Fun Fact: The President of the goddam United States paid nearly $6 million in damages today to a woman he raped. Once upon a time, this would have been the only news you heard.
Wenn FIFA und IOC den Bann gegen Russland aufheben, obwohl das Land weiterhin einen Vernichtungskrieg gegen ein europäisches Land führt, sollten europäische Länder und Verbände keinen Cent mehr an diese Organisationen zahlen.
FIFA: "no of course this was not political interference, we would never allow such a thing"
Trump: "it was all me. I interfered. Politically."
Spectacular.
I wonder how much money Elon, the richest man in the world, have donated to charity compared to his political giving?
How many Hospitals has he built? Whats the name of his foundation?
The moral calculus here is simple.
For decades there was bipartisan congressional agreement to fund lifesaving programs. 80% of Americans agree with providing food and medical supplies to the worlds poorest people.
Elon was neither elected nor confirmed. He illegally and gleefully destroyed USAID, which did not save any money - in many cases he just disrupted distribution of supplies already purchased - but he did kill many children.
The closest analogy would be burning down a food bank causing people to die of starvation. It was an illegal act that was wasteful and caused harm. You can’t defend it by saying “what obligation do we have to fund food banks?”
Voting for Trump in 2016 was ignorant.
Voting for Trump in 2020 was malicious.
Voting for Trump in 2024 was evil.
Still supporting Trump in 2026 is irredeemable.
Question: Is there anyone on earth who really believes Democrats vandalized the Reflecting Pool?

They’re in the cult.
Ik sprak net iemand die zei dat Nederland kapot is. Vanuit zijn verwarmde koopwoning, met zorgverzekering, pensioen, auto, glasvezel en drie vakanties per jaar. Hij zei het op zijn iPhone, onderweg naar de supermarkt vol eten. Het leed was nauwelijks te overzien.
"How could the United States Senate confirm Tulsi Gabbard? How could it confirm Pete Hegseth? How could it confirm Robert F. Kennedy Jr.? How could it confirm Kash Patel? The answer is as depressing as it is obvious because courage has become scarce."

Goodness. Russia didn’t invade Ukraine because of NATO, because of biolabs, because of n@zis, because family values.
Why is it so hard to process this is simply a colonialist imperialist war of conquest, war for control and domination of a sovereign free nation.
