And there is always roadkill!

Kinda surprised that he didn’t mention roadkill as another way of reducing one’s grocery bills

Successful psychopaths are very good at imitating normal emotional responses, which they learn over decades of observing normal people. But when facing a novel situation, they have no such learning to rely on, and their jarringly cold responses reveal their hollow interiors.

Rubio Bypasses Congress to Send Israel $4 Billion in Arms

Rubio declares an emergency to bypass Congress to send $4 bn of arms to Israel. The possible orders include more than 35,000 bombs that are 2,000 lbs each—which US military officers say are unsuitable for urban combat—but which are responsible for the lion's share of civilian casualties in Gaza.

Pretty damned lame for a so-called superpower. Maybe Hegseth can arrange push-up contests with the Chinese.

"What are you talking about?! They did 9/11 and killed Americans." Anna Paulina Luna probably.🤷‍♀️

Absolutely incredible. Weeks of war without any vote in Congress. And the current regime may largely be left in place. This isn't just a war of choice. It's a vanity war. If this is allowed to stand, our country is in real trouble.

This is what happens when you effectively have no ethical rules at the top of government — virtually limitless opportunities for insider profiteering.

It’s Emperor Palpatine in a baseball cap.

Iran was not going to attack the USA. There was no imminent threat. They will not even bother to prove one, because what are you going to do about it?

Fucking ghouls

This is the company that Substack chose to partnership with.

Just resharing this.

Morphing into Palpatine

Transpose this 1970 campaign speech by antisemitic white supremacist Asa Carter into the voice of JD Vance or Elon Musk or Matt Walsh and tell me if you could tell the difference.

They went to war with Iran (which nobody in America was asking for) so they could conjure an excuse to allow ICE to keep murdering Americans and teargassing schools here at home with impunity (which nobody in America was asking for).

I find it abhorrent when Americans only focus on American lives lost. Over 100 schoolgirls were killed when a missile hit their school in southern Iran.

The entire premise of America is that all people are created equal. When we ignore that key tenet, Americans lose all moral standing.

They truly are. No sane person would be able to come up with this stuff.

Screenshot from NPR article: Hegseth made the announcement in a video posted to X, framing it as an ultimatum to Scouting to conform to the Trump administration's anti-DEI agenda. He detailed his many criticisms of the group, saying Scouts had "lost their way" by changing the organization's name and "watering down" what he called "the focus on God as the ruler of the universe."

We need to have a serious conversation about how deranged Hegseth and the rest of this administration are.

Demanding that the Scouts “focus on God as the ruler of the universe” is not compatible with democracy or freedom of religion.

This is right. And people hate to hear it, but Joe Biden’s single most important task was to Trump-proof the US.

His task was to destroy the Republican Party to punish them for Trump, salt the earth over them, and implement big structural reforms to stop future R minority extremism.
And he failed.

Modern tyranny is terror management.

1/9. In 2020 Iran did try to interfere with the presidential election.

It’s insane this is legal. People around Trump are profiting off war and death. I’m introducing legislation ASAP to ban this.

THIS.
