Trump nominated a legit white nationalist to a top post at the State Department. I asked him some basic questions about his belief in the “erasure of white culture”. Watch this embarrassing, fumbling answer. Like he has never before been asked to explain his views.

This is just unconscionable man

In the blanket incident, Noem had to switch planes after a maintenance issue was discovered, but her blanket wasn't moved to the second plane, according to the people familiar with the incident. The Coast Guard pilot was initially fired and told to take a commercial flight home when they reached their destination. They eventually reinstated the pilot because no one else was available to fly them home.

The details of the Kristi Noem blanket incident are just fucking perfect

Generations, man. What are they

You need to understand that for every store that gets out, there are easily 5 more. There are segments of la frontera that are known as death valleys because of the difficulty of maintaining hydration and CBP‘s institutionalized culture of destroying water sources left behind by crossers & activists

Companies and influencers are desperately racing to sell expensive pop-tarts with the same amount of protein as like four almonds, MAHA

We're all supposed to believe that AI is going to replace women when the same people can't design something that understands I will never want to finish the last three minutes of a two year old podcast episode, and so, it's rude to keep linking it under "jump back in", fuk

~*~*~ Trump's Friday Funnies ~*~*~

I remember in the first term when I was all fired up about the likely possibility that Trump and/or his associates were gaming the VIX (volatility index - it goes up when big traders feel uncertain about the future). Such corruption seems to quaint now

I feel like Emma Stone and Nathan Fielder something like this in The Curse

Can we simply eat Claude?

After von Osten died in 1909, Hans was acquired by several owners. He was then drafted into World War I as a military horse and "killed in action in 1916 or was consumed by hungry soldiers".[4]

Aw :(

Cardi B called out ICE at her show last night: “Bitch, if ICE come in here we’re gonna jump they asses. Bitch, I got some bear mace in the back. They ain’t taking my fans, bitch”

Come on now Marge

Headline showing Catherine O'Hara dying from, in part, rectal cancer

Headline showing that James Van Der Beek died from colorectal cancer

There is a very strong chance that many of the current userbase of this app will die from colorectal cancer. For those under 50, it's the only cancer that has increased incidence over the last decade.

Our government has cancelled all relevant research.

That being said definitely don't go, they should all save their nostrils and their dignity

Disruptive SOTU audience protests never seem to be a good look. It's an unnecessary battle that the audience has no choice but to lose, and they will inevitably appear to the neutral party (conceptual; nonexistent) to be literally and figuratively inferior to POTUS

And so when a leader has such a poor read on the zeitgeist that they don't see that obvious fact, it's somehow even more frustrating.

It reveals that they can't even be bothered to understand the basics about the experiences of the people they lead.

Not, like, understanding racism, just.. the news

~2020 was the best time for "accidental"/complicit racists to give a mea culpa. We'll probably never see an environment where it's easier for a leader to apologize in good faith to a receptive audience & be candid about their own experiences that led them to that point

Idaho families sue over immigration raid that swept up hundreds, including U.S. citizens — NBC News About 400 people, including children and U.S. citizens, were detained for four hours while they were denied food and water in the raid, according to the lawsuit.

More than 400 people, including hundreds of citizens, were “sorted” at gun point into racial and ethnic groups by 200 ICE agents who fired flash-bang grenades into cars with people inside, pointed guns at children & demanded their zip tied parents not comfort them. apple.news/Ausdx6kWtT0e...

So, to wrap up today's insanity:

President Trump, who is deeply implicated in a pedophilia scandal involving his best friend, the sex trafficker, sent Attorney General Bondi -- who only has that job because Trump's first choice was also implicated in a separate pedophilia scandal -- to the House...

This is the aftermath of an ICE kidnapping a few blocks from my home in St. Paul—an hour ago. A quiet street full of broken glass and at least three wrecked cars. The target of the kidnapping was taken away by ambulance. He was on a stretcher and covered by a sheet, though a cop said he was alive.

Trump claimed the power to unleash a tariff war by declaring a “national emergency.” This is clearly a false predicate.

The tariff power lies with Congress per the Constitution. Trump’s invocation of an “emergency” in order to punish countries whose leaders don’t grovel is utterly ridiculous.

Get in losers we’re doing central planning without the planning

Burgum: "CO2 was never a pollutant. When we breathe, we emit CO2. Plants need CO2 to survive and grow. They thrive with more CO2. So the whole endangerment thing opens up an opportunity for the revival of clean, beautiful, American coal."

A reminder that Witkoff is a real estate guy with no prior diplomatic experience.

Israel used weapons in Gaza that made thousands of Palestinians evaporate US-made thermal weapons burning at 3,500C caused 2,842 people to "evaporate" in Gaza, Al Jazeera investigation finds.

“Four of my children just evaporated,” Badran said, holding back tears. “I looked for them a million times. Not a piece was left. Where did they go?”

There are no words to adequately describe the evil here.

No one in the media will ever, ever point out that the factory construction boom kicked off in 2022 and has peaked and plateaued since.
