“He ain’t done nothing wrong to me. He has done only great things for me. He pardoned Michael Harris so I have nothing but love and respect for Donald Trump.” - Snoop because Donald pardoned the co-founder of Death Row Records Source Jan 29, 2024 - HuffPo

It’s really weird to see Snoop continuing to get treated like some sort of cross-generational wholesome Santa Claus. He’s just a run-of-the-mill selfish millionaire. There’s a reason he gets along so well with Martha Stewart. He has nothing in common with you and doesn’t give a shit about anything but himself and his personal brand. There are legit icons of Hip Hop worth celebrating and deserving of being beloved public figures, but Snoop Dogg is not one of them.

Edit: some of you appear to believe it’s okay to be a Trump supporter as long as Donald Trump did your buddy a favor. So allow me to clear this up, it’s not. Hell, supporting a fascist just because he did your buddy a favor is barely better than being openly fascist and only furthers my point that Snoop is a selfish piece of shit.

To expand on that, I think these are people looking to set themselves up for continued grifting in the post-Trump fascist movement. Being just critical enough “of the Trump campaign” now will allow them to say they jumped ship in August 2024 without actually committing to abandoning Trump until after the election. They want to be in a position to claim they were ahead of the curve due to their astute political acumen. But don’t want the short term fall out from actually doing it, nor the potential risk of being proven wrong in November.

It’s a transparent move, but it’ll be effective on the post-Trump MAGA base, as these are generally not bright people.

You just normally see an article about a Sunday press appearance earlier than Saturday.

Holy shit dude. For the last time, the article is about the founder of the National Black Farmer Association’s comments regarding what JD Vance said. That’s why it was written on Friday. Vance’s comments were from Sunday. Then the NBFA’s founder spoke out about it days later. I literally cannot dumb this down for you any more than I already have.

If you don’t understand that an article written on Friday, which refers to an event on “Sunday” without any additional qualifiers, is always going to be referring to the most recent Sunday and not the future… Then I don’t know what to tell you, this isn’t rocket science.

Yes. The article, published on Friday, is about the founder of the National Black Farmers Association responding to something JD Vance said on Sunday. This should not be confusing you this much.

Correct. JD Vance said a thing on Sunday. The founder of the National Black Farmers Association responded. Mother Jones then wrote an article about it on Friday. This is a fairly standard sequence of events for the news. Except, of course, in that old tv show, Early Edition, about the guy who’d get tomorrow’s newspaper today and then have to prevent some tragedy from happening in every episode.

LMAO

I have no trouble believing Joe Rogan’s support for RFK Jr. is genuine, but sure, we can pretend he’s just doing it to get attention for his humble little $250mil podcast. It’s not like he’s got a decade’s long public history of being a stupid fucking meathead or anything…

I wanted to post this in !LeopardsAteMyFace@lemmy.world but that community appears to have been shut down a few months ago.

But anyway, I say good. Let them fight!

The made up kind.

State of play: Walz doesn’t own a single stock, according to financial disclosures and confirmed by a spokesperson. Same goes for his wife Gwen, per tax filings.

• His disclosures, both from his final year in Congress and his time as Minnesota governor, also show no mutual funds, bonds, private equities, or other securities.

• No book deals or speaking fees or crypto or racehorse interests.

• Not even real estate. The couple sold their Mankato, Minnesota, home after moving into the governor’s mansion, for below the $315k asking price).

Zoom in: Their only investment assets appear to be via state pensions, including teacher pensions.

That idiot is just making things up. They clearly don’t know anything at all about Tim Walz. Who, as far as finances goes, appears to have more in common with middle class families than any VP candidate in a century.

Yeah, I watched his speech at the PA rally tonight and it was excellent. The dude’s just a refreshing voice in national politics. I think he stands a great chance of delivering a lot of independents who are just looking for some common sense out of a politician.

“A society grows great when old men plant trees whose shade they know they shall never sit in.”

Oh Republicans will accept federal funds for all sorts of things. It’s just that they‘re morally opposed to helping children avoid starvation.

Don’t worry folks, taking bribes from foreign nations is probably just one of those “official acts” the Supreme Court was talking about.
