Obviously Alex Jones is an evil man who should be buried in sand with his head exposed and left to die of exposure. But it would be extremely fitting for him to be US Press Secretary. He's already the character of American US Propaganda Chief ripped from the most unsubtle political satire ever written.
this is just a repeat of "We can push Biden to the left". What good did that do?
What do you mean? That worked. I mean, sure, I'll grant you that Biden didn't make any sort of push to bring about policies that help working class people, but he did pose on that UAW picket line. That's the most progressive thing an American president has done since FDR. That's progress, and like any progress it's slow. Gradual. I expect that, at this rate, in forty years we might get a president that will be willing to say out loud that it ought to be illegal to extrajudicially kill homeless people.
I spoke to a conservative family member the other day who said they didn't like Walz because "he's a total socialist." I know words like socialist don't have much meaning to most Americans, but what the hell is that supposed to mean?
I asked that, in nicer terms, but didn't get a meaningful response. I called Walz a moderate, and said that he hasn't even called for any New Deal style programs to be added to the democratic platform, much less socialism.
Think they made Walz turn down his rhetoric because they want to run a center-right campaign to attract would-be Republican voters that are put off by Trump? If that's right it's got to be one of the worst electoral strategies, maybe ever.
She really is like your drunk catty aunt, isn't she? Her being so uncharismatic and bad at maintaining a politician's aloof persona would almost be charming if she wasn't a power hungry psycho happy to sanction evil if it means she can grab a little more for herself.
Biden’s hubris coupled with the cabinet’s refusal to invoke the 25th ensuring that democrats cannot win the 2024 election.
THEY’RE ARGUING ABOUT THEIR GOLF GAMES!
Why strike Iraq?
John Bolton must be in an insane blood-rage today. Hope he never gets what he wants.
This is so funny. You've got Biden going to the media every day basically promising to go to the border rifle in hand to personally execute migrants if it can secure the money for Ukraine and they still won't agree to it and act like there's some conspiracy to let migrants in to vote for Biden or something. It's a level of obstinacy that's becoming almost sort of admirable.
Has there ever been a faker issue than the border?
I'm getting word here that the Dangerous Sniper was saved by the Ghost of Kyiv.
A school district recommending its employees actively combat government agents trying to abduct children is pretty grim stuff.
