Absolutely deranged, bouncing wildly from The Washington Capitals to NatSec to YIMBY to Judaism to US politics. I also take requests for song parodies about geopolitics, but do not take requests to stop.

It’s clearly just a mislabeled yellow but I still think it’s funny

Raytheon Executive: I know you’re skeptical about buying American again. But hear me out. The MIM-104 Patriot is the only surface to air missile system with a proven track record of success against the US Air Force.

Danish Defense Minister: Continue.

Do I understand correctly that after shooting down three of our own planes and murdering 50 schoolgirls, our Secretary of De- excuse me, War, bragged about there being no rules of engagement?

Sup chat this is Slouching Towards Bethlehem with your boy The Rough Beast, and it looks like today’s stream could be a big one, as some of you might’ve already seen there are rumors going around social media that the hour has come round at last, so we’re gonna get right into it

None of them are remotely serious - one is a former school board member, another has no experience at all and is only running to try and recruit someone else à la Dean Phillips

All my life, Democrats have bent over backwards to run scrupulously scandal-free administrations, while Republicans have wallowed publicly and unapologetically in crime and corruption ... and Democrats have gotten zero advantage for it. Zilch.

That's fair, though at least in the races I'm tracking there really hasn't been that kind of movement either. I hope you're right, though!

Not a single substantial challenger for Warner yet, though I guess the deadline isn't until April

The Quintessential Epstein Files Email - The American Prospect Jeffrey Epstein and his friends standing up for Mary Jo White against Elizabeth Warren tells you everything about the class war at the heart of the files.

Guys I found the best Epstein Files email. The one that illuminates an elite class that's cocooned themselves into an unaccountable shell of wealth and privilege, fighting to protect their secrets and offenses.
I could write a novel about this email.

Someone conduct a poll that asks "should the government inspect the genitals of children as they enter a public restroom" and use 85/15 "no" response rate to conclude that the public strongly supports trans rights.

US Women’s Hockey team is just dominant against Finland right now, I wouldn’t be shocked if they’ve been in the FIN zone for more than 70% of play time

I don't know if non-lawyers understand how insane this statement is. I honestly can't think of anything remotely comparable in non-lawyer speak. I guess the closest would be a surgeon saying "Imagine if I had to wash my HANDS before doing surgery!"

Benefit 1) the data center melts because there’s no way to cool it

Benefit 2) non-trivial data transmission delays, which make everything worse after billions spent to allow software to accommodate it

Benefit 3) Kessler syndrome

the Epstein files make it very clear why the MeToo backlash was so extreme and why so much of elite society preferred Donald Trump ruling us like a king to the barest hint of accountability

Really feels like our elites became increasingly insular and incestuous and what we are experiencing post-2016 is their collective temper tantrum at having their divine right to rule us questioned

I don’t understand what I’m looking at. Epstein was talking to Weiss’s girlfriend about purchasing a house from Bill Cosby?

The best way to farm clout as a leftist is to pull a Hasan and say Dems suck. The best way to farm clout as a centrist is to pull a Bari and say Dems suck. The best way to farm clout as a conservative is to pull a Charlie and say Dems suck. The best way to farm clout as a fascist is, you guessed it,

The current Democratic coalition is every single person who has any idea how society works, any interest in maintaining it, or any scraps of empathy for their fellow human beings, and that's about 47% of the country, tops.

"I'm coming to Boston and I'm bringing hell with me."

"Do I expect violence to escalate? Absolutely."

using federal resources to illegally seize the goods of another country and then diverting the proceeds to accounts only the president can control is the kind of thing the framers would’ve seen these men hanged for
