like vance, ramaswamy is a hateful, resentful orc of a human being, and the reason i think this will hurt him politically — where this stuff didn’t hurt trump — is that ramaswamy, like vance, is also profoundly unlikeable. he has no charm or charisma or anything. just a dipshit.

There is a disturbing number of people who simply think anything they don't understand or agree with is not real, and that anyone who tells them otherwise is a paid liar working for a vast conspiracy against them personally.

I thought I had at least passing familiarity with conspiracy theories until the man sitting next to me at the Lebanon, OH Skyline told me “space ain’t real.” “What do you think is between us and the moon?” an employee asked. The man seemed to think about this for a moment. “The moon…is with us.”

😬 Katie Zacharia's first press briefing was brutally bad 😬 Trump managed to find a press secretary who can barely read, but she does have the number one qualification -- looking like Ivanka Here's a supercut from Zacharia's first briefing, which made Karoline Leavitt seem like Ronald Reagan

Yes. The image is real, and the text on the sign was actually placed at the White House by the Trump administration. So, it is not a manipulated image. History will not be kind to Donald Trump….

Denying three media outlets access to the White House, despite a judge’s order, and then praising Chinese state media for being “friendly”? Xi couldn’t have asked for a better gift. China is one of the world’s worst jailers of journalists, with 100+ behind bars, per RSF.

We basically have a federal government office of white supremacy and we're collectively shrugging as a nation. What is wrong with us?
