I’ve seen what’s happened around here the last month, & who’s been getting in the faces of ICE/Border Parol & screaming so hard that they’re showering those masks of cowardice w the spittle of righteousness. So I don’t want see that condescending “wine mom” shit ever again

TRUMP: And for the sharp narrow ledge around the extremely deep bathtub? What do you think we should use for that? SLIP-AND-FALL ATTORNEY PRETENDING TO BE AN INTERIOR DESIGNER: Oh marble for sure man

We all know Tubin doesn't use an auto pen15.

Scolding people for being shocked is bad. "You don't pay as much attention to the world as I do" isn't great for broadening a coalition. Also, "all bad stuff is the same" is wrong. Refusal to gate-keep Nazis from a major party *is* new. And it's valuable to remain shocked by things you can explain.

Robby Soave wants to hear from Nazis because maybe they have some good points and, besides, if we don’t hear from them isn’t that just as bad as being a Nazi?

the one-two punch for Usha Vance of your husband making a public statement that he hopes you renounce your faith and then showing off his new widowed side piece is crazy work

Get that money boyeeeee!

Begun, the Coffee Wars have.

I like her content

Is it good that the President of the United States arbitrarily levies or lifts tariffs (which he has no authority to do), makes or breaks “trade deals” almost entirely based on who was literally the last person he spoke to on a given day and did they sufficiently flatter or rile him up?

It’s the incredibly smug self-assuredness of his absurd framing that does it for me. When he writes amazing schlock like this does he do a little [hmmph] head shake because he’s such a clever little boy?

It's a way to raise the salience of tear-gassing kids, which people do not like. Viral videos of ICE and CBP brutalizing people are getting increasingly common and driving down this administration's poll numbers. Democrats can point out that we aren't that.

i guess Matty's idea is that we let the admin set their view of immigration with videos like this

Yeah, they big fuckin.

When I worked in WaPo Opinions in 2017-2018, senior editors specifically told junior editors not to factcheck Marc Thiessen and other MAGA columnists, otherwise they wouldn’t be able to publish anything by them at all, and “we need them for intellectual diversity.”

It’s very telling that opening your publication to MAGA “thought” requires a massive downgrade in quality control.

When we were deployed, some Afghans risked their lives to help us. Now Trump wants to send them out to be killed by the Taliban. It’s a disgrace, a betrayal, and a decision that endangers future US troops.

In 2029, treat anyone who worked for DHS during this term as you would a German male in 1945 with a blood group tattoo on his left arm.

Did Heinz Guderian write this?

The reason she’s upset now but not at any point prior over the past decade - a time that she spent working tirelessly to further the worldview espoused by Heritage - is because now it’s people she’s knows personally rebuking her, personally.

Tremendously dishonest characterization but at least it gets Tara her clicks.

For the record I never had a Nazi phase.

people talking about their "nazi phase" is so weird to me because i've been a normie lib all my life outside of when i had like a six month phase in 2014 where i entertained antiwoke libertarian ideas because of youtube and then halfway through a video i was like "wait this is all stupid as shit"

I think Usha might actually divorce him.

What if you *did* think the leopards would eat your face? What then, huh? What of it?

Oh.

What the problem is, Bethany?

LOLOLOLOLOL

Absolutely convinced by now that if Congress had thrown out the election results in 2020 nobody would have cared within three months.

Platner is paying a lot of consulting firms, including an influencer collaboration company so you know I have thoughts on many of his odder "supporters" on-line

brad lander caught this shit when he got dragged off and locked up by ice for standing between a family and the goon squad a candidate is trying to win your vote *by doing good things* and your galaxy brain take is to *punish* them for it? what the hell are we even doing?

Endorse. At the point where she’s put her body on the line and is being personally targeted by the regime, she’s walked the walk more than sufficiently to deserve respect and to be taken seriously.

If a confused and dementia-addled Joe Biden had promised a foreign country we’d let them build nuclear submarines in a shipyard that hadn’t been active for three decades, Jake Tapper would’ve actually sold a couple books.

What if a major political figure was so incredibly full of shit for so long you genuinely wouldn’t be able to tell if he started succumbing to dementia?

Blake Treinen's stats since he wrote Charlie Kirk on his hat: 3.0 IP, 5 Runs, 9.00 ERA, 0 Ks, 1.667 WHIP, and 3 LOSSES

If I was Merrick Garland’s personal apologist I’d probably have given up a long time ago. Gotta respect that level of sticktoitiveness.

Maybe the journalism industry evolving into a sinecure for the precocious children of wealthy elites is not great.

you’d think people would learn from history about “the importance of not fucking up one really big thing, because if you do so, all the other things you did that you’d like to be remembered for will crumble to ash and irrelevance,” but so it goes

Garland did improperly politicize the Trump investigations and prosecutions, he just did it in Trump's favor.

this guy is a trojan horse, sinema redux and if you don’t see it i don’t know what to say

Merrick Garland didn’t want Trump successfully prosecuted while he was AG and so he made sure the investigations and prosecutions were conducted as slowly as possible.

Now we know why Trump never includes Garland on the list of people who’ve wronged him.

Whoa whoa whoa I’m sure @emptywheel.bsky.social has a perfectly good explanation for this if you just look at the docket and Lisa Monaco’s calendar.

Isn’t he supposed to be a Catholic?

Doesn’t necessarily mean elected President.

It's incredibly normal to feel uncomfortable being near people who are different from you. And your job as a human being is to feel a little ashamed of that, grow the fuck up, and get over it.
