Incredible, even by their debased standards

Trump’s War on Iran Could Screw Over US Farmers The Middle East supplies a huge amount of the world’s fertilizer. Conflict in the region has sent prices soaring ahead of the critical spring planting season.

there's a lot going on right now but did you know a massive amount of the world's fertilizer flows through the middle east, and did you know that that fertilizer needs to be shipped to the us *right now* for planting season, and uh did you know we are at war with iran

Yes they do

I would argue they knew exactly what they were doing, which was deliberately sabotaging needed public works programs by offering snake oil they never had any intention of delivering.

This is the Platonic ideal of a social media exchange, never again to be equaled or even attempted:

Trump: The United Kingdom, our once Great Ally, maybe the Greatest of them all, is finally giving serious thought to sending two aircraft carriers to the Middle East. That's OK, Prime Minister Starmer, we don't need them any longer — But we will remember. We don't need people that join Wars after we've already won! President DONALD J.

So if we've already won the war I guess the troops are coming home?

Dumbasses all around, since protest protested was a right wing anti-Muslim demo outside Muslim mayor's house.

Grifting beats working, I guess. You just have to have no principles at all, and the rest flows naturally.

I guess it's understandable that only the most depraved and awful people would want to join ICE.

Karoline Leavitt: It doesn't matter if Russia is helping Iran kill American troops.

What a breathtakingly twisted White House.

This guy should sign up to go fight in Iran.

It would be only fair to the reader to say frankly in advance that the attitude of any person toward this story will be distinctly influenced by his theories of the Negro race. If he believes that the Negro in America and in general is an average and ordinary human being, who under given environment develops like other human beings, then he will read this story and judge it by the facts adduced. If, however, he regards the Negro as a distinctly inferior creation, who can never successfully take part in modern civilization and whose emancipation and enfranchisement were gestures against nature, then he will need something more than the sort of facts that I have set down. But this latter person, I am not trying to convince. I am simply pointing out these two points of view, so obvious to Americans, and then without further ado, I am assuming the truth of the first. In fine, I am going to tell this story as though Negroes were ordinary human beings, realizing that this attitude will from the first seriously curtail my audience. W. E.

I'd forgotten how hard the preface to DuBois's "Black Reconstruction" (1934) went...and am saddened by how contemporary it still feels.

Declaring "Mission Accomplished" - that always works out well for US Presidents

This administration doesn't respect basic decency...or intellectual property rights. Good for @benstiller.redhour.com for standing up.

He wore a baseball cap.

And Witkoff likely believed it when Russia promised that they wouldn’t do it

That word no longer seems to have meaning when applied to Republican actions

in a way this is fascinating because in the family you hide this member from guests at dinner parties and the US is like buddy he's doing a daily off the cuff 30 min sesh with the press

Not sometimes. Not until the next update. Always. It's how the system fundamentally works. Which means there is no "fix."
