Admittedly I’ve never watched their content and was already calling them mierdas touch simply because I cannot stand the absurdly clickbait cope titles they choose.

A lot of the independent left-wing reporters out there have been doing this for a while as well. Bryan Tyler Cohen, David Pakman, all of the Meidas Touch, and Jesse Dollemore are also absurdly guilty of this. It actually takes away from their content because I often agree with their content, but their absurd hyperbolic clickbait just smacks of desperation and is a huge turn-off.

I stopped watching them right after the election, because a lot of people were in their channels discussing the impact of Trump winning the election and every single one of them were putting out videos begging subscribers not to leave because their subscriber numbers were dropping. Yeah. Trump just returned to power and you’re worried about your subscriber numbers. Way to show how out of touch the fucking lot of you are. All of you have resources, money, and a subscriber base that regular people could only dream of and I’m supposed to be worried about your subscriber numbers? Fuck all the way off, the lot of you.

Before you put any faith in our judicial system to do the right thing, remember that Trump can and will immediately appeal any ruling.

• To the Supreme Court.
• Who already ruled Trump is all but immune from prosecution.
• Who also already ruled that official actions taken by Trump cannot be questioned, much less investigated.
• Who also already ruled that official acts are what Trump says they are, unless they say otherwise.
• Who also have already ruled that punishments couldn’t be applied anyway because they would interfere with the execution of his official duties.
• Who also have already signaled that they are willing to sign onto the Unitary Executive Theory, essentially giving Trump whatever immunity that the original order didn’t grant.

I’ll let you take all the time you need figuring out how well that’s gonna turn out. Go ahead. I’ll wait.

We need to return to making politicians be afraid to show their dumb faces after screwing over their constituents

They already are afraid to show their dumb faces to their constituents. The problem is that the constituents don’t have the power to actually do anything. The only thing that constituents have left is violence. And yes, that’s exactly what the GOP is doing. But at that point, it almost becomes a pyrrhic victory. Our elections will be decided not by the votes but by whichever side has the most thugs willing to commit the most violence.

I mean, he’s not wrong if you count “away from Schumer” as a ‘real direction’.

Here’s what I can tell you.

School food service management companies are going to pull out of a lot of school districts, if not out of public school service entirely. Districts were working on shoestring budgets with all-but-nonexistent profit margins before Trump returned to office and declared war on the poor. The cuts to grants that Trump has made already are going to put these districts underwater by year’s end. And that’s a generous estimate.

Now, say what you will about the major food service companies out there (Chartwells, Sodexo, Aramark, Wixons, etc.). And god knows there are problems with all of them. I say this having worked for one of them. But what I will also say is that even the worst of these companies is still better than many districts that will try to self-operate. And while some school districts can and do self-op successfully, far more have absolutely no idea what they’re doing. “Management” is typically whoever drew the short straw, or whoever is low man on the totem pole. They often have no idea what they’re doing and know nothing about 90% of the rules, regulations, and practices of food service. Further, they couldn’t care less because they have their actual jobs to do and food service barely even makes the priority list at all, let alone being low priority. “Menu planning” becomes little more than “There’s a hamburger, french fries, and some milk. What more do you want?”. The districts don’t have the leverage to buy at bulk rates like a school food service company does, so the food often costs more.

So the waste, fraud, and abuse is going to increase exponentially. Much of it is going to be due to sheer incompetence and a lack of buying power. Some will see it as a way to divert money into programs that they actually do care about – a practice that was already common before Trump – or in some cases, directly into their pockets. Others are going to intentionally sabotage the program because they want school lunch service out of their schools entirely, hoping to follow the political winds and have the federal mandates requiring participation in the NSLP repealed.

Take a look at the crap your kids are getting served today. That’s the healthiest they’re gonna eat at school for a long, long time.

Someone needs to be talking to Schumer’s PR team about concepts like “optics”, “timing”, and “reading the room” that are apparently foreign concepts to them. You don’t all-but abandon the Democrat party by voting for the budget he’s going to use to gut American social safety nets, essentially becoming a cuck for Trump, and saying there’s nothing the Senate can do to stop him and then go out and launch a fucking book tour days later.

I hope his book tour stops are met with Democrat voters telling him what a fucking loser he is.

This has been known for a long time. Nobody is buying the 138028032th “tell-all” book about Trump written by some no-name politician (I know Schumer has name value, but I’m speaking in general terms here) enough to catapult them to the best sellers’ list.

So I figure give it a week and Trump will pull like $500 million in funding.

In unrelated news, Harvard will fire these guys in about 2 weeks.

So, everybody around here who keeps saying “There are laws preventing this!” and “Even Trump won’t directly defy court orders like that!”…

Now what?

• Courts have repeatedly said that the mass federal firings must stop. These orders have all been ignored and the firings are intensifying. Nothing has been done.
• Courts have repeatedly said that various fired federal workers must be reinstated. These orders have also been ignored. As far as I know, not a single one of them has been re-hired. Nothing has been done.
• Courts have ruled that these migrants cannot be deported. Trump deported them anyway. Trump has graduated from simply ignoring court orders to openly defying them. Nothing has been done.
• Trump is now openly calling for the impeachment of judges that rule against him.

This is the justice system that you think is going to keep Trump in check and hold him accountable? They’re much more likely to rubber-stamp his agenda and give him more power. And no, that’s not hyperbole or sarcasm. It’s what the courts have been doing, and it’s what John Roberts recently signaled he’d sign on for.

If you believe for half a second that our justice system is going to hold the line against Trump, I’ve got some sweet, sweet Martian beachfront property you might be interested in. Musk recently said he’s sending a ship there soon, so get in on the ground floor now!

I never fucking want to hear “Trump will never be able to do that, because that’s illegal!” from you people again. If there is nobody willing or able to enforce the law, the “law” becomes nothing more than a suggestion that can and will be ignored when inconvenient. And right now, nobody seems either willing or able to hold Trump to account for anything.
