there's a typo in paragraph 6, NYT. Sorry to nit pick but you're supposed to be the gold standard and whatnot

i mean to be fair DJT probably gave Putin the info directly, on one of his dozens of burner phones

I wonder if Chalamet will ever make the connection that he might've actually won an Oscar if he'd just kept his fucking mouth shut and didn't flagrantly disrespect his peers in the Fine Arts, for literally no other reason than he's an arrogant tone-deaf asshole. I doubt it. Dudes like him rarely do

That piece is so delightfully lacerating. Like…. Damn. I hope Noem follows her advice and goes the MTG route and claws back a shred of self respect

What’s Wrong with Pete Hegseth? Our secretary of defenseβ€”who insists you call him secretary of warβ€”is a deeply insecure man. We’ll be lucky to survive him.

I don’t know about this guy y’all www.esquire.com/news-politic...

Democrats may not be able to prevent Mullin's confirmation, but they can certainly turn his track record of offense and stupidity into two days of televised humiliation so spectacular that he is wounded in Trump's eyes from day 1. That is the job.

this particular rotting-flesh trajectory is very Death Becomes Her

willing to bet that during this demented muddle he actually didn't remember starting a war

omg don't even get me started on Miller. The difference being, that while I think Trump will likely pass on without suffering any sort of real accountability.... I'm fairly certain Miller is going to meet a gruesome, violent, and well-deserved end

someone should compile all of trumps recent quotes about killing, death, and whatnot. He seems oddly fixated on corpses. On creating death. Celebrating it. It gives him a gleeful little smile to talk about it. Whether in boats, or overseas in war, or on a street in MN. He has literal blood lust

The president plans to visit the funerals of these fallen soldiers to berate them and all of the remaining military β€œyou need to stop dying. You need to do your jobs properly and not die. If you die it means you hate America”

the lights are on but nobody is home. i'm pretty convinced that even as he reads those words on the teleprompter... he has no idea what he's saying. He doesn't know what he's started. He doesn't know why those soldiers died. If you asked him next week, the cost of his actions would not register

It’s been interesting to watch his journey from sobriety to relapse to full on psychosis

Yeah was just marinating yesterday about how every lyric of Lennon’s β€œImagine” is true and is basically instructions for how to live on Earth forever in peace. Simple solutions really but impossible because humans don’t love themselves enough

excuses will have to be made if he collapses into drooling spasms on live television and has to be carried away

i'm just saying his condition can, and will, get worse to the extent that nobody will be able to make excuses. i know people say "oh he has dementia now" and maybe so but i've seen real dementia up close and it's far worse and unmistakable
