Yeah, exactly -- “snitch” “rat”-- prison parlance and a prison mentality. Whistleblowers are trying to get the truth to the people.

Have to imagine that half of Ainsley Earhardt’s job is just to not roll her eyes at all the pseudo-masculine posturing she sees around her. It’s like every man who goes on that show immediately starts presenting like a mandrill.

I hope he starts a fucking witch hunt* in his staff and they start turning on him and leaking like crazy as they are under the siege of his abuse and threats. You have to imagine almost anyone working for him is a self-serving asshole and they will save themselves if they feel cornered and Trump doesn’t seem like the…

You sound surprised.

Also, Giulani should be encouraged to make as many media appearances as humanly possible. Right now, he’s the Dems’ greatest asset. 

There you go. If Trump had ever even once faced a consequence for his actions, we’d all be a lot better off. But here we are. He gets told, “you’re violating laws” and he says “do something about it” and nothing happens.

“I did that bad thing, so what?” has been the mantra this shitstain has lived his entire life by and not one single fucking person in a position of power ever stood up to him and said “It’s illegal, that’s what” and held him accountable.

The referendum was not binding and parliament represents the people.

That as may be - this comic, or at least this idea, is still very much dogshit.

Probably the dumbest thing in recent DC history was making Barbara Gordon Batgirl again rather than letting her remain as Oracle, one of the few truly original characters of the past thirty-five years. I flip between this and replacing Wally West as Flash with Barry again.

“Relax, skinny boy, I got this. You’re attacking a child. You’re a grown man, have some couth. Maybe on your podcast you can get away with whatever you want because nobody’s listening, but you’re on television. Be a grown up when you’re talking about children.”

Oh I’m so glad comics’ most prominent disabled superhero was wiped from continuity in order to be brought back as a... “ robotic menace in the vein of Marvel’s Ultron.”

Because “evil robot” is so much less of an explored space for comic books than the old Oracle, who doesn’t even have an easily-referenced identical…

the latest scandal in which he is accused of improperly extorting Ukrainian officials

Feel like it’s a little of both. Like a fan when you sleep. He needs that noise to feel comfortable. And at the same time your wife constantly complains about it. Win win. 

Willing to bet he doesn’t realize that by comparing this to an ambush what he’s actually saying is that he wasn’t, at that time, prepared to defend his own supposedly firmly held beliefs.

“As Crenshaw notes, the interaction was clearly set up to be on video.”

Arrrgh, Pence’s body-language. Defensive, guilty, impotent fury.... Remember his reaction quote at the time? He saw a system, instead of human beings.

Poor little fascist snowflake gets “ambushed”. He’s a bully and a fucking coward that hates the people he served with and abuses the power the people have given him to reward the greed and prejudice of assholes like Trump.

Hey what did people call people who supported Hitler but didn’t hate Jews?
