So just saw on CNN where Trump is barring Harvard from enrolling international students? What the hell?? How is that even legal?

5/22/2025 2:55:23 PM

I honestly don't understand how most of the stuff they're doing is "legal".

5/22/2025 3:30:02 PM

What about white South African farmer kids, though?

5/22/2025 6:42:45 PM

^^^ legal? This administration is not worried about legality. They know that even if this goes to court it will be tied up there for years, and any judge will issue a stay to let the administration keep doing what they're doing until they decide.

The key takeaway is that the executive branch issued a visa, and all they have to do is sit on their hands and not do anything once a visa is revoked. Once that Visa is revoked they have carte blanche to remove international students from this country

How is this making us great?

We don't want the best and the brightest from around the world.

We want to double down on our homegrown idiots.

Also, I would like an investigation to see who all made money on Trump’s announcement this morning about the 25% tariff’s on Apple.

5/23/2025 8:33:23 AM

this is what happens when you mainline conservative media for 20+ years

this was always going to be the endgame of the “fuck you, I got mine” party

There’s so much whackadoodle going on right now it’s hard to focus on just one thing, which I’m sure is part of the strategery.

$5 says that in a week or two, his justification for the international students ban at Harvard will be to allow more Americans into Harvard. And half the population will pump their fists in excitement. Maybe not justification, but he’ll say it nonetheless.

5/23/2025 12:37:05 PM

there is no strategy

Tough to envision ever punishing all this unethical behavior since his supporters seem to be able to justify anything he does and apparently have no capacity for shame.

In the past, you could at least point out the shady stuff that someone did and expose it for public shame, and people would generally agree it was shady, wrong, abusive, etc.

It seems like that doesn't work anymore.

5/25/2025 9:59:43 PM

yeah, either they just deny that it happened to begin with, or they claim the Democrats are just as dishonest and crooked, or that they're even worse.

Speaking of which, what about Hillary's emails and Hunter's laptop, though?!

5/26/2025 12:44:26 PM

Hillary's emails: bad, but a drop in the bucket compared to what we have now
Hunter's laptop: never seen any evidence that there was anything there

5/26/2025 3:16:12 PM

There were some Hunter Biden dick pics.

5/26/2025 7:36:40 PM

^^the laptop had the receipts hunter was selling access to his dad to china and ukraine. also joe knew and was getting 10%


i hope trump is successful in getting the ukraine war to end before it escalates into a nuclear war, just saw germany is providing missiles that can go over 300 miles into russia, not good

5/27/2025 5:59:08 AM

They convinced a population that there’s an inside government. And that inside government is their excuse to do anything.

5/27/2025 10:33:19 AM

In this case democrats Co sponsored a bill to make this more normal and easier.

"On May 23, President Trump signed an executive order he’s calling a “restoration of gold standard science.” But don’t be fooled, this is not about scientific integrity. It’s about political control. The order gives Trump’s political appointees sweeping power over federal science. They can now: - Vet and approve all scientific research - “Correct” scientific findings that don’t align with the administration’s views - Control public communication of scientific data - Discipline federal scientists who speak out or deviate from the party line This is not a restoration, it’s a hostile takeover. Scientific independence has always been a cornerstone of public trust, policy, and progress. This order destroys that. Agency heads have just 30 days to comply. Silencing scientists doesn’t make the facts go away. It just makes our country less safe, less informed, and less free."

So of course Trump is going after the CBO
