I don’t mean to be a spoiler of good times but you should not party with the president if he fairly regularly threatens to jail or potentially bankrupt you if you don’t write the news how he thinks you should
Like, skip the dinner and just go to the after parties if u really wanna party

you do not have to hand it to tucker carlson or marjorie taylor greene or alex jones or megyn kelly. they're all rats who see trump as a sinking ship and they're getting ready to jump in preparation for their next act. you do not have to fall for it.
HOW DO YOU HAVE A MISUNDERSTANDING OVER A DIPLOMATIC AGREEMENT? HOW DO BOTH SIDES NOT AGREE TO TERMS WRITTEN ON THE SAME PIECE OF PAPER? I'M LOSING MY MIND.
"This is what you get when you elect Republicans."
Every Dem within 100 feet of a camera needs to be saying this repeatedly.
Every time we elect Republicans, we get dumbass wars, tax cuts for rich people, and financial crises. Every time.
Fucking say it!
these are the stupidest people to ever live
The famous Andor line is that "tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle." Here is a perfect example of that through malicious compliance: Idaho forced the city of Boise to remove its Pride flags. So the city painted rainbows everywhere else.
does it include understanding basic technical concepts
almost!
ethically hollow and isn't actually technically proficient despite broad press mythologies painting him as a supergenius engineer
where have I heard that before
fired by Comcast for sexual harassment
fired by Paramount for leaking insider information
can't wait to see where he fails upward to next
Iran's 10 point plan seems to put them in a better position than they were in before the war

New: 150 unionized ProPublica workers are on strike TODAY over AI, layoff protections, wages, and more.
They're asking readers to not visit ProPublica or engage with content on other platforms. It's the first work stoppage of its kind at the newsroom.

I take no pleasure in saying that I and my @propublicaguild.org colleagues are on strike.
It shouldn't have come to this and i can only hope that seeing the overwhelming majority of staff walk out today opens management's eyes and convinces them we're serious about our demands.
a functional press would explain to the reader that these are all propagandists and rank opportunists who hold no real fixed values outside of the pursuit of wealth, attention, and white supremacy
correct
it's so exhausting and disgusting and makes me want to spend the rest of my days with the moss
all the time and energy and emotion everyone has to put into parsing out the pointless diarrhea of a murderous, vacuous sociopath whose deepest thought is that this all makes for great television
Screenshot of a Truth Social post by Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump). The text reads: "Based on conversations with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Field Marshal Asim Munir, of Pakistan, and wherein they requested that I hold off the destructive force being sent tonight to Iran, and subject to the Islamic Republic of Iran agreeing to the COMPLETE, IMMEDIATE, and SAFE OPENING of the Strait of Hormuz, I agree to suspend the bombing and attack of Iran for a period of two weeks. This will be a double sided CEASEFIRE! The reason for doing so is that we have already met and exceeded all Military objectives, and are very far along with a definitive Agreement concerning Longterm PEACE with Iran, and PEACE in the Middle East. We received a 10 point proposal from Iran, and believe it is a workable basis on which to negotiate. Almost all of the various points of past contention have been agreed to between the United States and Iran, but a two week" [image cuts off].
we're being held ransom by a sociopath with a head full of diarrhea and a corporate press incapable of being honest with itself
if I were 15 years younger I would have done at least a dozen newsletter posts on the war and our soggy ass media at this point, but I'm so disgusted on a fucking bone marrow level I struggle to engage with it
I was genuinely and deeply radicalized by the Iraq War(s) and the surrounding media coverage, and where we are now is so exponentially more diseased that I genuinely don't even have the words
it really can't be overstated how polluted and cancerous U.S. media is
please give your money to honest, independent, credible reporters
The White House Correspondents Association is planning to "honor" Trump at its dinner three weeks from now.
No way.
It was egregious before. Now it's obscene.
lol, absolutely no need to apologize!
I think it would be for the best
I think he may be. But I'm not sure he has the drive to actually do it. He's got a good thing going sitting around his Hamptons closet getting paid for pretending to be interesting and useful
coulda woulda
eh I think if the economy tanks and the AI crash and regulatory corruption impact all collide in a wave you could see something much sooner
Americans have a three second attention span and are highly propagandized, but there's always a limit
give it a little more time
the name of my new album!
