#Reaffirmation
Everytime someone calls Trump “President Donald J. Trump” is like reaffirmation that this is the cultiest cult to ever cult

Self reaffirmation, because even he knows he’s full of shit. He’s trying to convince himself

Today's reaffirmation of the easterly rise of the sun & the cohesive & adhesive properties of water
That is an incidence rate of… 0.00547%

The voter fraud allegations you’ve been sold are blatantly and provably false.

It’s been fun having people pretend as if we’re not seeing the reaffirmation of a pro-police consensus all week.
Anyway it’s probably bad that if you go on the wikipedia page for “defund the police,” the origins of the term are defined by Matt Yglesias.

A reminder that my team is trying to bring some joy and reaffirmation of human agency to this anniversary with the 250 to 250 videos. Here's Pete Buttigieg talking about the Erie Canal, for example:

It's a reaffirmation that civic virtue is something we can cultivate, not an alchemy that can never be recovered once lost.
it is an underrated miracle of the 21st century that we really did massively, massively reduce bullying in schools
My experience as well. So far we're 2-for-2 on kids having a largely bullying/abuse-free middle school experience. Not without bumpy spots of course, but light years away from what I endured.

My hot take: the anti-bullying stuff has really worked, which is why conservatives are pushing back at it.

The reaffirmation of norms does not require unilateral disarmament!

"for humans, by humans"

Doubles as a reaffirmation of inclusiveness.

Australia’s 2025 election is more than a political outcome. It is a philosophical reaffirmation that power, when untethered from fear, returns to its rightful source. The people. In casting their votes, Australians did not just choose leaders. They reclaimed authorship of their future.

Trump's Cueller pardon is an reaffirmation of his support for all corruption, and especially foreign bribery. This is great news for alleged foreign influence agents Robert Menendez (Egypt, Qatar), Pras Michel (Malaysia, China), and maybe Miles Guo (China?).

Sometimes you just gotta listen to David Lynch telling bigoted people to "Fix their hearts or die" as a reaffirmation of the goodness in the world.

Every budget they propose is a reaffirmation of the basic idea that low taxes spur growth. There's a reason marginal tax rates are still 37 percent.
Name a policy a Democratic President proposed that is based on Reaganism, especially trickle down economics.

It's so punishingly obvious that many left-liberal types feel completely unrestrained in petty displays of sadism and hierarchal reaffirmation against trans people at this point. Grueling to watch your nominal allies hold their fingers to the wind and decide they can hurt you.

9. The American Psychological Association's reaffirmation of its support for transgender youth health care is significant. Many readers of Singal were left with the wrong impression, and this latest story is yet more proof that the NYT and Singal continue to try to manufacture doubt on trans care.

The Invasion Day Rally in Nipaluna (Hobart) was yet again the biggest I’ve seen. Gone are the days of less than 100 of us marching and fighting with people along the way.
Great speakers with great messages including reaffirmation of our solidarity with Palestine.

they had their chance and their little conclave fucked up.

Despite the heated rhetoric floating around today, our decision to update our algorithms to launch a "microdrone" containing a small shaped charge capable of maiming any user who "seems gay" should not be seen as anything other than a reaffirmation of our commitments to fostering free speech

It’s literally just a reaffirmation of DODI 3000.09 I am going to go insane.
OpenAI says its DOD agreement upholds its redlines and "has more guardrails than any previous agreement for classified AI deployments, including Anthropic's" (OpenAI)

Katie Wilson is in Beacon Hill this afternoon announcing a brand new executive order targeting changes dealing with traffic safety across city government. The five-section order is beefy, and I think it represents the biggest reaffirmation of Vision Zero in Seattle since the initial 2015 commitment.

The Cascadia region partnership between Washington state, British Columbia, and Oregon reflects the shared values of our region — practical problem-solving and a commitment to progress.

Proud to sign a Memorandum of Reaffirmation to strengthen our collaboration.
