Musk took over the US government with graft and is using it—in combination with his space launch firm—to exploit an allied country that’s suffering under Russian invasion for its mineral rights. The scheme is so imperiously evil I feel like audiences wouldn’t find it believable in a Bond villain.

Btw this is also a geopolitical principle as much as a linguistic one. We cannot see Trump as an aberration. You may want us to reinforce your hope that he does not represent your people and he will get gone eventually. But we /cannot/ stake our futures on that hope.

If this is true it’s an unbelievably foolish, self-destructive approach to the problem. The media cannot function properly while it cuts secret deals with this administration behind the scenes.

For obvious reasons, the lesson—the internet wisdom—behind ‘don’t feed the trolls’ is applicable to random comment board participants but not the president of the United States. The president and his White House staff spending time fantasizing about a monarchy is not wise to ignore.

Canada has the 9th largest economy in the world, a highly educated population, and one of the highest standards of living of any country that has ever existed. We have plenty of problems, but if Canada isn't a serious country I'm not sure any country is.

In case there were any concerns that USA hockey players and management were inadvertent victims of political blowback… Canadians need to boo the fuck out of the US anthem for the foreseeable future. Like, make it so persistent and awkward they stop doing the anthem before games.

This is a concerning milestone. Bringing new investigations and prosecutions is different than just dismissing cases against allies.

The dark truth everyone's circling around is that it doesn't seem like the People care very much about democracy or the Constitution or the rule of law and it's extremely hard to see how anything good happens as long as that's true

Actually trying to arrest or charge AOC with anything will lead to such an incredible backlash, a real FAFO moment. And threatening her with a spurious investigation will just make her louder

worth saying again these these unilateral cuts are illegal. neither trump nor musk has the authority to unilaterally slash appropriated funds.

The American President declared economic war on Canada, said Canada was not a viable country and wants to take Canada over. Canada boos the American National Anthem. Who has the right to feel disrespected in this exchange? We'll stop booing when our existence is no longer being threatened.

The interim US Attorney for the Southern District of New York, a FedSoc member and former Scalia clerk, has done more to publicly expose the corruption of the Trump administration this week at greater personal cost than any elected official I can think of.

1) Adopt a war-effort approach to reorienting our economy away from the US. Treat this as the existential emergency it is, with the federal gov't invoking POGG powers if necessary. 2) Call on our NATO & other allies to condemn Trump's threats against us, and to affirm their Article 5 commitment. 1/n

Not that anyone cares but a bunch of senior doj officials resigning over a corrupt instruction to drop a case was what triggered the Nixon impeachment, and in the Trump era it's just the 2pm scandal of a random Thursday and every day now has ~3 such scandals that would have ended any prior admin

“I will not condone the awful things I spent years setting up,” said Senator Mitch McConnell. “The easily foreseeable consequences of my repeated, voluntary, unethical actions, the ones a lot of people called bad at the time and warned could lead to very bad things, are, uh, someone else’s fault.”

The Partition of India displaced 20 million people, killed almost 2 million & created a refugee crisis whose effects are still in play over 70 years later, if you actually think it's a model for anything but massive catastrophe, you should not only not be employed here you should be in a padded cell

Reporting on the "51st state" stuff should really be much more explicit that what Trump is talking about is starting a war and trying to occupy Canada. Canada is not going to amend its constitution to join the US. That is not a thing. Trump is talking about war.

It is the position of the administration that a post saying “Free Palestine” or talking about diversity should ruin your life, but a post calling to hate people from India should not. That’s their moral sensibility. Nazi scum.
