There is also a 5th category: Those who believe God has chosen him and is using him for a Godly purpose. (I find this one hard to accept, but in the deep south, there are actually fundamentalist churches preaching this message.)

4. The most common: People who feel that others do not afford them the respect to which they are entitled or that society is rewarding the wrong people for the wrong things

"One Word Describes Trump" www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv... I missed this on its first trip around, then saw it on the "most popular with readers" list for 2025. Recommended, despite the cheesy headline. Especially valuable if you have ever compared him to a mob boss. [Gift link]

Bari Weiss today:

2/ Here's Bari Weiss resume as posted on her website. Nowhere does it mention any experience doing actual news reporting.... but the her silly 'twitter files' effort gets a mention. Good grief. www.bariweiss.com

a reminder that the new head of CBS News proudly lists her role in the twitter files on her scant resume.

Never change, Bari Weiss

Weiss thought the Twitter Files was actual reporting which tells you all you need to know.

If you were Nick Fuentes coming up with a mean-spirited and bigoted “satirical” character to mock and belittle Jews or to discredit complaints about antisemitism you would wind up with something very like Eve Barlow, who said it was a “pogrom” to be called Eve Fartlow

This is a pretty misleading choice of quote to run from me after Mr. Brahman pursued me at length for something that would meet his ideological priors. I’ve asked him never to contact me again.

this is dumb as fuck!!!

They’re not gonna do shit. They’re gonna bitch for a bit and then shut the fuck and pay a little more in taxes and use their financial advisors to get out of most of it. Stop with these stupid fucking articles.

Fox host: When Trump first ran for office, he promised that we would be able to say Merry Christmas again. I think it’s safe to say he has accomplished that. We can say Merry Christmas again.

Theres a foolish impulse by legacy media that if & when they cover most stories, it’s simply time to move on. Trump’s ceaseless corruption, criminality, cognitive decline & compulsive, narcissistic hatred gets glossed over in the process. I for one won’t move on until he’s gone & held accountable.

On behalf of everyone in The Resistance movement following the massive EPSTEIN coverup, I want to wish all my fellow Radical Left Scum the happiest of holidays!- ♥️, Mar🐫

This is exactly what @sethcotlar.bsky.social & @badtoss.bsky.social were talking about yesterday. Christians, especially evangelicals, can assert their beliefs that their religious beliefs should be the law of the land, while also being treated as not “political,” in ways no other group is allowed.

The malignant narcissist can’t stand America trying to have a peaceful Christmas without him.

In early 70s, Martin Scorsese hung out with Rob Reiner and his cohorts from The Credibility Gap, plus The Ace Trucking Company, and he always cast comedians in his films, including Rob. He's made two movies about bad comics (King of Comedy, Raging Bull). A HUGE comedy nerd. (SCTV doc soon, please!)

I’m truly heartened by the array of people who got The Onion as a present this year. We got teens, we got dads, and this year we cracked the coveted Wacky Girlfriend demo. Thank you to everyone who gifted a paper today. We really are gonna have more print subscribers than the Washington Post, huh?

Him wishing Merry Christmas to the dead terrorists kind of makes it feel less special that he wished the same to us Radical Left Scum. I thought we had something.

Why do seagulls fly over the ocean? Because if they flew over the bay, they’d be bagels. #funny #dadjokes #comedy #nerd #gamer

Didn’t get everything you wanted for Christmas? These single-digit billionaires can increasingly relate.

Breaking | Trump orders airstrikes to aid Nigerian Christians despite Stephen Miller's frantic cries that Nigerian Christians are Black.

“Miss, do you agree with the sign?” “Absolutely not. My great niece was 4 months pregnant and her fetus had no skull. And because of men involving themselves in women’s bodies she was forced to deliver the fetus… there’s a reason God created medicine.”🔥 #ForcedBirthNation

It really would be a Christmas miracle if he died today.

Here’s the U.S. government being officially religious in a country with no official religion.

Neither the New York Times nor the Washington Post published stories about Trump writing 200 unhinged posts on Christmas Day

This is what it took to shame Kristi Noem into letting an Irish green card holder who bouncing $80 in 2 checks 10 years ago free after 5 months in detention: A veteran, Trump-voting spouse 9 US descendants Letter signed by 18 Senators 30 character witnesses www.star-telegram.com/news/nation-...

This is John Roberts' America.

What a psycho.

President Donald Trump gifted the world with nearly 200 Truth Social posts (and counting) on Christmas Day, where he amplified conspiracy theories about the 2020 election and called for a member of Congress to be deported.

DON’T. PRINT. LIES. IN. THE. NEWSPAPERS. Every damn day. It’s exhausting.

Jacob Wohl is the guy of “I overheard people talking in a hipster coffee shop about how much they love Donald Trump” fame. He’s apparently now making six figures securing pardons for fraudsters.

As the US bombs Nigeria, the most populous country in Africa - on Christmas, which half of Nigeria celebrates - realize there could be no diplomatic negotiations about this beforehand because the US pulled its ambassador out of Nigeria last week.

It’s a big Herrenvolk and you ain’t in it

As a Jew, it’s fun watching the administration post Christian nationalist messages while also saying they are doing everything they can to curb antisemitism.

There is nothing more morally bankrupt and intellectually dishonest than pretending that criticism of the state of Israel’s war crimes is actually just antisemitism and yet it’s the only move the dead-end defenders of genocide have left.

Whatever trio of spooks visited Stephen Miller last night better have brought something stronger than visions and moral suasion. Better if they all just gang up, swing their chains furiously and beat him like a rented mule.

Bullseye from 60 Minutes journalist Sharyn Alfonsi in response to Bari Weiss: “If the administration’s refusal to participate becomes a valid reason to spike a story, we have effectively handed them a ‘kill switch’ for any reporting they find inconvenient.” www.americaamerica.news/p/snapshot-r...
