Trump is a bull in a china shop. But someone let it into the shop. Another fed it. Another started charging tickets to watch it, profiting handsomely. Another gave it copious amounts of cocaine. And too many cheered it on as it shit on the floor, broke everything in sight, and gored its friends.

An absolute betrayal. To Ukraine, and America's better angels. In another age this would be an impeachable offense. One of many. That tells you just how much Republicans in Congress loath JD Vance and fear Trump.

I'm only surprised it's not PPV on Trump TV. One of the mythical adults-in-the-room must be holding them back.

I'm going to play the devil's psychiatrist here: He has dementia and is conflating nuclear weapons (very bad) with diesel prices (bad, but better than nukes), and "California Democrat" fuel taxes (communists, they deserve it). Pull the 25th ripcord and you get Vance though... 🤔🤦🏼‍♂️

What a perverse reimagining of America's past, and The Founders™️ intent, to lay the groundwork for a future they will only ever achieve through the quite tyranny of election interference and congressional skullduggery.

Jack Smith: "History teaches that the rule of law is rarely destroyed all at once. It's often weakened by attacks on the institutions and the public servants sworn to uphold it. Since January 2025, we have witnessed precisely such an effort."

How two Ukrainian children, taken to Russia, fought their way back home

Beaten down and taught to hate their kin, two youth plotted their escape. But freedom is not the end of their story

I am convinced that Putin has had kompromat on Trump for some time. Boilerplate greed and corruption simple doesn't explain Trump's deference to Putin at every critical turn.

There's that. But there's also more production/content control and, in some rare cases, better access to the monetization stream. Unless you're prime-time on a major, this is a big deal.

Yes, the price of gasoline is rising on a daily basis. But the prices of $TRUMP and $MELANIA cryptocurrencies are down 97% from their peaks. Inflation is a matter of perspective.

Only the willfully blind can believe that handing 🇺🇦 towns to russia will bring peace. It'll usher in WWIII, make its architects complicit in the russian atrocities that follow, repeat the same disastrous policy that got us here. Doing the same thing and expecting a different result is insanity.

It is bullshit. Texas has an abundance of it, and politicians have never been in short supply. Trans-in-sport was always a trap from the beginning (no thanks to FOX). So it's traps all around. The RW might be thrilled by JT's caveats here -- as you are rightfully furious -- but I see it differently

A tough call parents that day didn't get to make. I might have been too young to watch Schindler's List. But it made an impression. On the other hand there's the dad who brought his 4 and 6yo to see Passion Of The Christ in theatre... "Stop crying and watch! You look! See what they did to him!!" 🤦🏼‍♂️

He needs his cult off the couch for this election (not JD's mind you, it's busy). $5K? Might as well be $10K. It's never going to be delivered. But cults will always find a reason to believe their leader. The dyes in those cheap MAGA caps run when it rains, through the blood-brain barrier.

Having lost their arguments against homosexuality in the court of public opinion, trans is low hanging fruit because too many dumb parents think their kid is going to be deprived of a gold medal they were never going to get in the first place.

I'll dig up the details when I get back later, but we had a rogue pilot take some tourists up in one. Broke every rule trying his best to be Fred North. People on the ground were phoning it in. Did not end well. Ditched along the lakeshore. Everyone survived (with injuries), but he fled the scene.

🤔 R22/44's are pretty common around here. Wineries use them to monitor their vineyards scattered throughout the valley. I cut through one vineyard all the time and getting sandblasted is just rude, but it's their LZ and who has 20s for it to clear. Always wanted to catch a lift on one. Maybe not?

One of the things that sustained GWOT was the licence that pop culture provided. The only alternative was another 9/11. It's right behind that wall. And pop culture was glad to have it. It sold a lot of movie tickets, games, books, coffee, and merch...
