Skeets Of The Day

 

Yesterday --

 

In the space of half a day, the new administration has trashed the Constitution, subverted the independence of the DOJ, granted a broad amnesty to traitors, abandoned the global community on climate and public health, and launched a wide-ranging attack on minority rights.

Trump just literally eliminated an Executive Order to reduce the price of prescription drugs. They are ripping you off, personally. They never gave a shit about the price of anything.

Trump's TikTok shakedown --

 

If you want to ban TikTok on national security grounds, do it. If you want to set objective standards for TikTok or anyone else doing business in the US, do it. These are policy choices. But having the government shake them down like a mafia boss? No way.

Historian of fascism here. It was a Nazi salute and a very belligerent one too.

More catch-fart tech bros bend the knee --

 

If you Google "inauguration day," you're greeted with an animation of fireworks forming the shape of the American flag. Google has never done something like this for the inauguration, sources told me, out of fear of appearing partisan. But that's changed now, with Sergey and Sundar attending.

What they said (ffs, Schumer!) --

 

Respectfully (and I genuinely mean this), I’ve never heard a single regular person ask for “bipartisanship.” That’s inside nonsense. They want things to work. If the other party refuses to work for people, be the ones who will. Fight for people. Make it plain who isn’t, and who THEY’RE for.

This has been the Dem leadership approach to everything for a long time now. Hoping that Schumer’s obeisance here will awaken liberals who lash out at critics of the party and defer to its leaders reflexively.
