We’ve gone from “it is hard to believe he is alive, but is now recovering in the hospital” to “the lesbians were mean to him”

Folks should keep in mind that if Peltola wins, she'll basically be a lot like Joe Manchin. IE: very conservative on guns and immigration but populist on the economy, taxes and health care. But one difference from Manchin is she'll be a big supporter of abortion rights.

This quote man, just totally meaningless nothing

The NYT interview, and all the hype they've been trying to do for it, would be absolutely humiliating for any publication that was run by people with self-respect

Move Alaska to toss-up.

BARTIROMO: A lot of people are saying this Jerome Powell investigation is political SEN. ROGER MARSHALL: I think this is the president almost trolling here. We got bigger issues to go after than this one though.

maybe I'm getting ahead of myself here, but this feels a little like ... jumping in front of traffic to impress your boss? I dunno, I just get the feeling that all the hacks throwing themselves into this are not thinking where this case could go. you *probably* don't want to be anywhere near it!

Going out and stumping for this is also a loyalty test and Navarro understands that

lmaooo

"China has never invaded any other country its history" is probably one of the most stupid, uneducated nonsense I have ever heard, name me one dynastic transition that was peaceful, or ask the Vietnamese, the Koreans what they think of "peaceful China".

Before reading the captioned post I thought maybe they were referencing China post WW2, but *2000 years*?? Vietnam alone has like a thousand year history of China trying to conquer them. Their national history museum is mostly "& then China tried to invade us again." Tankies are so fucking stupid.

Not sure I'm sold on the theology of this but signing that particular dotted line is as obvious a deal with the Adversary as I think you can possibly make. The Old Testament says that you must not profit by the blood of your neighbor; the New Testament commands that we love our neighbor. Not hard!

It’s all about access.

THIS

Sky Marchini was harassed off this website this week for saying this exact thing would happen.

How embarrassing

Why is an agent's cell phone video even out on the internet?

If we are splitting hairs, I can think of someone besides Good whose actions led to her death …

Well that one way to get rid of Ian miles cheong

Friday: EU finalizes Cono Sur trade deal. Monday: EU finalizes deal with China. I wonder if Art of the Deal guy will notice he's the only one who can't make a deal?

I realize that every word that comes out of his mouth is outrageous in one way or another but unambiguously framing execution as a legitimate response to disrespect is still noteworthy

It blows me away that there are still people out there with functioning brains who don’t take his deranged threats seriously. Maybe they will figure this all out in 3 more years.

a reminder, again, that AltNPS is a grifter account run by people who have no affiliation with the National Park Service and indeed who never did have any affiliation with the National Park Service. They have no sources, they have no information, they are purely there to scam you.

holy fuck it’s real

The really messy thing going on rn is that DJT is unhealthy, likely on a cocktail of uppers and corticosteroids (that are probably mauling his kidneys), and in the middle of one long manic dementia episode. Putting an 80 year old in a pressure cooker like this was.. a decision.

TRUMP: WORKING WELL WITH VENEZUELA'S LEADERSHIP, IT'S WORKING OUT WELL WHITE HOUSE: I DIDN'T LIKE EXXON'S RESPONSE WHITE HOUSE: MIGHT KEEP EXXON OUT Exxon:

There is always an XKCD

Thanks again for making sure Trump was beyond the reach of the legal system, John Roberts. I'm sure that imaginary line you drew around the Fed to say "pretty please dont fuck with the money" will hold up fine.

Sarah McBride working her ass off as a one woman trans rights protection squad with 0 credit or support from people who say they care about that.

tell me you don't actually know anything about Chamberlain without saying you don't actually know anything about Chamberlain, etc.

I have a B.A. in History and none of this is accurate.

Chamberlain was a prime minister. He had, you know, *power*.

"WHERE ARE THE DEMOCRATS???....(that I voted out a year prior)"

Also: the sentiment that law enforcement should not be in a position where they have to endure disrespect is craven, servile, and profoundly un-American. Saying is a relatively rare burst of truth from Trump,. People who agree show their ass as born bootlickers.

It's weird how people insisted for *years* that Dems would throw trans people under the bus for political expediency, and then this kind of thing keeps happening.

I will die with hatred in my heart for the elites of this era and how much their cravenness has damaged the world

Sympathies with the Epic PR team

Wanda Sykes thanks Ricky Gervais for not being there because it means she can accept the award on his behalf... and he's gonna thank God and the trans community (he won, she did) #GoldenGlobes

This is the sort of statement that was expected from every university president and law firm partner over the last year. That those statements weren’t made played a huge part in where we are now and people will remember.

[sombrely, with tears in eyes] "truly the people of Iran embody the great spirit of Flumpo The Fart Wizard" - author of Flumpo The Fart Wizard

pretty stark difference between this and bill cassidy's objections to RFK. that difference is Tillis is saying specifically what action he is going to take.

Lmao. He's just doing everything all at once. Kinda wonder if he got some bad health news or something

i think powell's response here is a demonstration of the folly of the idea that democratic accountability requires presidential control. what if the president is not acting in the public interest? you want independent agencies to be able to push back and pursue their *congressional mandate*

Can you people leave Anne Frank alone FFS

Important video. These guys are rattled. They can't go anywhere, they can't get anything done. They killed someone and it just got worse. They don't have any other intellectual or law-enforcement tools. They don't know what to do.

Tillis is spot on. The Senate can't confirm a Trump toady to succeed Powell at the Fed. The rest of the game is now out in the open, and it doesn't end well.

Tillis sucks but this is significant. No Fed nominee can move through Senate Banking without him and Miran’s term ends at the end of this month.

will someone, anyone, ask him "what law"

“Sometimes public service requires standing firm in the face of threats, which is what this unambiguously is” How did the banker dude get here before the leaders of every self-mythologizing media organization or even Congress
