Rich people can get away with anything. Maybe we’re the fools for not connecting this to the Kardashians. Kim, Chloe, and… another one are trying to influence who’ll be Japan’s new prime minister because one of them wants to crack down on influencer tourism.

Musk just tweeted out a death threat against a Presidential candidate and still has fucking security clearance.

I mean, this really just belies all the lies post-9/11 from the conservatives about how they cared deeply about US security. (It was Security Theater then, it’s Security Theater now)

Just like any shitty corporation, security is almost always compromised by high-level officials that think the rules do not apply to them.

How the fuck is this country even still standing at this point with this chicanery and buffoonery at the reigns?

I presume that much of the absolutely most essential services have had to move underground, beyond reach of such things.

Remember that letter sent out by most of the top security people in the nation, that if Trump won a second time rather than Biden anyone else, that America would - not might, would - fall to Russia? Trump surely would not be so petty as to fire all those who signed it once in office, thereby leaving this country exposed without any intelligence capabilities (hehe, in more ways than one:-P)?

We came so close to it all being over, but nonetheless managed to dodge one bullet that almost ended this “experiment in democracy”, and now it’s 4 years later so time to reload this Russian Roulette round and play again… Except this time with that SCOTUS ruling that nobody seems to talk about anymore, and with Project 2025, the stakes are higher than ever before and this is for sure the last election that we’ll ever have to do ever again (as Trump himself literally said) - unless ofc Democrats win and then ofc we’ll simply repeat this roulette again in another 4 years time.

Upvoted, agreed, and all I really want to say is thanks for bringing more Brian Blessed into my life. Never enough of him.

Because it’s basically the same everywhere?

Basically because various parts of the government were pitted against each other, by design. Various organizations and levels of government have their own objectives, interests and resources and operate with varying amounts of independence and interdependence. It’s frankly messy and creates some inefficiency, but it’s sort of like biodiversity - a problem that impacts part of the government doesn’t impact all of it in the same way or at the same time, so it doesn’t completely collapse or grind to a halt.

Parody is hard when the truth is more absurd. Kim’s granddad had his favorite actors kidnapped and brought to N.Korea to make movies for him.
