You accidentally say it in public because you say it all the time in private with your friends and family.

Not sure, but including metaphors and dialect would probably help.

Sundowning.

It seems more likely it was in anticipation of a Trump order for National Guard to fire at protestors, e.g. "why can't you just shoot them in the legs?"

That dates all the way back to Bush 2 in which the warmongers scoffed at the "reality-based community" and claimed they could create their own reality because "we're an empire". We're still living with the results over here.

If it were the other way around they'd be filing charges under the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. Pity the FCPA doesn't cover incoming bribery as well as outgoing.

Trujillo?

Admittedly most of the precedent is for America going in and removing left-wing leaders, not necessarily dictators.

Still can't beat the marzipan though.

How about pistachio marzipan, Ritter?

Kushner is the commissar. He's there to rat out Rubio to Daddy if Rubio tries anything disloyal like actually trying to negotiate.

Funny how persistent all this Victorian kitsch remains.

I've seen a massive flock of green parrots in a park in Northern Europe, does that count as "the wild"? How about monkeys on the street in Delhi?

Why not just limit replies? Lots of people do. I think it's a fair response to obsessives mobbing you.

They all need to get off this NOW. "Ship them out to be judged by foreigners" is not only tone-deaf, it weakens people's understandings that these are crimes under AMERICAN law and if we can't address them our system will fail.

Yes, 10 children allegedly died from the vax during the whole pandemic (no evidence) and at least 377 children had died of covid by April 2021.

When they go to jail these snake oil salesmen should be made to listen an hour a day to a recording of a child dying of whooping cough.

Dunning Krueger isn't in the
DSM but maybe after this era it will be.

Didn't read it but the premise in the headline is blindingly dumb. Indigenous tribes ARE institutions. The US government signed treaties with them (which they then broke because they thought like Bari Weiss.

Dunning-Krueger at epidemic levels here.

Beautiful!

Not nearly as creepy as the ones of 19th century families posing with the dressed-up dead bodies of their loved ones.

And yet people somehow got comfort from that....

Reminded of what my econometrics professor always said: garbage in, garbage out.

"I have invoked Favored Nations Status"....

As a longtime trade expert I have absolutely no idea what this means. I can't even begin to speculate. (Google "most-favored nation" but it won't help....)

More gibberish from the guy who has the authority to take us into war....

Sick that this is so true.

That was my first thought. Drug smugglers don't take passengers and there wasn't a lot of cargo.

Framing complaint: "trafficked" suggests people snatched off the streets to be sold into slavery. More likely they paid to be taken to the US. "Migrants being smuggled" is a better term.
