Almost all the recovery went to the owner class under Biden, so let’s elect Trump and transfer EVERYTHING to the owner class.

What it will mean in practice is that every objective fact has to be balanced with a right wing talking point.

Why do organizations continue to pretend anything Trump says is true? This bet was always only that these tariffs would benefit him personally by crashing the economy so that he could seize more power, and so far the first part is going swimmingly. Everybody knows that. AP certainly knows that. Why pretend otherwise?

The only thing I can figure is that a lot of news organizations think if they suck up to Trump now, then when he consolidates power he’ll kill them last. Which, in contrast, seems like a terrible bet.

And by “Christian values” they mean “White American Evangelical Protestant values”, not anything that has anything to do with what the Christ of the Bible was talking about.

Well once you don’t have a job, you’re a poor! Working as intended.

The current right wing definition of antisemitism as anything other than fullthroated support for Netanyahu and his policies serves two purposes. It’s a tool for shouting down all opposition to a fellow authoritarian, and it makes it harder to call out actual antisemitism, which they are fine with.

If all White House communications go through Starlink, Musk has access to all of it, to use as he sees fit. Blackmail, enriching himself, selling to the highest bidder. Great move for him financially.

Sadly, for the most part, the rest of us reap what he sowed. He’ll be fine.

Well, sure, but before they render a decision, Trump can just have them killed, which at this moment is totally cool and legal, according to them. He can also have all of congress killed, which sort of blunts the possibility of impeachment, which as of right now is the only way to punish him in any way, according to SCOTUS.
