The year is 2030. Pickup trucks are now so large they take up both lanes. There is a lot of honking, swearing, and crotch-grabbing whenever two of them have to pass each other. Smaller cars just get run over. The government, fearful of being accused of over-regulation, is hesitant to intervene.

Facebook thinks I'm conservative for some reason, so they like to show me lots of right-wing slop. When news of this guy's arrest broke, they immediately spun the story that he was a liberal doing a false flag operation. This is why Trumpers are impervious to reality. They're on a steady diet of BS.

It's gonna hurt her pardon chances, eh?

I know it's only one problem out of many, but the media really does a disservice to the American people by never following up with politicians when they pull this bullshit. Like how hard would it be to ask this guy back on your show a few days later and ask him the same questions again?
Q: You outlined the dangers posed by drugs. So what explanation do you have for Trump pardoning the former president of Honduras?

SEN. ROGER MARSHALL: I don't know the details. Happy to look into it. I can't speak to it

Q: Alright. Um. Ok. Like, no thought on it?

MARSHALL: I haven't researched it

Ah yes, TikTok, that bastion of journalistic rigor.
Bessent at a New York Times event: "I actually don't read the New York Times anymore ... I read this article -- 'President Trump is slowing down. President Trump's mental capacity' -- it is 100% fake. This is why young people are going to TikTok ... we just had a 3 hour cabinet meeting yesterday!"

Trump tries to insult both Biden and Walz here, but his brain is so scrambled what he says has led a lot of people to think he was insulting his own vice president as incompetent (which he is, but that's beside the point).
Trump on Tim Walz: "I think the man is a grossly incompetent man. I thought that from the day I watched JD destroy him in the debate. I was saying, 'Who's more incompetent, that man or my man?' I had a man and he had a man. They were both incompetent."

Trying to imagine the field day the press would have had if Biden had done anything close to this.
Trump dozes while Marco Rubio speaks to him directly next to him. Just insane optics.

What kind of person not only wants to see people killed, but dismembered, suffering, and dying slowly? This is psychopathic.

Keep in mind these are innocent people, both legally (they have not been convicted of any crime), and potentially morally (we have no proof they are even drug traffickers).

Let's see, what rank did Hegseth achieve during his career? It was Army National Guard major, which is O-4, two ranks lower than Kelly's rank of Navy captain, O-6. As always, these chest-thumpers give off huge insecure energy.

This is honestly hilarious and one of the best things they've done at former Twitter since Community Notes.
X has changed their policy and now you can see where the accounts are based.

Not to take anything away from Mamdani's political skills, which I'm sure played a role in Trump's seemingly positive reception, but I can't help but wonder if Trump also reacted this way because deep down he still loves New York and wants to be a part of that scene. He misses his old life. 1/2

"Alive drinking water" yeah I'll bet it's alive with all kinds of parasites and bacteria.

Also, "as we dream into manifestation a big vision together" sounds like a combination of the worst kinds of New Age and corporate mumbo jumbo.

Bad news, folks. The red-pill Christian patriarchalists have a new variant: polygamists who argue that marrying multiple women is "the only way to fix the dating collapse in the West."

Don't let me get in the way of Hanania telling on himself, but it's revealing how men like this never distinguish between recognizing that someone is attractive and actually being attracted to them. In their minds, "that woman [or girl] is pretty" is the same as "I'd like to sleep with her." 1/2

Gotta love the posters who will leave an angry or insulting reply to you and then tell you they are muting you. Like I don't care if you mute me; there's no need to announce it. Plus if you don't want to engage don't reply at all. It gives real fragile coward energy to diss and dash.

Perhaps this is judgmental of me, but I think almost all extreme age gap relationships are weird and gross, especially if one of them was very young when they met or married. If your partner is old enough to be your parent, ew.
Excited to learn about who is in the Epstein files from a woman who’s 32 years younger than her husband

I have generally defended the news media. A free press is essential for a free society. But then someone like Olivia Nuzzi comes along and I think, maybe we aren't hard enough on journalists.

Thank you, everyone who posted that horrendous AI-generated "we are Charlie Kirk" song. It is now stuck in my head. I'm calling the Etsy witches on you.

Hilarious that Mark Epstein came out and was basically like, "Bubba is not Bill Clinton; hope that clears everything up." Like no, it certainly does not.

Trump when any news outlet says anything remotely critical of him: "What they're doing is probably illegal."

Trump when Tucker Carlson hosts an open white nationalist and antisemite: "You can't tell him who to interview."

This is unreal. I normally wouldn't recommend reading prose this self-important and overwrought, but the build-up is worth it, trust me.
