Who actually wants to spend their entire working life doing the same job in a factory? Also, I suspect that Lutnick hasn't worked a single day in a factory his entire life, and he never will.
Lutnick: It's time to train people not to do the jobs of the past, but to do the great jobs of the future. This is the new model where you work in these kinds of plants for the rest of your life, and your kids work here and your grandkids work here

All this racist stuff is a reaction to national leadership abandoning the mainstream civic nationalism that ~90% of people actually want. Bring that back, almost all of it ends.

A targeted tariff ending this sort of stuff would be totally fine. The problem is the moron in charge of our government doesn’t want to do targeted, constructive things, he wants to destroy the economy because he doesn’t understand what trade deficits are.

Two things that people online get consistently wrong now: 1) Criticism of bad speech is not censorship. It's also speech. 2) Supporting a legal right to say hateful stuff does not require defending the content of the bad speech or associating with the person who says it.

Yet another excellent take by Noam.
I don't know if Fetterman is ok or not, and these days I typically don't let the internet lay out only two opinions to choose from. But the people who are concern trolling about his health now 100% do not give a shit about his welfare, only his vote.

I regret to inform you that the MAGA drag queen believes that having black men in sports is a conspiracy to emasculate white men. I know this sounds like a bad game of Mad Libs, but I’m just reporting the news.
Ok now that I’m outed as a “racist” I have something else to say: White men who watch, worship and obsess over black athletes playing a game that has nothing to do with them are CUCKS. The NFL and NBA are little more than black worship, brainwashing and mindless distraction for the ever-asleep, emasculated White man. Beta Whites will scream, cheer, shout and fight over what some girlfriend-punching black athlete did in a game but don’t care that their neighborhoods are being taken over by Islamists & Africans. They don’t even vote in local elections but can tell you everything about King LeBron (who hates them) & other monsters. It’s a psyop—a deliberate effort to put blacks on some sort of pedestal in order to emasculate Whites. Also: Rap. Same in Europe with soccer. In the 80s the players were British & French. Now they’re all Jujugooboo and Banafofo. And yes—they’re good at sports. Who the F cares? Why do you somehow feel a connection to them? Why platform & worship them? SMH End black worship. Awaken, White Man

Have you considered the possibility that he's just stark raving mad?
At this point, it’s easier to argue that Trump is actively handing the government to the Democrats than that he’s trying to preserve it for the Republicans. The only alternative is more disturbing: that his goal is to establish a monarchy, theocracy, or dictatorship — one where Republicans rule indefinitely, not by consent, but by force, with no mechanism left to oppose them.

Protect all speech *from the government*. It doesn't stop there from being consequences for said speech. People don't get a free pass to say whatever they want without social sanction. Because that's the First Amendment right of association for everyone else.
First Amendment is supposed to protect all speech.

"putin to participate in the Red Square parade only via video link," Reuters. The "greatest military commander" of all time is a pathetic coward.

Question: “You support terrorism?” Hasan Piker’s response: “I don’t support the state of Israel and I don’t support the state of the United States of America.” This is the face of the progressive movement in the U.S.—no wonder they keep losing.

Let there be even the slightest wisp of a shred of a hint that Fetterman could be replaced by a Republican, & all talk of him resigning or facing a primary will vanish & be completely memory-holed.

I kind of think that having the government fund news sources is dangerous and a bad idea and if this Administration doesn’t convince you of the potential for mischief/malice I don’t know what to say.

This is nearly word for word the same asinine argument I heard from Black people in 2020 over why they supported BLM.

The Ukrainians are exceptionally innovative, and fighting hard to defend their independence, culture and desire to be aligned with the West.
‼️As per Russian sources, yesterday evening, a Ukrainian unmanned surface vessel armed with an R-73 air-to-air missile shot down a Russian Su-30 naval fighter roughly 50 km west of Novorossiysk—marking the first time in history that a military aircraft has been downed by an unmanned maritime drone.

I will never understand the mindset of a young British woman who has no skin in the game going into a Jewish area and abusing Jews in the name of an ideology that would strip her of every liberty she so forcefully enacts.

During Covid, my local NPR station ran a segment about how evil people were for hiking at a local park without masks on They literally called them ""DROVES! Unsafe droves!". That is what @maddoxrules thinks is "the most neutral news org there is"
People cheering funding cuts to NPR & PBS have never listened to it. NPR is one of the most neutral news orgs there is. It has the trait of every good news organization: it's BORING. If you're feeling strong emotions watching "the news," it's because it's entertainment, not news.
