My favorite response from the government to a news story always has to be when they call it an illegal leak *and* a hoax. But I guess unfortunately we can throw out that “congratulations on no leaks” cake for Hegseth.

No doubt to commit radical Islamic terrorism in every red state in the name of Hamas.

Did I miss the announcement that Mayors are now given dictator-like authority or something? The fuck do they think he’s going to do, open a Gulag? If you’re someone worried right now, name one policy he is going to be able to implement that requires such a degree of concern that Trump should...

When you really want to get into the discourse but you didn’t read all the details. Though he might honestly be right that it’s more likely that America amends the Constitution before electing 5 other current Dems to be President.

I feel very strongly that if the federal government actually withholds federal funding from a state as a punitive measure that the state should get to withhold the federal taxes from its citizens. Realistically neither should be legal, but the idea of just not giving California any federal...

It’s not that you’re doing anything wrong by posting a quote from a grifter. But your response was that the topic wouldn’t have come up without your post, and that’s only true of this particular thread. The discussion is otherwise happening man.

Fuck off. If your problem is that Mamdani is a Democratic Socialist, we can talk about Economic literacy. If your problem is where he was born, you might just be a piece of garbage.

Genuinely fascinating results here. Hard not to wonder if he won solely due to a combination of anti-Trump sentiment and the fact that Andrew Cuomo is a poisoned candidate for any voter who has heard more about him than that he was once the Governor.

They’re just doing good cop, bad cop on global trade. Seems like a good way to run the economy.

I mean, you’re right that this topic wasn’t likely to come up in the meme thread, but the efficacy and justification of the Iran strikes has absolutely come up. I know this because I’ve been getting (respectfully) dragged for my thoughts on it.

I genuinely don’t know what Lutnick brings to the table besides a faithful adherence to Trump’s dogma on trade. He’s largely unable to speak to any economic issue with enough competence to even spin the insanity effectively. At least Bessent can capably pretend the tariffs aren’t an issue.

Nah, that’s not what I’m saying. What I’m saying is RFK is using largely unsupported science as the basis for his public policy proposals. We can and should always look further into what we put into our bodies, but he has a history of clinging to claims that are not always strongly supported...

But this seems to imply that just because Republicans dunk on JoJo that she has something useful to add to the discourse. Regurgitating talking points about a ceasefire she doesn’t know the details of because it’ll make Trump look bad doesn’t add anything of value to the discussion. Don’t get...

The two parties couldn’t be more different when it comes to policy right now, but the grifter scene and the way they fit into the approach used by the parties to influence public opinion are remarkably similar. She is part of a larger problem of people seemingly having no real position on issues...

I think we would generally be better served as Americans with the world of medicine focusing on treating diseases we haven’t otherwise eradicated through previous medical interventions.

I don’t dislike JoJo because she’s a woman, it’s because she’s the left-wing equivalent of DC Draino.

That’s a hell of a way to frame the federal government’s attempt to sow distrust in vaccines.

I’m so fucking stoked to watch a bunch of horrible diseases come back.

Just calling someone an antisemite doesn’t make them an antisemite.

I obviously don’t want any further escalation but I guess my only question is if any sort of key components are mobile in some way, though I know a lot isn’t. They weren’t exactly quiet about hitting Iran’s nuclear sites in the days leading to the strike.
