Esprit de l'escalier

Sure, the guy making fun of plastering everything in gold is the elitist here, not the guy plastering everything in gold.

Do you know how hard it is to piss off C-SPAN? They’re the Mister Rogers of the news business!

Donald Trump admits what DOJ and most of the legacy media refuse to. The U.S. Postal Service mail-in ballot rule was a partisan effort to help the GOP. SCOTUS' decision was, in his words: "a big loss for Republicans."

TV footage shows that Donald Trump spent 9/11 boasting that he now had the tallest building in lower Manhattan. Trump himself says he was at the World Trade Center, lifted out of the rubble by firefighters. For busy voters, it can be hard to know who to trust.

Remember when Kristen Welker would always ask every Republican guest to repudiate the statements of Nick Fuentes, Jack Posobiec, Benny Johnson, or other MAGA racists? Neither do I.

Republicans are why you can't refinance your mortgage

Every day that the mainstream media don't report loudly and urgently that the president is insane is a day in which they're committing journalistic malpractice.

Jesus Christ, this. Platner was given the benefit of the doubt despite having a fucking Totenkopf tattoo on his own skin, while many of the same people are demanding El-Sayed answer for any random comment from anyone who supports him.

biggest political development of the week. clear signal the party is going for court expansion. now our job is to give them the trifecta to make it happen

Remember how they would drag their feet for months when it had the effect of keeping Trump from prosecution. But this? Emergency ballroom.

It’s going to be amazing in the last scene of this movie when she talks to her handler in fluent Russian, just like in No Way Out www.ms.now/news/trump-a...

The guest of honor at the White House Correspondents' Dinner.

Remember when the New York Times made Claudine Gay resign over a plagarism smear campaign by Chris Rufo that found no real examples of plagarism? I do.

Too bad that the New York Times' Eric Lipton doesn't realize how embarrassing this post is. No, Eric, I don't find it "surprising" that you prioritize access over honesty.

this guy’s personal wealth is roughly the gdp of portugal. he could personally cover healthcare of every person living in the state of illinois for a year and still be one of the tenth richest people alive. he’d be just as rich as he was two years ago.

Is it good when the secretary of defense is so fixated on making sure everyone is white and has tv ready abs that he forgets about munitions bsky.app/profile/carl...

Your little oopsie "mistakes" had me worrying for a year of my life about my partner going to jail for up to a decade based on lies likely fed to you by the top of the federal government. Show everyone what you're covering up in these emails and texts. There's a reason you don't want them released.

The fact that Blanche refused to terminate the slush fund in writing for Trump’s criminal cronies as well as his IRS immunity deal proves that his testimony at his confirmation hearing that these things were “dead” was always a lie. They were dead only until he got confirmed.

The thing about a lot of these Washpost Opinion writers is that they aren’t just flaccid thinkers or mediocre writers, but they can also be really terrible human beings

hey, speaking of British history, how's that been working out for UK Labour? after all, they've put your plan in action

Trump is determined to destroy every alliance the U.S. has. It's national suicide. Putin and Xi are pleased.

Fellow Americans, behold the United States President, opining with all the maturity, dignity and splendor of his high office:

I think I'll pitch this: Bob wants to send a message to Alice, but he must survive a gauntlet of algorithmic assassins. Can his superpower of infinite entropy outpace the villain’s ability to decrypt reality before the handshake is complete?

"Don't take my word for it, listen to this Fox News segment" I am begging the establishment centrists to please, please, please shut the fuck up. You're worried about your sinecures and pretending the party itself is in danger. It's not. Shut. The fuck. Up.

"I'm not going to answer that question" (30 seconds later) "I answered that question" I wonder who they think sees this as clever or having wiggled out of the question. And the answer is well it would have to be someone unbelievably stupid, so bingo, that's the only person they're auditioning for

Republican senators are not going to block lying fascist Todd Blanche from becoming attorney general. If they were decent people, they wouldn't be Republicans.

Falklands War today, American War of Independence on Sunday!

Trump doesn’t force people to do bad things. All he did was show people they could get away with being horrible if they really wanted to, and a lot of powerful people decided they didn’t need to pretend anymore. Especially those in influential positions who could push back but did not.

What I'll remember most about Senator Graham is how he sent my friends to die in an unnecessary war in Iraq

Michael Fanone's take on Lindsey Graham is one of the most powerful I've read:

Maybe we should remember Lindsey Graham the way Fox News is remembering him this morning. For his rabid defense of Brett Kavanaugh during his confirmation hearing. Never forget: Graham’s speech helped push Kavanaugh across the finish line and onto the Supreme Court.

The NYT obituary of Lindsey Graham makes no mention of his effort to overturn the 2020 election by calling Georgia’s secretary of state to intimidate him into manufacturing votes for Trump. The Times, like all news media, is GOP propaganda erasing Republicans’ history as election deniers

He fell asleep in a meeting with Turkish President Erdogan, referred to Iran as the "Islamic Republic of Japan", TikTok as "Tic Tac", President Zelensky as "President Putin" & once again demanded the U.S. be given control of Greenland. He's much less dangerous while sleeping than when he's awake. 💤

I'm so disillusioned, I almost don't even care who gets the FIFA Peace Prize next year

I just need you to find 5 goals

This bizarre @newrepublic.com piece accuses me of being a proponent of American exceptionalism and someone who refuses to challenge the basic myths of American history and, uh, that is certainly a take?

By his own admission, he had no idea what a red card was, but he knew -- better than the ref, better than FIFA -- that what Balogun did did not meet the standards for getting a red card, which, again, he had never heard of before. This is like watching JD lecture the pope, but more corrupt.

Billions of people look forward to the World Cup and Donald Trump is tainting it for the entire world. It's disgusting. It's devaluing the USMT and their honest accomplishments in this tournament.

Trext of the Presidential message to America July 4 2026: IMMEDIATE EVACUATION

Genius….

Guy who taped his mouth shut to show how he had been silenced after getting pushback for his decisions fires officials who disagreed with him.
