there’s a very surreal “through the looking glass” quality to Biden’s Office when you realize it was designed to mimic the Oval of The West Wing, which was itself an idealized version of the Clinton Oval Office

If members of the United States military are truly being paid their salaries by a private individual, the American people should know who that individual is. Now.

It sounds like he’s talking about a toddler.
VARNEY: Trump announced all trade talks with Canada have been cut off because of a fake ad showing Reagan badmouthing tariffs.

HASSETT: The president I'm sure has his reasons. Sometimes when you're frustrated a timeout is the right call. It's probably a good time to take a break.

Biden pushing this line was bad.
Trump pushing this line is bad.
Bernie pushing this line is bad.

Unless Democrats want to join MAGA's anti-immigration party, we can't start borrowing their rhetoric. We need to make a case for why immigration is good, not run away scared from it.
That show was a documentary I swear

also would have been a funny scenario where there would be 3 movies mentioned (mando, Starfighter, ben) that aren't any of the 3 announced in London (dave's new republic finale movie, rey new jedi order, mangold's origin of the jedi)

just like how doing layoffs looks "good" to shareholders and board members cause to them it equals "saving" money, turning down projects has a similar logic to it
trying to look like he's discerning and judicious about spending money to his boss and the board in hopes that increases the odds of being picked
plus any corporate execs have egos too big to allow a guerilla marketing campaign based on shaming themselves
didn't want to take risks with one of the most agreed upon well executed characters of the ST? all for corporate points
like if the best they can conjure is Jeff Sneider saying "i heard it was bad actually" on his podcast then they're better off saying nothing
the fact that it was made incredibly clear that the decision fell to Disney C-suite means there aren't a whole lot of places to pass the buck to
