Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

I'm not misremembering this, am I? He was like full-on outed as a pedo and then nothing happened?

[–] Sulvor@hexbear.net 139 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Yes, he was involved in trafficking underage girls across state lines

[–] Adkml@hexbear.net 95 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yea and he got off because his buddy flipped on him and they successfully used the argument "you can't believe anything that guy says he's a convicted pedophile."

Bill Clinton not only still walks the earth but was actively involved in Harris's campaign

[–] Barx@hexbear.net 6 points 21 hours ago

He even did a late October "Palestinians deserve this" speech in Michigan

[–] Adkml@hexbear.net 40 points 1 day ago (1 children)

At least it appears the universe is trying to impose karmatic justice on the Clinton's and Kamala.

These assholes are failing upward faster than anybody I've ever seen.

pedos took over the government and made him Attorney General so they can all get away with being pedos.

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 51 points 1 day ago

Charitable interpretation: it's referring to all the old people who go there to retire to a beach condo.

This news just got a blank stare out of me . With Boebert heading Education and the whole Doge Dept thing, I genuinely don't know how I'm supposed to process it.

Edit: apparently the Boebert thing is a meme.

[–] Philosoraptor@hexbear.net 27 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The Boebert thing was a hoax (so-far )

[–] Infamousblt@hexbear.net 71 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I'm convinced Trump just opened up ChatGPT and asked it who would be the worst and funniest person for each of these cabinet positions

[–] BodyBySisyphus@hexbear.net 69 points 1 day ago (3 children)

It's fine, if the nominations are bad the Senate can always exercise restraint - snnnkk - and - hehe - refuse - bwahaha - refuse to confirm the unsuitable nominees.

At least the confirmation hearings promise to be entertaining as hell.

[–] barrbaric@hexbear.net 69 points 1 day ago

Sadly no Democrat would be so uncivil as to ask "Hey wait aren't you a pedophile who sex-trafficked children across state lines?"

Incredible things are happening in the executive branch dumpster-fire

[–] someone@hexbear.net 32 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I have to admit, it has been entertaining to see /r/politics completely losing their minds at Trump's picks.

[–] QuillcrestFalconer@hexbear.net 30 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I'd go so far as to say r/politics is even readable and entertaining right now because they're loosing their minds, instead of gaslighting us that they're not supporting genocide

[–] HamManBad@hexbear.net 23 points 1 day ago (5 children)

I forgot how fucking entertaining Trump was as president. Horrible fascist policies, of course, but it makes for great TV
