  1. Never forget the fact that in this timeline, if you dropped the actual Ronald Reagan in it, saying, doing, and believing EXACTLY what the real Ronnie did, but you gave him a different name, he would be universally reviled by MAGA as a woke commie libtard soy boy. Zero hyperbole, they would hate him with the white hot intensity of a thousand suns.
  2. Yes. Because if there's anything that will cure our ills, it's TWO Arch Mannings.
  3. I'm holding a space for $300 billion. It's, like, several 5 gallon buckets and my bathtub. So, I'm like, halfway through my plan. Now, all I need is $300 billion to fill them with.
  4. Why would the GQP back off from that? He said what they believe. This IS the current GQP motto, no matter how many times @Enchubben tries to say differently (the proof is in the pudding: these are the people the party and admin is actively elevating to positions of power): “We need competent white men in positions of leadership. … The founding fathers were wrong that all men are created equal … We need to reject that part of our heritage,” There ya have it. That is what they believe. It is what they nominate, it is what they confirm. Stop letting them gaslight you at all. If you are not a white man, this country is not for you. Don't listen to me, LISTEN TO THEM.
  5. FIF ya. Y'all are just pissed that I've been correct at around a 95% clip about fucking everything that has happened, is happening, and continues to happen, under this regime. Sorry for regularly pointing out how un-American and anti-Constitution and anti-Rule-of-Law damned near everything is. The truth hurts people who insist on living within the comfort of their lies.
  6. "Is our period of abstinence over?" asks man currently raw-dogging a hooker.
  7. Yeah, mostly this. And y'all know my pretty unambiguous stance on Nazis (I think they are bad....which is apparently a controversial and un-American take these days, to hear the admin tell it).
  8. Truly....imagine if this exact thing were happening under Obama. Fox news would have wall-to-wall coverage of "OBAMA DESTROYS THE PEOPLE'S HOUSE!" They might even pre-empt one of their reverse mortgate commercials to air extended coverage. It would be the only thing they talked about for months. Now? Not a fucking word.
  9. Bingo. It will all be viewpoint-particular. Want a rally to shout about how Charlie Kirk sitteth at the right hand of God the Father? Want to build an entire curriculum around the Patriotism of Turning Point USA, and it's Lord and Savior, Charlie Kirk? No. Fucking. Problem. Have a single professor in a communications course play a clip of Charlie Kirk saying one thing, and then the opposite thing? YOU'RE FIRED. Even contemplating the idea that this proposed system would be content-neutral is insanely disingenuous. Just stop if that's what you're trying to insinuate. When you want to impose a system that protects your viewpoint and punishes all opposing viewpoints, you set vague standards that look EXACTLY like these.
  10. See the "unconstitutional conditions doctrine." Viewpoint-driven shakedowns like this as a condition of funding are unconstitutional. Or, I mean, they WERE, back when we had the Rule of Law. Now that the new rule is functionally The Divine Right of Kings, all Hail Lord Trump the First, it don't make a shit. So, I'm just reminding you of what the rules once were. Add them to the pile of things that don't matter anymore.
  11. What a coincidence -- those happen to be the only people who don't fucking matter at all, not even a little bit.
  12. Bingo. When you realize that the primary purpose of our incarceration system is to keep black and brown folks "in line," it all makes sense. Our prison system has only as a tertiary or lower purpose actual "public safety."
  13. This. And entirely subjective. Like, understand that a professor saying "last century, fascist movements had these common traits: repression of minority groups, high-level corruption and crony capitalism, etc. etc.".....will be deemed a violation of the "you can't say anything anti-conservative" rule. When you understand that "anti-conservative" is both ANYTHING remotely critical of actual things done by the regime (so, no discussion of ANY negative impacts of Trump tariffs), or even of things that are objective truths (see discussing the history of fascism) that makes the regime feel "targeted." It's hot garbage contrary to the first amendment, academic freedom, and every fucking American value and ideal.
  14. "No evidence of a crime?" Did they not get the part where he's brown?
  15. It's a pathetic cult. That's it. There's no deeper layer to it.
  16. Yep. Either way, UT has successfully branded itself as "cowardice U." A shittacular look, but then, our state leadership wants to turn the university into "Prager University at Austin," so they are just fine with that. Man, the one hallmark of this era that I'll never understand is how all of these pathetic fucksticks are falling all over themselves to bow in supplication and gargle the balls of the most pathetic figure in American history. The complete lack of self-respect and dignity blows me away.
  17. A smart man doesn't limits his options.
  18. Huh. All this story really tells me is that the dynamic of "power and politics trump the rule of law/justice" is even more egregious than it has been in the past. The very same folks who yell from the highest mountain that "pedophiles are the greatest threat we face!" are also the folks who do the most to protect pedos when they are affiliated with their team: football, political, cultural, religious, etc. The "he's a good christian man" defense is a 100% "get out of jail free" card, now more than ever.
  19. Dear Meriwether: he doesn't fucking care about you, or anyone else but HIM. And he never has, and never will. So, cordially, get fucked. All the way fucked. Then turn back around, and get fucked again going the other direction. You support an entirely self-interested narcissist, you'll get shit on. It's a rule with 100% accuracy. Maybe don't do it. But, we understand....you gotta hate dirty beaners and queers, and also those dirty libz in tha big cities, and that overrides everything else.
  20. I mean...game respek game. But the story says the suspect was 36. Dude, I ain't been 36 in....a long time. Besides, my stalking is much smoother. I casually walked by the Parliament House in Helsinki a while back, and gave it a nod and a Now, we wait for her to figure out where here heart truly lies.
  21. This. The victims will be punished here, because they broke the code and didn’t “keep it in the family.”
  22. "Good work on this, guys. Y'all chose a solid font, and the margins look great. The grammar seems strong. Give yourselves a big pat on the back!"
  23. All I know is that these guys gave me a new way to soft-sell my out-of-shapedness.....I'm "athletically allergic." Yeah, that's the ticket.
  24. What I've been saying for a decade now. Once someone has opted OUT of the Rule of Law and norms, there is no play -- none, not a single one -- within the Rule of Law and norms that is a winning play. AND, once once side has opted out of the Rule of Law and norms, then those things are over. Since we're living a wrestling kayfabe, once one side starts swinging chairs grabbed from ringside, any "legit wrestling" is over. It's now a chair-swinging fight, completely outside all rules and norms. All that is left is to (1) win at all costs, (2) impose crippling punishment/sanctions to destroy the offenders once you have the power to do so, then (3) reconstruct the institutions of a democratic republic the best you can. But with better guardrails and failsafes this time. Knowing that nothing is perfect. And at this point, all options are shitty. But you best grab a fucking chair and start swinging if you want to survive.
