If anything, they look more conservative than my grandparents, so maybe?

Reminds me of that old throwaway joke commonly used at roasts: "If you wanted a eulogy, you should have done something about it."

What Hegseth did today was inform an organization he’s unqualified to lead that (a) any area in which he believes he personally excels (e.g. physical fitness) is all that matters, and (b) any area in which he’s deficient (leadership, morality, ethics, record, experience, intelligence) is immaterial.

Pfizer "secured a three-year grace period from President Donald Trump’s promised tariffs on pharmaceuticals" and in return will "sell some drugs at a 50% average discount on a direct-to-consumer website called TrumpRx"

looks like state capitalism to me

Ti måneder etter at fylkesråden for kultur fra FrP måtte gå av på grunn av rasistiske og hatefulle uttalelser, foreslår høyresida han som ny fylkesvaraordfører.

Mattilsynet: Her blir sjølvdaud laks sortert som menneskemat Laks døydde i oppdrettsanlegget til Mowi. Så vart fisken sortert som menneskemat på slaktebåten.

En næring som "legger seg flat" post factum. Ikke veldig betryggende, og det føyer seg til listen over bransjens cowboypraksis. Konklusjon: mindre innkjøp av oppdrettsfisk framover for egen del.

WP, back off; you know he lied. Would I concider subscribing to a newspaper fallen from former grace due to subordination to the Orange autocrat, and lying about blatant dishonesty from the speaker of the house?

JD’s mom was not getting drugs from cartels, she was a nurse who was stealing painkillers from her patients.
Her patients suffered and she got high.
As a medical professional, I will tell you the lowest life form is someone who steals drugs from their patients.
Zero sympathy for JD or his mom.

Malignt narcissism coupled with deferent, yet desinformed masses and antidemocratic media caused the disaster that evolved in Europe last century. USA is in for hard times, the rest of the world will be severely affected.

Det jeg merker godt i denne harangen fra fortids-Listhaug er hvor påfallende lik måten de snakket om homofile da er måten de snakker om transpersoner nå.

Det er langt mindre stuereint å angripe homofiles rettigheter i dag, 17 år senere. La oss sørge for at det samme skjer for transpersoner.

53 cities in Louisiana, Mississippi, Ohio, South Carolina, Tennessee and West Virginia had higher crime rates than D.C. in 2024. Despite this, these states deployed their own National Guard troops to help address D.C.'s newly declared "crime emergency."

Remembering today when pro-GOP media erupted with outrage over Kamala Harris' warning that Trump had plans to militarize the national guard and deploy them on the streets of US cities. Indeed, he had such plans. And now he's implementing them.
