Architect. 1896 was not the zenith of American culture.

This is what you get with unchecked lies funneled through social media networks. So sad.

Funding USAID is great and all but I guess Senator Duckworth hasn’t noticed that Trump does not spend money he does not want to spend.

Lol. It’s not a tonal argument because RD used the word “tone”. He’s describing the character of the administration’s comments and policies - charitably.

Strange. If I went to my local market and they had open bags of shit in the aisles next to the good healthy food, I mightn’t shop there anymore.

I think the biggest problem with Democrats is that when they get on TV or appear in any forum that gives them a big chance to speak directly to voters, they talk about the problem with Democrats and not the problem with Republicans.

We simply are not getting the same INFLATION & RECESSION level of breathless coverage that we did in <checks notes> 2022-23 when Joe Biden was president.

You don’t think it might help if “American culture” valued those things as well? We need to take stock. Take a good long look in the mirror before we get out from under Trump, because if we don’t we’ll end up back with another aggrieved man-baby in no time.

This should apply to the Supreme Court as well. If they’re going to be taken care of for life, let it be a modest one.

They are, but culture continues to instruct us to be that way. You ever see a summer blockbuster about a guy who reasons his way to comity with another guy? Our pathetic lives are reflected back to us as zero sum action movies.

Watched Die Hard for the first time in 30 years yesterday. Noted that while it’s great fun, it’s not a Christmas movie. It’s a MAGA movie. Bruce Willis’ character is the proto MAGA man. Anti-feminist to his core, 2A nut; finds effeminate/euro men/ every authority figure both to blame and to kill.

I know Americans overly romanticize Europe but I still think moving to a little house on a canal in the Netherlands could solve like 82% of my problems

The Constitution is very straightforward on birthright citizenship. There's no ambiguity in the language, no other plausible interpretation. The fact that this is a public discussion at all, and that the Supreme Court is taking it up, is on its own anti-constitutional bullshit. Read the text👇

NYC: “I’m born here! Kings County Hospital! Suck my d*ck!” Trump’s ICE goons grabbing brown and black people. Bounty hunters. Racial profiling is all they do.

All the militarized police stuff has to go. No more "surplus" tanks/APCs from war zones in PD arsenals. I'd even argue that disclaimers should precede movies and TV shows that glamorize the use of police force.

I’ve read that roughly16-20 million Italian Americans. 8 million Italian Americans are currently in the GOP. The GOP belongs to Trump and Trump to Russia. I could therefore posit that 4-5 million are more loyal to Russia than the US.

I’m old enough to remember 9/11 & OBL, but aside from that - Afghanistan falls under the purview of the AUMF, especially back in 2010, when this incident took place. Additionally, it was an error in a war zone , and the USG apologized to the Afghani government for the incident.

This feels like a good time to note that I haven’t purchased fuel for my daily since 2023 when I got my first EV, a purchase that was subsidized by the US at the time. The fuel I haven’t used, plus the subsidy, have come out to over $10,000 to date, and every day I drive it just climbs higher.

Today the NYT story is framed with "Trump Calls Affordability a ‘Con Job." Followed by "President Trump is growing frustrated." There are facts about the economy. Who cares what trump says about affordability? That NYT thinks we should know that Trump is frustrated is lousy journalism.

Trump embraced Zohran Mamdani even after Mamdani called him a fascist. Why? Because Mamdani understands Trump only respects strength—and strength means taking away the voters who fuel his power. ICYMI @saletan.bsky.social breaks down the strategy: lnk.thebulwark.com/4iALUlB

What Mamdani Gets About Trump
When New York’s mayor-elect met with the authoritarian president, he didn’t waste time with denunciations. But he didn’t exactly hold back.
