To this admin, fucking up is a pro, not a con. I’m sure this is only the tip of the iceberg.
From an operational security perspective, this is the highest level of fuckup imaginable. These people cannot keep America safe.
The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans
U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.

the thing about chasing what you think is public opinion is that if and when things turn you will have made a bunch of statements and taken a bunch of stances that you’ll have to disavow. probably a better strategy just to say what you actually believe and stand by it. anyway, this guy sucks.

“We are IN our documentary moment.”
Jane Fonda said, and I agree, "Have any of you ever watched a documentary of a great social movement...and asked yourself, would you have been brave enough to walk the bridge?... we are IN our documentary moment, this is it," accepting her lifetime achievement from #SAGAwards.

This is needlessly cruel.
Hunter Schafer was ‘shocked’ that her new passport lists her gender as male, following President Donald Trump’s new gender policies. ‘I’m never gonna stop being trans, a letter on a passport can’t change that, and fuck this administration,’ she said.

ANORA would be a great Best Picture winner. Let’s see if it holds on!
It may have gotten blanked at the Golden Globes, but after winning at DGA and PGA tonight, ANORA is our Best Picture front runner. The PGA stat is especially telling: Since 2009, the PGA winner has gone on to claim the best-picture Oscar all but 3 times.

Fight 🔥 with 🔥
Ron DeSantis pioneered this tactic by refusing to allow special elections for Democratic-leaning House seats with a vacancy, holding them open simply to hurt Democrats. I don't think Republicans really have any standing to complain about NY Dems copying the playbook. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/03/n...
