The FCC is investigating Disney for checks notes…
DEI programs.
The same people screaming about “big government overreach” are now using the government to punish companies for hiring diverse talent.
Totally normal
not hypocritical at all.

I bought a Tesla because it was fast like a rocket ship. But now every time I drive it, I feel like a rolling billboard for a man dismantling our government and hurting people. So Tesla, you’re fired!
New ride coming soon.

Iowa-the first state in the nation to go to great effort and expense to roll back civil rights. How does this make sense?

Elon musk is the richest man in the world, he could be funding hospitals, medical research and universities. He could be solving the climate crisis. He could be feeding, hungry children. Instead, he’s trying to make sure that your grandmother doesn’t get an extra dollar of Social Security.

"Law and order" in the Trump era: if you bow down to the head of the U.S. government, he may help you - whether you're awaiting trial for sex crimes in Europe or doing time in the USA for physically assaulting police.

The people who voted for Trump because they thought he’d pull the U.S. back from foreign entanglements and overseas adventurism are really among the prime suckers of our era.

Pretend that random bands of Clampets and Ewings were wandering around your town and you’ve got a pretty good idea of what it’s like in DC right now. We are going need a ton of sage come Tuesday.

We took a chance and went out in DC today. We figured Trump followers would not go to the National Museum of Women in the Arts. We were right!
We do need to burn sage all over downtown DC first thing Tuesday am.

It’s the time of year for mentioning one of my favourite ‘untranslatables’.
‘Poronkusema’, in Finnish, once denoted a distance of around 7.5km, which is roughly how long a reindeer can last before needing to urinate. ‘Poronkusema’ means ‘reindeer pee’.
