My, my, how the turns table!

Cry me a freekin river.

This is only happening because Reichsleiter Musk whined to Trump about it. And because they're white.

Send 'em to England don't send 'em here. We're already full of racist turds.

Kash wants the prestige and the authority, he just can't do the work.

iow, he's unqualified!

Whoda thunk?

Cool, we can add even more tax expense to this unimportant ego flex.

Trust is a lot like respect in that a higher level of trust is earned, and so is distrust. I afford everyone a certain level of trust and respect until they demonstrate it is my better interests to do otherwise.

That's how I try to treat people. But I'll admit, I can overdo the disrespect/distrust at times, particularly over politics. I try to remind myself that.

But then I can't help but remind myself about potential for suspension of Habeas Corpus, screwing over veterans, old people, et al. for tax cuts, and dissolving our traditions and our place as a world leader in democracy, science, and global health, and I think, nah, eff-em.

Kash Patel: We pay our budget in Kash(TM). Now check out my sweet neck-scarf that says "FBI BOSS" in gold lettering! (posts a selfie about pwning the deep state libs)

Some dumb republican Senator: Can I take a selfie with you Kash? Lookin good!

Kash: Yeah.

Dumb Senator: Really!?!

Kash: No, I meant yeah I look good.

Dumb Senator: Oh, (sulks and buys more Trump coin).

Yeah, you and half the effin country!

You seem like a natural.

A natural Blockfuhrer.

Republicans will flip their lids when the next Dem POTUS has to go on another apology tour.

At first, I thought this thread was about Brokeback's latest handle.

Democrats siding with brutal Gang Members again.

Demonstrably!

Better start working on some clones!

Has anyone else noticed that China has mobilized a national campaign to mitigate the consequences of the trade water and we aren't doing sheet?

Typical Sqeelon, over-promise (lie) and under-deliver.

What I want to see is where is the illegal fraud, abuse, and covert deep bureaucratic state? DOGE and Trump convinced most of America that Federal employees are parasites

Or, even better, be truthful for once and admit there wasn't any of those things, and in actuality Federal workers are just doing their jobs as congress intended consistent with executive oversight.

Alternative headline:

Trump tells his supporters what they want to hear.

Trump doesn't think that way.

I agree, Trump is not a strategist by any measure, which he demonstrates with every flip and flop.

But my point was that people showed up.

Or there probably just won't be a World Cup in 2026.

Don't be so gloom. They held an Olympics in 1936, and they'll hold a World Cup in 2026.

Thanks to Squeeelon, Mars is probably on the list.

Given there are only 195 recognized countries in the world, he must mean everyone. And then some.

Just in time for the pulse of snowmelt coming from the north.

Flooding is good. Everyone knows the story about fertile land around the Mississippi. If we allowed the river to flood as it should, we wouldn't need to dump enough nitrogen on our crops to turn people blue and cause a large deadzone in the Gulf.

Of course, we don't need to dump the N, we just do because it's cheap. Obviously, there comes a point where more fertilizer doesn't equal more production.

How high's the water Mama?!

Meiselas isn't really my thing; he's far too hyperbolic. He's been saying that Trump's end is always around the corner for years now. Typical "we got him this time" stuff that never pans out.

"Trump is in a PANIC over HUGE COURT LOSS", or "Trump FINISHED after MASSIVE EMBARRASSMENT!"

Stuff like that.

But I suppose that's how a lot of Americans need to digest their information these days. After all, that's how FOX News and NEWSMAX do it, so why not lefty news also?

I am happy more Americans are tuning in. Put the "hype" back in hyperbole, Ben!!

lucky for us, it's only about 20% of the DR.

The US was the best in the world when in came to impact and scientific advancement, often led by Federal science agencies. The Chinese are second in the world, but while many Chinese articles still have impact, their extreme "publish or die" mentality results in bad science or outright scientific fraud. While this does occur in the US, it is far less than the Chinese because our science is just better and we have a better review process.

Nevertheless, the Chinese are poised to usurp us from the top spot in the world.

Explain purge.

Don't be such a limpwrist and just say what you mean.
