We need to learn and adapt. Every single Senate Dem vote for Rubio. It got us nothing. "Rollover and play dead" got us nothing. Fight back or lose the democracy. Full stop.

I wonder if FIFA told the US it had to be a dictatorship with a poor human rights record before it was allowed to host the World Cup.

I’m not necessarily saying humans are too dumb to be worthy of our spot at the top of the food chain but I will say that if there were 100 gorillas and one gorilla took 55% of all the bananas the other gorillas would beat that gorilla to death with their bare hands.

One annoying thing about the "run the government like a business" guys is that they also are terrible at running businesses. I run my podcast "like a business" in the sense that things are made to a high quality and shipped on time, but it seems their only version of "good business" is "layoffs"

Air traffic controllers are required by law to retire at 56. It is a high-stress, high-intensity job that requires intense focus. The retirement rules are there to keep us all safe. This fucking guy has no clue what's he's doing.

it’s not that this US administration has a different, competing version of what it means to do good. They know and even share our conception of good, and oppose it on purpose to make their enemies mad. Consciously, purposefully, gleefully evil.

So based on Trump’s “love musk or quit” message to the cabinet and his eo saying everyone has to report everything to Musk now, I guess he really is the president. Cool. Coolcoolcool.

They are so stupid, really. It would have been easy to just give themselves some tax cuts, gut a few programs no one will yell at them about, deregulate some things, and coast for four years. Instead they blindly follow president musk’s burn it all down plan and are surprised people are angry

"Amazon deliveries." This is Jason Calacanis, a venture capitalist & prominent Musk toady. And he does not know a big percentage of Amazon deliveries are made by the USPS. I will never get over how stupid the people at the top of US society are.

Serious North Korean s****. The US Attorneys are not the presidents' lawyers. And they should not be "standing against entities... that refuse to put America first" as the President defines it. They are defenders of the Constitution and the laws of this country. What a perversion of justice.
