It is interesting to me* how this total military, geopolitical, & economic omnishambles is not being covered in the press with remotely the same fierce EPIC DISASTROUS FAILURE urgency that Joe Biden’s not 100% surgically clean withdrawal from 🇦🇫 was covered 🤔
[*It is not remotely interesting to me]
None of them can talk coherently about strategy or goals but they are completely in sync in all their macho posturing because that is all they’re really focused on. Everything else is just whatever limply offered fiction is convenient to them at the time.
It's looking increasingly like these guys thought that if they could wreak more death and destruction than the other side then they would be respected as strong powerful men and they would "win" and that would make them big important heroes. Very possibly they had no rationale deeper than that.
NEWS: It was never about the children.

it really is unfortunately this simple - we elected the stupidest narcissists absolutely convinced that they could just go and "assert warfighter dominance" or whatever, those pussy liberals didn't wanna FIGHT!!!, and are just now shocked that the enemy gets a vote too
he can be beaten but when beaten must be destroyed
This will be important for the eventual war crimes trial
No it’s literally just Jesus being quoted using the word in the KJV. We know it means money, that’s the whole point.
“Erm, akshually…”
Yes we know, that’s literally what it says in the New Testament. Maybe stick to your scriptures and let us handle ours?
Exactly this:
Trump pardoned this J6 rioter. He’s a sexual predator and a few days ago a judge sentenced him to life in prison.
And the Times found a sharp partisan skew: “For every dollar donated by billionaires and their immediate families to a candidate or committee associated with Democrats, five dollars went to Republicans.”
Have you heard of Citizens Bank? No? Well Citizens Bank happens to finance ICE detention centers through CoreCivic & Geo Group.
Citizens Bank might need to learn the lesson that the public taught Target! Surely mass closing of bank accounts isn’t good for a bank
Honolulu (Oahu) and Kahului (Maui) are forecast to pick up about half their annual rainfall in less than 5 days, with most of it falling in 48 hours or less.
Just stumbling around trying to figure out how the world works.
Knowing that the Kremlin has sent its political strategists to help him, I’m afraid Orban may soon start pushing even more deranged nonsense, things like a “Ukrainian terrorist attacks” in Hungary or a “Ukrainian assassination attempt” against him.
Pete Hegseth spent $2 million on Alaskan king crab, $7 million on lobster tail, and $15.1 million on ribeye steak in just one month. — But please, tell me again how the elderly who’ve worked their entire lives to get $800 a month on Social Security are bleeding this country dry.
What's especially wild about Target's anti-woke moment is that if they'd simply stuck to their own stated principles, and toughed it out through presidential disapproval for, like, three months, they'd look like heroes and would be more popular than ever
Ed Pol means the libs have all the money from a retail consumer standpoint.
They are more upscale. They are also trendsetters, so they create new customers. They also happily boycott a company for the rest of their lives without ever going back, even if they are the sole person participating in the boycott.
and “the libs have the money” is something the business community knew until they talked themselves out of it in group chats! there’s a reason basically every commercial pre-2024 was a sanitized smiling multicultural rainbow capitalist tableau
wine moms are our strongest soldiers and also the engine of American consumption and you alienate them from your stores at your peril
just remarkable how much the executive class of this country misread a complete cultural shift into a tiny popular vote victory largely based on a backlash to inflation because of their own biases
they really might have ridden the anti-woke train all the way to bankruptcy court, an all time brand fuckup that should be taught as a cautionary tale in business school for decades
Frankly, we've seen enough: it's time to fire all the cowards who toadied to Trump and disgraced their institutions in the process. CEOs, lawyers, university presidents. Clear them all out, replace them with people who stood firm. Remake our society with leaders who have principles and courage.
(One reason we know that unionization has been of massive benefit to both teachers and schools is that there is an educational sector that is mostly NOT unionized - charter schools - and the jobs in them are dismal, while their educational performance mostly ranges from mediocre to bad.)
Teaching is, by and large, a good middle-class profession, and it has secured that role because teachers are represented by powerful, well-organized unions. Things are not perfect; there are serious problems with teacher compensation. But misstating those problems can help teachers' enemies.
