Obama looked hella good in that tan suit, fuck the haters!
This should be unconscionable and yet it is just an average Tuesday.
I take it as a sign that things won’t last much longer.
When the thing that’s supposed to help keep the government in check is instead running cover for them, the top will start wobbling
God I hope this comment ages well.
That’s very optimistic. History shows that once a regime is established, power is consolidated, the media is in line and protests are repressed, ousting the regime and rebuilding democracy can take a long time.
Russia had this level of obvious corruption and pillaging of state resources in the 90s, and where are they now?
BIDEN AND harris also wore one, it broke thier minds still.

People voted for a criminal known for corruption. So it isn’t really unexpected or a scandal.
PS, thanks to the internet, there’s a fuckton of independent news media that is covering the CapOne money laundering accounts. If your news diet isn’t covering it, it might be time to browse about for sources to add to it.
100% “flood the zone”.
The worst part is now that the strategy has been completely and utterly validated, they’re all gonna do it. This is the new status quo.
I’m on mobile for the moment, but for a good deep dive into this, hunt down the Behind the Bastards two parter on How The Liberal Media Helped Fascism Win
Part one gets into the Jewish owned German newspapers that sided with NSDAP because their owners identified more with ownership class than they did their Jewish working class brethren.
Part two is about the present day news media bending the knee to Trump.
This is a screen cap of the media covering the story though
Now the President has a tan stripe on his pants and people rarely say anything! What progress!
No it wouldn’t. It’d barely register and maybe take up one spot in the 24 hour news cycle, then everyone would forget in two weeks tops. Let’s not kid ourselves. Trump isn’t special. He’s not better at media manipulation than any other retired actor. Our media just doesn’t report things that people with money don’t want reported, and more importantly, they never report on anything for more than a week.
Gosh, maybe millionaires shouldn’t be your presidents. I seem to recall the tan suit being reported for at least 3 days though
During his presidency, Trump has lied an average of 169 times EVERY DAY.
I’m dead serious, I genuinely don’t think I even speak 169 sentences a day and I work with people.
85,654 false statements and counting.
The trick is to stop at 4,294,967,296
That’s why you use 64 bits counters and identifiers.

The Media has accepted that there is no “busting Trump”, they’ve given up trying to give him scandals… They know they “don’t have him this time”, his fanbase will never care.
Man they put out an anti-terrorism thing where they straight up said, “We will find you, and we will kill you.” About Americans with a marginalized political identity (Anarchism, in this case), and it straight up wasn’t in NYT AT ALL.
