I do think that we need some bulls in china shop in washington if the western civilization is to be ok in the next century. So Tulsi is a good pick. But gaetz is not qualified I think and probably couldn't pick up to speed fast enough.
WASHINGTON - President-elect Donald Trump has nominated Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz as the next U.S. Attorney General.
Trump announced his latest cabinet appointment Wednesday afternoon. Gaetz has been a long-time Trump supporter and is a member of the far-right Freedom Caucus in the House.
"Matt is a deeply gifted and tenacious attorney, trained at the William & Mary College of Law, who has distinguished himself in Congress through his focus on achieving desperately needed reform at the Department of Justice. Few issues in America are more important than ending the partisan Weaponization of our Justice System. Matt will end Weaponized Government, protect our Borders, dismantle Criminal Organizations and restore Americans’ badly-shattered Faith and Confidence in the Justice Department," Trump said in a statement.
Gaetz represents Florida's District 1.
Trump has announced a flurry of nominations in the week since his election. Earlier on Wednesday, he selected Sen. Marco Rubio to serve as his Secretary of State.
He should be just trolling I think ...
Why listen to a person that has been consistently wrong? The guy is the epitome of the Intellectual Yet Idiot.
Well Nixon's opening to China solved the cold war, Trump may try to engineer it's own opening to Russia - so you need someone that is dove-ish on Ukraine but hawkish on China. Rubio seems to fit the bill.
China needs to be managed. They want 2 things - the nine dash line and Taiwan. Both are negotiable I think, but there needs to be sticks and carrots.
I think that we should create a CDS - car derangement syndrome, similar to TDS. To me it seems that those are the types of people that just plain hate cars and are latching on everything to make the anti car case.
I haven't seen too. The anti trump memes are weak. I guess they are still in shock. Let's hope they improve. But I doubt that there are real trolls left on dem side.
When was the moment when you saw the first cracks in the dem machine (disclaimer I was prepared for Kamala win) - for me it was when Obamas tried to talk in woke to the black men from the working class. To me it was - if Obama has turned into (or confirmed that he always was) a woke white dude wearing blackface - yup , the leadership could be this disconnected from the reality.
if you stop the bullshit that is chain migration you can get there easily
Harris staffers seem to have been running a campaign that appeals to them, personally, with the celebrity concerts and so forth. A fun big party for the Dem staffer class. Of course what appeals to the Dem staffer class is not what appeals to the voting public, in many ways opposite to it.
The parallels between She Hulk Attorney at law and kamala's campaign are writing themselves. Up to Megan Thee Stallion's ass twerking convincing the public that showrunners have no idea what they are doing. And the end results.
per soldier I guess
Also - how many people even drink tap water anymore? (I am one of them, but my country chlorinates, not fluorinates the water). Almost everywhere around me is either bottled or filtered trough some britta like crap.

Israeli soccer fans were attacked in a “serious incident of violence in Amsterdam” overnight into Friday, authorities said, with the Israeli government saying it was sending planes to evacuate affected citizens.
Hundreds of fans of Israel’s Maccabi Tel Aviv soccer team “were ambushed and attacked in Amsterdam” on Thursday night as they left the stadium following a Europa League game against Dutch side Ajax, the Israeli embassy to the United States said on social media platform X.
Social media video shared by the embassy showed what it said was violence against Maccabi fans. CNN has not yet been able to verify those videos.
Dutch Prime Minister Dick Schoof said he was in touch with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu regarding the “completely unacceptable anti-Semitic attacks on Israelis.”
“I am in close contact with all those involved. Just now in a call with (the Israeli Prime Minister) Netanyahu emphasized that the perpetrators will be tracked down and prosecuted. It is now quiet in the capital,” Schoof said in a statement on X.
So there's that. The EU definitely has a problem. To which it is oblivious.
One of the jokes I never saw this election (and 2020, 2016) is someone using the "tomorrow belongs to me" clip from Cabaret as a representation of a Trump rally. And with so much Nazi name calling it really looks like a strange omission - it is a catchy song, it is just enough tongue in cheek to pass a just joking bro or to be posted ironically and it has all the needed elements to go viral.
The idea that abortion is some killer issue for Dems is overblown.
I think that the whole - it is a states issue finally penetrated into the thinner side of the thicker skulls. As in - I can fight in my state. Which makes local politics higher stake, but national lower.
You're talking as though Trump won in a landslide.
Losing by 2.3% against a convicted felon, rapist, insurrectionist, fraudster, racist and a nazi is a landslide.
Can anyone translate this passage in english please:
So our base, and I include myself in sharing this blame, feared speaking out loud what we felt about the hundreds of thousands of migrants who crossed our borders in the last four years. I have Latino friends, waiting for their green cards, who admitted with some hesitancy that they were voting for Trump. They did so not despite his immigration views, but because of them. Knowing he would be called a racist for doing so, Trump said that it’s time to enforce the law and stop illegal migrants from “jumping the line,” as one of my Latino friends said to me approvingly – approving of Trump, not the migrants.
did he just admitted to/accused latino voter fraud?
Damn. Need to up my misogyny. Even though they are pros I can't let it slide.
Umm... You can't get even tipsy on bottle of wine. Source - I am from Eastern Europe.
She probably should have downed a pint or two of bourbon to get wasted.
We live in timeline in which crazy things do happen. And I don't know - this Trump feels different. Somewhat more determined and responsible. I don't think it is out of question. Especially if he stumps for the 2026 midterms.
Could be wrong though.
So Trump has beaten three women so far - Hilary, Kamala, and Ivana.
Anyway - I am high on other peoples meltdowns and having lots of fun, but try not to be obnoxious to the IRL people I know. Twitter is fun. Probably even better than 2016.
What is the situation in your bubble? Also what are the best memes and zingers you have encountered?
He will retire after 2026 midterms to give Vance the max opportunity for win and still leave him with 2 possible future terms if the economy is good and the world is ok.
Will the Democratic party take a hard look in the mirror?
They will double down.
But no, when reality gets a vote in the past 8 years it's always the left who was deluded.
2022 midterms beg to disagree.
I would actually ignore the ID issue. You want fair elections. Just impose requirement on the states about the quality and auditability of the elections. How they achieve it is their own problem.
They are still funny. The Onion will never have the balls to publish
