When anti-DEI officially becomes pro-Racism.

How do you say Pearl Harbor in Russian?

Going to suggest it's not very good for Jews when politicians start declaring who the "real" Jews are and who are not...

I talked to 15 teachers/professors about how AI and ChatGPT is ruining their lives: www.404media.co/teachers-are...

"No one voted to deport moms" — yes they did. This is why Critical Race Theory needs to be taught to everyone. It was common for white people to have their "favorite" Black individuals they worked with or employed, while still supporting the Jim Crow system that oppressed Black people as a whole.

Magical thinking does not persuade bond markets

i don’t want to watch the glenn greenwald sex tape. no one can make me

This is hilarious... and pathetic.

This guy stole $10 million from the employees of his nursing home to buy himself a luxury yacht and Cartier watches. He PLED GUILTY. And because his Mom gave Trump $1 million, he just got a pardon. And this story barely makes the news today. WTF. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/27/u...

“The result is a $10,000 gain for Americans in the top 20% and a $800 loss for those at the bottom.”

Update: Despite widespread reports of Musk “stepping back” from politics, he is still standing near enough by that the President runs US foreign policy in the insane way Musk wants it run and waves at him while doing so.

South Africa’s president looked weak as hell & Trump was just unhinged. The ambush & conspiracy theory video was peak boomer cringe. The MSNBC reporter asking about the plane in the middle of it was a dumbass. The entire US / South Africa meeting was a shit show today. Embarrassing to all involved.

The Democratic Party’s age problem isn’t just bad, it’s much worse than Republicans’. Half of registered Democratic voters are under 50, yet half their senators are over 67. Despite claiming to represent the future, party leadership systematically blocks younger voices from gaining power.

A story about why Democrats are losers, in four parts.

In an effort to avoid accusations of cheating, some students are recording their own screens for hours at a time or using keystroke loggers.

Anybody else remember that time the Bush administration manufactured intelligence to "prove" Iraq had weapons of mass destruction to justify going to war with a nation that had absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with 9/11?!? Not sure what just made me think of that... weird.

the result of 9 years of this guy in the political spotlight has been that now nobody even comments that a sitting US president is on social media openly threatening US citizens when they enter his jurisdiction because they said a thing he didn't like

They’ve been in a foreign prison for two months. Bring them all back.

I only need 5 minutes to complete my financial disclosures every year cause I own zero stocks. The same should be true for all members of Congress. We must ban Congressional stock trading.

No, you’re not crazy. They are deporting brown people and importing white people.

Whole world can see the US president is white trash propped up by white trash.

The guy who handed the arsonist gasoline and a pack of matches now upset his building is on fire.

Just hit me that the importing of white folks from South Africa and exporting of brown people is actually, literally an attempt at a great replacement

OK, this is wild. In September 2023, geophysicists across the world started monitoring a very odd signal coming from the ground under them. It was picked up in the Arctic. And Antarctica. It was detected everywhere, every 90 seconds, as regular as a metronome, for *nine days*. What the HELL? 1/

REFUGEE: "We'd like asylum in the United States." ASYLUM HOTLINE: "We're full. Not taking any more." REFUGEE: "We're white." ASYLUM HOTLINE: "How soon can you get here?"

Do we wonder why white descendants of apartheid would be seen as assimilating very easily into the United States over other groups, or nah.

1955: Whites-only water fountains 2025: Whites-only immigration.

The Afrikaner stunt is the kind of thing that has backfired so far -- it creates legal arguments for other refugees about animus. But holy hell he's not hiding the white sheets.

I'm old enough to remember when Hunter Biden's paintings were an obsession with the GOP, led by Trump, claiming that buyers were getting access to Joe and that he deserved to be impeached for such corruption.

Who I feel sorry for is America’s homegrown racists, who have worked hard for decades only to be forced to compete with Afrikaners for their jobs.

For those confused by the China tariff news: • Trump caved and got zero in return • No manufacturing moved back to the USA • 30% tariff is still a huge tax on Americans • 90 day pause still causes uncertainty • Trump lost all negotiating leverage

So Trump is getting a $400+ million bribe from the Qatari royal family which is the main sponsor for and interlocutor on behalf of Hamas.

The president has covered the Oval Office in gold, is planning a massive military parade for his birthday, and is now accepting $400,000,000 luxury planes from foreign powers as personal presents. What the fuck are we doing here?

It's 2015. President Barack Obama has accepted a "sky palace" jumbo jet from the Qatari government, which he'll own after he leaves office. "Everybody relax," he says in an interview with the New York Times. Everyone does. The networks then televise the military parade in his honor on his birthday.

Unlike ordinary Americans, Trump doesn't have to worry about tariffs on foreign goods because he receives them as bribes for free.

THE PRESIDENT, WHO HAS NUCLEAR CODES AND TALKS TO HEADS OF STATE CONSTANTLY, CAN'T FLY AROUND ON A JET GIVEN TO HIM BY THE MOST CORRUPT OIL WIERDOS ON EARTH THERE IS NO OTHER "ANGLE" TO THIS STORY

1/2 I think Gillian Tett is right—the word is undergoing a major shift "in the intellectual zeitgeist—of a sort we have seen a few times before." In a way we are revisiting the 1930s when a period of huge trade imbalances, the subordination of... www.ft.com/content/daf5...
