Lmao this is the dumbest fucking take I've ever read
Btw here is "crotchety old" Mike Honda back in 2016 explaining who has always controlled "progressive" Ro Kahnna
Why is Mike Honda relevant to this conversation? Bc while Ro Kahnna was praising Thiel for doing what we all just saw reluctant "liberal" Bari Weiss repeat in 2025, Mike Honda was trying to warn us that Peter Thiel is ghost writing "progressive" policy and manipulating the press to ensure the window drifts even further to the right and locks us all into inescapable authoritarianism.
Conservatives so drunk on power they're literally just saying the quiet part out loud now without fear of consequence: Palantir CEO Says a Surveillance State Is Preferable to China Winning the AI Race. Oh and by the way, we're pretty clearly staging a coup to install our own Senate leader within the Democratic party.
You: Pssh, Mike Honda? He old.
Because being a good person does not make him fit for office. He's 15-20 years past what any reasonable retirement age should be.
That doesn't mean kahanna or whatever isn't a bought shit bag either.
Nobody is saying Mike Honda should run for office. I'm saying people should be asking why Kahnna is the singular face of the call allegedly coming from the entire democratic party for Schumer to step down.
Why would somebody who has been owned by Peter Thiel for his whole career, be going on every news outlet and speaking on behalf of what the all the Democrats allegedly want?
Why aren't any of the trustworthy Democrats actually jumping on the bandwagon when they're asked if they believe Schumer should step down now? Instead, when asked that question directly, AOC and Sanders have both said it's a much bigger problem than one person, and as Sanders asked who would actually be replacing him.
Presumably, given who is lobbying so hard to oust him, the person who finances him, has somebody in mind.
