I had a dream that Trump found out about the power of the federal government to quarantine people during a public health emergency. He immediately starts rounding up people with “Trump Derangement Syndrome”.
“How can you want to impeach a president who’s doing such an incredible job? It’s a sickness and we have to keep it from spreading.”
Then the Supreme Court declares 5-4 that people in TDS camps don’t have the right to vote.
OK, you made me go read the Taibbi piece, I think I agree with all of that. His conclusion seems too strong in putting all the blame on the original presumed anti-Trump leaks in the transition period.
What had made me reply to your original post was the line about “leaks to the fake news media”. I think all three articles agree that reporting was an issue, and the NYT seemed to fill in a gap in the CNN story - that those concerns predated Trump. So it wasn’t just a matter of briefing and counter briefing in the age of Trump the president, fake news, supposed intelligence ‘sharing’ and so on. It didn’t occur to me that his take would be that it was only anti-Trump intelligence leaks that were the cause of such reporting.
This is because you lie constantly and always say shit you don’t mean in the moment. You are just full of shit bsing your way through every conversation without any regard for the truth or follow through.
I think we have discussed for years now that you could probably get trump to agree to about pretty much anything in the moment because his brain doesn’t process the viability of anything. It’s all just throw away meaningless chit chat.
Male incels are incels because they don’t believe in doing simple things like talking to women, it’s frightening. Forgive me for quoting from the incel who killed 6 people in 2014’s manifesto but it’s quite illustrative
Dude couldn’t wrap his mind around the idea that the first step to getting laid is talking to women, he thought you just stood there looking attractive and wait for them to flock to you.
Waldman is an aggressive and sometimes polarizing communicator but has proven to be a loyal advocate for the Trump administration and its policies.
During her nearly two-year stint at DHS, she was given the agency’s immigration portfolio and empowered to be the lead spokesperson. She consistently defended the administration’s policy of “zero tolerance” that led to the separation of thousands of children from their parents after crossing the southern border.
When I read that I just figured that she and Miller have an arrangement where she says she’s dating/screwing him (or doesn’t deny it), and she has her career elevated as quid pro quo.
