    We need to stop being in shock and awe at how stupid these people are and start understanding that they are our enemies. They work in direct opposition to the welfare of average Americans. They’re also stupid. But more importantly, they are our enemies, and we need to start framing it as such.

      We’ve been doing that for years, but people just chanted “genocide” at Kamala and let this happen.

        BLUEMAGA never stops whining. Go removed at Biden and Harris for not doing the thing Trump did before he even got in office. It was on the table for like 8 months and those monsters said “nah”.

            Don’t bother. They’re just trying to distract and redirect by telling us we should be mad at those not directly responsible instead of those directly responsible.

            Like those who said we should blame Democrats when Republicans overturned Roe v Wade.

            Generally speaking, ignore anyone that uses the term “BLUEMAGA”. It’s a term trending with idiots right now.

    Local radio fired their news department and brought in cheap new talent.

    Last night they mispromounced Potomac and i shook my head.

    But a few weeks ago when the news reader mispronounced Orwellian, a canary died somewhere.

    They do this intentionally, it’s part of Trump’s populist cult, White house messages under his last admin had intentional spelling and grammar errors and when asked staffers said they did it intentionally to match Trump’s ‘style’ breaking norms is a big part of populist cults of personally.

    One of the top people they’ve appointed to OPM, (yes that OPM sending scam resignation deals to civil servants), graduated high school in 2024.

    When they say Meritocracy they mean Aristocracy.

    Going for some Ivanka resemblance, perhaps?

    This journalist is going to have the nuclear codes in the tabloids before long.

        Thin white woman, long blonde hair, lots of eye makeup, full lips, etc. It’s not that they’re twins, it’s that they’re a similar type.

        And it doesn’t matter what we think. The president is the one that wants to fuck her, lol.

    Also, looking past that spelling mistake, what the hell is a War Room White House? Is that meant to refer to the situation room? The briefing room? Is it that she’s in two places at once, the White House and a virtual War Room of whatever media organisation she represents?

    Or is it, as I may be forced to suspect, a perpetual state of mind, a designation not in conflict of course with any of the above, but indicative of someone who not only cannot spell their job but is just there to, as the phrase goes, perpetually and obsequiously stir shit?

      IDK if this helps, but at least in IT a “war room” is usually a dedicated and specialized support team temporarily put in place when large changes or updates are rolled out.

      It would make sense for the incoming administration to set up a war room to handle questions, exceptions and comments about both the administration change, and the sweeping (probably illegal) XOs issued by the President.

      Edit: I just looked her up. She is not related to an internal “War Room” but is actually affiliated with Bannon’s stupid podcast.

      War Room is a podcast of Steve Bannon. So she’s the White House correspondent for that podcast.

        Yep Trump new press sectary said thsy would go beyond legacy media and allow influencer and podcast in on all briefing…

        I am sure it meant only the right wing Podcaster and influencers though. No left wingers will be allowed.

        So this lady and whoever Joe Rogen sends etc.

          These are the agents of strife incarnate. Sure, I too love to act as an agent of chaos and oddity and to challenge all that we know, but these are the people who dedicate their lives to causing problems on purpose. These are the people who revel in the confusion and pain of all around them. They argue not to find truth but to argue. They fight not to make a world they think is better but to find another fight.
