I like weird stuff and do weird things. Sometimes words come out.
Was a WMD lie too much of a stretch? Americans love being lied to about WMDs.

Stolen Oil?

That's a stupid lie. No one wants to send their kids to die to fluff the oil barons.
Trump on Venezuela: "They took all of our oil and we want it back. They illegally took it."

The oil company people who own this dumb orange waste are so fucking gross.
Trump on Venezuela: "Getting land, oil rights, whatever we had -- they took it away because we had a president that maybe wasn't watching. But they're not gonna do that. We want it back. They took our oil rights. We had a lot of oil there. They threw our companies out. And we want it back."

This really is, as Sara says, INSANE memory-holing: Minutes after FCC Chairman Carr told Congress that the FCC "is not" an independent agency (see video below via @atrupar.com), the FCC website started getting scrubbed to remove that description.

No. What you're seeing is a desperate, hollow creature looking for an endless series of 5-minute hits on cable news.
GOP Rep. Michael McCaul: "I do find this conversion of Marjorie Taylor Greene talking about how we need to tone down the rhetoric when she's been the one who has thrown a lot of that out very fascinating to watch. What you're seeing is a break within MAGA."

You really should be questioning everyone with a diploma from Yale.
Q: Susie Wiles referred to you as a "conspiracy theorist" and your transformation into a Trump supporter as "an act of political expediency." Your response?

JD VANCE: Sometimes I am in conspiracy theorist, but I only believe in the conspiracy theories that are true

Just so I'm clear on this, computer memory has tripled in price because a bunch of it that hasn't been produced yet has been ordered to populate GPUs that aren't installed in data centers that aren't built yet in order to service a demand that doesn't exist to make profits that don't happen.

At what point did being completely wrong start counting as an “opinion”? Claiming vaccines cause autism isn’t an opinion. It’s utter bullshit. And then they say, “Well, that’s my opinion, you have to respect it.” No. I don’t have to respect stupidity. Fuck off.

This has nothing to do with his image. It's all about not trusting the interpreter to convey his lies adequately.
WHAT THE FUCK DOES THAT EVEN MEAN?

That he has a goddamn heart?

It would “severely intrude on the President’s prerogative to control the image he presents to the public” and force him to “share his platform” with an ASL interpreter."

Is there a way to make the doubling or tripling of people's premiums sound good?
Q: At the end of this year, those extended Obamacare subsidies expire. What's your message to those 24m Americans who will see their premiums go up?

TRUMP: Don't make it sound so bad. Obviously you're a sycophant for Democrats. You're obviously a provider of bad news for Republicans.

Once again thinking about the time on Twitter where some guy was complaining about how a morning show don’t have any white people on it and I posted a picture of the morning show and it had 4 white people and one black person and the guy said “yeah but they wish they could fire the 4 white people”
Hiring a Black woman: “identity politics”

Hiring a white guy for a job that has been held disproportionately by white guys, because he is a white guy: “subverting” identity politics!

(The author of this sentence is Dylan Byers; you will not be surprised to learn that he is a white guy.)
