Conservatives will say that liberals have Trump Derangement Syndrome for posting about blatant corruption and then drive 40 minutes to their nearest big city galleria mall to pull up to the Cheesecake Factory for a selfie to protest a random Barack Obama joke they misunderstood.

The Cheesecake Factory stuff is a really good encapsulation of conservative discourse during the Obama era for folks not old enough to have experienced it. Endless whining and mind-loss over something they wouldn’t even notice if someone else said it. Eight years of that!

Trump tonight adds a new reason he must renovate the golf course "immediately," one that DOJ didn't mention in months of litigation:
"Narrow fairways ... leading to a constant barrage of people being hit with wayward shots." truthsocial.com/@realDonaldT…

I’m laughing so hard. The whole drama about “dropping a new ad” for Michigan or Netanyahu starting the Iran War … he just dusted off one of his old ads from his failed 2024 presidential run. See the date on the tweet. Apparently Israel was then responsible for expensive eggs.
This is the ad that’s going viral right now on TikTok. This #CeasefireAd can help us get delegates in the Democratic primary to fight for #CEASEFIRE_NOW. Please share and help us run this ad in the upcoming primary states at CenkForAmerica.com

Re: "that ad is about Israel, not Jews":
If there was an ad hammering on the idea that the reason you can't pay for your groceries is that we're spending too much on aid to Africa, I'm guessing few people left of center would have trouble seeing that as racist

This is all bull shit
The major question in Brazil…
At exactly 5pm, a code is supposed to be entered that closes and locks the voting machines. Once a machine is locked, it can’t accept any more votes. It’s irreversible.
The Supreme Court extension was relayed a few minutes after polls were supposed to be closed and machines locked.
So… which machines were kept open? In what districts were those machines? And why weren’t they locked at 5pm?

So many people falling into Cenk Uygur’s trap — giving his vile antisemitic ad infinitely more views than it would otherwise get by sharing it in order to condemn it.
You can speak out against antisemitism without doing the antisemites’ jobs for them.

Lula won by 4.4 million votes.
The number of votes cast after the polls reopened was under 36,000.
Anyone who tells you that this is why Lulu won or that it delegitimizes the outcome is pushing a completely fake narrative.

One of the best parts about Lula's victory in Brazil 🇧🇷 is watching in real time all those Polymarket/Kalshi bros eat shit and lose their money.
Grok refuted this lie
Flávio Bolsonaro: 56.78%
Lula da Silva: 43.22%
Without extending voting until 7 PM.
@grok, confirm this.

Not a good election day for autocrats. Huge vote for change in Serbia, and Lula has come back from a first round deficit to be poised to win the Brazil presidential runoff.
Up next: Israel elections on Tuesday.

A stunning defeat for a Trump-aligned right-wing leader in Europe.
Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić, whose government cultivated close ties with Donald Trump and his family, has conceded defeat to a student-led opposition movement in a historic parliamentary election.
Trump's son Donald Trump Jr. personally met with Vučić, while Jared Kushner pursued a major luxury real estate project with his government.
Now, after nearly two years of massive student-led protests against corruption and authoritarianism, Vučić's ruling party has been defeated at the ballot box.
The student-backed movement is projected to win a parliamentary majority, ending more than a decade of dominance by Vučić's party.
Experts think that team that wasted 2 outs with sacrifice bunts that resulted in 0 runs earlier should have done it again in 9th inning.
.@JakePeavy_22 and Brian Kenny offer their initial thoughts on the 9th inning decision-making in Game 2.

The people complaining about Obama’s Cheesecake Factory line sound like performative humorless scolds, maybe this is Woke 2.0.

Trump swaggered into Georgia right before the midterms, breathlessly announcing a huge new Audi factory, a massive win for the state he claimed. Here's the receipt: Audi had absolutely no such announcement, no plans to build a plant in Georgia, and no knowledge of this supposed commitment. This wasn't just campaign exaggeration; it was a bald-faced fabrication, invented out of thin air just days before an election, banking on voters not checking if a major international corporation actually agreed to a multi-billion dollar investment during a political rally. It perfectly illustrates how quickly reality gets benched for a headline grab, promising prosperity that only exists in a speech bubble, all while the people who supposedly value "truth" never question the actual facts. thehill.com/homenews/state-w…

I'm gonna take a stab: When you're afraid to mention your party's signature economic policy in campaign ads, that might be a sign that the policy is unpopular because it didn't work as promised.
Just such a fun chart here from @greg_ip. If only we could tease out some meaning. Ah, well, nevertheless. 🤣
