Becoming in this case is a multi decade process.

Kalshi, the new kind of government pension.

The question is how much did Lori Chavez-DeRemer bet on the timing of her resignation?

The thing about Kash Patel is I don’t think Trump cares that much about one of his lackeys getting bad press, I think he cares when they get more press than him.

How will we know when Infowars is shifted to parody though?

Curious how Kash acting like alcohol Goofus in the locker room will play in his lawsuit.

I’m more comfortable making the argument that it would be beyond their skill level to pull it off rather than he’d worry about killing a bystander. He’s shown no great remorse subsequently for people dying on his behalf.

I go with the theory that a shard of glass sliced his ear. It would explain the lack of scar and that really wasn’t much blood for an old man on thinners.

How can there be discovery when Kash will cite national security at every request?

Kinda wondering how many of his grandiose dream erections will ever exist outside of AI.

Personally, I believe it would involve a level of competence and planning never seen from this crew, but I love it for them that MAGA is spreading the theories.

Apparently

Is Kash Patel’s lawsuit against the Atlantic coming from the same magical “they’ll fold easily” thinking as Trump’s initial foray against Iran?

I kind of feel like if people want to go down a faked assassination attempt rabbit hole, it’s an entirely understandable reaction to the constant barrage of conspiracy stoking from the White House.

If these technofash assholes want to be villains so badly, Democrats should feed their dream and treat them as such.

The Palantir manifesto is the obvious endpoint of years of edgelord posturing - actual villainy.

I think one reason Trump and these freaks are natural allies is they’re all operating from the deepest well of resentment.

If only Democrats were as comfortable legislating against Nazi curious tech billionaires as Republicans are trans kids.

Palantir posted a manifesto that reads like the ramblings of a comic book villain Palantir shared 22 points excerpted from CEO Alex Karp and Nicholas W. Zamiska's 2025 book, The Technological Republic, and they're troubling.

Trump Library Saga Takes Dark Turn: Where Did Millions in Funding Go? Four huge media conglomerates forked over $63 million in “settlements” earmarked for Trump’s presidential library. Democrats are trying to track that money—and the latest developments don’t inspire co...

Easy, the bribes went to the Trump Widows and Orphans Fund.

In his “most notorious [job] interview,” Karp met Louis Mosley, an Oxford graduate whose grandfather Oswald Mosley was the British fascist leader during World War II and once named “worst Briton of the twentieth century.” As soon as Mosley sat down, Karp began reciting from memory, for several minutes, one of Oswald’s 1939 speeches demanding Britain seek peace with Nazi Germany. When finished, Karp executed tai chi moves and walked out without saying goodbye. Mosley sat stunned, convinced his family’s past had torpedoed him. Instead, he was hired and now runs Palantir’s UK business.

Crazy? Would a crazy guy do this?!?

Flying to the Poodle Room on his own dime would get expensive.

I’m not justifying it, just trying to understand how they keep reporting on him.

When it comes to Trump, I’ll bet a lot of reporters grapple with is it a lie if he believes it.

The nice thing about this year’s White House Correspondents Dinner is Trump can lie to all of the reporters at once instead of having to call them individually to parse out his bullshit.

Imagine if this guy showed up at your front door and said, “I’m here to collect all of your personal information and while I’m doing that I’m going to clear up some misconceptions about the Nazis.”

Say what you will about the dotcom bubble, at least the CEO of Pets dot com didn’t glaze the Third Reich.
