They Did Nazi It Coming: Antisemites Furious as Meme Coin Scheme Unravels
The newletter starts with this..
Right-wing media mostly ignored Trump’s parade flop on Saturday, operating under their usual rule that if you don’t have anything nice to say about Trump, don’t say anything at all. Even if it had gone better, though, the parade fell into an awkward mushiness in a very competitive right-wing media market. Trump couldn’t quite come out and say the parade was just about him, so his media lapdogs couldn’t make it into an explicitly MAGA thing. And when you’re competing with ICE raid bloodlust or conspiracy theories about the Minnesota assassination, some old tanks and guys in Revolutionary War uniforms just can’t compete.
One more thing: last weekend’s parade marked the kickoff of America250, the confusingly years-long birthday party for America. As a millennial who wasn’t around for the bicentennial and (god willing) will be too old to party by the tricentennial, I’ve looked forward to America’s 250th birthday for years. Now both Mother Jones and the Atlantic have stories saying that, yes, Trump is going to ruin it. What am I going to do with all these Uncle Sam hats?
