It's kind of rich that an American president would criticize a British PM for being "late to the war."
But also, I thought it wasn't a "war"? π€

Imagineβ¦if they had only just believed Anita Hill.
No longer true, because today we have a government by and for those who pay the majority of bribes. So it's majority rule, in a sense, but not as any of the founders ever intended.
I just lie to myself that people used to age differently. That is the only way I can explain that I am somehow years older than Carroll O'Connor was when he played Archie Bunker. (He was 47.)
So according to the WSJ a US Senator conspired with another country to manipulate the US into starting a war, am I getting this right
The House, under Little Mikey Johnson, is actively avoiding doing its job - or as Rep Houlihan accurately describes it here, their Constitutional obligation.
If this doesn't break your heart, you don't have one.
The English language is funny sometimes. Like when it's possible for someone to be a giant dick, a monumental cock, or a complete bell-end, even if the subject of that description themselves has a tiny malformed (likely diseased) desiccated-mushroom-shaped micropenis.
I wonder sometimes whether our elected officials even are aware of the existence of the flag code.
(All the folks who hang doctored American flags off their pickup trucks either have not or don't give a shit.)

"Before... America was full of horrors. Women were getting raped, and killed every day, and nobody cared. And that was [the] country."
Could be the second part of Melania's quote, right?
But it's not.
It's the character Serena Joy, talking about the need to create Gilead (Handmaid's Tale S6E1)

Right. Another crusade, replicating what historians tell us were well-considered and effective conflicts...
(checks a book) oh that's right, millions of people died needlessly, they were a colossal waste that made the dark ages in western europe longer and darker.
We are led by morons.

We understand the assignment.
I am not religious in any way but can respect those who use their moral center as fuel to act in ways that make this world better. To lift the weight so our children might not have to. That is the best any of us can hope to achieve in this life.
I was thinking the exact same thing. Child rape - β , random arrests of people going about their business - β , spouting venomous lies - β grifting at a level thatβs hard to understand - β throwing the world into WW3 - β .
Quick math. That's an average of +13k/month in the past 12 months.
The previous 12 month period (Mar 24 to Feb 25) was an average of +89.3k/month and that's despite Trump's poor Jan and Feb 2025 numbers - the worst in the 10 years shown.
There is no universe in which these are good jobs numbers.
This of an example of why AI should not be used.
I understand the temptation to claim Noem's ouster as victory. It is not. She is being shuffled into another role with even less accountability, while an equally incompetent, sycophantic, and psychotic asshole replaces her.
Are they all out of a job? Are they on trial? If not, we're not done here.
So the fact that we bombed a girls elementary school, while likely using AI for targeting, is going to be a major headline story dominating American news coverage when exactly?
There is a frightening percentage of the right wing who salivate over the thought of using nuclear weapons "again." It feeds their need for power and dominance. It is a twisted view that discounts the deaths of millions that would result, all for their callous craving to be feared and "respected."
Decades of propaganda about "exceptionalism" have created a country that is self-absorbed, self-aggrandizing and self-destructive.
The US is now proving beyond argument it is unlike other countries, so I guess it finally has achieved being an outlier among nations, but as a pariah, not a leader.
The "savage" who has tortured, raped, and there is credible evidence of being a murderer or accessory to murder, is IN THE GODDAMNED WHITE HOUSE YOU NAZI PRICK.
Kegsbreath can go fuck himself.
I refuse to live in a christofascist mation.
I don't fucking care if it kills me at this point.
This cannot stand.
Thou shalt arrest Kristi Noem and put her in a detention center indefinitely so she can βawait processing.β
Gun owners must be responsible for their firearms. Know where they are, keep them secure. Know if they go missing or are stolen. And be held liable for harm if those conditions are not met!
At this point, it's worth speculating if there are any other governments left on Earth who do not have intelligence they can or are using against Trump.
Add in the leverage the non-state actors have (oligarchs and corps) and Trump's flailing and irrationality starts to make sense.
1/7 George Orwell wrote 1984 in 1949 as a warning about how gov't's destroy truth, erase history, & silence dissent. He imagined a dystopia so extreme it felt impossible. 75 years later, a leaked gov't database just described it almost word for word. #DV1 #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory #USDemocracy
And this is just the latest of many.

I found the Trump regime's hiring guidelines.
The most corrupt administration in the history of the United States.
Among the most corrupt regimes in all of human history.
Neither of the two statements above are hyperbole.
It could not be clearer that Trump does not in any way care about the lives or wellbeing of others. He is a malignant narcissist and the lives of servicemembers, the lives of children at school, the lives of Americans during a pandemic, or the life of a baby or a young girl, are meaningless to him.
