It’s genuinely unbelievable how much the average right winger’s conception of history is based on post-war American advertising of the mid 20th century

Yes this is the most pathetic thing in the world, but Trump's only remaining working brain cells know this is the Intercontinental Championship Belt of peace prizes.

One of the worst to ever do it. So self satisfied and indifferent to violence. Can't believe she lost a pivotal election to a dumbass.
Hillary Clinton blames TikTok and “totally made up” videos for young people’s views on Israel and Palestine.
She says social media influenced “not just the usual suspects” but also “young Jewish Americans who don’t know the history and don’t understand.”

There’s no way this guy’s continued existence as leader isn’t deliberate sabotage. Worst to ever do it.
JAKE TAPPER: You called on Hegseth to release the full tapes of the attack. What sort of action are Democrats prepared to take to make this happen?
CHUCK SCHUMER: We hope that they will release the tapes.

As a centrist, I think Donald Trump is bad, but the political and economic conditions that enabled him to become president twice are good

Not sure about movies, but I hope my loyal subjects enjoy playing Half Life 3 and the correctly made Sim City 5.
If you were a despotic president, what movie would you force Hollywood to make? I want to see Quentin's Star Trek movie or maybe Kill Bill Vol 3.

Not going to read too much into it, obviously Trump is the worst man alive, and is going to revert to saying the most odious shit imaginable in like an hour, but it's funny that this is coming a couple hours after 90 democrat losers voted to say "socialism is bad" for no reason.

A reporter asks if Mamdani stands by calling Trump a fascist. Mamdani starts to give a delicate answer.
Trump (smiles, pats Mamdani's arm): "That's OK, you can just say yes. It's easier. I don't mind."

I love the Dropkick Murphys because "Irish-American" + "gen X" + "punk rocker who's been at it for 30 years" should be the formula for the most racist guy alive but instead Ken Casey is constantly giving interviews where he's like "fascists are demons from hell and that's where they belong"

Media literacy is low overall but it’s also very high among a lot of people now and we’re not stupid enough to believe that ~the rules of journalism~ - especially at powerful institutions like the NYT - are real anymore. They obviously put their finger on the scale or let up when they want to.

They should study journalists’ brains like they do with football players after they die.
The emails that you’re seeing now are news in themselves, but that’s because of how they’re coming out—a congressional committee released them—& the context in which they’re being viewed. A guy emailing a reporter talking about old girlfriends or saying someone is “dirty” is not a whole news story.

Schumer reached out to leading presidential contenders to try and mute criticism of the deal, calling Josh Shapiro, Andy Beshear, JB Pritzker, and Gavin Newsom.
While Schumer voted against it, the eight Dems behind the shutdown deal said the minority leader was aware of their plan. trib.al/lcNlGik
