Trump sends the Marines in to fire on our own citizens and the best Karen Newsom can come up with is threatening legal action. Ask to speak with his manager while you're at it

And the only thing we've heard from the dems since is the head of the DNC crying in emails that he wants to quit because bluesky wants him to do his job

Just to be clear: the President has mobilized the Marines on American soil because people are protesting masked, secret police kidnapping people with no due process and shipping them to foreign death camps. It’s not a misunderstanding or an oversight. That is all it is. There is no other side.

thinking about how the last bit of Democratic messaging before this moment was “TACO Trump”

I'm convinced the qualifications to become any kind of executive or creative director in the gaming industry is to be one of the stupidest people alive

The disparity btwn what’s actually happening in Los Angeles and the way it’s being mischaracterized is one of the biggest stress tests of modern media in recent memory. Botted socials, AI, old clips, declining literacy—it’s like seeing a broken emergency response system hit by a storm.

All the people who have been schizoposting about FEMA death camps for past 15 years are suddenly cheering for a clear violation of the 1878 Posse Comitatus Act.

it’s cool that the president is desperately trying to slam on the civil war button and the response from the media has been like “fuck yeah, newsom-trump battle for the ages! *WWE fight music*”

it really speaks to how trump does not see himself as a steward of the white house or the presidency but as its owner. he will do with it as he pleases.

something i’ve been thinking about lately is the idea that america has transformed from a nation of citizens to a nation of consumers — and to really take that seriously, not just as a way to decry materialism. if you internalize that, i think most of Trump’s mainstream/marginal support makes sense

Personal minor Indycar related nitpick Stop calling it the Bommarito 500 if it's not 500 miles. You can call it the 500K like Texas used to do but just 500? You're an American racing series trying to capture a predominantly American audience who are taught to interpret race distances in Imperial

thinkin of this tweet for no particular reason

So, as someone who only knows the sparknotes version of TLOU2, I knew this was coming. I'm whatever on it. My concern is other non-players HATE Abbey and aren't paying $60 for season 3. So, legitimately, who is going to watch 6 episodes of JUST Abbey's backstory?

WE'RE BACK, CHAT

I remember when Punk showed up in AEW for the first time and being someone still pretty new to wrestling I was like, "It's great to see everyone so happy, this guy is clearly a big deal" I watched clips online, tried to understand the hype. Fun iconoclastic heel work, the pipe bomb, he seemed cool

I feel like “Current Republican Speaker of the House threatens political opponent with third degree burns and torture” should get more media attention than it will

Bulega getting a job as a teat rider for Ducati's GP team is pretty cool too

Everyone's acting like they're firing Yuki tomorrow. Imo they're prepping for the inevitable Yuki-Liam Red Bull lineup after Max decides to do something else incredibly stupid and gets himself suspended.

I feel like we're all having a rough time this morning. Here, have some LMP1

I'm officially over the F1 schedule nonsense. Toprak to MotoGP is real. Not saying he's gonna fight with Marc and Pecco right away, but if anyone can make the transition from WSBK to GP bikes successful, it's him.

IT'S HAPPENING. IT'S HAPPENING. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Bet it's quiet on twitter right now
