"I find that I’ve lost my sense of which contemporary worldview is most in need of criticism or opposition, where the good guys and bad guys are."

These are utterly damning admissions in so many ways. And what they say is that you should have STFU long, long ago.

You only hire a guy with a face and voice for telegraph messages, if your goal is for people to stop watching.

Ross D is an ugly MF. Sorry about your face Ross.

He’s old enough that his face is his fault.

I’m guessing he was as vague as possible about the details of this oppression by the forces of “wokeness.”

He is an asshat!

Ross is in his mind is the tip of the spear. Taking 100% of his orders from Steve Miller, but trying to seem like the good faith intellectual conservative. He is a tiny fake fig leaf trying to cover a monster cock

“Doubtthat” is one of many reasons I no longer subscribe to the NYT, plus I hate bedbugs. I’d already given up on 60 minutes but now I’m giving up even more.

He can, however, see the back of his own teeth from that vantage point.

"Bari Weiss is trying to remake into something that appeals to people for whom Inside Edition is a bit complex"

I can hardly wait to see what Ms Weiss will do to CNN after the Fulvous Fuckwad gets involved and forces the sale of Warner Bros Discovery to the Ellisons (bless their hearts). She's been so effective at remaking CBS News into something that we all want to watch: Tony who anchoring the evening news, bringing respected journalists like Ross Douchebag to 60 Minutes after firing woke jerks like Pelly and Vega, and AC's departure (it's about time, I sez), and paring down the hosts on CBS Mornings to a corporate stooge who got her job thanks to Oprah: Gayle King and a cheap knockoff of ABC's Michael Strahan.

"likes lecturing people about the left’s alleged moral failures"

Douchebag and other self-identified conservatives, who are totes clueless as to what conservatism really entails, love themselves some unrecognized hypocrisy. Instead he/they is/are doing the right thing in avoiding bothsideserism; it's a given that Leftists are all immoral dipshits by definition with an appetite to see the country torn down a notch or two while the Right's apparent immorality is justified in the name of building a better America... you know, break a few eggs to make an omelet -- if it comes up at all.

"Trump [sic] 2.0 has no great popularity, no legislative capacity, no policy legacy that a Democratic successor can’t easily roll back.

[...]

And no, a Democratic successor can’t easily roll anything back, because a) Congress won’t be nearly as acquiescing even if Democrats control it at the same time, and b) the Supreme Court has made it obvious it will strike down anything a Democratic president wants to do. Nothing is happening absent SCOTUS reform"

* An historic low popularity rating hasn't stopped the eejit shitting behind the Resolute Desk from doing whatever he wants. The ratings are all fake news anyway; he's got the highest ratings of any POTUS in history, was swept into office with a yuge mandate, and has shown his only concerns are the security of the country, making life easier for Americans through sound economic policies, and getting crime under control.

* Mad King Donnie has all the legislative capacity he needs... so long as the RINOs hold the majority in both Houses of Congress. They rubber stamp anything he puts in front of them and refuse to hold him accountable for his ignoring the Constitution and the laws of the land. (Fortunately it looks like his illegal and illiberal actions will end at noon on 3 Jan 2027, at which time he no longer owns Congress.)

* Rolling back at least some of his policies won't be as hard as it might seem. Basically most of them have come from Imperial Edicts which have no legal weight. I might be mistaken but I believe an Executive Order declaring an edict null and void if the RINOs haven't legislated them into laws is sufficient.

* As I've said before, among the first things a Dem controlled House in the 120th Congress should do is file numerous Articles of Impeachment with Justices Thomas and Alito at the head of the list. This is a first step to SCOTUS reform and could serve as a wakeup call to Barrett and Kavanaugh.

Self-proclaimed "America's Constitution Coach" Rick Green says that Anthony Fauci is "no different than the Nazis in what they did": "I don't care how weak or broken he is, I want to see him go to prison."

Christian nationalist political activist/worship leader Sean Feucht claims that God had him run for Congress (and lose) in 2020 to prepare him to lead anti-lockdown rallies across the nation during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Has anyone told Mr. Green that it's a undecided thing on his side of the politics whether or not the Nazis were A Bad Thing? He should pivot to using Stalin instead and keep up with the times.

Fuck them all, and especially Sean.

In his columns peroration he says: "Once I would have imagined a valedictory essay offering some stirring brief for religious conservatism, some last foray into the territory where I was most likely to be in disagreement with my readers. But I don’t think that quite fits the moment."

Instead, he writes a whole column that reflects his worldview of "religious conservatism."

As for the record Baconz would rather have a neckbeard. But as much as I want to save the time and pain of shaving (which sucks) a beard around the Addams Apple area needs shaved.

It gets itchy. Am I right guy over 25?

Neck beards are lame. But that is just my shaving style.

Edit: shaving your neck hair can be accidentally construed as either "a close shave" or a "possible suicide attempt"

Poor Italians. They dont know where to stop shaving. What is the fine line between facial hair and "pelt"

“The Biden era just gave us a more left-wing version of meritocratic hubris, replacing experts with interest groups.”

To claim Trump has the experts and Biden just catered to interest groups is just so batshit dumb that I don’t understand how he could even write that sentence.

Look, I can deal with someone having a different political view, religious view, but I can’t deal with stupid.

Be fair. Conservatism is not an ideology that’s famous for attracting thoughtful honest decent sane people. It’s cruel to expect any better from them.

Getting mad at Ross Douche-Hat for being a witless MAGA parrot is like getting mad at Curly for wrecking the house while trying to fix the doorbell.

Trux Mint In Box's avatar

I’m not mad at Ross, I’m mad at the media for giving this moron a platform.

That's Ross for you. His mind is a damaged mess.

It pains me to think men like this will be able to say "Yeah, brah, I used to write for the Times. It were swell."
