He's imagining doing this to an employee or subordinate, someone who can't respond in kind. He doesn't do so well in roast battles with people he can't fire.

Whiplash inducing pivot on what is generating disgust on the skyline today. Fierce argument over which films are worthy of this list is infinitely preferable to total consensus on what is the grossest sex poem ever.

Also to non-lawyers: be wary of any β€œgetting off on a technicality” BS you may hear from MAGAs. This is basic due process, the barest minimum to protect against exactly the kind of corruption Trump is pushing.

Trump/MAGA exploded the myth that the GOP was the party of the morally righteous, so of course morality doesn't matter anymore.

The public want climate action - are the government doing enough? There is clear evidence that the public expect the Government to act and to do more to mitigate climate change – this applies to adaptation as much as it does to transitioning to net zero.

Once again your philosophy comes down to "politicians should be led by polls except where they don't align with my personal views."

The press wouldn't stand up for one of their own against him, so don't have any illusions about what "too far" might mean for them.

Nothing makes clearer the limitations of the Miranda warnings than when you see someone who just needs to STFU but can’t help himself.

The schism is the same as it's always been: the Birchers vs. the Buckleys (loud dipshit racists vs. polite intellectual racists). The reason they are at a public breaking point is because the latter kept the former placated but out of major positions of power, and they've now lost that control.

That’s the problem, we don’t know their methods. It’s not clear whether they reached out to her or they’re just reviewing the messages from the House. So they leave the impression they rushed this piece possibly without doing some basic due diligence. Bad form, bad example from an influential pub.

OMG the way this reads they don’t seem to have gotten her permission or even spoke to this woman before IDing her. And it’s not at all clear they confirmed it was her, they just appear to have used context clues.

What in the holy fat fuck is happening???

β€œAll but gone” except for the 1 of 2 major political parties currently in charge of all 3 branches of government working overtime to protect it because one of the most high profile perpetrators is their guy and and the most powerful person in the world.

And that fascism doesn’t jump from 0-100%. It’s called the authoritarian creep for a reason.

That we’ve had some push and pull over the past 250 years does speak to the uniqueness of the American institution, but it doesn’t change the fact that we’ve reached another breaking point akin to 1860.

Yes and there’s a similar lack of understanding of the bigotry you can sometimes find in immigrant communities.

It’s also a huge challenge to message around these issues when a dispositive number of voters operate on vibes.
