Chris Carlton

he’s gonna give a speech in front of an AI generated banner that says, “ŃMIMMS1ØN ACĞŒMPLISSHEP”

I don’t know, man, maybe we should learn not to trust malignant narcissistic fascists whose worst traits are calcifying and their brains are getting worse as they die with power

This 37% zone where Trump has settled is close to the percentage of people who are authoritarian (about 1 in 3, per social science studies)

I feel like it should be bigger news that Trump is now openly considering a military draft. Young men haven't been called up for a draft since 1972. Not during the Gulf War. Not during Iraq or Afghanistan. He received five draft deferments but is now open to drafting your kids.

There's something deeply obscene and broken about the fact that Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are bombing elementary schools in an illegal war of aggression, and there's still a sense among the opposition that it has to be explained in terms of gas prices in order to get American voters to care.

I get yelled at for saying this but for many hundreds of years people went to university not to get diplomas or be employable but because immersion in the humanities was considered foundational to a good life, and school must return to its original purpose: the joy of learning.

“Our government is treating the suffering of the Iranian people as a backdrop for our own entertainment … But, in the end, we lose our humanity when we are thrilled by the destructive power of our military. … The longer we remain blind to the terrible consequences of war ...

something underappreciated about Trump is that nobody loves falling asleep in boring, interminable meetings more than him

A Reductress post features a photo of Kristi Noem with the headline, “Kristi Noem Put Down for Being Too Hard to Train”

Screaming

Historian here history first time as tragedy the second time as farce.

Try your damndest to live your life so that if you were fired from your job and about to give a speech that someone would tell you.

The competition for the dumbest member of the United States Senate has just heated up with the elimination of one its strongest contestants!!

🤣🤣🤣

"I know he throws any and everyone under the bus the second it becomes expedient to do so, but for me... it will be different" - a seemingly neverending parade of pathetic hangers-on

Trump just put the only senator without a bachelors degree in charge of homeland security

If you’re having a tough day or maybe need a little pick me up, just remember that someday, after we have crushed the fascists, motherfuckers like Kristi Noem will be held responsible for their crimes against humanity.

Am I happy Kristi Noem was fired? Yes, definitely. Do I still wish her ill and to never have a day of peace for the rest of her filler faced life? Also, yes.

“He had a feeling” is a crazy reason to start a war

When we talk about Baby Boomers not getting off the stage: In 1997, the US president was born in 1946.

In 2007, the US president was born in 1946.

In 2017, the US president was born in 1946.

And next year in 2027? The US president will have been born in 1946.

kind of astounding to consider that Trump won the 2024 election to a significant extent because Biden's support for Israel became so politically toxic, then he decided a good governing strategy would be to become full on a client state of Israel

Go @hillaryclinton.bsky.social. Absolutely 💯 percent correct.

Haha! They’re throwing Vance under the bus.

I think the president has shingles and I hope he's in so much fucking pain 🥰

This description could also apply to Putin, Netanyahu or Orban

Not exactly the type of people you would want to list as a comparison to a President of the United States

No rules of engagement is straight up Nazi war fighting.

Jesus. F*cking. Christ.

You know what it's the mark of the beast. Trump has the mark of the beast

The latest “explanation” for the war, this time from Rubio:

- we knew Israel was going to attack Iran

- we figured Iran would retaliate against us, coz we’re Israel’s bitch

- so we attacked Iran first
