Tonight's prob an important night to document the posts coming out on the far-right.

Posobiec's having a normal one.

Jack's got em pretty riled up over on Telegram.

Meanwhile, Elijah Schaffer is angry that that tyranny interrupted his pool time.

Hey Elijah. White Boy Summer was LAST year.

Gorka is being his usual hyperbolic sycophantic self.

Charlie Kirk pulls out some ominous phrases. Bernie Kerik takes the warnings up a notch. Kimberly Guifoyle chimes in and some rando follower gets all chatty about civil war.

Was there a memo to use the word Regime with a capital R? Or was this already a thing?

There are plenty of MAGA influencers signaling similar outrage to the Boss tonight.

I'm sure some of it is manufactured, some of it is heartfelt.

It trickles down. Here's the Prez of the PDX Proud Boys saying he's ready to throw down.

Keep in mind he's a blowhard.

Jeez, Steve.

Then there's the insultingly absurd, or outright racist and bigoted takes on the raid of Mar-a-Lago.

Content warning on all of this.

This sequence of tweets kind of gives you the spectrum of responses on the far-right: from angry MAGA boomer pundit to dark authoritarianism.

I think at the grassroots level the rage seems authentic. Hard to tell if that coalesces into anything.

But this is a big loyalty test for the MAGA political chattering class. The chest thumping is fealty.

My concern is that it notches up the threat of stochastic violence.
