He's rotting in hell.


Apparently Zelensky is saying he'll resign for the sake of peace. This is after he tried to claim that all the foreign aid to fight his war was supposed to be no strings attached. Doesn't think he owes the US anything.

He's a Jew. He's going to flee to Israel and steal some Palestinian's house the second shit hits the fan over there. It was always a matter of when.
They all bend the knee in the end.
 
I really don't like these public management cuck-outs.

President Trump publicly ordered Elon to go harder, I'm not exactly clear on why Hegseth and Patel in particular are engaging in what appears to be an administrative turf war as opposed to being grateful for another easy opportunity to cut the insubordinate.
It was signed by Darin Selneck so maybe he's being a tard and acting without petes guidance.
This could potentially be what's going on here. Looking at Selnick online and I can't find anywhere that mentions Hegseth personally put him in the position, nor if he even has the authority to make such a claim being a subordinate to Hegseth himself.

They could also be setting up a quantum failure situation, where they were both told to and not to reply to an email by their bosses. Then, they can pick and choose who to fire for what.

"You didn't answer that email? Insubordination, fired."

I recently lost a friend over politics. And the answer to your question is that he wasn’t always a lunatic. He used to be a regular dude who was always right leaning. He even voted for trump the first go round. Then Covid hit and he went insane. There literally is no position too far left for him now. I have no idea how that happened. But I didn’t cut him off because A: we had been friends for about 15 years at that point and B: I had hope that if we just didn’t talk politics he would eventually come back to reality. But after the inauguration he blocked me and another buddy’s numbers and that was that.
I had a leftist “friend” in high school who always gave me shit over my politics and religion, yet I never gave him shit for his opinions. This is how leftists are. They are so into their cult that anyone outside of the cult is an enemy. So honestly, fuck all of em.
That's the point. The likes of him did exactly the "compassionate christian" shit that these people talk about and all it got them was being walked over and destroyed.
I don’t consider anyone who allows societal ills to fester so they can be “kind” Christian’s. That’s just weakness. Genuinely fuck anyone who refuses to do anything about a problem so they can brag to everyone how “godly” they are.

The AFD just got washed in the recent elections and pretty much everyone agrees it's because Trump couldn't wait until after European elections for his Ukraine plan.

The AFD was more pro American then the other parties so this just confirms what I have been saying that Trump's needlessly hostile boomer blustering is hurting America.
This is an AMERICAN thread, go home euro

No, the bosses who belayed that order will get fired. Flushing out the career middle managers who think they have more authority than the President is more important than finding and firing every emailer of dubious utility.

Schrodinger's Feds. You don't know whether or not they're fired until Trump looks at them.
 
Now is not the time for screaming Feddit.

That comes later.

B-b-but Elon I called you a Nazi chud and refunded my Cybertruck!!

And you think this gives you power over me?



So given the shady dealings Biden and Hunter have had with Ukraine in the past that lead them to be oh so generous with taxpayer money when the war started could we find them in cahoots for fraud and demand the money back?

That money is long gone, and the Ukrainian economy will be fucked for a long time from the war, assuming they can avoid getting gobbled up by Russia. Trump can still demand it, but it'd be the equivalent of asking a homeless guy to pay you back for money you gave him to buy a bottle of wine.

Which is more heretical? Mormonism or Islam? I can't tell.
Both are false religion.

On topic, I had kind of an internal monologue recently about the left in America post-2024. A lot of them really, genuinely believe the past five years were a good thing. You could tell them how there are Hurricane Helene victims still living in tents and freezing to death right now, but they will laugh at you because it's not "real" to them because the man on the TV didn't tell them about it. And they weren't told about it deliberately, too - because that wouldn't be politically convenient and would hurt Biden/Harris/the DNC. Can't care about your own while you shove money into a black hole like Ukraine.

I also thought that if someone wants to double down like this after the horror show of the past five years, then that person is beyond help. Nothing going on in their heads - just robots and drones sitting in front of the TV. My internal monologue turned into an angry rant in my head calling them ants and lemmings, and I realize as I'm typing this that I cannot let this rile me up and have it turn into some animalistic rage as well. It can be hard to keep a cool head when you see this from them every day of your life and realize NPCs really aren't "individuals" when you stop and think about it. - When you are well and truly outside of mainstream political discourse in America, it's really kind of bizarre to watch these people who are deeply ignorant and don't realize how ignorant and cookie cutters of each other they are. And if you do say something, prepare for them to say the most vile things to you.
 
Mitt Romney is a sack of shit and you're silly if you think he was a good candidate in any way, shape, or form. We'd be better off with Jeb.
I don’t follow news but I think he’s not rerunning in Utah because they prefer Trump over him. He’s another politician who’s career has ended at the hands of Trump.
