a theory I have is that while a lot of people say trump is "funny," he's not in on the joke AT ALL, and almost everything they interpret as him joking is him lost in a completely unrestrained narcissistic psychosis so extreme that normal people imagine he can't be serious

I have no patience for this temporizing. People are being summarily shipped off into slavery in central america under the imprimatur of the US government right now. Canada—Canada!—is putting itself on a war footing. We’ve been off the map and in uncharted territory for the last 250 miles.

We are very close to a near cure for two of the highest-mortality cancers we know: glioblastoma and pancreatic cancer. These are both mRNA based treatments which are losing their funding during stage I and II trials. Thousands will die needlessly because of this motherfucker and his lies.

what confuses me about Sen. Whitehouse is that he’s clear eyed on court reform and the way money corrupts, but somehow blinkered on this. Schumer has to go. There is no “onward” with this leadership.

This is a failure on multiple levels but especially so because it grants unique status to SCOTUS, an institution that has contributed substantially to the current state of affairs, and completely erases the constitutional status of his own branch of government. Just grade-A loser mindset.

Throughout the entire Trump era, the people who were called unserious for overreacting or catastrophizing have been correct and the calm, smug centrists have been catastrophically wrong (and have refused to learn). Trump has already tried to overturn elections and surely will again.

The Trump tax plan only works by cutting public services. This incredible visualization combines the potential tax cuts (which mostly go to the rich) and loss of services (mostly borne by the poor). It is a giant wealth transfer from the poorest to the richest. budgetlab.yale.edu/news/250319/...
