“Naturally Flavored with other Natural Flavors”
What does that mean?
I do like these little cookie things, but what in the world.

The same people who go on about “election integrity” are suing the states to obtain unredacted voter data.
This should be a huge story.

Trump calling Somali immigrants “garbage” shows that he sees little risk in open expressions of racism, @adamserwer.bsky.social argues.
Why Doesn’t Trump Pay a Political Price for His Racism?
Immigration isn’t breaking our society. We are.

You can’t use being “tough on drugs” as an excuse to bomb boats of suspected drug couriers while at the same time pardoning the former president of Honduras who was convicted of trying to bring drugs into America.

President Hernandez was responsible for smuggling 500 TONS of cocaine into the United States! He was the top dog; the Pablo Escobar figure! He wasn’t just “selling drugs in that country.”
Reporter: You have made so clear how you want to keep drugs out of the US—
Trump: Right
Reporter: Can you explain why you would pardon a notorious drug trafficker?
Trump: If somebody sells drugs in that country, that doesn’t mean you arrest the president

The president is a political cartoon of corruption come to life, a gaudy grifter who is selling off pardons and lining his pockets, building a golden ballroom and protecting his fellow sex predator elites, all the while regular Americans are suffering and struggling to make ends meet.

Because bigotry is confused with patriotism and because these “patriots” are seen by the press corps as the only authentic Americans. Everyone else, and I mean this, is second class.
"When Democrats or liberals question the morals of Trump voters, the press treats it as a major scandal. But Trump expresses a desire to cover protestors with feces — essentially saying that anyone who disagrees with him is shit — the media is barely willing to talk about it. Why?"
Trump shits on America. Why doesn’t the media care?
For many news orgs, Trump’s fascist coalition is uniquely legitimate.
