In real life, who isn’t doing these? It just reads like it accepts as true a bunch of bad faith lies that conservatives are telling about universities

Face looks like one of those sad sharks in an aquarium
To be clear, this is someone who used to do precisely the kind of GOP bullshit he’s describing telling us unequivocally that it’s bullshit and liberals should not treat it as serious. (I’m not saying this critically or ironically, this perspective is helpful.)
Just lying as though we didn’t all see the video
It doesn’t even look like him
This is a classic example of what happens when conservative bad faith bullshit hits the buzzsaw of real life courts and law. Put your kitchen sink away and pick an actual claim of what you say happened and tell it to the judge and prove it
"We're going to need a story about this accident. Say he was helping a woman. That should work. Also, is he wearing pants? Make sure he's wearing pants."
This is how in thrall they are to Trump. He would rather push right up to the edge of jail and maybe cross it than upset Trump by telling the admin they can’t do the thing the judge ordered them not to or by threatening to resign
It doesn’t even sound like him
What if everything illegal were described like this? “Here’s how Trump can get his immigration policy on a stronger footing—due process.” “Here’s how a thief could get his financial plan on a stronger footing—earn money instead of stealing.”
So the ones who cave aren’t victims to be pitied for being targeted or for having their all-too-human weakness exposed. They abet the admin by increasing its ability to harm everyone else. 2/2
There is no middle ground when the admin comes after an institution. You must resist and fight. Not because it’s an emotional “us vs. them” thing, but because acquiescence makes it easier for the admin to punish the others. 1/2
It remains extremely funny that the person who wrote the “expose” on funding liberal influencers was immediately caught with a sponsorship deal for a pro-phones-in-class take that no one would have without being sponsored
How the Federal Circuit Saved Christmas
It’s very funny to think of them casting this. Pretty sure they wouldn’t filter for 6’4”, 225 pounds
She is such a moron. She’s had this job for decades and has no idea how anything works. Any acknowledgment whatsoever of wrongdoing by Cook (there wasn’t any) would be fatal, and McArdle and the rest of the DC press corps wouldn’t defend her. “Some mortgage fraud is inevitable” = “I’ve done this”
If the flow of drugs from other countries justify tariffs, they justify anything. Just nonsense
This is what passes for good news in this administration

The post did not provide an explanation for why Smith chose to treat the administration’s obviously pretextual basis for the firing with any legitimacy at all. It instead sought to paint it as abnormal or a sign of guilt for a lawsuit not to make the other side’s argument
“The full Times”
The deaths be caused by RFK Jr. won’t just show up statistically as excess deaths; millions will be specifically identifiable. Kids who die of polio and Oregon Trail diseases. When cancer breakthroughs are allowed to happen again, everyone lost in prior 4-x years to what will have become treatable
At least some of them are dumb enough to ignore the advice everyone is giving them about not doing in person town halls
That LA-MS rivalry. But don’t sleep on AL!
No it doesn’t. There’s no indication in the post or otherwise that business is turning on him. We are on the verge of losing Fed independence which everyone knows will be a disaster and they are saying nothing
And he’s still more courageous than all the ones wearing masks
Nor when 1929 2.0 comes along. Trump took their weak “but not the Fed” shadow docket nonsense for the weak shit it was and is going to ram it down their throats
In fairness to Reuters, Biden never talked about it, so how would anyone know?
Couldn’t 40 be enough, though, with the full power of the state behind them? I agree that there’s some amount of support below which they can’t sustain this, but it could be lower than 40
Uh, no there aren’t
I would judge “Poles are wrong”
Oh, you know the ones
This was predictable and predicted, but you laundered it all away in 2024
This is similar to how conservative ideologues started taking a heavy hand in selection of Clarence Thomas’s clerks
In 2024 in many ostensibly apolitical spaces, it was uncool to support Biden/Harris and correspondingly cool to be for Trump
I think the jury is still out on Jeffries’ legislative effectiveness. He has held the heterogeneous Democratic caucus together and unified in opposition to GOP legislation. Schumer is bad. Too many Dem defections on nominees and legislation, including Schumer. And couldn’t pass stuff when in power
This time they were literally praying
Why are applications so bad at providing a default size for minimized windows? I don’t expect it to be perfect and not need adjustment, but maybe just rule out “pretty much still fullscreen” and “too tiny to see anything” at the outset
Seems to coincide with Citizens United?
This is exactly what Trump was found liable for in the NY AG suit

I bet they were among the people whining during Covid that they can’t even breathe with a mask on but somehow manage to do it 100% of the time when it’s to escape accountability
They type with four fingers on the keyboard, not tapping with two fingers? There are many articles about this

Wtf!
I hope Yarvin does the surrounded debate thing like Peterson did
“We’re deporting him immediately but when pressed we don’t actually have our evidence together”
Telling homeless people who have nowhere to go that they have to go somewhere else without actually providing an alternative isn’t actually the no nonsense common sense toughness these people seem to think it is

This is a free campaign ad for Trump. It tells Americans that the NewDems caucus supports Trump’s general ideas, and says Trump is not a fascist and Republicans are normal and worth working with (“bipartisan”.) This is electoral poison. It hurts the D brand and so every Dem, me and you included.
It is a truth universally acknowledged that people who shriek on the Internet about suing usually have no case and no intentions.
If you want to surrender, hire a law firm that surrendered
Sorry, but gen z is not only unable to write by hand, but they also don’t know how to type on anything but a phone
At least Dems have lots of great rhetorical sources to draw from in opposing all this
GOP is bringing back all the hits from your US history survey course. If Cook doesn’t leave, can Trump withdraw US deposits from the Fed? Can states nullify federal laws? Can the president issue embargos?Won’t stop at judicial review, we’re going all the way back to “do we need a bill of rights?”
Texas GOP Congressmembers talk about their 2026 districts like tween girls at a slumber party talk about their future husbands

I would be scared to be the flunky tasked with implementing this because it will suddenly turn into grounds for firing
Wishcasting/fantasizing about themselves is endemic in US conservativism: “good” immigrants, rural people getting gov money, ppl who decided going out was more fun than lockdowns. Invent a story you tell yourself to feel superior until reality smacks you in the face b/c it doesn’t care how you voted
Particularly in this case
I know we don’t have to hand it to him, but no one doubts that Grassley writes his own tweets
More like Tugen dhat nut
It’s deportation in the WWII concentration camp sense
It’s long been the case that conservatives who loudly pontificate about what the founders envisioned have no fucking idea what they’re talking about. How can anyone who has read the Federalist Papers (let alone makes them their whole personality) think the founders would be ok with this?
It’s literally the opposite. They’ve scared everyone off the streets
He should sue the living shit out of them
Not to stereotype, but I don’t want to go in there after Sasquatch
They are blithely going down the path of their own irrelevancy because if you cede judicial power because you like the outcome you won’t get it back when you don’t
Pretty sure Secret Service had to stop Jake Tapper from shoving a camera up Biden’s ass when the prostate cancer diagnosis came out
They’re equipped! Biden is the model, even though his health issues pale in comparison. They can do it, they just choose not to. And when Trump’s health issues are disclosed/undeniable, media will cite FDR when treating them with discretion instead of the 24/7 scandal they would with a Dem president
