This a-hole cannot spell and definitely has no idea he is yelling when he types his stupid comments.

Lie down with dogs, get fleas.

I know it is bad. I know it. I understand it is bad. I cannot seem to drum up a single ounce of sympathy for these quisling fuckers who helped get us where we are today.

Maybe tomorrow I will suck it up, but right now, try the flea shampoo, guys

What is it with TFG and his obsession with German fruitcake?

Having spent three years in Germany, I have to admit "Stollen" is NOT the best German confectionary, but everyone has their own taste. My wife used to like the "Dampfnudel," but I never liked those.

Is "stollen" a) the way he thinks the word is spelled; b) the way he thinks it's funny to spell it ("they think I don't know how to spell, so I spell things wrong on purpose"); c) a part of his brain that still remembers joy trying to bring back memories of christmas sweets?

At first it was bonehead's spelling acumen, now it's trolling the libs. He's nothing if not adaptable./s

Media outlets have been "both sidesing" things for so long, they can't seem to discern their own interests anymore. We've seen numerous media powerhouses roll over for the felon without so much as a whimper of subservience. Millions of dollars have been paid to the felon in a fool's hope that somehow they'll be spared when the axe falls.

But by all means, keep subscribing and sending money to the Washington Post and the LA Times as they knuckle under to felon in hopes he'll pat them on the head.

Want to bet that the White House has a subscription to Politico Pro and a thousand similar services like that.

Why doesn't Elon turn his attention to that. Heck, it would probably even be legal for him to do so.

Wasn't there once a supposedly independent news source that said "Democracy dies in the darkness?"

What ever happened to them.

Trump lies. Millions believe it.

Don’t know why people do this. One of the biggest problems we have as a society.

I associate "stollen" strictly with Christmas.

And well you should. In my three years in Germany, I only ever saw it at Weihnachten. The same with Lebkuchen.

Also, I only ever saw Weizenbier in the summers. Winters it was Pils, Export, or Alt (for me!).

Following links from the BlueSky thread I found a plausible explanation offered for why Politico, of all places, is being attacked as anti-MAGA (a major surprise to everyone who works for or has ever glanced at Politico). Politico is owned by a Nazi-adjacent German (son of someone who worked for Goebbels) who runs Bild and Die Welt, right-wing publications. Die Welt carried Elon Musk's op-ed backing the AfD party-- but had the temerity to include a response op-ed titled Why Musk is Wrong.

Wow. That would entail some sophisticated analysis for MAGA.

Confused a little - is Political Pro connected to the news organization Politico in any way, or is it a completely separate entity selling software subscriptions? I'm sorry I am having a hard time following this.

Politico Pro is a news source for policy professionals - which of course includes many government officials. https://www.politicopro.com/

So. Lone smuk found a $500,000 savings at the USDA. To reach his goal to cut 2 trillion bucks from the budget, he only needs to find four million more instances like that.

Math is easy.

Everything remains terrible of course, but it did make me chuckle to see a wild STOLLEN roaming free.

Sometimes it's the little things folks.
