He keeps bragging about getting a perfect cognitive test score 😅. That’s like bragging you can successfully tie your own shoes. Congratulations…or something?!

Not surprising. On nights like tonight I can’t help but remember this—which feels like 30 years ago—but was only 8 months ago. Trump to Chief Justice Roberts after a pseudo-state of the union address: “Thank you again, thank you again, won’t forget” with a nice pat on the shoulder. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Excerpt from Landon’s Newsletter “Left Standing”: 

“It's pretty clear that these men were helpless while they cling to their shipwreck, which gave the US exactly one legal obligation: rescue them and put them on trial in a court of law for their crimes.

We murdered them instead.

The Trump administration wants to call this an
"armed conflict" against narco-terrorists. They want to frame it like we're at war. Okay. Even if we accept that—which we certainly don't—even in actual war against actual enemies in an actual declared conflict—you still can't target people who are wounded, shipwrecked, or defenseless.
That's what separates war from extermination.
That's the entire point of the Geneva Conventions.”

The midterms are going to be interesting. I know it’s easy for us to wonder how ppl could vote in favor of the BS happening around us, but it’s SO IMPORTANT that WE remember that WE are the outliers. On 🦋 talking politics. “Normies” aren’t. So a swing like TN7 should inspire you to keep fighting.

It's okay for some campaign promises to be about optics rather than policy. "We're going to bulldoze his monument to himself on Day One and rebuild the East Wing" would be a very good one for 2028.

The worst thing Democratic lawmakers can do to their Republican counterparts is make the lives of Republican voters better. They don’t want their lives to be better. You can’t win elections if the lives of people are getting better and you don’t have anyone to blame for why it sucks.
Reddit post and comment. 

Post: 'Deeply demoralizing': how Trump derailed coal country's clean-energy revival. Biden earmarked billions for former coal communities in Appalachia - and his successor came and took it away

Comment: The people who love here are too stupid to put two and two together. They'll blame Democrats, continue to vote against their better interests and bitch about it. I am so glad I'm leaving in January.

I don't know if these men were drug traffickers. You don't know either. Pete Hegseth sure doesn't know. Neither does Donald Trump. And that's exactly why this matters. Just because they say so, doesn’t make it so. Proof or GTFO.

Absolutely right. And let’s be honest about the timing: every time accountability starts closing in on Trump: Epstein files, witnesses, reporting…suddenly there’s a brand-new “crisis” he manufactures ...

screenshot of the opening paragraphs of the quote-skeeted article, with the final sentence highlighted. text reads:

When news broke last September about Olivia Nuzzi’s alleged relationship with Robert F. Kennedy Jr., my first instinct—within minutes, actually—was sympathy. I sent her a DM: “You’ll get through this.” She responded with a heart.

(The fact that I’m opening a column about media narcissism with my own DM slide should tell you everything about how far gone we all are. But I promise this is going somewhere.)

I meant it. I’d known Nuzzi professionally for years—never close friends, but friendly enough through the White House Correspondents’ Dinner circuit and occasional professional courtesies. She’d always been generous with contacts and advice. More importantly, she was, without question, one of the best political writers of her generation.meme of Thor squinting and squinching up his face, from the scene in Ragnarok where he asks "Is he though?"
