The US Travel Association recently named this guy as the 2026 Travel Champion. A guy who constantly finds himself at the center of chaos and setbacks for the travel industry, and whose only job appears to be blaming Biden for everything.
Sean Duffy on Spirit Airlines: "I think it's important to talk about why we are here today. Joe Biden and Pete Buttigieg ... "
Part of the reason we ended up with Trump 2.0 is because way too many institutions welcomed Trump admin hacks back into respectable society. And here we are, beginning to do it AGAIN. Tricia McLaughlin is a shameless hack who lied about people that DHS was brutalizing. Shame on CNN.
Tricia McLaughlin is trying to make the transition from professional liar for Trump to cable news talking head. Here she is on CNN just now.
One of the reasons that the enshitification of the Internet has really accelerated over the past handful of years is that UX/UI decisions are no longer made with users in mind, but for advertisers instead.
Forbes chief innovation officer Nina Gould explicitly described ForbesPredict as a "gamification" strategy in a January interview w/ Digiday, adding that the feature will also help Forbes determine "how we might sell advertising against our content."
They will need to build a new wing in the Stupid Decision Hall of Fame for giving the FIFA peace prize to Trump
Trump: "The Iran National Soccer Team is welcome to The World Cup, but I really don’t believe it is appropriate that they be there, for their own life and safety. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP"
I vividly remember MAGA treating the simple ask of masking up indoors for one year of their life as a detonation of the Constitution. No one should take their preening about shared sacrifice seriously one bit.
Sen. Roger Marshall on high gas prices: "Freedom is not free. Americans are gonna have to make some sacrifices."
MAGA freaks would take trips to Target just to fill themselves damaging and destroying Pride displays and Target decided THAT perspective would guide them to prosperity. The only chance Target has at redemption is to announce to the world all the people they fired for making that mistake.
Target plans to spend billions of dollars this year to end a persistent sales slump and to regain its image as a fun place to shop for stylish clothing, housewares, beauty products and packaged food at affordable prices.

Grateful my representative @repstansbury.bsky.social had the self respect to boycott this.
Trump points at Democrats and says, "these people are crazy. I'm telling you. They're crazy." (Note that Pete Hegseth and the rest of the cabinet are standing and cheering.)

Elon's X is a cancerous tumor on our democracy and we won't be able to climb out of this abyss unless we figure out how to truly deal with this.
NEW: Elon Musk's X is awarding Nick Shirley—the creator who boosted the fraud allegations that led to ICE's Minneapolis surge—$100,000 for his "coverage. x.com/XCreators/st...
They're really gonna try and gaslight the public into believing that "shall not be infringed" is reserved for conservatives and "well regulated" is meant for liberals.
Kash Patel: "You cannot bring a firearm, loaded, with multiple magazines to any sort of protest that you want. It's that simple. You don't have a right to break the law." (Pretti was carrying a gun legally.)
"why would someone show up to a protest armed" says the people who organize protests to literally carry guns. share.google/MbcFk6EveJlT...
I know some will point out this must make 2A posturing by the right hypocritical, until you remember this truth about how the right leverages power: The singular belief in the rule of law for in-groups for which it protects but does not bind and out-groups for which it binds but does not protect.
BREAKING: The Minneapolis Police Chief says of the shooting victim: "Based on the information that we have, which is very limited, this is a 37-year-old white male who is a Minneapolis resident." He adds: "We believe he is a lawful gun owner with a permit to carry."

All of this is fucking senseless. Minnesota did not have an immigration problem. Trump sent his Nazi thugs here because he's racist against Somali people and to own libs like Tim Walz. Now two Minnesotans are dead and Minneapolis is on the verge of going up in flames. None. Of. This. Was. Necessary.
Somebody let Jim Jordan know we found some weaponization of government
Mischief Toy Store in St. Paul has until Wednesday to turn over employment records to the Department of Homeland Security as part of a surprise audit launched Friday, just hours after one of the shop's owners criticized ICE agents during a television interview. bit.ly/4r5AFol
Nothing more Alpha than bragging about how you would have held back the tears if you pinched your finger
Trump: "Whoo. I'm glad my finger wasn't in that sucker. That could've dome some damage but you know what? I wouldn't have shown the pain. I would've gone back. Boy did you hear that? That was nasty. But I would not have shown the pain. I would've acted like nothing happens as my finger fell off."

Having our streets torn up and public spaces choked out by massive trucks is a big L for all of us. Also, I've owned a Honda Civic since 2019. Never once has it cost me $60 to fill up.
Mike Johnson: "Under the Biden years, it cost Americans more than $60 just to fill up a Honda Civic or Toyota Camry. And now everybody is buying the big trucks again."
Lol remember when we were supposed to get the tariff checks?
Trump: "I have determined that, for the Good of our Country, especially in these very troubled and dangerous times, our Military Budget for the year 2027 should not be $1 Trillion Dollars, but rather $1.5 Trillion. This will allow us to build the 'Dream Military' that we have long been entitled to."

Whole lot of dudes would herp a derp about "bEiNg A cOnStItUtIoNaL rEpUbPlIc, NoT a DeMoCrAcY" then fall to their knees in submission to a guy who holds the Constitution in visceral contempt.
Trump on Democrats: "They should say 'great job.' They shouldn't say, 'Oh gee, maybe it's not constitutional.' You know, the same old stuff that we've been hearing for years and years and years."
Democratic officials inexplicably still active on Xwitter should abandon that place now. Those who don't are complicit with this grotesque abuse.
so x dot com’s ai generated CSAM and they admitted it may violate US law and … i haven’t seen in anyone in power say much at all or call to stop using the platform
Letting Trump and every co-conspirator off the hook for J6 was one of the top two most consequential moments of our current political situation. The other was allowing Elon to overtake Twitter. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/31/o...
