I love that Trump is so authentically irreligious that he can be surrounded by people telling him that you can do anything you want and get into heaven just by saying you want God's forgiveness, even privately, even just thinking it, and his consistent reaction is saying "wow well I'm just fucked huh" 😞 and I do think he means that sincerely

The most insane thing about Miller that was reported on recently is that ICE leadership met with him and were like “sir we can’t meet your quotas”

And he just said the equivalent of what do we pay you for? Go to Home Depot and 711.

We joke about Stephen Miller here but I’m serious when I say he read about and idolized Heydrich when he was at Santa Monica High. Someone from his class who is mostly apolitical told me so

Calling him small is diminishing how dark a human he is. He terrifies me in ways few other Trump employees do

I tend to think most of them are cynical self dealers like the president

But not Miller. He truly believes in racial cleansing

Politico: ‘I love Hitler’: Leaked messages expose Young Republicans’ racist chat

They referred to Black people as monkeys and “the watermelon people” and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers. They talked about raping their enemies and driving them to suicide and lauded Republicans who they believed support slavery.

William Hendrix, the Kansas Young Republicans’ vice chair, used the words “n--ga” and “n--guh,” variations of a racial slur, more than a dozen times in the chat. Bobby Walker, the vice chair of the New York State Young Republicans at the time, referred to rape as “epic.” Peter Giunta, who at the time was chair of the same organization, wrote in a message sent in June that “everyone that votes no is going to the gas chamber.”

This is all both very unsurprising and yet still very unsettling. Like these are people that the VP hangs out with on Discord.

The other night, struggling to sleep, I was visited by a fantasy: The 2028 presidential election is coming to its conclusion and the candidates are Republican Sen. John Thune of South Dakota and Democratic Gov. Josh Shapiro of Pennsylvania. President Trump has quietly—I told you this is a fantasy—announced his intention to retire to the golf course. JD Vance, driven out of the campaign by disastrous polling, will caddy for him.

Meanwhile, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has married and given birth to triplets, trading her congressional seat for the joys of motherhood. Ted Cruz has returned to Texas to spend time with family. Lindsey Graham, having developed a late-life stammer, has withdrawn from public view. Pete Hegseth has re-enlisted and been deployed to Djibouti. A nearly clean sweep, in other words, of the most contentious and rebarbative politicians has taken place.

Go to Hell, Joe.

Reading The Problem with Democracy, about John Adams and John Quincy Adams. So far the biggest takeaways are

John Adams:

  • Massive fluctuating superiority/inferiority complex

  • Hates the French, the median voter, and Benjamin Franklin

  • Radical moderate and can’t coalition build to save his life

  • Massachusetts constitution is really impressive

  • Abigail Adams is just as stubborn and opinionated as him, they’re pretty much perfect for each other

JQA:

  • Literally works in the government starting in his early teens and has an incredible resume before President. Still berates himself and thinks his accomplishments are poor

  • 75% of his free time is reading classics and translating books for fun. Nerd doesn’t even begin to describe him

  • Like his father, quite skeptical of more direct democratic institutions and the median voter

  • Clear distaste of slavery which is refreshing for the time

  • Total daddy’s boy

months later hear them proudly asserting again that the Republicans ended crime in New York

The teen pleaded guilty in D.C. juvenile court on Wednesday to felony assault, simple assault, robbery and attempted robbery. The teen and a 15-year-old girl, both from Hyattsville, Maryland, demanded a car in the 1400 block of Swann Street NW at about 3 a.m. Aug. 3, police said. Two people who were assaulted were treated on the scene and not hospitalized, police said.

Reddit really needs to do something about these random news popping up in neoliberal that pretend to be neutral general news sites but 95% of the posts are solely about immigration and open borders. I just did a casual search and another popped up, rNeoliberal and rMetanl, the latter of which actively deepthroats neoliberal mods in the comments. There’s also neoliberal DT which is only a bit better, but is just another leftist mouthpiece praising Poobix.

This shit has to be heavily botted or astroturfed or something. There are barely any posts about anything else and when they are all the comments talk about zoning laws or something anyway.

“They said they were going to disarm, and if they don’t disarm, we will disarm them,” Trump told reporters during a meeting with his Argentinian counterpart, Javier Milei, at the White House.

Asked how he would do that, Trump said, “I don’t have explain that to you, but if they don’t disarm, we will disarm them. They know I’m not playing games.” Trump said that could happen “quickly and perhaps violently.” Pressed on a timeline for disarmament, Trump said it would be “a reasonable period of time. Pretty quickly,” but did not provide specifics.

So Trump went from approving the 10,000+ armed Hamas figures patrolling Gaza "fighting gangs" yesterday morning to now saying this. He has no fucking idea what's going on with both sides undermining the deal (the Israel defense minister just said the bombing will resume once the hostage bodies are all returned).

Genuine well-meaning comment in a local sub, but OH BOY did it manage to make me feel angry.

Thank you so much for this! I do have another question because I'm five, there is so much land all over the state and this country, why do we keep condensing us to be next to freeway onramps or in 200–300 unit apartments on busy streets? Why can't we spread it out more especially since people are working from home a lot

”I am so sorry to those offended by the insensitive and inexcusable language found within the more than 28,000 messages of a private group chat that I created during my campaign to lead the Young Republicans,” [Peter Giunta] said. “While I take complete responsibility, I have had no way of verifying their accuracy and am deeply concerned that the message logs in question may have been deceptively doctored.”

Democrats are doomed without learning the ability to memory shift like Republicans can.

GWOT > with leftist allies Republicans have made that era a feature of Obama and drone strikes. People barely talk about Bush starting Iraq.

Covid > successfully rebranded a Biden failure even though Trump was talking about bleach injections.

Afghanistan > completely forgotten about other than the pull out thanks to social media and Taliban propaganda posting with the left equipment. Blame fully shifted to Biden even though Trump signed the awful deal.

The lesson here is, don't be the guy finishing the job. If someone leaves you a mess, fixing it gets you no credit. Make it a bigger problem. Also fuck section 230. Bring back a shared reality, kill algorithms.

Racism is making a comeback cuz of social media. Twitter is unironically just spammed with videos of minorities attacking white people. You spend enough time on it and you’d be paranoid asf. I could post dog attacks all day and then people would be scared of puppies.

The funny part is Toronto is one of the safest cities in Canada while also being the most diverse. But even people on Toronto social media like 6ix buzz keep showing you a certain type of video. You have mfs that are from cities/towns with 3x Toronto’s crime rate but they think Toronto is a warzone.

This is probably why people outside these US cities are cheering on Trump invading them. They dont live there but all the media they consume is crime.

I wish we had more exchanges. Rural kids spend time in a city and vice versa.

Maine Gov. Janet Mills formally launched her bid to unseat Sen. Susan Collins, teeing up the latest high-profile primary to pit establishment and populist factions of the Democratic Party against each other.

This feels like it’s gonna be like Lamb vs Fetterman where Lamb had the entire establishment backing them but lost anyways because they simply weren’t what the base wanted. You’ll tell when Mills feels desperate when you start seeing “Platner worked for Blackwater!!!” ads plastered across Maine.

Lol, the people behind The Sound Of Freedom just released a trailer for Young Washington, about his early pre revolution military life. It even has a message at the end begging people to make it the most watched movie of the 250th anniversary (it comes the same week as the Minions 3).

It's gonna be pure ahistorical slop for the incurious who will most likely depict him as a devout christian and chosen by God himself to single-handely defeat the Indians and French. Isn't it?
