Fascism is always trying to play the long game, but the long game always hates fascism.

This whole think makes absolutely clear that the man could not make a credible, functional personnel decision if his life depended on it.
All the best people. Who then find out what kind of a human he is, and run screaming.

They want everybody utterly and completely dependent on their technology.

So wait, Trump may be waking up to the fact that Musk came in and took him for a ride? To try to feather his own bed, at Trump's and the rest of the country's expense?
This is fascinating.

Musk will certainly deserve all the derision that Trump will heap on him. He will join Kelly, McMaster, Tillerson, Mattis, Scaramucci, and Sessions, and Pence and...
You are right. It is inevitable. I can't wait.

"Best Pizza" lists are wacky. There have to be 1.5-2K pizzerias in NYC. No one has the resources to comparatively eat that many pies, and they will always vary depending on the given Piazzaiolo who threw your order. Just tell us who consistently makes a great pie. It'll make you much more credible.

I find it almost impossible to believe that Putin will negotiate at the Vatican after Pope John Paul II helped bring down Wojciech Jaruzelski, which precipitated the dissolution of everything Putin loved.
OTOH, it is a magnificent slap at the man by Leo. Bravo.

Europe has been here before. Let us hope that even though the US has failed to learn the lessons of history, the older and wiser nations on the mature side of the pond have learned.

Kaja Kallas is brilliant, and principled, and she has a stronger spine and more guts than every GOP politician in the whole USA.
What a person.

This used to be called flip flopping. Until the GOP started doing it constantly.

Every time he gets asked a question and plays stupid, all I can think of is Frankie Pentangeli: "I don't know nothing about that..."
Who is he lying for?
Is he worried he's going to get pushed down a set of stairs?

Nice thought, sort of, Governor, but south of Windsor is Amherstburg. Ontario.
Great little museum there that can teach you a lot about American history.

Pritzker (and the whole country) has to work to remove the plank from our own eye before he begs for Canada's forbearance. IATA? (Is America the A$$hole?)
Yes. Yes, it is.
For a man whose face is the color of a sunflower, Trump sure has driven the country into a very dark place.

I don’t get it. He’s rich beyond my wildest dreams, has a beautiful wife, a spread in Florida, a place in Manhattan, and he can have any steak he wants.
Why is he wasting his time hating on immigrants, LGBTQ+ folks and anyone with a conscience? Go golf. He happy. Leave everyone else alone, bro.

What? Trump LIED? I'm shocked! Shocked, I tell you!
The whole revenge tour has been about exacting as much pain on America as possible with no regard for collateral damage whatsoever. The ultimate gaslighting event of modern American history, being executed flawlessly.

Oh, no. Do I have to fly to the east coast and stand in line for hours to get into a bakery to validate my humanity again?
I hate when that happens. I just worked off the poundage from that bacon donut.
