And that's why I'm here. I'm not here for "influence" or arguing with MAGA. I don't find joy in either of those things. I'm here for perspectives from the experts, including journalists, who are focused on sharing the truth vs. shit posting.

Fascinating how you're more truthful & direct in your post than your headline. Almost as if you want to provide different accounts of reality to different people. You may has well say "WaPo readers are reshaping their relationship with the paper" (which is to say, having no relationship at all).

I'm so sick of the snottiest little weasels talking about strength. I am a 5'4" woman and feel very strongly I could beat Mike Johnson in a street fight.

The entitlement is off the charts. Adam can come out of his ivory tower if he's got better ways of protesting.

Responding to violence w/violence is the whole fucking argument Republicans use to justify zero gun control in this country. They get to say "try it in a small town" while simultaneously saying "don't even think of doing it in your city". Get out in those streets yourself & see how you take it.

So… not MS13? They’re really going to try to get this guy for driving other migrants to job sites.

I bet they are the same men who bitched and moaned about having to wear masks during COVID to protect people. But now they love it if it means they get to hurt people.

I think the reason low educated Republicans have gotten into bed with billionaires is because they hate people smarter than them more than people richer than them. Meanwhile, the billionaires are pilfering from people just like them - but heaven forbid someone call them stupid on Twitter!

LOVE this for her! But does that mean we won't get a Reputation Taylor's Version? I've been waiting for that one the most. 😭

Is this another thing supposed alpha men do?

Sounds like he ran out of merit.

Does he know or is he aware of anything? I know more than him about current events!

They love to say Kamala slept her way to the top, but what about THIS idiot? Got her sugar daddy grandpa husband to shoot her all the way into the White House.

So, more strongly worded letters. You all have let us down so terribly. I'm so sad for our party.

I share your desperation.

It's the Elon approach. Make a product then alienate the only customers interested in that product. No way is MAGA buying his book.

Yeah, I continue to READ about kids dying in schools, women suffering cruelly from lack of reproductive care, long-eradicated diseases coming back... you know, other things. You single issue voting fucks have accomplished literally nothing but getting people pulled off the streets. BRAVO.
comment in response to post
Where TF did I defend genocide? I'm sorry, but I'm also very concerned about the school kids who get shot in mass, the women dying of sepsis from lack of reproductive care, the people dying of preventative diseases. Republicans don't give AF about them. Not everything is fucking Gaza.
comment in response to post
These people are insufferable. And many of them are immigrants themselves. When ICE deports them to god knows where they'll keep patting themselves on the back for rejecting BOTH SIDES. It's certifiably insane.
comment in response to post
When Trump Gaza opens, all you heroes who decided to hurt a lot of disenfranchised people in this country can pat yourselves on the backs for a job well done. It's like you're all obsessed with your own farts. Fuck off.
comment in response to post
And a lot of people in this country will suffer for it. What heroes you all are. 🙄

God, they are STILL on that? They think they're so clever with this like 14-year-old level satire.
comment in response to post
Dude, everyone hates @cnn.com now. Everyone. You're all just completely out of touch with America. It's quite something to relate to absolutely no one. Perhaps sit down, check your massive egos at the door and humble yourselves.

Love you Al! Be ready in 2026 when we get the House back to get the impeachment going.
comment in response to post
Uh oh, has this distracted you from your up-to-the-minute accounting of how old retiree Joe Biden is? Better stay focused lest you miss him aging another day longer!
comment in response to post
They are scared and feckless and know Biden is an easy target who won't retaliate in their effort to look "unbiased" to the right. It's actually an incredibly cheap and lazy strategy.
comment in response to post
Interesting how willing they are to re-interpret several articles and amendments of our Constitution aside from 2A. But then again, they always ignored the "well-regulated" part of that one.
comment in response to post
Don't you even think about touching David Hogg. He speaks for all of us who are sick as sh*t about do-nothing Dems. The only Dems I'll ever vote for again will be tough as nails and completely equipped to meet this moment. Sick of the pitiful Dems bringing butter knives to a gun fight.
comment in response to post
Your "book" is more about adapting an old man's schedule to ensure he gets rest. We did the same thing with my grandfather. Made him slow down before he killed himself. His mind was 100% in tact, he was just OLD like you will be someday you SOB. Can't wait to write a book about your sin of aging.

It's gaslighting on a national level. I'm sick over it.

Crossing fingers for a Titanic outcome.

Are we meant to believe Qatar is doing this out of the kindness of their hearts? That it wasn't implied that they'd be owed a favor in the future? You don't have to state the "quo" at the outset to make it a bribe, that's so silly. It's freaking mob behavior.
comment in response to post
I love watching your brain rewire itself to justify the position of your feckless newspaper. The Constitution is clear: elected officials, including the president, can't accept large gifts from foreign governments without consent from Congress. And it's not a gift to America, it's a gift to Trump.
comment in response to post
Despite their anger towards Trump, the dad is still parroting his talking points about the "wide open border". If you are a first generation immigrant in this country and voted against other would-be first generation immigrants, you can go to hell.
comment in response to post
I need to close the internet now while I'm still smiling from your comment.
comment in response to post
You're a hero, Emily. Thank you.
comment in response to post
Despite their anger, the dad is still parroting Trump's talking points about a "wide open border". So they can have the day they voted for.
comment in response to post
Absolutely. I always liked Joe but he really ruined his legacy with that one. He's the person most responsible for Trump being back in power IMO.
comment in response to post
The only Democrats getting my future votes are the ones who promise to throw every person involved in this in jail. No dancing around conservative "feelings" and the fact that they were elected. (As if no one elected has ever been thrown in jail before. Toughen up, USA.)
comment in response to post
This is all exactly correct. Everyone who went into law enforcement from my high school were bullies who weren't very bright.
comment in response to post
Why do you "I'm going be moderate because Republicans love that!" Democrats feel the need to slap yourselves in the dicks all the time? It's embarrassing to watch. Yeah, keep climbing to that center no one is voting for, Gavin.
