You should take the job, just for the halibut

That’s what she’s counting on…

I think it’d Donald Jr who will run, they won’t even need to change the monograms on the gold toilet seat covers

I mean, she would have made an adequate President, in the same way that Velveeta can be adequate cheese.

Shit, this means she’s gonna run for President again

but the comment sections on reddit seems so inorganic

That’s not proof of anything, it’s just bots talking to bots there, even on a good day.

I tried to slot a trip into my schedule, but I have too much crap in the way…

Note that it is still a small proportion of higher-income earners who are underwater, it’s just just a higher percentage than before:

the delinquency rate for households earning at least $150,000 now stands at about 0.34%, versus 1.75% for low-income households.

So it’s not like the rich are suffering, it might be certain people in certain high cost of living places who overextended themselves …

Yeah, so what? It’s not like he is ever going to suffer any consequences for it…

Are you kidding? Her people couldn’t even manage an email server

I mean, of course not. Do you really expect them to vote for a liberal?

Look on the bright side! All this money is going to be contracted out to companies that these new oligarchs control, and by the time they funnel most of the money to their wallet only a handful of new prisons will actually get built. We will have to hope the grift can get in the way of the the new Holocaust that Stephen Miller is planning,

No, the fumes are from the shit in his diaper

“YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO PAY FOR AN ENDORSEMENT. IT IS TOTALLY ILLEGAL TO DO SO,” the president wrote in a Truth Social post. “Can you imagine what would happen if politicians started paying for people to endorse them. All hell would break out!”

So, I conclude that Trump pays people to endorse him regularly. Quick, we need to audit the Nuge and Kid Rock…

Oh, this is definitely part of his 2028 campaign to win over Trump voters. “Something changed, this isn’t the same guy you voted for…”

Meanwhile, nothing’s changed. This is how Trump always was. If anything has changed, it’s that Republicans have let him surround himself with people who will never say “no” to him. Even Republicans in Congress know how batshit crazy his policies are, yet they vote for them anyway.

Newsom will say anything to get elected, though. I hope someone primaries his ass good …

I was about to whine about the fact that no judge or official could really tell Hegseth what to do, then I read the article:

In April, Hegseth’s Trump-loyalist advisor, Patrick Weaver, took offense to the suggestion that he should have to submit to testing being carried out on those close to the Defense secretary. An ally of President Donald Trump and White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller, Weaver’s complaint resulted in a phone call from the White House to Hegseth’s team telling them to knock it off.

Ah, he’s going after other Trumpers, that’s why. The ouroboros may be starting to eat itself…

There’s a side effect to this which I don’t think anyone is picking up: an inherent devaluing of the work that immigrants do here. They pivoted from “immigrants are criminals and rapists” to “OK, maybe some aren’t, but the ones who aren’t are doing work so simple your kids could do it”.

It’s because that was his day job. Somehow. It’s what provided the means for his hobby of diddling kids.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeffrey_Epstein

He never finished his college degree, and after dropping out ended up teaching math at a private high school. He got fired for performance issues (and perhaps getting a bit too close to his students), but had made friends with one of the parents of a kid at the school, who happened to be an executive at Bear Stearns. He got a job trading options, and eventually spun that out into his own consultency, where he made more money than he (or anyone) really deserved to. He seems to be a chronic failure, but knew enough key people so that he could always fail upwards.

There are a lot of really weird coincidences from his early career, though: that High School was run by Bill Barr’s dad, Donald. (yes, that Bill Barr, who was Trump’s AG at the time Jeffrey Epstein “killed himself” in jail.) And Donald Barr actually wrote a trashy sci-fi novel in the early 70s in which sex trafficking of teenagers is a key plot point. Enough coincidences to keep conspiracy theorists going for decades.

Don’t think he got off easy, though. Managing his sex life in the 80s and avoiding STDs was his personal Vietnam, after all…
