Quick, someone call Jake Tapper, surely as the leading authority on the mental acuity of our leaders he will be able to tell us if this is of some concern, assuming we’re not disrupting his extremely busy and important schedule of harassing Hunter Biden over the agonizing death of his brother
I know it likely does not need to be said, but with Trump's "quiet piggy!" moment its a good time to remind everyone that one common sign of dementia is people becoming crasser, ruder, and generally losing inhibitions about proper behavior.

the best way to get out of an extrinsic game that you find yourself still playing despite disliking is to just force yourself to miss an event in-game. if you're the completionist type it's an extremely fast way to sever yourself from it

Honestly, seeing his attempt at relaunching Oathkeepers just teeth-to-ground faceplant has bee great. He evidently has no dark money backers, no recruits, no access to the inner circle in DC, not even his own crypto scam.

Compare to the journo solidarity shown when Obama suggested Fox News might be more than slightly biased against him.
…and then the rest of the White House press corps pushed back against the president’s gratuitous insult aimed at one of their colleagues?
Oh wait! There’s no sign that anything like that happened!
Because access beats out solidarity, every day of the week.

The disingenuous whiners at the Seattle Times ed board actually suggested that Katie Wilson—mayor-elect and the founder of the Transit Riders Union (who used to do outreach at the bus stop on Third and Union)—doesn't know that the county, not the city, runs the buses. Cry harder, losers

Actual authoritarianism requires expansions of the administrative state I cry, once again ignored.
I mean yeah. But also you need lots of lawyers to do what DOJ needs to do and firing all of them without replacement means you can't do anything.
Absolutely no way to read this and not conclude that the Department of Justice has been deeply corrupted. And this is from a time when career lawyers were in place, pushing back against illegality. With firings and resignations, the politicization will just get worse.

This utter dipshit. Prices are high in part because ports were closed to feeder cattle from Mexico because of screwworm, which is the EXACT OPPOSITE of what he’s saying. Also because slaughterhouses have lost many workers, tariffs on imported beef, feed prices going up, etc etc it’s a rich tapestry.

your average suburban democrat wants half the administration to rot in prison until the end of time, and anyone more moderate than that position is unlikely to hold office for very long
