Must be nice to live in a world where republicans don’t exist and never win elections and don’t have any power. How’s the weather on your planet?

I really wonder whether anyone in the press who aided and abetted Trump over the last 10 years will ever have the decency to apologize for their mistakes. I know, it's wishful thinking but like, Murdoch and his flunkies at the WSJ should be high up on the list.
The WSJ editorial board states outright: “…there needs to be a bipartisan reckoning for Mr. Trump’s budding alliance with the Kremlin against Ukraine, Europe and American interests.” wsj.com/opinion/to-russia-wi…

Even Israeli media are calling it what it is. Western media still can’t bring themselves to do the same.
Israel’s mainstream news channel says outright “Jewish terrorism continues”

It really is fucking infuriating to have lived through four years of reporters questioning Biden's health and have them be completely silent on the obvious signs of Trump's physical and mental decline. Just could not care less about any of it.

Joe Biden also had a clarity of thought regarding Putin, Trump, & Ukraine. This, for example, is an excerpt from the June 27th, 2024 debate. "Go ahead, let Putin go in and control Ukraine, and then move on to Poland and other places. See what happens then." He stuttered, tho.
10 years ago today, the third and final Clinton v Trump debate, with the famous “puppet” exchange about Putin:

Israeli settler terrorists and their supporters think the best way to distract from their terrorism is to enter Palestinian towns, provoke a reaction, and then scream, “Look, the Palestinians are the terrorists!” No one is buying their shit anymore.

Here’s what @elonmusk and others keep missing: Russia can end this war by stopping its invasion. Ukraine can’t end it by surrendering without losing its freedom. Telling Ukrainians to stop defending themselves because fighting costs lives rewards the country killing them. If your “solution” demands courage from the invaded and nothing from the invader, that’s peak weakness. And you need to stop pretending to be some alpha
Elon Musk becomes deeply moved, and deadly serious, when Bret Baier asks him why he called Sen. Mark Kelly a "Traitor" for pushing to send more US aid and weapons to Ukraine. Watch every second of his response. "We should have empathy for the thousands of people dying everyday in the trenches. For no movement in the lines. For the past two years thousands of people have died every week for nothing." "I take great offense at those who put the appearance of goodness over the reality of it. Those who virtue signal and say we can't give into Russia, but have no solution to stopping thousands of kids dying every day." "I have contempt for such people and I want to make that clear. Because they're virtue signaling and their lack of a solution means that kids don't have a father. It means parents lost a son. For what? Nothing."

The Trump admin is moving forward on plans to impose financial penalties on Americans in default on their federal student loans and hire private debt collectors to go after them. The plans are unlikely to be announced until after the midterms. washingtonsun.com/economy/tr…

Another set of Left "activists" who completely threw away any progress on the issue they claimed to represent in favor of The One True Issue. At least they made that one thing better, though...right?

Absolutely despicable. Everything is a transaction with Trump. He does nothing unless it’s good for him. He is corrupt and cruel. They are fighting for their survival.

Ten years ago today. In just the last few days: Trump made a deal for the U.S. to buy Russian diesel, an economic lifeline for Putin; he and Elon Musk blamed each other for an order that slowed down Starlink satellite connectivity over Ukraine, hampering the country's defenses during a devastating Russian attack; and Trump waived sanctions on Russia that Congress, led by his late friend Lindsey Graham, had pushed for. Now, Putin has proposed a summit with Trump and Xi to decide Ukraine’s fate for them, bulldoze a century of international cooperation, and frame Russia as an equal to the U.S. and China. We’ll see if Putin’s puppet continues to dance on his strings.
