It's this but then the exterminator sends you text messages asking for more money every 3 hours for the rest of your life
the reason people sometimes act madder at democrats than republicans when republicans do impossibly evil shit is the same reason why, if you hired an exterminator to handle a roach infestation and he showed up to feed and play with them instead, your first instinct wouldn’t be to yell at the roaches

Reading Chotiner interviews with people who actually know what they're talking about is interesting because you realize his main skill is not "gotchas" but just like, facilitating effective communication. when that runs into someone who's used to dissimulating they get humiliated.

Mark Carney needs to issue a statement *for* Canadians as much as for Trump.
This is not leadership.

Mark Carney now the only G7 leader not to issue a statement directly. The leaders of Canada's other major federal political parties have, as well
I think Justin Trudeau would have said something by now

I despise these decrepit bloodthirsty fucks more than I can say.
NYT with a completely psychotic take:
1. It’s good but doesn’t go far enough.
2. Might be some problems with how it was done but let’s not focus there, because
3. What if icky China does this???
Plenty to celebrate and probably awesome but some difficulty ahead 👍🥰😇

I used to think the bipartisanship line was exclusively because guys like this had a conception of politics from the 80s; now I believe it's at least in part an alibi for doing nothing. Schumer thinks he has to do nothing to avoid endangering a Dem sweep in the midterms; it's probably the opposite.
Asked about the possibility of impeachment, Schumer says "we hope that we can have support from our Republican colleagues to put a brake on this long before it gets that far"

Blows my mind that some of the same journalists who see Trump as a want-to-be dictator at home are earnestly discussing the "challenges" for this same man to "bring democracy" to a country it just illegal invaded. Please grow up.

Imagining CBC issuing a values statement that includes "We love Canada" and laughing my ass off.
Incredible. CBS Evening News announces five new “simple values” — instead of their “38-page handbook” — as they roll out Tony Dokoupil is lead anchor.
One of those values is simply: “We love America and make no apologies for saying so.”

Just attacking a deeply vulnerable group for no reason other than to kowtow to right wingers is deranged behaviour. Psychotic.
This brainrot is more responsible for the rise of authoritarianism in the US than any of the wokeness it will not shut up about

Man if it doesn't happen this year god is truly dead.
Finally, Trump's diet! Oh my god. The piece closes with RNC Chair Joe Gruters saying he was "shocked" to witness Trump eat "french fries, a McDonald’s Quarter Pounder hamburger, a Big Mac and a Filet-O-Fish" in one sitting (5/6)
