DOJ has to release the Epstein docs no later than this Friday

Next few days will only get wilder

Who? Name some names

The Koch Brothers, for example - who entered GOP politics around Reagan - were against Trump before and after he ran

US voters elected him, twice

OK, American voters and the Supreme Court

If not, what's your claim?

"We’re approaching a 'more anarchic form of globalization without rules,' said David Miliband, the former British politician turned global humanitarian"

Without whose rules, for whose benefit?

Baby boomers* were working & paying taxes, with far fewer pensioners as a proportion of the population to support, and less demand for adult social care

*my only generational point being the "boom"

Father is "half Mexican", but that's irrelevant because Nick's a racist and I suspect his dad has no Amerindian heritage

He's thus a full member of the all important "white race", which trumps nationality

Tipper's stickers were '85, Footloose '84 - back in the days when rock could still, almost plausibly (to some) be portrayed as a danger to society and liking it was an indicator of "cool"

Kind of looks like a Golden Age VHS cover?

Bessent doesn't realize that most people do their own grocery shopping and check the prices before putting something in the cart

Wiki says his father is "half Mexican", but no idea how much of that is of Euro or Native descent, and NF certainly identifies as white (despite also being part Irish and Italian, long excluded from the category)

AFAIK it's not immigrants per se he has problem with, it's non-white immigrants

Hey, just around the time Tesla's Full Self Drive rolls out

No, because Fuentes, AFAIK, has none of the internal contradictions of the GOP, thus none of the incoherence

Compare/contrast with Vance, who has kids with a non-white, non-Christian woman yet aligned with white Christian nationalists and claims to be worried about "civilizational erasure"

Thanks!

Anecdata, but the consensus on r/conservative seems to be Trump's post was vile and counterproductive

Seems appropriate this news was presented by a gambling company

Certainly doesn't to seem to mean a UK (or Europe) flooded with American media and companies, or attempts to defund the BBC

Really shows, as if needed, that Cole is terrible at his job

Piers Morgan would have grilled Tomlinson and got viral clips that made himself look good, drove clicks and got revenue

Part of me loves the idea of Tommy & Co taking themselves out of the dating pool for the majority of humanity because of racism

Has a Farage party ever had a convincing #2?

They both make my skin crawl, but Farage and Trump (or at least Trump 1.0) both have a dark charisma that some people clearly adore
December 15, 2025 at 10:46 AM
Maybe it means no one wants to think through the implications of the racist, anti-immigrant & anti-(((globalist))) rhetoric with regard to GOP's own internal contradictions re. PoC, immigrants, pro-Israel members / supporters

Fuentes is the only figure who isn't burdened by this - hence his rise
