That time Mike Pence went to go see Hamilton between the 2016 election and getting sworn in as VP, and the entire cast got on stage after the show and addressed him by saying "we hope you learned something, and that you'll use the power you're about to be given responsibly", and Pence basically blew them off.

quote:

In that respect, Hamilton probably is the “musical of the Obama era,” as The New Yorker called it. Contemporary progressivism has come to mean papering over material inequality with representational diversity. The president will continue to expand the national security state at the same rate as his predecessor, but at least he will be black. Predatory lending will drain the wealth from African American communities, but the board of Goldman Sachs will have several black members. Inequality will be rampant and worsening, but the 1% will at least “look like America.” The actual racial injustices of our time will continue unabated, but the power structure will be diversified so that nobody feels quite so bad about it. Hamilton is simply this tendency’s cultural-historical equivalent; instead of worrying ourselves about the brutal origins of the American state, and the lasting economic effects of those early inequities, we can simply turn the Founding Fathers black and enjoy the show.

glibly paraphrasing this article (it was twice a week)

this was funnier tho but I forgot


quote:

Next to Erdogan, no foreign leader initiated more calls with Trump than Macron, the sources said, with the French President often trying to convince Trump to change course on environmental and security policy matters -- including climate change and US withdrawal from the Iranian multilateral nuclear accord.
Macron usually got "nowhere" on substantive matters, while Trump became irritated at the French President's stream of requests and subjected him to self-serving harangues and lectures that were described by one source as personalized verbal "whippings," especially about France and other countries not meeting NATO spending targets, their liberal immigration policies or their trade imbalances with the US.

I don't think I understand the 9/11 conspiracy logic here. If Rumsfeld didn't want people to know the money was missing, why did he make a public speech about it? Surely if Rumsfeld could organize 9/11 he could get away with hiding a few trillion of embezzlement from our troops. I think it's pretty shocking that Rumsfeld did actually call out insane waste in the war budget in the first place.

I just remembered the time the Democrats had a sit in on the House floor to get Congress to pass the "no fly no buy" law that would ban anyone on the no fly list (ie. arab dudes arbitrarily deemed by government to be a "risk") from owning guns. The dems literally had a sit in to take away rights from POC

So he went through all the work to plan 9/11 to distract from a speech who could've not given in the first place?
