If only someone time-traveled to the 1990s and turned Trump (and also Jeffrey Epstein since he's inadvertently responsible for this administration) into the FBI.

Funniest comment of the day!

[–] dellish@lemmy.world 23 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Not to diminish from her wittisism, is this really "BREAKING" news? Or is that term just used for everything now?

[–] yermaw@sh.itjust.works 21 points 1 day ago (1 children)

BREAKING NEWS : Lemmy user dellish just ADMITTED to not knowing the purpose of the usage BREAKING in reporting. More on this as it develops.

[–] lividweasel@lemmy.world 17 points 23 hours ago (2 children)

BREAKING NEWS: Lemmy user yermaw slams and blasts dellish. You’ll never guess what they said!

[–] Railing5132@lemmy.world 5 points 16 hours ago

Then THIS happened!

BREATHING NEWTS: Amphibians draw breath!

[–] ickplant@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago

It’s just used for everything. Sometimes tongue-in-cheek, sometimes not. I just ignore it nowadays.

[–] grimpy@lemmy.myserv.one 2 points 22 hours ago

mebbe ‘breaking up’ (haha) news??

[–] bisby@lemmy.world 44 points 1 day ago (3 children)

He watched bad bunny instead of kid rock?

[–] blattrules@lemmy.world 33 points 1 day ago (1 children)

He probably couldn’t figure out how to watch the other one.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 9 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Was it on some shitty streaming platform? (Like Crackl or whatever?)

[–] blattrules@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

I think it was on multiple streaming platforms, each one more shitty than the last.

[–] boonhet@sopuli.xyz 10 points 1 day ago

Turns out even the magas don't actually like Kid Rock, they only like that he wants to fuck kids like they do

[–] ramble81@lemmy.zip 7 points 23 hours ago

There were pictures from his party at MaL that showed the Bad Bunny halftime show in the background!

[–] frustrated_phagocytosis@fedia.io 23 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Right? There are plenty of natives in the south whose accents and dialects are indecipherable to me. Like Boomhauer on steroids in parts of Mississippi.

[–] slothrop@lemmy.ca 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

At least with Boomhauer you can use subs.

Listening to Donny mumble and stumble through his words as well as watching him limp and stumble around I keep saying to myself any day now any minute now please Grim Reaper hurry up I will pay for your Uber to the White House please.

Wait... She can understand what he says half of the time?!?

[–] Jhex@lemmy.world 16 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

it must be some sort of soft super power... or curse

[–] Pratai@piefed.ca 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Tweeting witty snark is apparently the new standard for what we consider a national treasure now.

Our new normal keeps sinking lower and lower.

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 7 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

When noone on the playground stands up to the bully, that one brave soul gets extra spotlight.

Especially when people like Hortman are executed for being on the 'other side'

[–] Pratai@piefed.ca 4 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

Tweeting a snarky comeback on social media isn’t standing up to a bully. It’s just pointlessly publicly shaming someone that doesn’t possess shame.

Alex Pretti and Renee Good stood up to bullies. And what happened to them is how trump responds to people standing up to him.

So, if you want a true definition of what standing up to bullies entails, check ICE’s body count. Because words don’t mean shit anymore.

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 1 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

Just gonna plop those goalposts down wherever you want. make up some definitions and tell me how wrong I am. you do you man.

[–] Pratai@piefed.ca 4 points 22 hours ago* (last edited 22 hours ago) (1 children)

If you want to think that a strongly worded social media post is standing up to someone. I’m not going to stop you, but not a single goalpost was moved during this discussion despite how witty it made you feel to say it.

It’s okay to let other people believe differently. Trust me.

[–] lightsblinken@lemmy.world 0 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

there are lots of different shitty events happening, with different ideas/ways of "standing up"... not sure we should be gatekeeping which ones are 'good enough' nor is there value in comparing. ending with "trust me" is a pretty insincere way to finish your observation and dilutes your authenticity.

[–] mfed1122@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 18 hours ago* (last edited 18 hours ago)

I think the problem that people sense with the witticisms of politicians like AOC is that it seems a little bit like the jester in the king's court who's there to poke fun at the king, so that way the peasants can get their kicks at the king's expense and therefore don't feel like they need to actually overthrow the king.

[–] DylanMc6@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 23 hours ago

In other news: representative says something witty in response to someone saying negative stuff about halftime show. More on that at 11.

[–] SabinStargem@lemmy.today 7 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

I hope she becomes my president, becoming the Franklin, Lincoln, Theodore, and Saint Olga of our time. There are a lot of bastards who deserves the bird and the flames.

Puppet History Theater: Saint Olga of Kiev

[–] FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Would love to see her in the White House one day, assuming she's got more to offer than her speeches.

[–] taiyang@lemmy.world 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

She's fairly active as far as house members in the minority. They mostly sit on committees and do boring shit (a reason governors, etc, typically look better for pres) but an interview with her suggested that even working within her own party is a challenge at times since the Dems are so ineffective as a whole.

Remember they chose an old cancer (?) patient over her for an important position since they do seniority rules. It's apparently quite awful.

[–] DylanMc6@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 23 hours ago

I think the secret to getting into office is appealing to the people on issues that both progressives and conservatives would agree on. I mean if it worked for Zohran in New York, why NOT AOC?

If scathing tweets were considered political action, she’d be the most effective politician ever.

[–] Quetzalcutlass@lemmy.world 17 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Well, Tim Walz calling MAGA "weird" was apparently one of the most effective tactics used by a Democrat in recent years, so...

(And of course the party told him to stop, snatching defeat from the jaws of victory yet again)

[–] monkeyjoe@lemmy.world 2 points 14 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago)

They stopped him to stop because they don't want to win an election. Effective tactics to win elections is so 2008.

[–] Biffsbraincell@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 day ago

Yeah there's enough political news happening these days that I wish we would keep the postings to actual news, instead of you'll never guess what he said about her or she said about him, OMG he is so burned this time!

[–] GrammarPolice@lemmy.world 1 points 22 hours ago

Hahaha great stuff! This will surely put food on the table of many starving Americans and get the fascists of the streets

Greta work👏

[–] thatradomguy@lemmy.world -3 points 18 hours ago

Didn't she vote for support to Israel not that long ago? Why do people pretend things didn't happen?
