In the parts of the interview they showed on last night’s Daily Show, the interviewer actually brought up some of Trump’s family’s business dealings and said, if Biden’s family did it you’d call it corrupt, how is this different? Apparently all Trump had was “I didn’t know about it.”

The war in Iran is getting a lot of the blame for Republican losses, and this is a chance for the losers to get some revenge on the way out.

The new people who were elected mostly don’t even start until January! There’s still time for the people on their way out to fuck things up.

That seems to show a shift of one point, and it’s based on exit polls, which will probably have a bigger margin of error than that. The bottom text even says “subject to final weighting”.

Nixon went on to say that Democrats were wary of throwing in behind a Black woman in the South following Kamala Harris’ 2024 loss

A Black Republican was elected over a white Democrat in Florida’s gubernatorial election. They may be more interested in partisanship than racism down there.

They wrote “uninformed”, not uniformed.

Trump added a number of Canadian products to the 50% tariff list to offset the tariff relief provided ⁠in his order, including carpets, paints, waste, shampoos, cocoa powder, wooden coffins, ice cream sticks, air-conditioning machines, chest freezers, archery equipment and canoes.

The headline doesn’t tell the whole story: Trump removed tariffs from same Canadian products, and added tariffs to others. This is strictly to help Collins, not provide any improvement in the US’s relationship with Canada.

Here, the DOJ argues that the presence of a presumed spoiler candidate on the ballot, Daniel J. Sullivan, will taint the race by confusing voters who intended to vote for the incumbent Republican senator, Daniel S. Sullivan. It demands that the judge block any certification until an investigation can “determine whether votes cast for Daniel J. Sullivan were meant to be cast for Senator Sullivan.”

They do have a bit of point; Republican voters are certainly not the most informed. But don’t the ballots list a candidate’s party beside their name?

If the Republicans get stomped in the midterms they’ll get productive on fucking things up in the time they have left before the changeover.

Trump wants the tariffs to reduce the trade deficit, and the trade deficit means the US spends more on imports than it gets from exports. Working tariffs would have reduced imports enough to bring them below exports.

Mind you, Trump has put tariffs on things there aren’t domestic replacements for, and he’s pissed off other countries enough that exports have probably gone down.

They’d take out DC first, and maybe Mar-a-lago for funzies.

pull off the classic politician move of kissing a baby.

The 10-year-old boy

Ah yes, a 120-month old baby.

I can’t tell if Buckley is in favour of individualism or collectivism there. Real Christianity seems like it would lean more towards collectivism, but right-wingers might see collectivism as one step away from socialism.

They have such poor empathy they’ve decided empathy is a weakness.

The caption on the image says it’s from the Republican Midterm Convention. None of the people pictured are named in the article; don’t blame the writer for an image someone else likely chose.

Don’t waste money on an extra flight for Trump, just stick him in Air Force One’s cargo hold.

In this administration, that’s probably all totally OK and her main offence was not intimidating the staff enough to keep them quiet.

Sure, not like there’s anything more useful in need of building. Like, say, housing. Or even the factories Trump is trying to bring into existence with tariffs.

The rich can afford good meat so this won’t affect them.
