Ah yes, the Rite of Self-Exculpation. Right on time. The colorful ritual where they shed guilt and the weight of responsibility by invoking the history of an alternate universe where they were proven right about everything all along.

Russian soldiers returning in defeat to a country still ruled by the same vainglorious fucks who sent conscripts off to redeem the incompetence and corruption of their rulers with blood and suffering. What could go wrong?

Do they say where the tanks for this return to mechanized attacks are going to come from? Have they found some previously overlooked depot of T-38's somewhere to press into service?

Translation: JD Vance is reportedly seeing a path to making the 25th work for him after all, assuming Tulsi doesn't whack him.

Fun fact: Tulsi replaced the DDO last August with a guy with no Wikipedia entry or background info that shows up in top search results on Google.

This is absolutely the best possible thing to be using to stimulate our eventual cyborg-on-a-chip overlords onto the road to sentience. I cannot think of any possible thing to embed into the very structure of their latent consciousness. What could go wrong?

I am pro-incompetence when it comes to this Administration.

Not that competence is a menu choice for them at this point.

Psychopaths leading mental and/or emotional children. It's a bad combo.

They are not "clueless." They never were. They are, and always have been, the semi-official organ of the Manhattan branch of the oligarchy.

The bothsiderism and relentless attacks on every Democratic president or candidate were never about misguided evenhandedness or wrapped up in some professional norm or ethic. It was baith propaganda all along. and still.

Man, they sure used the word LIE very easily with Jasmine Crockett even when the statement was honestly subjective and they should have used a different word. I wonder WHY??? Hmmm just can't put my finger on it πŸ€” I'm so sick of this shit 😑

Honestly, if you believe there's a world on the other side of this, they you have to be in favor of them walking themselves into prison.

So how are leftists who voted against Kamala to keep us out of war handling this? Worked themselves around to how she would have launched an unprovoked zero-planning war against Iran herself anway yet?

Far from the most unsettling Batman graphic novel ever written, but quite unsettling enough to be going on with.

By the most amazing coincidence, a strong majority of the American public agrees. All our media is owned by oligarchist billionaires now, of course, but oddly enough, the more of our mainstream and social media they buy, the less we care what they say we should think.

The only reason I can see for someone to try to gaslight people about the meaning of this poll is that a catastrophic collapse of Trump's political support eight month before midterms is inimical to your actual objectives or threatening to your dogma.

Wait, "imminent threat" doesn't mean the same thing as "annoyance?"

I hear you. But given my belief that when evil is the only option, incompetent evil is preferable to competent evil, I need to hear more.

What Does Russia Have on Trump? Americans Deserve an Answer As Russia reportedly shares intelligence with Iran that could endanger American forces, the White House chooses to ease pressure on Moscow instead of confronting it.

Ukraine offers to help defend the West from Iranian drones.

Russia helps Iran track American forces.

And the White House eases sanctions on Russian oil.

Explain that to the families of U.S. troops. My latest:

Yeah, turns out voting entails voting for politicians. However, all the other ways of selecting which politicians run things have proven to result in dramatically worse outcomes on average.

Letting the wealthiest people select them has a particularly awful record because it goes on the longest.

Apathy? What in god's name makes you think anyone in America is apathetic about what's going on here right now?

We have to be reaching the point where the fringe on the Fox flag Youtube channels are monitoring the closed Facebook groups and at least positioning to be the first to go full anti-Trump if the Fox bubble cracks.
