So I guess if I learned anything today it’s that in MAGA world a white retired three star weekend warrior with no leadership experience is more qualified than a four star career military leader who is a career military man. I’m going to enjoy the mental gymnastics here.

A pop-up blocker but for hypochondriacs that blocks webmd.

The cocaine probably helped.

Hey @repyvetteclarke.bsky.social tried calling your DC office. Rang once and went to voicemail. What’s the deal with that?

But you gotta hand it to Benny, he didn’t let lack of talent, integrity, or likability hold him back. He picked himself up by his bootstraps and dedicated his life to being a husband and father who spends more time kissing Trump’s ass than with his family.

Of course being caught plagiarizing and getting fired from Buzzfeed also has its own cringe.

I think being a 37 year old who goes by Benny is cringe enough on its own.

Emil Bove looks like they tried to clone Stephen Miller but it didn’t quite go as planned.

They just want us to become so jaded that we’re just going to shrug and say what are you gonna do?

Jesus Christ have you people not read any Philip K. Dick or watched Terminator?

Adrian Vermeule will soon be out with some cockamamie argument about the 22nd amendment being invalid because it isn’t in the common good or some other horseshit.

Movie you watched more than six times. GIFs only.

i think it is cool that de facto first consul of the united states is a drug-addled maniac and deadbeat dad with a breeding fetish

After that remark by Karoline Leavitt, I hope Canada beats the US.

For someone as obsessed with appearances as Trump, why does his Deputy AG look the villain in a German expressionist movie?

Children of Men doesn’t seem so dystopian anymore.

I don’t understand why people go to CPAC year after when they literally just give the same speeches over and over. “Do we still hate the left?” “Yes.” “Cool, see you next year.”

The sad thing about JD Vance is he’s going to be a minion his whole life for others instead of a leader. He parrots the opinions of Peter Thiel and Trump out of insecurity and desperation to not be seen as “white trash.”
