Is this because people hated his movie Him so he's lashing out or?

First tariffs, now this- Congress smiling and nodding along to a system of government where one senile halfwit makes unilateral decisions. Historic embarrassment for all involved

This has worked on me exactly once, and it was a band saying that they were like mid 00s metal core in the style of Misery Signals and it was actually a very good description of their sound, so I went and listened to the song.

And yet I cant name them now

Almost 80 million people wanted more of what he brought, after how bad it was, after an insurrection. You cant repair that. That isnt worth empathy.

Donald Trump was president from January 2017 until Rudy Gobert touched a microphone at a Utah Jazz game in mid-March 2020 according to Republicans

I have no hot takes.

Hot takes are part of how we got here. It's that little domino/big domino meme where the small one is Cold Pizza on ESPN became First Take and the big one is America falls into open, enthusiastic fascism

All my takes are boring and I just want living wages and healthcare

- Abortions fully covered by insurance
- in house Starbucks are fully unionized
- Target employees unionized
- free marriage licensing during Pride month to any lgbtq+ couples complete with discount on their registry

List is still a work in progress

they really might have ridden the anti-woke train all the way to bankruptcy court, an all time brand fuckup that should be taught as a cautionary tale in business school for decades

Why are we supposed to show empathy to people who were suckered, multiple times, by a guy who's entire career has been understood he was able to make by suckering people?

It's almost like they might not have actually been suckered and are just bad people who agree with the worst things he does!

My empathy is reserved for those who deserve it. The rest get rage. I don't know what else to do when everything everyday is just wave after wave of crimes and depravity that any one thing in another time would've ended this presidency. There's nothing left in me to give anyone who voted for this 3x

"Why is it always the poor helping the poor" lady you are SO CLOSE TO GETTING IT AND YET YOU VOTED FOR THIS FUCKING FREAK and now you only made it worse and harder for you and anyone in the same scenario. Either get yourself informed with the free sources at your disposal like others, or stop crying

This was how I felt about that lady crying to the news about how hard it was for her to live now. There has not ever been any tangible thing to make you believe Trump would help anyone not already wealthy. You have all the info in the world at your hands and you choose ignorance. I cant feel bad!

it says a lot about us, none of it good, that we chose a leader with not a single redeeming quality: stupid? yup. corrupt? absolutely. dishonest? to his core. violent? maybe the most violent ever. any ability to empathize with people? none. baseline level of regard for human life? not even a skosh.

The amount of rumors or outright bullshit that never happened that he puts into all of the projects he does based on real things makes the whole thing pointless to even engage in. If you cant make the core history and it's facts entertaining than either it just isnt or you're bad at it!

That Ed Gein show was one of the most ham fisted ridiculous things I've ever watched. I didnt even watch the last episode and I was mad at myself for watching as long as I did

ugh there's this guy on our news network who won't stop lying. i dunno, he just showed up when we started giving him checks every other week. no, don't go out there and contradict him, this is the news, do you wanna just hide or something?

30 years ago Chuck Palahniuk’s Fight Club accurately predicted that men under late capitalism, empty consumers who had come to think of themselves as β€œthe middle children of history” with no great wars to fight, would eventually prank and shitpost their way into fascism.

That statue, which was cast back in 1961, was modeled on 1950s Texas Rangers – as in the law enforcement Texas Rangers – Captain Jay Banks. Since it's unveiling 65 years ago it has spent most of its life at Love Field in Dallas. But then in 2020 it was removed and placed in storage. Why? Because Captain Jay Banks was a racist cop who made it his mission to stop schools from integrating.

This is an excerpt from the 2020 book, Cult of Glory: The Bold and Brutal History of the Texas Rangers by Doug Swanson, which describes' Banks' role in efforts to keep schools in Texas racially segregated in defiance of the United States Supreme Court's 1954 decision, Brown v. Board of Education:

Then there is the form and face of the statue itself. This dates to 1956, when the NAACP, backed with a court order, attempted to integrate the high school in Mansfield, about 30 miles southwest of Dallas. White residents erupted in fury, so Gov. Allan Shivers dispatched the Rangers. But unlike state police in other Southern racial hotspots, the Rangers in Mansfield did not escort black students past howling mobs of white supremacists. They had been sent instead to keep the black children out of a white school.

The commanding Ranger on the scene was Sgt. E.J. β€œJay” Banks. A wire service photo showed him casually leaning against a tree outside Mansfield High. To his left, above the school’s entrance, was a dummy in blackface, hanging from a noose. Nearby a white mob had assembled. Some carried signs that threatened death for anyone attempting to integrate the school. Banks saw no need to remove the effigy or disperse the mob. β€œThey were just β€˜salt of the earth’ citizens,” he later wrote. β€œThey were concerned because they were convinced that someone was trying to interfere with their way of life.” Blacks were so intimidated that none attempted to enroll at Mansfield.
Several days later, Gov. Shivers ordered Banks and a few other Rangers to Northeast Texas, because African-Americans wished to take classes at all-white Texarkana Junior College, a public institution. Again the Rangers’ job was to stop black students from enrolling.
As at Mansfield, a mob of white men gathered outside the school. An 18-year-old woman and a 17-year-old boy, both black, arrived by cab and began to walk toward the college. The mob blocked their path. Some surrounded the 17-year-old and kicked him, while others threw gravel. The Rangers watched it happen and did nothing except threaten to arrest the two students.    
That wire service photo of Banks in front of the school with the Black person hung in effigy can be seen at the top of today's newsletter.

The statue was removed from public view in 2020 in the wake of that book about the Rangers being published. This occurred at the same time that statues of Confederates, Klansmen, racists, and segregationists were removed all over the country following the murder of George Floyd. But now the Texas Rangers Baseball Club, knowing full well the history of the statue, its subject, and its removal, and knowing that multiple municipal institutions decided it was inappropriate for public display, is happy to put that statue up in a public concourse at a major league baseball stadium.

When I learned of this yesterday afternoon I contacted Major League Baseball and asked the following questions:

Is Major League Baseball aware of the history of the "One Riot, One Ranger" statue and its subject, Jay Banks?
Is Major League Baseball aware that Love Field and the City of Dallas removed the statue and put it in storage in 2020 after Banks' involvement in attempting to keep schools segregated in the 1950s came to light?
Does Major League Baseball condone one of its Clubs erecting a previously-removed statue of a staunch segregationist at its ballpark?; and
Does Major League Baseball have any comment regarding the discomfort that will be felt by Black fans when confronted with the statue of a segregationist at Globe Life Field? 
I did not receive a response. I'm going to assume that the league's silence on this means that it wholly condones the Rangers putting up the "One Riot, One Ranger" statue despite its sordid and extraordinarily well-reported history.

Yesterday the Texas Rangers erected a statue of a segregationist cop at Globe Life Field. A statue that was removed from public property in 2020 because of its racist history. @mlb.com has refused to comment. www.cupofcoffeenews.com/cup-of-coffe...

The phrase β€œevery conservative influencer in the business” tells you everything you need to know.

The entire modern conservative movement descends from snake oil salesmen and prosperity gospel revival tent preachers.

It’s nothing more than a con, and that’s all it will ever be.
