there are a lot of criticisms to be made of Walz's response to Metro Surge but he managed to avoid the staties *being more dangerous than ICE*. This is astoundingly bad politics.

What an unusual kind of war!

everyone assumed gas prices would be what caused ole trumpo to flame out but everything is so stupid and backwards that it was actually losing a sign on the kennedy center and bret michaels pulling out of a concert

Dementia + malignant narcissism is a hell of a drug. Also, this should color your view of how likely he is to successfully execute anything requiring even minimal coherence or competence, such as getting the Strait of Hormuz open. And make you notice the serious risk of further dumb catastrophes.

I think part of this is that too many people, both his foes and allies, misunderstood the tattoo story for being facially about anti-Semitism, when it was more early evidence of his plastic relationship to the truth.

This rules. Absolutely the funniest possible outcome. The president of the United States filling in as the headliner of a concert because Milli Vanilli canceled.

See y’all tomorrow!

White guys were trustworthy until Fetterman ruined it for us 😞

Trump's TruthSocial page is a carbon monoxide asphyxiation simulator

Fun to envision thousands of ICE agents who have full on 'Nam PTSD flashbacks when they smell cheesy potato hotdish

It's not much comfort when we're only halfway through the term, but Peepaw is increasingly enshrouded in Loser Stench (in addition to the widely-reported literal stench)

We've regressed so far in this direction that people will tell you with a straight face that protestors even blocking a street is ViOlEnCe

Trump is a terrible negotiator because he doesn't understand that negotiation is problem-solving, not bullying. Good negotiators search for ways to meet the needs of both sides. They don't just posture and make demands.

I've been thinking about this: we at the very least need an independent Attorney General. States have those; cities and counties have comptrollers. The federal government needs independent oversight, with teeth. This is a more fleshed-out model.

You hate to see such a nice lady humiliate herself like that.

Good enough!

Their new girlfriend is women

Say what you will about substitutionary atonement, it generally makes for better music than the competing theories

i genuinely believe people who came to america no matter illegally or not, being antagonized by half the country with threat of ICE and deportation, deserve to be here far more than people who just happened to be born in america

The projection levels around James Talarico are absolutely off the charts.

I ain’t reading all that. I’m happy for you though, or sorry that happened

Breaking news: The Pentagon is moving to recruit hundreds of troops to appear as spectators at President Trump’s UFC cage-fighting event on the White House lawn, and requiring those who attend to pay their own way and meet height and weight requirements.

"so much for the tolerant left!" Stephen be happy you're just getting called ugly, and aren't yet being sent to a labor camp on a guano atoll no one's thought about since 1897

subtle.

There are cascading crises of all kinds to be dealt with post-Trump, but building a robust and generous immigration infrastructure in preparation for intensifying climate migration is essential

This seems like an unavoidable conclusion for anyone who's remotely paid attention.

This has been his wildly successful M.O. for ten years and he's finally found a foe that won't be poasted into submission

Any state that the Trump regime has turned its sights on forfeits its right to self-determination.

john cornyn caucus with the democrats or shut up

tl;dr:

So is this the worst or second-worst disgrace Milli Vanilli has brought upon themselves

Skimming through my alma mater's alumni magazine, it's sad to recognize that nowadays anyone who's been appointed to any federal post must be evil

damn even bret michaels wants nothing to do with this

I'd start a zeppelin passenger line.

the problem with the shittiest billionaires getting so directly involved in space is how much it turns off people who just want to be excited by space

Btw one aspect of the Obama admin I really really could not stand was the space policy, like wanting to cancel SLS in favor of commercial carriers

Whether it's Kamala Harris spending $300 of her own money on Le Creuset cookware enameled with porcelain or Donald Trump spending $100 million of taxpayer money on shrines to himself plated with gold, both candidates made some puzzling expenditures.

I hope other religious bodies come out with some thoughtful studies on AI, because there is seemingly not a nuanced position to be found among UM clergy at the moment, and I don't think that's healthy

This lady don't even know what "Allahu akbar" means

I know everybody wants people to be flaming Chicks about it but I’m gonna accept this from Martina. In country music speak this is basically Malcolm X “the chickens coming home to roost”.

Let freedom riiiiing, let the white dove siiiiing 🇺🇸 🦅 🎆

Yeah, all the people who would have been flying to New York will fly to Wichita instead, same difference

This ties very well into my “participation trophies are good, actually” take. But it’s more than that. Participation isn’t just good and worth rewarding, it’s maybe the most important thing IMO. A culture obsessed with victory neglects the transformative power of trying.

ST. PETER: as I go willingly to my reward i ask only that i be crucified upside down, as I do not deserve to be executed in the same manner as my Lord Christ. SOME LOW-LEVEL ROMAN FUNCTIONARY: *rubbing his brow* wow it really is always fucking something with you people, isn't it.

If we're all gonna get a hot take in on this eventually, mine is that I think it's probably good that Democrats have something to put next to DOGE and say "so who actually made government more efficient?"

Pharmacist Grant Harting has built a following of millions on social media by trying extremely sketchy drugs...

If you zoom in real close you can see JD Vance burning a couch and some old carpet in the lawn

The fact that he's STILL talking about this suggests they're actually thinking about it. Sure, give it a try, why not!

A President ordering the Justice Department to criminally investigate a woman who won a sexual assault lawsuit against him makes Watergate look like an unpaid parking ticket.
