I don’t think “good at trolling Republicans on social media“ is an especially useful indicator of who we should elect as president.

Newsom has tons of gross baggage no one talks about anymore but will definitely come up in the 2028 election. Like how he was a 39-year-old mayor who brought his barely legal teenage girlfriend to functions where she was photographed drinking champagne. Or his marriage to Guilfoyle. Or his affairs.

Even if we take the administration at its word that the order did not explicitly come from Hegseth, Bradley was clearly doing what he believed Hegseth wanted him to do.
In any case Hegseth is the guy in charge and thus ultimately responsible (along with anyone who carried out the illegal orders).

If he had, he probably wouldn't be the one to bring it up to the press and certainly wouldn't brag about "acing" it.

They even suck at warehouse tasks compared to purpose-built robots. A modern Amazon warehouse is filled with automated machines that are MUCH faster and more efficient at what they do than a humanoid robot could ever be.

There are going to be many, many books published in the coming decades detailing the nature and extent of the shenanigans that happened behind closed doors in the Trump administration, but the ones focusing on all the health-related coverups should make for an interesting subgenre.

The appeal is that In-N-Out is probably the best fast food burger *for its price point.* Obviously you can find better options if you are willing to pay multiple times as much for a similar meal.

He’s no profile in courage to be sure, but this still feels like a subtle “F— you and your lawless bullshit ” to the administration on the way out without saying anything explicit enough to make himself a target for MAGA death threats.

I kind of get the impression this is Bacon’s way of calling Hegseth a fool and a war criminal while disguising it at a defense of Hegseth so as not to make himself a target of the administration.
He knows what Hegseth did and now he will act shocked and disappointed when investigations prove it.

No country other than the United States of America has the word "America" in its name, however. So it makes more sense as an abbreviation than "Uniteds" or "Statesians" would.

I get that "American" isn't ideal since it could theoretically refer to anyone on the American continenta, but it still does make sense as a national abbreviation because the United States of America is the only country that has "America" in its name. Others use "The"/"United"/"States"/"of."

I used to work for a studio that offered after-school classes in digital media back when getting on YouTube was still a pretty new thing. We used to joke that impatient teens came in expecting a magical "Make Movie" button. Now that's basically a real thing and it's just so… sad.

It's been infuriating hearing the MAGAs spend the last 9 years gaslighting us that Russian interference was a "hoax" just because no one in the Trump regime faced criminal consequnces. Putin's manipulation was very real even if Trump & Co. *were* genuinely stupid enough to remain ignorant of it.

The media's habit of publishing statements issued by law enforcement as if they were reliable, relatively unbiased sources of information was a pretty huge problem even before the Trump regime came to power.

When you’re speeding towards a cliff then hitting the brakes and putting the vehicle in reverse may be the ONLY sensible course of action.
If this idiot was around in 1636 he would have been screaming for everyone to double down on tulip investments lest the economy collapse.

Also, the sinister corporation was supposedly bleeding money (thus the rush to monetize the theme park idea) even though they had secretly developed technologies ranging from quantum powered supercomputers to in-ear translator devices and they never thought to, I dunno, MARKET any of that shit?

It was so dumb it dragged the whole novel into the realm of parody. Like when Dr. Evil unveils his time machine in Austin Powers II and Number Two points out that he could use it to make trillions on the stock market, but Dr. Evil decides to use it to steal Austin Powers’ mojo instead.
