Just bruh. He might not even be able to get confirmed in the U.S. Senate.
Okay one more bit to add about the UAP hearing today, Michael Shellenberger just posted the full report that he submitted to congress regarding Immaculate Constellation, the supposed crash-retrieval program.

Tulsi Gabbard for the DNI. A (quasi?) Russian asset, pro Syrian al-Assad.
And Reuters is reporting Trump team is drafting a list for a purge at the pentagon.

Shillenberger taking a much needed break from figurative and literal windmill tilting I see.
So, I haven’t really heard of him outside the context of this hearing. What do you mean by windmill tilting?
Shellenberger is a conservative pundit, the last time I remember seeing a tweet from him it was a repost of him he was NIMBY-ing a proposed wind farm power plant in California or something.
Before that I remember him rattling off conservative talking points during that recall election in California.

Say, now that our old friend’s been appointed the next Hitman game villain, I wonder if her villain arc could have been avoided if Biden picked Tulsi as his running mate in 2020.
Believe it or not, she did like the old bastard once.
She even endorsed him when she finally fucked off.
I think the reason she changed is because she realised she was getting nowhere with the Democrats, so she rage quitted and spent the next few years as a Fox News talking head until she went for greener-oranger pastures for Trump this year. If another decrepit old man picked her up in 2020, maybe she wouldn’t have gone insane.
I don’t think Harris brought any big boost for Biden in 2020 but I’m pretty sure Tulsi had her own share of controversies, what with Hillary calling her a Russian puppet and being pretty conservative. I think if Gabbard somehow fucked Biden’s campaign and got Trump 4 more years, she’ll end up going Lieberman like she is now.
If Biden still won, Gabbard is basically a conservative and as recent events showed, a two-faced bitch, so either she falls out with Biden, resigns and goes Lieberman or she influences Biden for the worse in regards to Ukraine and Israel and everything.
Or maybe she’s a good VP and spends 2021 to 2023 playing Hitman in the Number One Observatory Circle, like I assume Harris did, before swooping in to save(?) us in 2024.
I heard Trump supporters say they love her and would have voted for her if she ran this year, but honestly, if Harris or Buttigieg never joined Biden’s administration and began sucking up to Trump’s mushroom in 2028, Trump supporters will be fawning over them instead. The Democratic nominee could be Biden, Harris, Gabbard, Bernie, Jesus or Ivanka, no matter what, Trump and his supporters will malign them.
But then again, I think Gabbard has a certain appeal? I don’t know how much sway she had, but maybe she really does attract the Bernie Bro crowd. Maybe she could have been worth a shot if regular Democrats like most of us could hold their noses and vote for her.
So my question is: could Gabbard have beaten Trump this year?
- Yes
- No

Don’t feel too bad, Kamala.
Poll 2: Who will be the Democratic nominee in 2028?
Not necessarily who would be the best for Americans, who you like best or who would most likely beat Vice President Vance, but who you predict would be the 2028 Democratic nominee.
- Gavin Newsom
- Josh Shapiro
- Andy Beshear
- Pete Buttigieg
- Gretchen Whitmer
- Other

Impossible to say for certain, but she would have done better than Harris in my opinion.

Impossible to say of course. Newsom is strong but divisive. Buttigieg is wonderful but may lack the rizz. Then again after Trump/Vance, the pendulum might swing to “Uber intelligent well spoken fancy pants guy oh also he’s a veteran.”
Gretch… I love you girl but after two women lost to the worst of the worst that the republicans have to offer, you’re unfortunately gonna have to sit this one out.
I also love me some Rafael Warnock. I’m firmly not a man of faith but his DNC speech had me tearing up and made me a believer. Shapiro/Warnock might be a solid ticket.

It can’t be anyone we’ve heard of these last 3 cycles. It needs to be new people coming up during this time. Tie the old familiar faces of the Republicans with the inevitable failure of a government they are about to have, and new fresh faces with closer connection to the working class for the Democrats, so that people are more willing to go in a new direction that is neither the failed republicans nor establishment democrats from Pelosi and Biden’s eras. If it keeps being the same people, the same names, we end up going in the same circles.

Hey, any old people here? I was born in 2002, never got to enjoy Bush. Did it feel like this in 2004 when Kerry lost?
No. Bush was an idiot and a terrible president, and a terrible person in general, but h wasn’t an actively malicious predator who literally marches several of the qualities the Anti-Christ is supposed to display, unlike Trump.
