Trump’s America
The fatal flaw with this discourse is that it's still rooted in some sort of institutional integrity and normalcy. Trump's authoritarian power grows by the day. He owns the courts. He owns every single person in his administration. He owns Congress. He owns the media. He owns half the voters. Everything he's doing now with ICE and immigrants is just the starting point. American dissidents are next. If we don't take these realistic threats seriously, it's over.

Donald Trump Assassination Attempt
A Presidential assassination attempt on live TV was basically swept under the rug and memory holed by everyone. What a world.

Immamac is a fascist
In all seriousness, the ability to talk about news/politics on here is important. Most of the internet is fucked now and social media has become harmful. Bots and algorithms rule the roost. But for all its faults, this site is filled with real people and real opinions. Sure we have posters who like to troll, but in general these are legitimate human conversations between people who have a united passion (UT sports). It'd be nice if we could all give each other some grace, but even without it, it's important to have this message board. I wish people would stop complaining about a medium we are lucky to have at this point.

4th of July Texas Flood
God, the @humblebrag Twitter account was so good. It feels like a lifetime ago. I just looked it up, the account was active from 2010-2015 until the user (comedic writer Harris Wittels) passed away in 2015. At the time it was such a fascinating phenomenon and harmless, funny criticism of human behavior. Now we live in social media hell with Trumpism, bots, and foreign bad actors. Fuck, we are fucked.

Texas Offseason 2025 - Archmania Is Upon Us
Happy to see him break down that Mississippi State game. I don't know why - whether it was the terrible game flow and close score for 3 quarters, playing a shitty SEC team, or something else - but it felt at the time like our fanbase really didn't appreciate how good Arch was in this game. Mississippi State bled a lot of clock with 3 yards and a cloud of dust offense. But Arch was phenomenal, with lots of wow plays that we haven't seen at QB for a long time. The Johntay drop on 3rd and long (easy TD) was basically a turnover and still pisses me off. Arch played an A/A+ game, if it was a B+ or less the game could have been a nail biter at the end. I don't give a shit if it was against bad competition, the film doesn't lie.

Ghislaine "Sgt. Schultz" Maxwell: "I know NOTH-ING"
The next AG will cover up future crimes, then will be fired as well. Rinse and repeat.

Ghislaine "Sgt. Schultz" Maxwell: "I know NOTH-ING"
What Trump is doing here might work. Throwing MAGA a bread crumb that they treat like a loaf. Their God King is listening to their concerns, and the blood of Bondi might satiate them.

Everything these bozos do is so obvious. This is all made up drama to force Bondi out. The new AG says "unfortunately the case is closed. There's nothing we can do and we have to move on." No one wants to take blame for the coverup so ditch the bitch and hope it satiates the moron base. Sorry Pam, I know you're a loyal MAGA, but you're still a woman. Bye.- 4th of July Texas Flood

I think this is just a ploy to push Bondi out.- Ghislaine "Sgt. Schultz" Maxwell: "I know NOTH-ING"
No. It's trolling.- 4th of July Texas Flood

Read the quotes again. Slowly. The reporter never criticized the Mayor. It was an all encompassing question, and the Mayor chose to be personally offended and deflected.- July 4th Hill Country Flooding Tragedy
Not only that, but pressing them now doesn't allow these officials time to create bullshit excuses and narratives. Truth >>>>> decorum.- July 4th Hill Country Flooding Tragedy
So fucking what. It's part of the job. When the shit hits the fan at work, do you cry about how unfair it is, or act like a man? Where does the mayor's feelings rank on the unfairness scale compared to 200+ innocent people dead?- July 4th Hill Country Flooding Tragedy
Oh no, the horror! Politicians get unfair questions all the time, and they have agency to respond accordingly. Why you're so upset about it in this particular case is curious. Being a mayor is a hard and often times thankless job. This dude signed up for it. Stop treating him like a victim.- Ghislaine "Sgt. Schultz" Maxwell: "I know NOTH-ING"
That photo is fake.- July 4th Hill Country Flooding Tragedy

It's perfectly ok to Monday Morning QB when innocent people die. Our governmental systems failed them and a diagnosis is necessary.- Ghislaine "Sgt. Schultz" Maxwell: "I know NOTH-ING"
It's interesting (but not surprising) that right wingers are now running with the "well, I guess Ghislaine Maxwell is in prison for nothing" sarcastic (?) talking point. She was charged for trafficking minors to Jeffrey Epstein. Yes, there is clearly a cover up from Trump's DOJ regarding other clients. But it doesn't negate why Maxwell was charged and prosecuted. Just the dumbest binary thinkers. No nuance. No attempt to fire a few pistons in the brain.- Elon Musk: Nazi traitor piece of shit [Confirmed]
