LOL that incredibly tortured NYT article trying to claim that Trump wasn't actually talking about nuking San Diego and LA is right up there with the "Elon Musk's politics are a mysterious enigma nobody will ever be able to comprehend" thing

the Vice President of the United States has gone on record citing this man as one of his biggest intellectual influences if you didn't know this, it's probably because for some reason literally no mainstream political media outlets think it's worth mentioning

They can't even be bothered to say "look, you can't overtly pay me for this, I can't be party to it, let's talk sometime face to face about how to get what you want". I'm as mad about their brazenness and shitty opsec as I am at the crime. It's a pretty easy crime to do in a way that looks clean!!

Mike Johnson wont be speaker on Jan 3rd past 12pm bc thats when the 119th Congress ends, so it wont be up to him. You'd think a 2 term senator would know the basics of how congress works, but 🤷‍♂️

Weird, when a handful of people showed up to the Columbia protest that the protestors didn't want to be around them, they formed a human chain to keep them out. Wild how that's never deployed in these kinds of situations.

Rubio called for "unapologetic pursuit of national power" just weeks after the US Ambassador to Greece (who got the job as a break-up present from the President's son) told Greek officials about overthrowing a country's government: "We can do that to any country we want. We can do it here."

I guess one thing I find this discourse frustrating around J6 specifically is that J6 is a literal textbook example of the limits of executive power, especially over other branches If the president can bully anyone into doing whatever then J6 would have worked!

Just learned some shocking and destabilizing information about Roy Orbison
The five musicians also bonded over a shared appreciation of the English comedy troupe Monty Python.[22] Harrison, who had worked with the members of Monty Python on various productions by his company HandMade Films since the late 1970s, particularly appreciated Orbison's gift for impersonation and his ability to recite entire sketches by the troupe.[23][24]

Some of the discrepancy btwn this and his approval is people telling themselves he’s a disaster but Harris would have been worse, which is absurd but spares them from having to do any self reflection on having made a terrible mistake for whatever particular reason applies

one of the ways the media shows which side they prefer, is which politicians they quote uncharitably out-of-context and which they clean up for even when what they actually say and do is offensive (the Biden story ran on the front page less than a week before the 24 election)

The key takeaway about this "meme" is that alliances along the lines of various bigotries (racism, misogyny, anti-semitism) are they key to understanding the issues facing society, not "class."
