Milan set the standard: JD Vance was booed at the Olympics because we see through him.
If he tries his "gaslighting tour" at the Munich Security Conference, he should get the same treatment.

Does anyone else find it funny that a year ago JD Vance came to Europe to lecture us on free speech and now it appears a US network has edited out him getting booed at the Olympics?

And why would he apologize for a racist post about the Obamas?
He built his political brand ON RACISM, remember? (-> „birtherism“)
He was elected on that platform twice, so please, enough with the handwringing.

I think a good way to understand what happens to NATO in the Trump era is Cory Doctorow’s concept of “enshittification”.

Platform decay: The enshittification of everything
The enshittocene began in platforms like Facebook, but it spread to the analog world. Is everything just going to decay? Not necessarily.

Donald Trump is withholding billions of dollars in New York infrastructure unless he gets Penn Station and Dulles Airport named after him.
This is not only brazenly corrupt. It is sick, twisted and egomaniacal. The time is long overdue for sane Republicans to stand up to Trump.

Dear Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt:
You may not be aware of this, but it actually matters to the American public whether Donald Trump (1) has the intellect and temperament of a five-year old, (b) is a racist cretin, or (c) as seems most likely, both.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

White House ‘can’t guarantee’ ICE won’t be at polls
The federal government has historically recognized polling places as off-limits for immigration enforcement precisely to avoid deterring lawful voters.
