I will say beyond the JD Vance of it all, just reading those texts, it's pretty scary.

My first reaction was not just like outrage, I can't believe these people.

It's like, oh fuck, this is the future of the Republican Party?

Like these people are in positions of authority.

And that's one group chat of 12 people.

And I think we have seen as you get younger in MAGA world these days,

then you're actually more extreme, not less extreme.

And the idea that we had, you know, well before 2024 and maybe before 2020, that as the younger generations grew up, then maybe it was the boomers who Trump was getting in 2016.

And I guess that's true.

And that, you know, as the younger generations come of age and vote more, then maybe MAGA will sort of disappear.

But this is like a, these kids are making like Trump look moderate, right?

Kids, not kids.

And it's also incredible how just bold and brazen they are.

This is not like someone who got caught on a private chat with their friends and they said some awful, horrendous, offensive things on a small chat.

This is like 12 people who were colleagues, essentially.

These are people that you work with.

that really you probably don't know super well because they're all from – they're Republican leaders from different states.

The fucking guy in the Capitol Hill office, in the House office that has the fucking swastika behind him,

What?

That's on video?
