Worst sales pitch since Amway 1999

Look, I get it, Dems. You think buying Greenland is dumb. You think trash-talking NATO is dumb. You think Hegseth firing generals is dumb. You think bombing Iran is dumb. Fine. Maybe you’re right. Maybe you’re wrong. I’ll buy you a beer and we can argue about it. But that’s not the point. Every administration in American history has done dumb things. Jefferson had an embargo that tanked his own economy. LBJ had Vietnam. Carter sold the Panama Canal for $1. W. had “Mission Accomplished.” Obama had…. where do I even begin? Dumb is bipartisan. Dumb is American. Dumb is fine. DC runs on dumb decisions. What NONE of them ever did, what is truly, mind-melting, pants-on-head, clown-car-fire, galaxy-brained, lead-paint-chip-eating, 50-IQ-Neanderthal-ripping-a-bong dumb, was pay NGOs by the busload to smuggle tens of millions of people, including actual convicted criminals, across a border we spent trillions pretending to defend, then hand them free four-star hotels, free cell phones, free ATM cards, and a court date in 2031 they were never going to show up for. That is not a policy. That is a SNL cold open someone forgot to write a punchline for. A five-year-old with a juice box could tell you that was Bozo-the-Clown-on-crack, Weekend-at-Bernie’s-running-DHS, “hold-my-beer-I’m-gonna-try-something” levels of stupid. My golden retriever could have run a tighter border. A Magic 8-Ball would have outperformed the entire Biden interagency. That’s the new threshold, Democrats. That’s the low-water mark. That’s the floor. That is the Mariana Trench of public policy and you personally rented the Titan submersible. Argue all you want about the Strait of Hormuz. Write your op-eds. Go on cable TV with Tom Nichols. Clutch your pearls about Greenland. But until Trump proposes something even half as mind-bendingly, bone-crushingly, civilization-forfeitingly brain-dead as what Biden and Kamala did with our borders, I genuinely do not care. Zero F’s given by me.

@Schwalm5132 How many fewer bridges will there be in Iran by sundown local time tomorrow?

Could be nothing...but then again. Tomorrows briefing by SecWar Hegseth and Chairman Caine was cancelled. Let's all jump to concussions!!! (My choice of words was not a mistake.)

So what I think is happening in the media space is that high profile narratives of intrigue etc, obviously pushed, are composed, LLM-style, of parts of earlier narratives lodged in the collective mind. The new scripts are probabilistic syntheses of their elements. Luigi combines JFK shooting (we have footage of the crime), Unabomber stuff (he's against the establishment and wrote a manifesto), Manson stuff (girls fall under his spell!), and so on. Charlie Kirk mystery built with the same structure. With different elements. Disappearance of that newscaster lady's mom in Arizona is Lindbergh baby case, only it's an elder. Weak production, though. Cancelled. Even the anti-war movement going on now is a pastiche of Vietnam Era tropes, with Trump as Nixon (impeach him) and the leaders of Iran as misunderstood freedom fighters à la Ho Chi Minh. This is your world now. Don't be mistaken. And don't think I'm saying everything is "fake." Or that we live in a big "S" Simulation. Real events can be molded through this process into what I'll call "Large Language Media." The tell is their strange halo of familiarity, of having been assembled from pre-existing units, as it is with AI-written prose. Got it?

A book lets you explain yourself once, clearly, in a form people can come back to.

“Fair request” = you don’t get to kill our terrorists That is really what they are demanding.

Fair point, but can we stop calling Canadians our brothers and Europeans our cousins? John A. Konrad III, was a second-generation German-American B-24 navigator who bombed his actual cousins. And now I’m supposed to feel guilty cutting NATO funding? That math doesn’t math.

I’m about to do a conference all-call to explain to members on both sides that it is illegal to sexually harass staff and interns. You all need to pull your shit together. Stop molesting the staff! Freaks.

Always. Worst feeling in the world is putting your weapon into operation and hearing a click (instead of a bang) when you wanted/needed something to die. You pulled the trigger for a reason...didn't you?

8lb Roast 👉 Three thicc boi steaks Always Be Beef Aging 👊

This is the supposed civil rights issue of our time. Men fighting to be able to use the women's bathroom. Men fighting to steal women's privacy and dignity. That's it folks. These ridiculous men think they are social justice warriors but they're just the worst kind of men forcing themselves into women's spaces and violating our boundaries, then declaring themselves the victims. PS good for Boise.

Popped over to St. Andrew Stratelates Orthodox Cathedral and meet with leaders of the congregation. As we pursue peace, these convos matter, especially as Orthodox Christians face persecution in Ukraine. Their message is clear: peace must come first. 🕊️

A book gives your expertise a shape people can understand and remember. Most experts stay scattered, which is why they stay ignored. Ouch.

Teen Wondering When Parents Will Grow Out Of Awkward Stage buff.ly/786lyGp

Canada is the weird nerdy kid everyone leaves alone because they assume he’s nice. Then he gets invited to one party and everyone realizes he’s actually a d***.

Will Congress use their slush fund of tax payer dollars to pay off Eric Swalwell’s accusers to keep them silent? Like they have been doing since the 70s?

They just invent war crimes, like they invented the Russia collusion hoax

Fascinating insight @ZiaErica @MarcelaMarjean @OwenGregorian @JoshuaLisec
