I had never seen the American Eagle ads until they were posted here, and I am still unaware of the Jaguar ads which are allegedly so offensive.

Hell, I haven't even bothered to watch the American Eagle ads. It's a total non issue, no matter how much the right wing propaganda ecosystem wants it to be.

I hate to ask, but…what is “woke” about that commercial?

 

[CFordUNC]

Man, there are a whole lot of homoerotic tweets coming out of the administration lately.

Multiple ethnicities. Plus size models. Androgyny. Vibrant colors. A guy who looks like Andy Warhol.

[korgguy1971]

Trump will post that it was somehow an Obama-Biden appointed Democrata judge, and it's a total broma and a bruja hunt

“…
The reactor directive orders the agency to solicit industry proposals for a 100 kilowatt nuclear reactor to launch by 2030, a key consideration for astronauts’ return to the lunar surface. NASA previously funded research into a 40 kilowatt reactor for use on the moon, with plans to have a reactor ready for launch by the early 2030s.

The first country to have a reactor could “declare a keep-out zone which would significantly inhibit the United States,” the directive states, a sign of the agency’s concern about a joint project China and Russia have launched….”

He’s rivaling Rand Paul for a ludicrous amount of hair gel for a man his age.

I'm sure that Trumpers will just dismiss this as "Deep State woke elitists" crashing his town hall to embarrass him. Just like any meeting or town hall they attend where they get yelled at or shouted down by angry constituents is actually just a bunch of anti-American LibDems trying to embarrass them in spite of the awesome job Dear Leader is doing (or so Rammy claims).

How much money are of the fossil fuel companies funneling to Trump? Hell, is this essentially the Saudi’s buying American policy?

Of all future destroying shit trump does, ceding renewable energy to China may be the worst. One could certainly argue destroying our medical research infrastructure is worse, but this fossil fuel fetish (corruption) is going to turn the US into a petro state, with no economic future beyond archaic combustion and AI oligarchs.
