What if the U.S. started a trade war, and the White House got bored halfway, and wandered away? Well, we're living it. It has been 12 E̵p̵s̵t̵e̵i̵n̵ days since the White House bothered to issue a tariff letter, and it has left the job only about one-seventh done.

The revelation that the Bush (43) Administration sanctioned torture was an outrage and a scandal. The revelation the second Trump Administration renditioned people to third world countries and the below happened to them is met with a shrug.
We did this to him. This government. This country. We condemned him to this torture because he dared to follow our own laws and seek refuge here. Utterly sick.

But what’s a book that inherently holds the potential to be read so deeply that if you read it so deeply you would have in effect read 100 books?
He entered the U.S. legally, followed all the rules, and had no criminal record. And our government still sent him to be raped and tortured in a Venezuelan prison. If you are ok with that, I'm not sure what separates you from the Nazis justifying the concentration camps.

This is ridiculously inaccurate. A person who believes every conspiracy theory is far more gullible, and if you believe the research on the subject, they are a good deal more likely to be emotionally and psychologically unhealthy.
The person who believes every conspiracy theory is just as gullible as the person who believes every story from the corporate press.
Insane that this happened in two years instead of twenty. The rate at which everything is getting stupider is accelerating to a nearly incalculable degree. x.com/JoePostingg/st…
It's going to be so cool when we rerun this moral panic with sugar in 20 years. There's going to be dudes claiming straight cane sugar is healthy for you.
On some level, I’m not even sure how central this “stealing” question is. Israel set out to dislodge Hamas as governing authority in the Strip with good reason. They have been largely successful. They are now responsible for governance and they’re not doing it.
It's dumb and it shouldn't matter, but this almost all happened under the Biden administration. One guy just got sentenced earlier this week, but he has charged in 2024. The others involved in that site were all sentenced between 2022 and 2024.
🚨 WHOA: Trump's FBI just shut down 4 dark web sites for child s*x abuse materials, arrests 19 people, and the total sentences may be up to 300 YEARS in prison combined. A MAJORLY successful operation: "Operation Grayskull."
It pretty much seems like the second the communal experience of WW2 was no longer a lived experience the U.S. embraced the worst elements of itself
The container ship and the wooden pallet are two of the most fantastically boring things that completely revolutionized all of trade and logistics and make the modern economy possible
man I love this sort of innovation lowering costs more than 95% with a single change is such a satisfying move
underrated font of cynicism in young left-ish voters is sinemanchin. the first time dems could theoretically do something in their remembered lives and it gets torpedoed by two conservadems for no reason.
Dems when they had a Majority in Congress+ the WH and a $15 wage went to the Senate:
#1 election issue was inflation so we’re restricting the supply of goods and sending everyone free money
BREAKING - President Trump is now stating that due to the massive amount of money coming in thanks to tariffs on countries, he plans to give it back to United States citizens in the form of a rebate.
I don’t quite understand why Dan Bongino—who's spent a lot of his career mocking government workers and snowflakes—keeps delivering these self-pitying monologues. I feel for him, but no one forced him to take a job in the federal government.
Dan Bongino : “I gave up everything for this… My wife is struggling... I stare at these four walls all day in DC... by myself... It's hard.”
"thank you for choosing amtrak" no problem there are no other trains
Nevertheless, Xi persisted
The Chinese Communist Revolution violently expropriated the relatively well-to-do, and left their children worse off. Yet, one generation later the same inequality had returned. The difference was that the grandchildren of the rich worked harder and had better values! 1/
it's 2019. people are complaining about the lack of diversity in this new picrew dollmaker site. so i um
share a piece of art lore about yourself
There is just something so utterly perfect about *Donald Trump* of all people lecturing the media about chasing conspiracy theories while he’s focused on serious substantive business.
Trump on Epstein files: I'm focused on making deals and not conspiracy theories that you are. I watch you people, it is so sad. Talk about the success of our country instead of this nonsense you talk about over and over.
