He was a DOJ employee? Defying an illegal occupation while wearing Bermuda shorts and a pink polo shirt?

Preppy Power has been roused from its slumber!

This is truly a bellwether: last time guys who look like this engaged in civil disobedience, they got SCOTUS to throw the 2000 election to Bush.
AG Bondi says a DOJ employee has been fired after he was arrested for allegedly throwing a wrapped Subway sandwich at a federal law enforcement officer in Washington, D.C.

Following his arrest, the man allegedly told one of the arresting officers: “I did it. I threw a sandwich.” wapo.st/3Uq59TN

Waiting like a teenager for his prom date & clapping his teeny little hands for the bloody dictator...

Is this the most humiliating spectacle ever created by a US president?

__ Yes
__ Hell yes

Bonus:

If you lived through the Cold War, does this image make your head spin?

__ Yes
__ Kill me now

It's always been a capital crime to commit insubordination against male supremacy; enforcement happened in private domestic settings.

Now that we're no longer pretending women are full citizens of the US--cf abortion rights--officers of the law join openly in enforcing the male supremacist regime.
The MAGA regime is currently doubling down on its tactical stance of “we will kill women like dogs for merely displeasing us.”

My research shows that impunity has become a status symbol among political elites globally. They compete to see what outrages they can get away with; they observe & assist each other. Ex: Trump using tariffs to help Bolsonaro dodge accountability. Bigger picture:

Trump’s Very Ordinary Indifference to the Common Good
Blowing off tax obligations and public-health dictates makes the president an all too typical member of a self-indulgent global elite.

Trump has already been seething for 15+ years because The Black Man won the prize and he didn't. That was enough to seize the White House and attempt to burn down US democracy.

For a Latin American woman to get the same prize while Trump gets passed over? That's enough to burn down *her* country.

This is the logical endpoint of 40+ years of telling Americans
that "government should be run like a business."

If that's true, then the government is subject to purchase by the highest bidder--indeed, it's subject to a hostile takeover. Which is what Musk has just executed.

You need to think much closer to home: the Venn diagram of men who abuse women in private and shoot them in public is a circle.

Trump seems to have a real affinity for slavery, both the sexual kind that involves trafficking young women & the kind that involves trafficking men into other kinds of forced labor--as in the deportations to CECOT prison in El Salvador.

The media doesn't seem to recognize the connection btw the 2.

Motion to inaugurate the term "Molotov Cocktail Mom."

America is such a deeply misogynist country that a whole decade of Trump still hasn't driven home the central lesson he offers:

Misogyny & sexual assault aren't unfortunate private hobbies.

They are the OG forms of oppression. When a man degrades women that's political & he's an oppressor, period.

"don't make enough money" is a fig leaf

All those degree programs--social work, art, etc.--have disproportionately female student bodies.

This is designed to make it harder for women to attend college--college education being a key factor in women's autonomy from men & left-leaning voting pattern.
President Trump is banning students majoring in degrees that don’t make enough money from taking out college loans. Degrees for social work, art, religious studies, teaching aides, and music will be hit the hardest. trib.al/aaAEu6v

How broligarchs can recoup their investments in crypto & AI--technologies the free market has largely rejected.

1. Crash the US economy & dollar; present crypto as the "solution" to stabilize the disaster they created.

2. Weld AI into gov systems like Air Traffic Control, so we're stuck with it.

Hey Jacobin: misogyny IS the most pervasive driver of economic inequality.

Don't take it from me, Mere Female: take it from Nobel winner Amartya Sen whose major thesis in "Development As Freedom" is that oppression of women puts the brakes on prosperity everywhere.

The politics of the right-wing are those of the common wife-beater, brought from behind closed doors into the public sphere.

Very reminiscent of the Cultural Revolution in China, when Mao used millions of children--13 to 18 years old--to tear down government institutions, torture and kill experts, and roam the country in a reign of terror.

It went "too far" in the sense of getting "too close" to the nexus linking depraved patriarchs globally.

What the Epstein files show is that across social domains--business, science, politics, education--men at the tops of their fields bond and compete for status through violent misogyny.
I keep thinking again, in light of the latest Epstein files dump, about how MeToo “went too far.”
