I’m curious what Trump offered TikTok to get them to take it down early to make him look like a hero for bringing it back.

4 more years coming of “praise me for fixing the problem I created”

It really is uncanny just how many people have fruitfly brains over this shit.

It's like Reagan and the Iranian hostage situation for idiots.

The $Trump token has given the incoming president an overnight windfall. It’s an obvious route for him to receive anonymous bribes.

The early origins of Bitcoin, if I remember right, was to have a "currency" to buy illegal shit, untraced on the Silk Road. So this is totally on brand for crypto and now it influences the most powerful position of the most powerful nation on earth. Fun.

I'm watching a live stream of NBC News. And I'm going to have to turn it off or mute it because the panel is giddy. They're speaking in such an upbeat way that all of this (and how we got here) is normal and fine. Jesus Christ, man. This is laughable.

One thing I keep coming back to if I think I’m losing the will to fight and just accept this is to remember how much the deck has been stacked against black women in the entirety of this country’s history, and yet they go to battle every day. I can do it for them.

It's hard to take complaining very seriously about all this when you complain about every single aspect yet won't just turn it off.

Biden just blanket pardoned his entire family. Like, everyone in his family.

I'm watching tennis but I keep flipping over to it because I'm a masochist and I seriously haven't lasted more than 10 seconds.

Yeah, have it D.

Elon Musk Inspires Online Speculation Over Meaning of a Hand Gesture

This should not surprise you. Musk is a megalomaniacal twat.

What did surprise me though is a bunch of old jaded homosexuals, otherwise known as The Village People, expect people to see the bigger picture so that they can play the inauguration event without any blowback.

The party of inclusion.

I didn't give it more than a quick glance because I didn't care, but I saw online that the Village People as currently constructed is something like one original member who won a lawsuit and some other people.

So the ADL is just zionist and not really all that against antisemitism anymore. I get it's political, but no, it's really not all that hard to condemn what we all saw.

My buddy said that the DNC reached out for money via email this afternoon. He's fucking over it.

Luckily for him he has dual citizenship with Ireland and he's got a foot out the door. I'm not that lucky.

So we shouldn’t be focused on the middle class and working class? I’m confused.

I had to look up the ADL...

ADL is the world’s leading expert on antisemitism and is on the front lines, shining a light on all forms of antisemitism and empowering individuals and communities with tools to address this age-old hate.

Wow. WOW! Just fucking...

Made the mistake of going on X and Facebook today... Fuck, seriously don't know how I'm going to cope with 4 more years of this bullshit. FB was filled with "You don't pardon innocent people" and this is proof the Deep State is real and out to get Trump. Funny that the responses were mostly fixated on Fauci, who was in Trump's administration and did what he did under and for Trump, but whatever. I do have to say, it's not a good look as accepting a pardon is a legal admission of guilt. I get why Biden felt he had to do it, but I wish he didn't.

As for the Musk salute... I watched his whole speech, and man is he an unhinged maniac! When I saw the 9 second clip I thought it was for sure a Nazi salute, but with all of his manic gesturing, and he followed by saying "I give my heart to you," I don't think he was intending a Nazi salute. And for the 1000s of people posting a side-by-side of Elon's salute next to Hilary and Kamala with their arms out in the same pose with captions like "it's not a Nazi salute when Libs do it." I'd be curious to see if they started with a hand to chest in a Nazi salute, or if it's just an image of them mid wave.

Exactly the part I was referring to. Focus on the upper class and let the gains trickle down is my motto.

I don't care if he's on the spectrum or not. He's a drug-addle buffoon who is goose stepping salutes to the crowd and they fucking love it out loud like this. Because of the plausible deniability that he might have a disability? The guy is promoting rightwing fascism in Europe. He's quoted as saying only the AfD can save Germany. And oh, message received and loved by the Neo Nazis here in America.
