraced gay marriage. Obama's bigoted revisionism about Hispanics in 2020 is utter bullshit, totally baseless. Will anyone in corporate Democrat media acknowledge it?
Maybe the problem had more to do with suing nuns, defunding police, and arguing socialism is totally fine. There's immense polling data on that front. Find me one indication that Hispanics hating gay marriage drove any votes.
But hey, keep it up with the "Hispanics hate gays and need to use LatinX" rhetoric, I'm sure that will work.

A lot of people seem to think @AOC was a loser in this election. Strong disagree. The majority is further left, and ready for innovative leadership, with an 80 year old Speaker who has won her last election - and a base hungry for young, passionate leadership.
Additionally, @AOC can actually leverage cross-partisan unanimity against a White House that is going to be super corporatist, pro-Big Tech and pro-Wall Street. You think that won't play with the base?
The eagerness to write off the most talented social media activist politician in the country after an election where milquetoast Democrats underperformed dramatically is just ridiculous.

I've been thinking about this comment a lot in the context that it came mere hours before noted Trumpian Nate Silver said Fox and AP should retract the call.
And to be clear, Biden could still win Arizona. But the idea that North Carolina remains uncalled and Arizona is called is just laughable among any quality GOP pollster. That's not a depiction of reality.
Also: Alaska. Come. On.

So @TheAtlantic published a powerful, vivid story of a cop shooting to make the case for defunding the police.

The problem is: there's no record it ever happened.

The Federalist made Sunlight Requests to the St Louis PD and found nothing like what was described.
"The shooting of a young boy by a cop in a St. Louis Rec Center, even if it had happened 20 years ago, I feel like that would be in my mind somewhere," said the current mayoral spokesman, a former reporter during the period in question.

"The Appalachian range was the frontier, and the settlers who lived there were rough-hewn highlanders, predominantly Scots-Irish, who had little but the confidence that they and their God were the sole authors of their fate.
"This in turn imparted a zealous belief in their own liberty: they might be poor, but they were free as only frontiersmen were free. So when the call came to stand against the hated British in the American Revolution, these men and women answered
"with the enthusiasm of a people who loved freedom and a good fight — and weren’t too careful in distinguishing the two.

Sculpted by an Italian immigrant who helped build Grand Central Station and his son, given as a gift during the Great Depression as a symbol of the acceptance of Italian immigrants in Minnesota.
Carlo Brioschi came to America to pursue his dreams. He built a family, a business, and a legacy at a time when Italians were subjected to terrible treatment. Now his work is just another icon for the woke left to destroy.

Originally conceived in 1927 by the Italian Progressive Club of Duluth, the statue was dedicated in the midst of the Great Depression as a symbol that these Italian immigrants were now accepted as fully American.
