Really appreciate the clarity of the president saying black people are ruining the country and this entire room of groveling empty suits saying nothing bsky.app/profile/just...
Trump, continued: "What the Somalian people have done to Minnesota is not even believable. It’s not even believable. And a lot of it starts with the governor. A lot of it starts with Barack HUSSEIN Obama, because that’s when people started coming in... They want to kiss our country good night."

Look at those smug motherfuckers in the back.
Trump: "It’s a hellhole right now. And those Somalians should be out of here. They've destroyed our country. And all they do is complain, complain, complain. You have her. She’s always talking about the Constitution provides me with – go back to your own country and figure out your constitution."

Remember this moment — when most of the Republican Senate just watched as their party leader went on a disgusting racist rant.

This is who the Republican Party is.

They’re just gutter racists in suits instead of hoods.
Fox News' Will Cain: "I’m sure there are very honorable law-abiding upstanding citizens and contributors from the Somali community here in the United States, BUT..."

He goes on to say "we aren’t going to pretend here that all cultures are of equal value or the same."

YASSSSSSSSS!!!!
Rep. Ilhan Omar: "I hope he gets the help he needs. It sounds like he's trying to deflect from the failures that he's had as president ... he's fought to be the head of the pedophile protection party."

Every time you don’t think they could fly that bigot flag higher…
"Somalia is a rape culture. Africa, the African continent is a rape culture. They rape people there a lot... if we take in immigrants, we need to exclude or severely restrict the people that we come from cultures that are discordant."

It’s gotten difficult to link to sources in 2025 because so many of them are paywalled - and still failing because normies can’t afford subs to every news site.

The free sites are overwhelmingly right wing propaganda sites, funded by billionaires with very deep pockets. Seems like a problem.

What does it say about this country that that the kind of open, rank bigotry Trump administration officials regularly express towards black immigrants apparently has no social cost because of the number of Americans who quietly agree or don't care.

Honestly, though. Dismissing human beings as 'garbage'. Not their ideas or beliefs but their existence. Saying an entire country 'stinks'. It's a boiling frog moment. Forget he's President, or a game show host or a social media name - if the person sat next to you on the bus said this, you'd recoil.

Ilhan Omar rose from a single parent immigrant family where her dad drove a taxi to her current position. Trump is the kid of a racist wealthy slum landlord who headed multiple failed businesses. One of these people is the example of failed ambition and it's not her.
What a racist piece of shit.
Trump on Somalis: "We're gonna go the wrong way if we keep taking in garbage into our country. Ilhan Omar is garbage. She's garbage. Her friends are garbage."

I’ll buy this theory.
i think the honest answer to this is that they don’t care. not in a doomer “we’re never having elections again” way, but they know they’re not getting reputable employment again after this, right wing griftosphere is the best they can expect, they need to keep up their giant piece of shit cred.
Does the White House think this is going to win them support with Gen Z?

The Trumpies think people outside their base are as fervent/feral as they are; they don’t realize Carpenter fans are just normal people who see are simply disturbed by the attack.
this may be true but i dont think the strong response from people like carpenter helps them. because most of her fans are not in the political trenches and her calling them out exposes more people to what sick pieces of shit they are, meanwhile their base is already at peak anger all the time
“Sources in the Trump administration have previously told Zeteo that officials will at times intentionally use popular music from vocally anti-Trump performing artists, in order to trigger a negative response…

They were just waiting for the chance to unleash their inner psychopaths.
Megyn Kelly's not only getting more brazen with her xenophobia, far-right conspiracy theories and coziness with antisemites and racists — she's an unapologetic, bloodthirsty cheerleader for war crimes.

If the facts challenges their assumptions so be it. But "how can I use this to stick it to the libs" is an editorial choice, not a factual one.

I think it’s easy: “Trump’s corruption makes us all less safe and vulnerable to predators of all sorts.”
Here are just two of the victim impact statements in the David Gentile sentencing memo.

We need to find a way to start talking about the victim impact of Trump's crime endorsement wave.

I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately.
There is really an unsustainable level of bigoted gutter trash in the United States.
Cammack: "Look no further than Minnesota and the disaster there where the Somalian community has been really the root of all of the waste, fraud, and abuse that we've seen in the last several years."

I, a lib, do not love suddenly being deeply concerned about national security as a real issue instead of a bullshit smoke screen for a runaway police state
I do in fact stay awake at night sometimes thinking about how the MAGA ghouls are destroying actually-essential counterterrorism efforts in favor of directing resources towards brutalizing elderly taco truck workers
NEW: Oregon could lose nearly $18 million worth of terrorism prevention and emergency funding.

In the past, the money has paid for bomb detectors, law enforcement training and barriers that prevent cars from plowing into crowds.

Siri, show me why legacy media journalists are not cut out to report on the current environment.
For my part, I would say that questioning the framing of some Times stories—for example, the highlighting of Trump’s putative emotions or the foregrounding of what he says (even when, as is often the case, what he says is false)—is not an indication that I want my “views validated.”

its not that insane. the right has been supremely successful at culture war grievance. they are helped by liberals who dont want to engage in these fights and institutionalists who take their bullshit claims as legitimate gripes made in good faith. why not keep doing the thing that works?
Basically they are trying to bully teachers giving them good grades. Knowing absolutely nothing about that topic and become victim. It's totally insane how stupid these people are, it truly is.
