Sure would be nice if courts had some sort of mechanism to enforce their rulings.

Merely watching that guy “dab” was worth it. And he did it three times!

The economists are only “stunned” because they’re used to dealing with logic, reason, and numbers that make sense. You have to throw those things out the window when dealing with Mango Mussolini, folks!

Copium is a helluva drug

Trump probably got tired of the many, many jokes and political cartoons suggesting that he’s subservient to Putin, so he wanted to look tough. Putin decided to allow it, since he understands the importance of projecting a strong image, so he’s letting Trump talk big about tariffs.

That’s my interpretation, anyway.

We don’t hear about politicians with backbone often enough. Probably because there seems to be relatively few of them lately.

This will be… interesting

“We don’t avoid talks; it’s the breach of promises that has caused issues for us so far,” Pezeshkian said in televised remarks during a Cabinet meeting. “They must prove that they can build trust.”

This is Trump we’re talking about. He’s setting the standards impossibly high lol

They need to be careful. This is the highest quality “low quality” fact I’ve ever seen.

Well, at least the Trump administration might actually pretend to care now. When Americans are outraged, they don’t give a shit.

Be sure not to offset the costs by eliminating executive raises and bonuses, or by trimming their ridiculously large salaries! Those are sacrosanct!

It’s a sad day when Reagan’s foreign policy seems sensible.

Gov. Ron DeSantis is in favor of the bill.

Of course he is. No low is too low for that man.

I know it’s bad to dehumanize people, but sometimes I can’t help myself when we’re talking about a person who completely lacks empathy. It’s like they walk and talk exactly like a person does, but they’re missing something essential.

May I suggest Goya?

Do folks think this is legitimate news, corporate news meant to intimidate protesters, or a combination of both? I’m curious to hear how people interpret it.

Consequences! I’ll be damned!

At first, I wrote a reply asking what tangible good a lawsuit would do. I wrote that Trump would ignore any ruling that was in Columbia’s favor.

I deleted it ten minutes later. No, a lawsuit may not do any tangible good, but I was missing the point. RESISTING is the point. Protecting academic freedom and freedom of speech is the point. Fighting fascism is the point.

Fuck Columbia. I hope they carry this shame for the rest of their existence.
