I usually try to explain it like this: picture Sigmund Freud as President Xi. Now imagine they're Yugoslavian. Doesn't look so much like the burning of the Library of Alexandria was caused by parents mocking Denmark now, does it?
I have never heard a more energetic and sloppy tongue bathing.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · last wk.Hannity: "My President, Lindsey probably has a heavenly version of Mar-a-Lago. It may even be a little bigger. I wouldn't be surprised if he added one big beautiful ballroom and an arch somewhere on the property. Because he would want to obviously duplicate his dearest friend in life. You."
"For Musk, the notion that white nations are threatened by non-white contamination is a starting point—something to be reasoned from, not reasoned to."
Greg Sargent@gregsargent.bsky.social · last wk.When Elon Musk says "zero" children died in Africa from his DOGE cuts, he really means zero children died who are *worthy of any concern.* It's vile coded signaling to his global fascist audience. From me and @polphilpod.bsky.social, a deep dive into Musk's fascism: newrepublic.com/article/2135...
New report from Ohio Immigrant Alliance: Of 59 criminal ICE and Border Patrol agents, 85% committed sex offenses, nearly 2/3 against children. "The sexual and physical violence against women and children documented in OIA’s report is not an aberration — it is a reflection of the agencies’ culture.”

Kyle Clark@kylec.bsky.social · 4w agoNEW: The Associated Press has called the Colorado GOP Gov primary for ministry leader Victor Marx. Here is my interview with Marx in May about his unsubstantiated claims, the number of people he's killed as a civilian, and the exorcisms he performs.

Seems like we have a cool and good functioning government where people are left wondering if an absent representative is even alive for the second time in as many weeks.

Britain about to get its seventh Prime Minister in ten years. I can’t say I’m surprised. As a people they’re often wonderful of course—very musical, for example, many charming customs, and always joking around in their quirky way—but they just don’t have the temperament for stable self-government.
Really want to pick the brains of the people saying it should end now and was worth the costs.

Many different kinds of Trump voters are beginning to suspect that they got fooled. Now isn’t the time to make them like Democrats - it’s the time to make them hate Republicans. paulwaldman.substack.com/p/they-think...

Democrats need to worry less about how voters feel about Democrats and more about how voters feel about Republicans.

They force-feminized all the World Cup players and now it’s called the Girled Cup. They did this due to woke and gender. The sport is called footovary now too sorry. Girled Cup
I know there are many different things to run on, and we do hear about corruption, but as we head into the midterm Dems should be beating this drum every day, every hour. Massively playing up corruption has a long and storied history of getting the bums thrown out! And the Trumps are so, so corrupt.
I would say that Elon Musk lies all the time, and blaming his political involvement on his daughter is part of his ongoing abuse of his daughter. "you made me do it" is intended as punishment and threat.

When the Pentagon announced a $620 million loan to a startup linked to Donald Trump Jr., defense officials and the company tried tamping down suspicions of cronyism. But interviews and records show the loan request was from Peter Navarro, a Trump adviser and crony www.propublica.org/article/dona...
The White House Intervened to Get a $620 Million Deal for a Company Tied to Donald Trump Jr.
About three months before the Pentagon announced plans to lend money to Vulcan Elements, Trump Jr.’s venture capital firm took an undisclosed stake in the company.

If these guys would just call America the hottest country in the world instead of this, they could probably squeeze another $25 billion out of President Deals.

Billionaires must be targeted with tax policy and antitrust policy not because it helps everyone else (though it does) but because their political power must be limited so they can't wreck the world the way they're currently doing

A whole Washington Post oped hitting AOC for daring to criticize the robber barons. It’s like Bezos and the Post are trying to make her president.
Oliver Willis@owillis.bsky.social · 3mo agoThe Bezos Post is essentially becoming Jeff Bezos’ personal blog to whine about people who criticize the idle rich like him. A hit dog will holler. Imagine arguing that hoarding billions of dollars is the peak of “human potential” with a straight face.
