Trump begs for every government building to be named after him - Kennedy Center, Dulles, Penn Station - but not the new detention centers like Alligator Alcatraz. Trump doesn’t want history to remember his cruelty, but it will.

This helps answer a question I’ve had: how can so many people yearn for the return of an ethnically homogenous era they didn’t experience? Answer: they did!
To the extent it existed, the nativist era of consolidated European whiteness Trump and his allies pine for — the era of “greatness” they’d like to resurrect — was an anomaly and an outlier in U.S. history. www.ms.now/opinion/elon...

Philip Bump: What Elon Musk was really getting at when he incorrectly claimed “American culture” is of “English-Scotts-Irish origin.”

That's why they want to rig the elections. They know it's gonna be a bloodbath on top of a massacre on top of a political genocide.
They're scared. We need to keep the pressure I n them & apply it even harder.

Yes, and I hope the same is true when we're finally blessed with Trump's dirt nap. He's done nothing of value for anyone other than himself and his billionaire friends.
You can have more money than almost everyone and still be a giant fucking nothing. Combover Caligula proves that daily.

I don't think "invading a country, kidnapping its President, then stealing its oil" is what I would call "diplomacy."
But perhaps I'm not a political science expert like some folks.

Chris Wright on seized Venezuelan oil: "We've sold about $1 billion of oil so far. We've recently signed agreements to sell about another $5 billion in the next several months. So you're talking well north of $10 billion a year ... this is way out of the box, groundbreaking Trump diplomacy."

Not interested in reading any “investigation” authored by Christopher Rufo. Not now, not ever.
The first assistant Chris Rufo hired in 2021 was a Pepe the frog loving fan of “groyper mom” Michelle Malkin. That guy worked for him for 3+ years before going to work for Russell Vought in the Trump administration last year. So Rufo can miss me with the “I’m shocked by Fuentes’s popularity.”
