You’ll never convince me otherwise that those stupid memes of his head are absolutely breaking him. He’s terminally online and it’s getting worse.

Trump, MAGA, GOP, a lot of media, corporate America, and even some Dems treated the 2024 election like a binding referendum on the culture. Treat Charlie Kirk as nationally beloved, and censorship as demanded by The People. As @gregsargent.bsky.social writes, the Kimmel affair showed the opposite.

Always remember you can catch a lot of awesome and local bands in your area that aren't owned by labels yet and often will charge very little for a live show and could use your support more

IMO there are three distinct scenarios here: 1. The markings are legitimate and the shooter was a really, really, really bad shot 2. They are fake but are confident that the shooters online presence confirms their narrative, or has no presence at all.

holy shit a cure for HIV at $40 per patient

JFC. DFW Fox affiliate is reporting that the victims were detainees

DALLAS (AP) - 3 people shot at immigration office in Dallas and the shooter is dead from a self-inflicted gunshot wound, official says. @apnews.com

Multiple people have been shot at the Dallas ICE field office, ABC reports

If there is any true indicator that the weaponization of the Kirk outrage has failed, them trying to turn the UN escalator into a thing is it.

I continue to believe that all of these shadow docket decisions are designed to give Trump temporary leeway is reshaping the federal government, but will eventually rule against him after the damage is done to prevent a future democratic administration from reversing Trump’s actions

Yea, those cancellations scared the shit out of them. Disney adults are the vanguard of the revolution.

Attempting to install one party rule while falling ass backwards into a recession should be interesting, at least.

It was only a few months ago when Milei was one of the stars of CPAC, with his economy as an example of the triumph of Anarcho-capitalism

Half of these people will collapse the even the slightest pushback. Also lol at Rob Schneider

Missed left?? Because of woke???

i think"getting them to stay home" is an easier and more feasible objective than "getting them to change their minds"

They can't drag this Kirk stuff out that much longer and then one way or another something's gotta give. I really think we're reaching a breaking point

Considering his fumbles so far I wouldn’t hold my breath.

"Well, well, well, look who's back. Not so easy to find salt of the earth country folk who don't suck shit, is it?"

This doesn’t NOT happen, and some of the biggest weirdo influencers are converts, so I get it. But I think white urban flight, “becoming” white in general, the collapse of the Catholic ghetto, and loosing of old cultural bonds (ie, being Irish American = being Catholic) are more essential.

This post is from a few days ago but I just saw it: Ari Fleischer complaining about propaganda is a level of irony that I am not properly caffeinated to process at this time.

TBF this isn’t just Bezos sucking up to Trump. You’ll be hard pressed to find any instance of American imperialism that the editorial board didn’t love.

People in the comments are giving him crap and I don’t know why? This is exactly what he should be saying.

Speed running through to authoritarianism while becoming generally unpopular is a new one for me. Usually authoritarians will make moves to increase their popularity, alongside consolidation of power.

trump calling devin nunes at truth hq and ordering him to bleach the servers

She’ll eventually “clarify” but this visceral reaction is the absolute truth

On one hand this is all horribly criminal, on the other the fact that we have the dumbest people trying to do fascism gives me hope that they won’t pull it off. Also, this all but guarantees that the people he specifically mentioned will never be prosecuted.

I’m super skeptical about this. Control of the algorithm was a big sticking point for the Chinese in these negotiations so far. Unless, of course, they got some huge concessions from the Americans.

Apparently this has been deleted. I genuinely can’t tell if this was meant to be a DM or a draft that was sent out too early?

“Yeah most likely but I have my doomsday bunker so I’m good”

Someone canceled a ONE HUNDRED FIFTY THOUSAND dollar wedding

Impeachable stuff aside, does he think that a new AG will just magically conjure evidence to not only convene a grand jury AND convince a judge not to throw out the charges AND convince a jury AND….

That video is not really Gunther, right? There is no way irony has this perfect of a sense of humor.

FWIW Trump was a big supporter of the war on terror and its aftermath before he decided he wasn’t.

Oh my GOD. This is the first official confirmation that the new H-1B entry ban does not apply to people with current visas (despite the text not containing ANY exception for people with current visas), and it’s not even something on an official website, it’s a passive aggressive tweet!

What’s more astonishing: 1) that the president clearly believes, and repeatedly suggests, that asylum seekers are people from mental asylums, or 2) that no journalist has ever challenged him on this and no mainstream media outlets have done any deep dives on this story?

I wish I knew more about the bond markets. Every time the treasury department sends out these notifications half of the takes are doom and the other half make it seem like business as usual.

I honestly don’t see how forty percent of the country looks at the economy and goes “thank you, sir” with tears in their eyes.

Hot take-ish but I see people dismissing voices on the right saying “they’re only worried because they’re afraid it’ll happen to them when Dems take back power” I don’t care. They are saying the right thing. You can give them credit for speaking out without completely exonerating them.

the right does a very good job of seeming like they're a large popular movement but really its a few dozen people that just bought all the megaphones

The thing is if all the major outlets bounced, and the administration had to communicate solely via the right-wing outlets, they'd reach far fewer people and come running back within two weeks.

Campaigning for the governorship of Virginia with the guy who helped make thousands of Virginians unemployed is…a choice.

Lol his brain is so putrid that the best he can come up with is a dig on his ratings. Letterman left his show on CBS ten years ago.

I know we’re living in weird times but there is no reason to exaggerate. This was sent out by Clay Higgins, one of the more deranged members of congress, with no co signees.

It’s not that Ted is growing a spine or standing up for his principles (he has neither), but rather Ted spends a fair share of his time online and sees the black lash growing.

Cruel irony: If Trump had just given a generic “now’s a time for Americans to come together” speech a week ago he’d be in high forties right.
