A sanctioned oil tanker named Skipper. I've been told it's normal and legal, but I also don't have the background knowledge to verify what I've been told.

I'm impressed by people bragging about their inability to do five minutes of research to see if there were any articles written about this.

"this is consistent with the type of xenophobic behavior that we've seen from this President, from the administration, from my Republican colleagues instead of focusing on the issues that matter because they have no solutions"

It's explicitly not a slogan.

It's a talking point Jeffries uses to segue into talking about opportunity and the need to support social programs.

Here's him saying it in August and October, for example.

"We are now receiving conflicting reports about the condition of our two Guard members and will provide additional updates once we receive more complete information. "

His campaign was contacted by the media weeks before the story broke, and his immediate response was to ignore them.

The real fun is when they start explaining that you completely misread their original statement and obviously everyone is just being too mean to them.

Combined with the earlier "Dems about to cave" article, it seems like Republicans are still working internally on the easiest part of their proposal and haven't reached bipartisan negotiations.

It's also an odd conclusion to take from the article, as written.

I mean, maybe the GOP plan really is "We're promising them a vote later". But as written, it's "Passing health care tax credits will be part of the deal".

Quick reminder that Platner ignored people telling him he had a Nazi tattoo.

The timing matched the reddit posts oppo for initial stories, but the follow-up social media post after the tattoo podcast matches the resignation timeline much more closely and offers an explanation for where she disagreed with the campaign.

This is them getting ahead of the story after they were contacted by the media asking questions about his tattoo.

Left unsaid is why he waited until AFTER they got ahead of the story to cover up the tattoo.

Senate Republicans went to Politico on Sept 25 and said directly "We're requesting a meeting with the White House" and it appears they haven't received a response.

In related news, Mills confronted Trump directly and that confrontation is mentioned in a few headlines.

But I guess it doesn't count now for unexplained reasons.

I think they're reporting on this social media post. It could be a sarcastic joke or serious, I'm relying on an automated translation to read it.

Except that was the case in 2024 as well.

This is impressively bad.

The news article headlines really help explain a lot about our current media landscape.

It took her a while, but she's finally figured out how to defend her use of bipartisan as not referring to the Democratic party.
July 10, 2025 at 9:33 PM
I am reminded that she got into a dumb argument a couple of days ago over similar nonsense.
