He started a war, didn’t know how to win it, was immediately over his head, became quickly overpowered by an enemy he vastly underestimated, and now is trying to sue for peace and then convince you that this was a victory. Dying empires produce leaders like this

Dick Cheney was more visible in the immediate aftermath of 9/11 than Vance is right now and he was in an underground bunker.

I was cooking here

can this be a solution?

Watch this clip. Professors will recognize this kid as the student who didn't do the reading but still has very strong opinions about how it's all "bullshit," except this time he's not the callow student who's going to fail your course, he's the reviewer who's going to cancel your grant.

Me, in 30 years having not gotten the news that the boycott ended

If Dems had their own Fox News and other cogs of a propaganda machine, Andrew Paul Johnson would become a household name a la Willie Horton.

A useful way to understand what’s happening in America and the world is to remember that Trump views war abroad as a tool of domestic politics, and domestic politics as civil war by other means. www.offmessage.net/p/republican...

The Troops do not deserve the massive public blowjob they've been getting for the last 25 years. They're not better Americans than the rest of us.

“.. a fresh stagflationary wind blowing through the global economy ..”

SCHUMER: President Trump is attacking Iranian targets at a time when fissile nuclear material costs more than ever before for middle-class Americans,

This is "the one big trick" that the right has mastered. They present their movement as just "the authentic voice of the volk outraged by Democratic overreach," when really what they're doing is just old fashioned political mobilization. Organize a passle of pissed off people & call it a movement.

Decades ago the Democrats internalized the Gingrichian propaganda that they’re fundamentally illegitimate traitors and the Republicans alone represent Real America

Homer derisively saying “Stand up for yourself, poindexter!” to Millhouse is the skeleton key to understanding Dem electoral performance post-Obama. Loser stink - rather than ideology or policy - is the most toxic thing imaginable to the marginal voter who swings elections. They are Homer.

I agree. Democratic politicians don't speak like human beings. They give off squirrellyness like a stink. Their spokespeople suffer from a soft bigotry of low expectations. It has to stop. "Leaders" who can only criticize fascism in passive voice harm democracy. coreyrobin.com/2026/02/26/o...

You could replace every powerful Democrat with someone who has been abused as a child and that would go a long way to fixing this country

both joe rogan and megyn kelly—two of the biggest podcasts out there—had guests today who argued that it’s unnatural for women to work outside the home. so that’s how that’s going

this might suck for you but I for one am in a pretty good position to become a mid level bureaucrat under a Chinese occupation government so this is a big win for me

Trump just leaned into racist instincts in 2016 when advisors would have said not to and it worked. But it’s like mashing buttons as Eddy Gordo in Tekken. It can get you some surprise wins but if you can’t ever adapt your strategy from feedback you will lose

TFW you made him king and he still doesn't love you

Another swing and a miss

It’s not really a mystery as to why you don’t see many folks on the right cheering on and celebrating American Olympic victories. They hate the country as it exists today. They’re very clear on this point.

I hate how much this is me lol

someday men's hockey will be sufficiently evolved that the gold medal winning team will celebrate by fucking each other

1/ Okay, now I’m mad. Any Supreme Court in our nation’s history before John Roberts would have upheld the lower courts’ injunctions blocking Trump’s tariffs & not issued a stay that let Trump wreck the economy and break the law for over a year. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/20/u...

"The Court is corrupt. There’s no future for the America republic without thoroughly reforming it of its current corruption. Today’s decision is simply one of those cases where the Constitution happens to coincide with the Court’s partial and illegitimate self-interest." — @joshtpm.bsky.social

Wow: Meta has been working on plans to add facial recognition technology to its AI smart glasses. nyti.ms/3Os1oxf And this was the company’s cynical view on when, and how, to do it:

I think the most likely outcome is that Dems win in 26 and 28, fix like sixty percent of Trump‘s damage by 2030, and promptly lose the 2030 midterms because the average voter has the memory of a goldfish.

football players are all like gimme that coconut it’s mine! and tennis players are all like fuck this lemon i hate it so much you take it.

This is really an instance of a very longstanding trend where secular pundits end up unwittingly aligned with fundamentalists in treating the crudest and most extreme version of any faith as the genuine article and everything else as somehow inauthentic.

Yeah, I’m American. Yeah, I’m fat and eat burger.

Truly nice people are terrible judges of character. They can’t imagine the depravity and evil motives of others because they haven’t experienced these things

it ought to be interesting to see who winds up winning the super bowl this year. both the patriots and seahawks made it, so it’s going to be a real “battle of the nfl teams” type of situation

Watching "The Keepers" on Netflix, and just absolutely disgusted at the powerful, the Catholic, the rich, evidently overwhelmingly afflicted with a pandemic of pedophilia in this country. Is it any wonder that these ~people want to persecute LGBTQ people and claim that we are the predators?

Xbox LIVE was willing to do in 2013 what the entire US establishment was not.

Notice that Democratic Party leaders are not only not proposing meaningful measures to stop this, but they are actively proposing to *keep giving ICE money to do it.*
