If Trump is awarded the peace prize it be forever debased and will be made meaningless.

Has anyone ever asked this man to explain what the is wrong with being Palestinian? Seems like a simple follow up question. bsky.app/profile/atru...

So publicly, obviously, and badly wanting an honour such as this, and similarly, the presidency, should automatically disqualify you.

For the love of pete, would someone finally show him what it’s actually like in Portland. He has no idea.

One reason might be that you continue to oversee extrajudicial executions in the international waters of the Caribbean.

Yup. The people who should earn a fortune from the years I have devoted to training and research are people who run AI companies, not me.

Pity the poor, downtrodden billionaires! No way can they rake in enough money from defence contracts, government contracts, and AI porn to compensate people they steal from. Why should I profit from my own years of training and research? It's only fair that tech companies profit from it.

Wow 👇

Love some of the names! They don't make names they way they used to. Ab and Pud and D'arcy McGee...

I despise it.

Yes, agreed, it was semi-rhetorical, and out of disgust that the Republican members of the committee don't require proper decorum.

Why is her microphone even on while Shiff is speaking? It's ridiculous.

Can't she be held in contempt of Congress? Isn't there some censure or penalty to be applied for such disrespect and obstruction and general bad behaviour?

I know it's childish but I would have loved for the response to be: "And I wish you loved the constitution and the rule of law as much as you love Trump."

The pragmatic "How to Handle Trump" manual has been passed around by all the world leaders. "Stroke the narcissist's ego vigorously" is in bold on page one.

Anyone who is against fascists and fascism is antifa. Presumably if you are against antifa, as this administration so rabidly is, you are for fascists and fascism.

Just as a reminder, Bondi’s origin story in Trump world is that she said she was going to investigate Trump University, Trump sent her a $25K check and the investigation disappeared. She later became Trump’s personal defense lawyer. So yeah, don’t challenge her integrity.

This is a @brianbeutler.bsky.social point, I think, but Garland was careful to a fault not to coordinate w Biden, not to jump on Trump cases too fast, etc - even appointed special counsel to probe Hunter.

His reward: Republicans just insisting Biden/Garland coordinated and targeted their enemies.

About 1 in 3 US Nobel prize winners are immigrants.
About 1 in 4 were government employees at some point.
About 44% of all Nobel prize winners were educated in US higher education.
As Trump demands a Nobel prize, he is destroying the means by which America came to dominate the prizes.

Of course they have gas masks! ICE has shown no compunction about gassing citizens and peaceful protesters. What excuse does ICE have for concealing their identities?

She just bubbles over with bile and hate and contempt. You get the sense that she is a truly miserable person and probably a misery to be around.

He thinks he's the Queen of Versailles

These millionaires and billionaires want to squeeze every last penny out of ill or infirm wage slaves, to pay for tax cuts to the 1%, to pay for the gilded ballrooms, to pay for the bailout of Argentina. It's sick.

It's doubly amusing because they seem to be hell bent on destroying and eliminating as many jobs as possible, both public and private sector, as the jobs reports attest.

Not to mention that he has publicly said 20+ times that he will reduce drug prices by 1500% or more. Should anyone with such a poor grasp of basic mathematics be trusted to make any policy decisions, economic or otherwise? I'm mystified as to why no journos or Democrats have questioned him on this

Or at least ask one of the minion clones grinning idiotically behind him.

Why will no-one ask him how a 1500% reduction will actually cash out?!

You can sense his yearning to see a soldier knock the hell out of someone. A penchant for violence is unfortunate in someone so desperate to be awarded the Nobel peace prize.

Their main evidence that Chicago and Portland and other cities are war zones worse than anything seen in Afghanistan or Iraq seems to be a few angry spitters.
