If Trump and Musk succeed in putting a knife into the ribs of Ukraine, it will be a permanent stain on the U.S. and a reminder that no country should ever trust us again.

This is true. In 2016, I got into an argument with a gay man on a menswear forum. I've since made it my mission to make every man dress gay, thereby destroying his ability to tell who is actually gay and, ultimately, his chances of finding love. I built my social media following to achieve that goal
Someone on Twitter writes to me: "People should follow your advise if they want to look gay."

(🚨) PROOF EXCLUSIVE: A Dozen Ways Trump Is Rigging the Midterms This isn’t a listicle. It’s an exhaustive, sourced report on the most under-attack election cycle in American history. Whatever the result in November—and we should all vote for the one we want—Trump *has* criminally rigged the system.

PROOF EXCLUSIVE: A Dozen Ways Trump Is Rigging the Midterms
Everyone should vote. Democrats may do well. But neither of those facts alters the reality of what the 2026 midterms are: a rigged event under assault by a fascist, his regime, and his foreign allies.
