This is an accidentally honest answer. What she's saying in code is:
"The President is a misogynist, petulant bully. You've all seen him be a misogynist, petulant bully. And lots of voters out there are also misogynist or petulant or bullies and that's why they like him."

The DOJ Subpoenaed Patient Info From a Gender-Affirming Care Clinic. It Fought Back. A Washington judge quashed the Trump administration's attempt to subpoena patient information from the telehealth practice QueerDocβ€”but the fight may not be over.

What do we say when the government comes asking for data it's not entitled to? Fuck you, make me.

New, by me: Protei, a Russian-founded telecoms provider and a supplier of surveillance and web monitoring technologies, was breached, its website defaced, and its servers raided.

"Another DPI/SORM provider bites the dust," read the company's defaced website.

Not that dissimilar from Trump eliminating his own tariffs in an attempt to stem price increases he caused with tariffs.

Richard Hanania & @Richa...1d X To call being attracted to 17 year-olds pedophilia is basically calling all men pedophiles.
It's like saying all white people are racist on account of the society they were born into.
Reject all forms of bigotry.

but like, that's why we moved to a house with a fence, and why we leash walk them. and why we don't let the kids next door pet them without their parents permission. and why we put a lock on our gates because Mowgli got out ONCE.

these people also have a rotweiller, but we haven't seen it in a while. no fence, they're never on leashes.

i'm sure they're nice dogs, but these 2 breeds could easily kill a child. and i say that as the owner of 2 pits. who could also kill a child (okay maybe not River, let's be honest).

Washington Post headline reads: "Trump repeals tariffs on some foods as Americans face high grocery prices

The president is rolling back import levies on a host of agricultural goods after administration officials signaled coming changes aimed at addressing consumer complaints about high food costs."

Washington Post headline reads: "Trump repeals tariffs on some foods as Americans face high grocery prices The president is rolling back import levies on a host of agricultural goods after administration officials signaled coming changes aimed at addressing consumer complaints about high food costs."

if we take it to be true that the tariffs are aimed at getting americans to buy US-made products, then what's the point of rolling them back when they become painful? the entire point is to cause financial pain to change consumer behavior. what's the strategy here?
