Oh noez! “Rhetorical hyperbole.” I’d bet the bourbon that this is the way his Patel’s lawsuit against the Atlantic goes as well.

This guy missed the perfect Silicon Valley branding opportunity - a financial app named after himself - and has been kicking himself ever since.
"Kashyap - the Cash App"
Here’s a list of the allegations that Patel claims are false and defamatory:
My "No, the FBI did not have to send a SWAT team because I was passed-out drunk behind a locked door" shirt is raising questions...
Air Bud, JD.
Vance, Witkoff, and Kushner appear to be on the way to Islamabad for some Pakistani food and a very expensive taxpayer-funded game of circle jerk.
The Supreme Court is taking up a case on whether Catholic schools that refuse to accept the children of gay parents are entitled to taxpayer funding.
I'm sure it will be 6-3 with the answer being yes.

The DOJ is acting like in-house counsel for the Oath Keepers and the Proud Boys. Democrats are demanding that the court reject these lawless and dangerous motions.
The FBI responded with a statement, attributed to Patel: “Print it, all false, I’ll see you in court—bring your checkbook.”

If Republicans end up disowning Trump over this image, it’s not because he’s portraying himself as the Messiah. It’s because he’s giving away free healthcare.
Right-wing journalist Brian Glenn speaks out against Trump's post depicting himself as Jesus:
"God is Not Mocked ... I want better [from] you Mr. President"
CBS News: "President Trump's Sunday night Truth Social post of an AI-generated image appearing to depict him in the likeness of Jesus Christ sparked intense backlash, even from some of his most vocal supporters."

Rep. Jared Huffman told me about Trump admin Christian nationalism:
"They godwash everything they do. This administration does the dumbest and the most extreme and destructive things, and literally has the gall to suggest it’s in furtherance of God’s plan."

Host: Trump has repeatedly raised the idea of sweeping pardons for members of his own administration, saying in a recent meeting, 'I'll pardon everyone who has come within 200 feet of the Oval.' He's already issued more than 1,600 pardons this term, mostly for January 6th defendants.
Alex Jones is not holding back on his old pal Trump after Trump attacked him and others and called him stupid for opposing the war
Boston Globe mock front page from April 9, 2016. Date says April 9, 2017, with giant headline “DEPORTATIONS TO BEGIN” and “Markets sink as trade war looms.”
Ten years ago today, in April 2016, the Boston Globe printed a satirical front page imagining a future Trump administration. The page was called "alarmist," "hyperbolic," "dystopian." But we’ve put up with so much since then it now looks like . . . a slow Thursday?

Trump's threat to obliterate Iranian civilization cannot be forgotten. There cannot be any coming back back from such a glaring and unequivocal sign of Trump's fundamental unfitness for the presidency.
@jenrubin.bsky.social and me on this:

The "duped voter" narrative is a comforting myth. If only we had better messaging.
The reality is tens of millions of voters looked at a platform of mass deportation, ethnic cleansing, state violence, and the dismantling of civil rights, clearly understood it, and said, "Yes, that is what I want."
Americans suffer from a desperate need to believe in the inherent goodness of the American electorate--the idea that a voter in 2024--after nearly a decade of unfiltered, widely broadcast, deeply fascist rhetoric from Donald Trump--was simply "tricked" by a Facebook algorithm or a Fox News segment.
Reporter: I don't think apocalyptic is hyperbole here. He says, 'A whole civilization will die tonight.' He's not saying a regime. He's not saying a nuclear weapons program. The president is saying a civilization.
Reporter: The U.S. embassy in Bahrain is directing all U.S. government employees to shelter in place. This comes just hours after Trump made this very aggressive threat against the Iranian people, saying that U.S. strikes could target all of Iranian civilization civilization.

The Next Level is going live with @timmiller.bsky.social, @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social and @jvl.bsky.social ahead of Trump's insane Iran deadline.
Tune in on YouTube and Substack.
We can have a real Senate impeachment trial for once. And with Republicans like Marjorie Taylor Greene already calling for Trump's removal, we can make it stick.

Do you know how EXTREMELY FUCKED UP SHIT HAS TO BE for me to be reposting Tucker Carlson positively???
