Do not underestimate the ability of the well-connected to fail upward.

I had to double-check if that was a fake tweet. It’s not. He’s a fucking idiot.

To be fair, he’s taken very, very good care of China and Russia. I’d have said that Mary Poppins couldn’t have taken better care of her wards, but I think a more apt description would be Nanny the St. Bernard in Peter Pan honestly.

Someone better lock up those Trump sons until he’s back on his feet.

Next year: “Asian land wars are good, and easy to win,”

They lobbied for opening bears ears and grande Escalante to mining and drilling, fuck them.

Do not know if this is true, but I read yesterday, that kids from Marjory Stoneman High were tweeting as the shooting and lock down was going on.

Think you can give a teenager who was in the fucking school when this happened a break on some shock induced hyperbole can’t we?

The American idea dying in the US wouldn’t be such a bad thing if it weren’t happening like this. Plenty of countries are carrying the torch of that idea for us.
