This is unthinkable, but here I am thinking it:

If Trump gave an order to invade Canada, he would be triggering NATO Article V against the United States itself. So the only constitutional response by those officers to such an order is to treat it as an immediate, irrevocable resignation from him.

Q: What’s the capital of Argentina?

A: About ten bucks.

Donald Trump singled out Kilmar Abrego Garcia for torture and the political press also doesn’t think it’s a scandal worthy of hellfire.

Queerhawk 🏳️‍🌈 | 🇺🇦 | 🛡 @alwaysadorecats.bsky.social · 9h

Chris does the name Kilmar Abrego Garcia ring a bell at all. Because Donald Trump tortured him.

This is like how everyone knows that the Simpsons started in the 90s, even if December 1989 *technically* wasn’t part of the 90s

As a reminder, when Jack Posobiec was in the US Navy, they assessed his full capabilities and concluded that he was best suited to collecting samples for urinalysis

Justin Baragona @justinbaragona.bsky.social · 1d

Incredible.

Jack Posobiec references the earliest version of antifa -- the anti-fascists in the Weimar Republic who were opposed to the Nazi Party -- as the bad guys.

This beaten horse is long since dead, but it sure would be great if the same press corps that treated Her Emails as the top national story for a year would treat this scandal as the damning scandal it is.

I think it’s notable that Hegseth, Noem, RFK Jr, Rubio, Miller, et al have their own little fiefdoms, but Scott Turner is just… kinda there, not really doing anything?

Like, this is all Wikipedia has to say about his tenure in office.

Queerhawk 🏳️‍🌈 | 🇺🇦 | 🛡 @alwaysadorecats.bsky.social · 20h

This is my sense as well. They truly act like Ex dot com, The Everything App, is an accurate reflection of public sentiment.

It’s why they also treat it like a universal assignments editor.

One thing that really leaves me gobsmacked is when he makes absurd, obviously stupid claims like this, but the press treats him as a showman being hyperbolic when all available evidence points to him being dead serious.

Queerhawk 🏳️‍🌈 | 🇺🇦 | 🛡 @alwaysadorecats.bsky.social · 1d

They’re also the people who watch hours upon hours of slop channel bodycam footage every day, then trick themselves into believing that they’re only ever seconds away from being the victims of a horrific crime.

He’s sort of like a human LLM, in that he’ll lie constantly, and he’ll retain *some* memory of previous input, but it’s a crapshoot as to which bits of information will actually stick.

Queerhawk 🏳️‍🌈 | 🇺🇦 | 🛡 @alwaysadorecats.bsky.social · 1d

He’s lying, but I also think he’s stuck mentally in 2020, when he was also watching videos claiming that Portland was burning.

Chemtrails? Is this chemtrails talk?

That used to be considered a sign that a person was crazy and I feel crazy for pointing out that this is crazy talk!

Look, I’m a freak plugged into the internet pretty much 24/7, but someone’s gonna have to explain “weather modification activities” to me because that’s straight up crazy person talk. That is the talk of someone who thinks the earth is flat and the moon is a hologram.

SCOOP: Last year, Ubisoft cancelled an Assassin's Creed game set during Reconstruction. Was to feature a Black Assassin who, among other things, fought the rise of the Klan

Sources: Leadership nixed it over concerns re: U.S. political climate, backlash to Yasuke

Just openly cheering the destruction of any representation of gay people in public space. They think their power is totally unrestricted, and the entire country will support them rolling back society to the 1950s, or maybe the 1850s

If anyone is hiking around Idaho and sees Fred Ramsdell also hiking somewhere in Idaho, you might want to let him know he's won the Nobel Prize in Medicine and he should call the committee back.

This is a scandal. The administration is pumping out new scandals every day. I promise that Trump hiding the Epstein files and the secret Signal chat are scandals worse than Watergate or Her Emails.

Once again banging my head against a wall begging journalists to treat a scandal like an actual scandal.

Reuters photographer Jonathan Ernst noticed that Bondi flipped open a file during the Senate hearing and he zoomed in.

Inside were her crib notes for attacking the senators.

The GOP now practicing Cliff's Notes Fascism

In other words, under oath Bondi was purely a performance.

Bondi senate hearing had a folder full of notes for attacking the senators
