CNN, CBS, the Wall Street Journal, the Washington Post, Facebook, Twitter, and Roku are all owned by Trump-loving billionaires. Here’s why the media has a liberal bias.

They can never decide if the pandemic was deadly biowarfare or that the libs exaggerated it

No one could’ve predicted that an impulsive, poorly planned war led by a senile narcissist and a drunk TV host would end in a humiliating defeat.

The conflation of all Jews with the state of Israel -- a form of bigotry that has mainstream support since it bolsters the foreign policy consensus -- is incredibly dangerous. Here's one prime example.

It’s funny imagine someone storming up to him and demanding he apologize for his great great grandfather serving in the Spanish-American War. One of my favorite genres of dumb rightwing posts

[NYTPitchbot @DougJBalloon]

A senile Republican narcissist surrounded by grifters and drunks just led our nation to the greatest diplomatic humiliation in its history. Here’s why my next five Atlantic pieces will be about the dangers of woke.

The algae are willing to retreat from the Reflecting Pool in exchange for a $300 billion reconstruction fund paid for by America’s regional partners.

Wild how in the course of four months Trump managed to make both the realist restrainers who backed him and the neocons who backed him, and also himself, look like complete morons

it’s so cool how everyone on the right was like “Trump will make us respected again” when in reality he has just turned America into a global laughingstock thanks to his own incompetence

Government efficiency

[Bill Kristol @BillKristol]

At this point, Trump has been played by pretty much every country in the Middle East, from Israel and Saudi to the UAE and Qatar, and now by Iran itself. He’s like a Baby Huey in a world of grownups. He makes Jimmy Carter look like a canny master of geopolitical maneuvering.

[Matthew Sitman @MatthewSitman]

We on the left who live in blue cities and states still celebrate traditional American sports like basketball and support our local teams, unlike the rightwing elites currently in the White House

@mattyglesias He's in such amazing health they're bringing in teams of doctors to study him in hopes they can learn something that will help others.

"Even her transphobia can feel, at times, like an imitation of male behavior: in trans women, she found a kind of woman toward whom she could direct the contemptuous misogyny of a right-wing man." 🎯

extremely funny Trump found time to to the Knicks game but not his own son's wedding
