Remember when Lee Harvey Oswald defected to russia? And then changed his mind? I forget what happened after that.

Yep. Mmm hmmm.

Outright fascist.

Propaganda works. Period.

Cackling bags of evil jelly agree to let everyone smell the cake coming out of the oven. Film at 11.

Forgot the quote marks around “friends”.

Srs wtf If you want to live in russia, do that but everyone’s going to be part of one or more mafias, that’s how they do.

Got him confused with the NY AG from a few years ago. Not him.

After working at a corporate law firm, Vance moved to San Francisco to work in the tech industry. He served as a principal at Peter Thiel’s venture capital firm, Mithril Capital.[21]

In 2016, Harper published Vance’s book, Hillbilly Elegy: A Memoir of a Family and Culture in Crisis. It was on The New York Times Best Seller list in 2016 and 2017. It was a finalist for the 2017 Dayton Literary Peace Prize[22] and winner of the 2017 Audie Award for Nonfiction. The New York Times called it “one of the six best books to help understand Trump’s win”.[3] The Washington Post called him the “voice of the Rust Belt”,[2] while The New Republic criticized him as “liberal media’s favorite white trash–splainer” and the “false prophet of blue America.”[23] Economist William Easterly, a West Virginia native, criticized the book, writing, “Sloppy analysis of collections of people—coastal elites, flyover America, Muslims, immigrants, people without college degrees, you name it—has become routine. And it’s killing our politics.”[24]

So bad home life, goes to Yale Law, works with noted shitbag Peter Thiel and is now doing evil out loud and proud. Great.

An incompetent traitor judge stays on the bench.

[Dionne] Warwick was the first to respond on X, denying she was going and calling the PAC’s announcement “absolutely ridiculous.”

Soon afterward, Martin Sheen, who played the president on the TV series “The West Wing,” took to Instagram.

“I do not endorse RFK Jr. nor will I be attending his party,” Sheen said. He added that he’s “whole heartedly supporting Joe Biden and the Democratic ticket in 2024.”

Cripes so they just said a bunch of people who definitely weren’t coming were coming and now that they’re not we’re taking our ball and going home? Classy.

We’re in the golden era of batshit incompetent fascism.

Could be worse.

no-paywall link to the WP piece?

Wait, you mean russia would use social media and the batshit morons who follow them to disrupt a country’s political landscape???

perch /pûrch/

A rod or branch serving as a roost for a bird.

It’s perfectly cromulent.

“Totalled” doesn’t have the same joi de vivre

But . . but h3r EmAiLz

“Silence woman! Your god commands it!”

I mean - it’s so perfect and horrible, it seems to be the only proper response.

The new Macedonian troll farm talking point. Democrats scuttled Roe.

Because of the electoral college. That forces a two-party system. Which is why we’re in this terrible situation.

It also does nothing to stop a progressive from running as a democrat.

Stunt candidates like Jill Stein are grifters who do not give a single solitary fuck about the state of the world, and anyone considering a candidate like that is also extremely unlikely to run themselves.

I have friends who voted for Nader. They thought they were making a statement too. Then we got into Iraq II and they were very upset by it. We also got John “fuck voting righs” Roberts and Samuel “bitches be hoes” Alito out of the deal. Don’t be stupid.

Watching a bunch of tiktok gronks give their brilliant hot takes on how they don’t have to vote for Biden is like watching a drunken fratboy who’s holding everyone’s phones dancing on a cliff rim because someone told them not to. Stupid fuck. It doesn’t work like that.

It’s a longshot, but I’ll talk to the timelords. I mean - stupider things have happened.

so they’re officially “Texas-based” now eh? Heh. Sure, why not.

Man web search is getting really bad. I can’t find where that happened and normally it would be pretty easy. Was that a Bush II-era thing or was that a Trump thing?
