She must have found grifting outside of her previous job where she accomplished nothing left her with a much smaller snack budget and a complete lack of performative attention.

Also, your anti-Semitic dog whistle is disgusting, but unsurprising.

The fact that this post can generate so many nods and snickering is a reflection of how much the NYT had fucked itself over three decades of pandering bullshit.

White House staff should just make and show him an AI-generated video where he wins, fly him to Duluth and tell him it’s Oslo, and dare the New York Times to say anything more than “Experts disagree about whether Mr Trump was awarded the Nobel Prize”.

I've still never watched it. Just seeing a few highlights as a kid gave me nightmares!

If being laughed at is what blunts the Nazis attempts to coerce and intimidate into submission, then Portland will prove it for the rest of us! 🤣🤣

It's ironic just how much of the country will get to see just how amazing and eccentric a city Portland is after all of this....then they're going to be big mad about more people wanting to move there too!

Can our media pretend to even care about the minimal level of accountability to their roles? I'm betting "no".

If a federal judge, appointed by Trump, can call him “simply untethered to facts,” our White House press corps can as well.

In sum, the President is certainly entitled "a great level of deference," Newsom II, 141
F.4th at 1048, in his determination that he "is unable with the regular forces to execute the laws
of the United States." 10 U.S.C. § 12406(3). But "a great level of deference" is not equivalent to
ignoring the facts on the ground. As the Ninth Circuit articulated, courts must "review the
President's determination to ensure that it reflects a colorable assessment of the facts and law

within a 'range of honest judgment.'" Id. at 1051 (quoting Sterling, 278 U.S. at 399). Here, this
Court concludes that the President did not have a "colorable basis" to invoke § 12406(3) to
federalize the National Guard because the situation on the ground belied an inability of federal
law enforcement officers to execute federal law. Id. at 1051-52. The President's determination
was simply untethered to the facts.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

Don't say "when" until we figure out how to make the "if" work.

The ignorance is intentional at this point. Fuck them.

This is basically a fundamental refusal to see reality as it happens in front of you, Quixote.

"BlueMAGA" is the fun way leftists make themselves feel better despite their constant fuck-ups and chaos...helps maintain that strong veneer of unaccountability for anything and preserves their natural place of throwing stones from the sidelines.

Then what you "mean" is also bullshit. Anything Bernie did ended in 1964, was performative only, and is fat outweighed by his long list of racist and "color-blind" behavior and statements over a 40 yr career of performative...nothing. Not. A. Single. Accomplishment.

Not surprised, but this post literally reveals utter and complete ignorance of Black America, and indicates Anonymous, for all their potential good, is a danger to Black and Brown folks.

Anonymous @youranoncentral.bsky.social · Jun 9

The “Black folk stay home” narrative being shoved across social media is coming from the Trump regime and affiliated MAGA networks. It’s a series of troll farms and collaborators working together to influence / manipulate US citizens away from protesting. It’s an operation.

Personally, I wholeheartedly agree with you. But on another level, any electorate that decided to put Cankles McTaco Tits into office twice over two supremely qualified women that make him look like a slobbering 6 yr old eating mud pies in the playground probably doesn't deserve nice things anymore.

I can't say enough about how that show just makes me go dark...so visceral! Everyone's bad choices and judgment are enough, but Vince is a multiplier...for all!
And how TF does he not immediately try to shave and cut his hair after he flees? Dumbass, even for him!!!
