I wish they would just deny him entry. Hey, you want us to take border security seriously? We don't allow in felons from the United States.

Sorry.

Trump withdrew Jared Isaacman's nomination for NASA administrator. No doubt they found an offensive tweet supporting some extremist cause like "science."

Odds that he'll nominate Musk? Isaacman seemed like a bit of an outlier because, despite being a billionaire, he was not the literal worst person for the job.

I’m one of the most pedantic petty mother ####ers you’ll ever meet. And I can’t even convince myself that’s a remotely good idea. Like walking up to a rabid bear and smacking it with a twig.

It's ok, because the morality police aren't coming for you. Yet. But when they do? Ya, hope you deleted your browser history.


Pretty clear example why Christfascists need to be shot down immediately, and not entertain their ideas around book banning. "Oh, ya, ok, I see that sounds reasonable I guess" is how you end up where the US is. Stop giving them inches.

I like how every branch of government admits that what he's doing is illegal or not within his dominion and yet at the end of the day no one steps up to deny him.

Goes to show how we're all words and hot air at the end of the day. No one's matching their statements with actions.

Instead it's all about appeasing this power hungry dwarf by making exceptions or temporary windows for him to continue operating beyond his capacity and just extending said window while looking the other way with their hands in their pockets.

Even Canada is rolling over to make an exception for a guy who is ultimately a felon that should not be allowed to travel here, because Trump.

All these small concessions just empower him further.

It apoears that Harvard is the only insistution with balls and integrity.

I do like how the big law firms that rolled over for a clearly unconstitutional executive order have started losing people and business.

People generally like lawyers that stand up for their clients.

How does it look when they can't even stand up for themselves.

I always loved the NYC firm that went after MSG's liquor license after a member of their firm was denied entries.

Real conversation with a couple Trump loving coworkers today:

I asked if they think it's a bit deranged and concerning that Trump retweeted a conspiracy theory that Biden was executed in 2020 and replaced with a clone or a robot. They said no, dolly the sheep was cloned 25 years ago so it's possible that technology has made it possible and we know the government doesn't tell us everything. They argued that it's ridiculous for me to say it's impossible because there is a chance it's true. I tried to explain that it's exteremely implausible and there there is zero evidence for such an outlandish claim. They think I'm quite naive and stupid. What an insane conversation.

When truth becomes this malleable it's little wonder that thoughts like these resonate with people that have putty between their ears.

Even playing into it… as Jon Stewart pointed out… that’s the clone they gave us? The guy we saw, that was on purpose? Yikes.

Honestly people like that are beyond hope. I'll just make up conspiracy theories on the fly about anything they're telling me (but act like I truly believe it and it's real), just to get on their nerves and so they can see what they're like.

Whatever industry they work in is horribly compromised, etc. Told a MAGA from a rural area he's towing the line for Big Farma and I spelled it that way lol, dumb crap like that. The 2020s are wild...
