Until there is a massive and public effort to undo DOGE, this administration should get zero benefit of the doubt whenever things fall apart. Which is happening more frequently.

WOW! These assholes! They remind me of every incompetent boss I’ve ever had—and their frustration with having to answer questions is bonkers! And the whining! It’s not our fault! A complete overhaul at one time! How would that work!? Rant over….😰

Y'all will eventually reckon with the fact that "woke" is a BLACK word stolen from BLACK people by WHITE SUPREMACIST FASCISTS to stigmatize BLACK PEOPLE and others deemed disposable and to dismantle pro-BLACK qua "progressive" policies IN THE WAKE OF THE BLACK LIVES MATTER MOVEMENT. The fucking end.

Just like a lot of pundits have internalized the idea that conservatives are the only real Americans, they have internalized the idea that right wing christianity is the only real American religious tradition

We absolutely keep the trade talks and connections with other countries going! As well as the boycotts. They've changed momentum but as a friend on fb said, "Calm down. Only one day sober and the whiskey bottle is still on the counter. 12 steps will take some time." ✔️

I've been using the term "asshole" a lot to describe the president and his most ardent supporters and it's meant to be descriptive. These are people who, at best, don't see others as real, and don't care how their actions affect them. They live between casual indifference and gleeful cruelty

One thing that’s going to be annoying in the historicization of this moment is the idea that because the Trump regime failed to consolidate authoritarian control, that somehow means they must not have really been fascists. No. They were fascists and bad at it.

FR though there’s a growing trend of folks getting offended by the fact our ancestors were enslaved. They seem to think it reflects poorly on them that their ancestors were victims. I think it reflects poorly on someone else’s ancestors to do the enslaving tbh
