In the canon of cartoon playground bullies there's usually a big hulkin' guy and then behind him a little ratfaced goblin boy jeering. I don't know who the first guy is but the second one is definitely JD Vance.

Zelenskyy gives a thumbs up after getting berated by a visibly agitated Trump

submitted 1 day ago • 520 comments

This was a disgusting display by the soft, uninformed VP Vance trying to school Zelensky, the man who has led his country through the most surprisingly resilient and effective fight for sovereignty against a global superpower. Every negative stereotype about America is confirmed in this exchange.

The goal is to terrorize federal workers into quitting. That’s it. Constant changes. Canceling work from home then closing offices. Laying off probationary employees. It’s designed to break the government. Then privatize it for profit. It’s not efficiency. It’s collapse. Only peasants will suffer.

Every mainstream attempt to grapple with the rise of Tate and other misogynist ideologues have posed them as a product of men’s despair. Few have posited them as an assault on women’s safety and dignity.

I'm convinced this is a genuine problem. The reality of Trump is so cartoonishly, comically awful that an absolutely neutral description sounds like a hit piece, even to me. So if you're at all predisposed to think of press as biased, factual reporting looks like some relentless vendetta.

With another set of news headlines about political elites using “””Roman salutes””” I just want to note that the Nazi salute means “I want to murder your family” and the n-word means “I want to lynch you.” That’s what they mean, they make me righteously angry, and I won’t let anybody minimize them.

What's buried in the subhead here is that this woman was violently dragged by three men who were LATER identified as PRIVATE security guards—three strange men who refused to identify themselves while every other man visible in the video looked on and the speaker on stage heckled her.

Trump: I AM A KING! NYT: Trump displays a "fondness for regal themes"

submitted 9 days ago • 393 comments

the line about how trump is just trolling or joking about the “king” thing is belied somewhat by the fact that his administration’s explicit position is he can do whatever he wants and that everyone in every branch of government needs to bow to his demands or be banished
