politics @lemmy.world•Erika Kirk says Turning Point's support of JD Vance in 2028 is 'in the works'
14·9 months agoThis was an AI clip Colbert made to make fun of JD Vance when JD Vance was trying to say that putting Hakeem Jeffries in an AI video with a sombrero wasn’t racist. The sombrero here is a callback to that original video.

21·9 months agoI just assumed it was Pete Hegseth after a bender going “Swastikas for all!!!” And some poor intern figuring out how to make his boss not fire him.

politics @lemmy.world•‘I lose my liberty in that moment’: Charlotte shuts down as citizens and noncitizens alike face ICE arrests
30·9 months agoFrom an ethical perspective this is obviously reprehensible. As a Chicago resident I could rant for hours about how destructive these are to peace and prosperity.
Looking at this from a pure strategy standpoint. I don’t understand the strategy of infuriating a swing state here.
These ICE raids are incredibly unpopular to put it mildly for every city that has them. Like no one loves feeling like you’re getting abducted by people in unmarked cars without due process. It’s one thing to put these in blue states where it’s “out of sight out of mind” for callous MAGA fucks. It’s another to do it in the home turf where this dominates news cycles.
Even when they’re evil they’re stupid about it.

politics @lemmy.world•Trump signs bill to release Epstein files
98·9 months agoWhy do I feel like something is ultimately wrong here?
I know one theory is that Mike Johnson was hoping that the bill would get tied up and die in the Senate and that backfired spectacularly, but this still just feels off.
Just oink like a normal person

6·10 months agoSome of it may just be due to circumstances too. They were working nights and weekends tracking in an excel spreadsheet that was accidentally available to other agents.
So yeah like this wasn’t done slowly and methodically.

I say it more for others reading than the OP.
OP is for sure acting in bad faith. But anyone reading gets another tool to identify filth.
The caricature above the clouds is a “Happy Merchant” which is a very common antisemitic Jewish caricature.

politics @lemmy.world•Kamala Harris’s Memoir Shows Exactly Why Her Campaign Flopped
461·10 months agoArticle was a great read. This part really resonated with me.
It may seem petty to use this incident, but it does illustrate Harris’s expectation that the world should conform to her needs. Towels on the far side of the room? Someone else must fetch them. A slot as the Democrat presidential candidate that party leaders conveniently made sure would be uncontested by anyone else, a massively well-funded campaign that raked in over a billion dollars and the support of celebrities like Oprah and Beyoncé, a popular vice presidential candidate, a huge boost in the polls as soon as she stepped into the campaign… and, yet, somehow, her loss is still anyone’s fault but her own. Why are my towels on the other side of the room? Who will fetch them for me?
It really did feel that way in hindsight. That we all were just supposed to conform to her and not the other way around.
I remember Hacks on Tap talking about how their contacts were frustrated that Harris wasn’t out doing more national television interviews and that she wasn’t really putting herself out there. This feels like another example of the towel in the bathroom.
