One thing that’s always been wild to me is there inability to recognize who the bad guy is. Jessup, Patrick Bateman, Jordan Belfort. These guys consistently idolize the obvious villain.
Just remarkable storytelling and use of the medium
They unironically quote Tony Soprano every Columbus Day
Trump is completely indifferent to the potential of U.S. civilians being killed as blowback on his illegal war of choice.

Would love for him to name the "dumb, politically correct wars of the past."
I know a lot of Twitter discourse is about how you have to stay on Twitter or you'll have no influence on the general public and miss out on great ideas but I dropped in on X today and it's just a bunch of MAGA and heterodox pundits mad at Lindy West for being polyamorous.
Calling states "red" and "blue" based on presidential results not only ignores the partisanship of other statewide votes but also ignores how lousy those descriptors are at the presidential level.

Bibi needs war to stay out of prison. This has been true for years.

You don’t say
the one who loved horses, the one who was a great goalkeeper, the one who kept a diary every day, the one who held her sister's hand when they walked to school, the one who read Harry Potter in English, the one who collected old coins, the one who drew rainbows for her grandmother ...
It rules that the biggest name in conspiracy mongering about propaganda and shadowy elites is the son of the former head of Voice of America, tried to join the CIA, and is on the record in multiple legal cases admitting that his viewers shouldn't trust him.
The heterodox civility cops won't bat an eye about something like this coming from a U.S. Congressman but they're still mad about something Joy Reid said in 2022
Bari Weiss is state media.
The irony that Bush's failed war of choice built on lies led to the backlash that allowed Trump to take over the GOP and the country has brought us to another war of choice built on lies but even more reckless and without even an attempt to justify the lies.
Oh, but I've already been reassured that blowback is not a real thing by TOP MINDS.
we've found an even worse cover of this song than kid rock's
This is a pretty good analogy.
Not true.
When we talk about Baby Boomers not getting off the stage: In 1997, the US president was born in 1946.
In 2007, the US president was born in 1946.
In 2017, the US president was born in 1946.
And next year in 2027? The US president will have been born in 1946.
Greg Dolezal, a Georgia state senator and conservative Republican who's running to be lieutenant governor, released this bizarre Islamophobic "anti-sharia" ad that, somewhat confusingly, features an AI generated driver that looks exactly like Claire Danes.
"We have always been at war with Ayatollah Khamenei"
"The next administration should also prosecute all those involved in the dismantling of USAID. On top of being a humanitarian catastrophe, it was illegal under American law as a unilateral shutdown of a Congressionally enshrined agency."
For years on my old blog I published the names of servicemembers who died in Iraq & Afghanistan. No other outlets were.
These are the first 4 Americans to die in the Iran War.
Capt. Cody A. Khork, 35
Sgt. 1st Class Noah L. Tietjens, 42
Sgt. 1st Class Nicole M. Amor, 39
Sgt. Declan J. Coady, 20
But Benghazi
former Federalist editor has deep thoughts about right-wing conspiracy theory brain rot
JD VANCE: "There's just no way Trump is gonna about this country to get into a multiyear conflict with no end in sight"
TRUMP HOURS LATER: "Wars can be fought 'forever,' and very successfully"
Pennsylvania's weird, but yeah
Tepid take: without that stupid hoodie and shorts get-up he never even gets elected to statewide office.
MAGA's gonna make a folk hero out of Hillary Clinton, who in these videos looks like an exceedingly patient and reasonable person who's putting up with bullshit from insipid, dishonest morons rather than make a spectacle of herself.
jfc that's real?
