i’m just gonna start responding all cunty like this at work & if anyone asks i’ll just say it’s presidential of me
Straightforward case of where the interests of journalists and the public do not align. Yes, Trump is accessible. And journalists like him for that. But he is also a terrible President. Doing impromptu pressers does not make him better at the job, and has Trump shows, does not increase transparency.
The media gaslights us every time it doesn't react to this kind of thing the way they would if a Democrat said it.
Sexual assault is a normalised part of male homosociality, and sexually charged violence against the least masculine or lowest status people in all-male groups and spaces is part of how men teach each other to uphold rape culture.
All of this incredibly obvious and infuriating welfare fraud happened under the first Trump administration and I don't recall them ever threatening to block funding to the state of Mississippi as a result.
Vast concentrations of wealth have sometimes - but not always - generated political pushback. In some cases, the very wealthy tolerated higher taxes or committed to philanthropy to offset populist dissent.
Now they pretend to be the populists, and keep the money. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/14/b...
Existence of Mamdani in the media criticism discourse is so useful because it demonstrates what the media could be doing to Trump if they ACTUALLY thought that he was an aberrant threat to our Republic. Not that you need to do this for Trump but: You can just write negative stories based on nothing!
I don’t think this shit will work but i never want to hear about free speech from any trumpers or anti anti trumpers ever again, fuck off forever bsky.app/profile/cram...
Wait til they hear that Trump has been photographed with Epstein. I'm sure once they hear that they'll immediately call him a pedophile, right?
I am not exaggerating
The thesis of this article is that "opposition to Israel is central to Mamdani's worldview" and the evidence is that he posted a single photo with Mahmoud Khalil
Watching Politico get told they're sanewashing shit by the guy they're sanewashing is just excellent. Media cooked. Getting dunked on by the people they're protecting. We are in the post-dignity era of the press.
Congrats again to Jake Tapper & Alex Thompson. Total 🦗 now. Two wildly different standards applied to two wildly different parties & presidents.
Love that the US president is an open eugenicist.
Congressional Democrats pushed President Biden into retirement because he seemed old
As @nytimes.com reported, roughly 2.3 million people live within two miles of these facilities, and will face increased risk of cancer because of Trump and Zeldin's determination to give handouts to industrial polluters.
We're tracking material harms of weakening environmental protections below ↓
The dumbest timeline never fails to deliver.
nobody is blackmailing Lindsey Graham. No one is blackmailing Glenn Greenwald. No one is blackmailing Donald Trump.
These people are all doing evil things and saying evil shit *because they are evil and want to do evil things.* 1
I lost my job, my kids have measles, and gas is six dollars a gallon. But at least now they’re not tearing down a statue of a Confederate general that I’ve never heard of in a city that I’ve never been to.
Every media outlet in the country should be loudly calling for Tuberville's immediate impeachment or resignation.
they just got a sweetheart slap-on-the-wrist settlement from the Trump administration. Everyone in the media knew that "corporations get away with ripping off Americans" was one of the major stakes of the 2024 election and intentionally misled us into thinking it was "Trump low prices" instead
These fucking people. We gotta make the next batch of assholes that come along wanting to do stuff like this ponder the consequences.
Every one of our tech overlords has their own variant of psychosis. Karp's brain is a 5-pound bag of cooked spaghetti with a bunch of lit firecrackers in it.
It is interesting to me* how this total military, geopolitical, & economic omnishambles is not being covered in the press with remotely the same fierce EPIC DISASTROUS FAILURE urgency that Joe Biden’s not 100% surgically clean withdrawal from 🇦🇫 was covered 🤔
[*It is not remotely interesting to me]
I guess I’m not on IR Bluesky cause I haven’t seen anyone discussing the nuclear prospects of Iran once all of this is over. How do even the moderates in Iran not want proliferation? Doesn’t this whole thing prove they need nukes as a deterrent? Idk maybe I’m just not up on the proliferation lit.
For those of us too cowardly to do cocaine.
Fetterman 2.0 is racking up the endorsements I see. 🤦♂️
The FBI thinks you are fucking stupid. Iran has zero capability to cross the Pacific and sea-launch a drone attack on California. This is too fucking dumb for me to comment on further.
If he doesn't like the fact that anyone can be American he's free to move somewhere else! bsky.app/profile/coop...
