My hot take is that people are actually nostalgic for the Obama economy and mistakenly associate Trump with since his cabinet prevented him from screwing it up the first time

Kinda wild that these people are just in charge of things isn’t it

gotta say, the more you take a step back and look at it, the more it reminds me of the forces that led to the youth revolt of the 60s. a generation of morally bankrupt and complacent parents who raised their kids to believe in ideals they themselves did not care about are shocked that their kids do

I'm worried that the broader public isn't really understanding the Epstein Files. The problem isn't that everyone in the files is a secret pedophile, it's that all the people are corresponding with him because they *don't care that he's a pedophile*. It's a story of elite impunity.

The Utah Historical Society just produced a new, excellent map of "The Peoples of North America in 1776." Great resource for anyone teaching, writing, presenting about Native peoples as part of their 250th work. america250.utah.gov/power-of-pla...

Such a 2015 gamergate ass complaint from Murray lol

Forgive me, Jesus, because I genuinely deeply enjoy how perpetually unhappy and desolate these losers are.

Lmfao its the K-Hive all over again

This shit is so gross. Saying trauma and harm and accountability and solidarity to disguise the fact that you think warning people that ICE is here with a whistle is cringe lib shit

I hadn’t known this. Two men who were accused of sexual abuse on the Shitty Media Men document that I created back in 2017 reached out to Michael Wolff for help as they looked to sue me, and Wolf forwarded their concerns to Jeffrey Epstein. Epstein offered to help. www.jmail.world/thread/EFTA0...

I think this is the essential quality that made CBP/BP and ICE so easily convertible into fascist squadristi www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

The Ones Who Walk Away From The Gene Pool

Aragorn in real life is a Knight Commander of the Knights of Malta and serves on the board of several multinational aid NGOs

This guy is pathologically incapable of handling being made fun of by a Black guy in public.

i'm going to simmer that rotten little weasel with mirepoix, red wine and waxy potatoes

I know that Illinois hasn’t voted for a Republican for president since ‘88 but in the postwar era Illinois (at least looking at governors) went from a purple state to 7 straight GOP governor election wins. The Trump era has made the state pretty blue

Shock therapy in the former USSR, "the end of welfare as we know it" in the US, and Thatcherism-Blairism in the UK were the looting of flawed but important welfare systems in favor of public-private criminal partnerships.

They only what

Having analyzed this frame by frame like the Zapruder film my verdict is the president did indeed have an Unidentified Ass Event at 0:34

The President trusted a fart and it betrayed him JUST LIKE HE BETRAYED THE AMERICAN PEOPLE RT AND FOLLOW IF YOU AGREE

There are 2006s everywhere for those with eyes to see

We prayed for the souls of Renee and Alex today at mass so that was nice

Trump tried to go around him and failed, called chuck up asking to be bailed out on what is supposed his strongest issue, and Schumer rubbed it in his face

Biden's FBI was trying to build cases right up until the end of his term, victims told Tara Palmeri that they were being invited in to look at photos and everything stopped when Trump came into office.

I think it had to do with the timeline of Maxwel’s appeal

I believe in the Great Texas Dummymander of 2026

“Notorious pedophile Jeffrey Epstein played a role in convincing Bobby Kotick to embrace loot boxes, essentially gambling for children” what is this sentence, what is this world

Insane flight delays at O'Hare today mean my wife is missing her flight to Barcelona and having to stay in Philly overnight

disturbingly plausible

I suppose "here, he's heading off into the interior of the vast continent. with 5,000 kilometers ahead of him, he's heading towards certain death" gets at the utter pointlessness of conservative viciousness

ok this is the second time I'm seen an apparent reference to that Werner Herzog clip about the insane penguin. what the fuck is going on over there

You can tell this moment is driving people insane by proxy of mostly not doing anything beyond consuming the horrors and then screaming about it at other people online versus actually doing something. You get serious about the latter and former just isn’t tenable, not at length.

I have an original framed copy of the last issue of The Daily Citizen from Vicksburg on July 2, 1863. Where should I donate it to?

maybe 2% of this place is even aware any of this happened, in part because they've outsourced their senate knowledge to a former social media intern for Tina Smith who now lives in Australia

Can't wait for the hundreds of regional jets to be grounded. And the A220s?? I'm sure United, Delta, and America are super excited for this. More likely they'll apply it only to bizav if they bother to follow through. But what an ass. #avgeek

the bit the article is quoting is in response to a reporter *specifically* asking him about a ban on deporting citizens, and his response clearly comes from incredulity that that’s even a question

no fan of jeffries, but holy shit is this article misleading. in the press briefing he calls for "a prohibition that DHS cannot *detain* or deport American citizens", and his focus throughout the briefing is on the detainment part

This is quite bad but I think it is very important to realize this is them lashing out because they are weak and desperate, this isn’t a show of strength or confidence

It's a good thing all the conservative Christians from my childhood abandoned their beliefs or else they'd be freaking out about the antichrist. Unfortunately i haven't so it's left to me to be like. What the hell.

She got frozen out of Venezuela stuff and realized she had to step her game up if she wanted to keep her job

Days after Secretary Noem took office, she purported to "vacate" decisions by Secretary Mayorkas to extend TPS for Venezuela and Haiti — even though the law says repeatedly that TPS, once granted, lasts until it expires. The 9th Circuit says she had no authority to do that.

Hello Donald this is your political strategist speaking. I am advising you today to please keep saying this stuff

the feds saying theyll end their campaign of terror against an american city if their demands are met is the biggest domestic scandal of my lifetime

I think this significantly downplays the importance of a judicial warrant requirement, given how badly ICE and CBP have nuked their relationships with the district courts.
