a purging of university professors and administrators is critical.

Why would the World's greatest collection of higher education institutions need purging? They lead the way in helping to produce the greatest military and economy in the world. Students from all over the world come here and the country seemingly benefits greatly from their presence.

What example institutions will American universities be modeled after once the purging is done?

How do you expect to handle the current load of students with a significant drop in professors?

I am curious about the administrative costs and any room to cut costs though purging seems quite a bit more drastic. American universities are basically hospitality industry members for students these days, along with higher education institutions. Hospitality tends to have high administrative costs. Where do you see the purging in admin targeting specifically? Student services? Academic support? Facilities management?

“I have no idea who is behind it,”

"They've been told officially, legally, in every way, that we have nothing to do with Project 25,” Trump said. “They know it, but they bring it up anyway. They bring up every single thing that you can bring up. Every one of them was false.”

“Anything they do, I wish them luck, but I have nothing to do with them.”

“But I don’t know anything about it, I don’t want to know anything about it.”

Gotta keep the rest of the country barefoot, ignorant and stupid while the real masters of humanity reap all the benefits. Because, you know, rich people have been taking it in the shorts in America since 1980.

The problem is that Macklemore, and far too many morons like him, thinks that he’s one of said masters. He thinks he’s someone who’s going to be benefiting from all that chickenshit Project 2025 horror novel. He has absolutely no idea that Project 2025 envisions people exactly like him as one of its victims and he so easily does it because he, once again, is one of those dipshit losers that worked themselves into believing that 1) politics is a team sport, 2) his team won, 3) therefore he “won.” He has no idea that he didn’t win shit. 

It reminds me of something pre-insanity Bill Maher said back in 2000. He said something about he was watching the NBA playoffs and noted that guys cared way too much about who wins. This is a paraphrase, but it went something like “I can’t stand guys who say “we won!” No, you didn’t “win” anything. Ten black guys who would hate you, if they knew you, won.”

The assumption underlying all this is that normal people are so weak-minded that the occasional ridiculously liberal professor immediately introduces groupthink that can never be overcome.

Of course, that's the way it works with their media sources, so I guess its certainly true of them.

You should help her become comfortable with a gun and to get her concealed carry license.  Not that she would have been justified in using it in this case, but because it will give her some peace of mind that she can protect herself if someone like that wants to get serious.  It’s without a doubt the American way.

These jackasses like you describe want to make everyone else uncomfortable.  So people like your step daughter are beset with fear and either retreat to the kitchen to quiver or flee the area so it becomes more of a MAGA monoculture.  Her being capable of defending herself will go a long way to allowing her to exist with peace of mind in the world she has found herself in.

Nope. Look at who they target. They pick and choose their targets carefully. They aren't coming at me with that bullshit and I am surrounded by Trumpers.

You are missing the point.  A young lady has been made to live in fear when she was targeted as someone powerless to protect herself if push came to shove.  Well, she does not have to accept that position of powerlessness, and her dad/husband/boyfriend can’t be with her 100% of the time.

Why are you singling out Latinos here? I fucking love this plan. To stage a successful counter-revolution, which make no mistake, Trump 2.0 is and what True Believers like myself are demanding, a purging of university professors and administrators is critical. Trump now has an ideological underpinning that he didn’t have in his first term. Coupled with his experience and staffing his Administration with loyalists, y’all are going to have whiplash witnessing the most consequential sea change in government since FDR. Can’t wait.

When they hold up my picture next to your picture when choosing "who is the bad guy here", I'll sleep well knowing where their convictions will take them.

I am not missing the point at all. I understand the assignment. I was just dressing the statement that they want to make "everyone" uncomfortable which is untrue. They are targeting women, and while a gun may make her feel comfortable, she cannot use it in these situations.

Who was jumping out the windows? The Johnny Sacks. People who had been through some shit just shrugged their shoulders and kept it moving. I hope Trump drives this mother fucker into the ditch just like '29 so we can get some real progressive change. Maybe we will lose a few Sacks and Increduwhatevers along the way.

Don't think so. Pattern emerging. His appointees look like what he wants MAGA to think he is all about. Kind of pretty women, rural, but yet strong in their careers. Rural backing, right wing areas. Marco. The 1 Latino friend you have to prove you are not racist.

None of them are threats to him and will do his bidding. Leaving their posisitons just does not jeopardize the party on the state level. The hardliners being appointed do not need confirmation. If you vote against Noem or Marco then you are a lying Dem who hates women and latinos.

serious question here, there is a part of the board called IPIHB right and there is some pretty trashy stuff that takes place there. Is the porn industry which just absolutely destroys most women's lives that are a part of it any better than the president saying I grab chicks by the pussy or banging an aide then ruining her life like clinton did? There must be a thousand pictures of women butt ass naked on this site and I have zero clue if all of them were willing participants in sharing their nudes with everybody. We degrade women on this site constantly but nobody is trying to "be the good guy" here. We run just about every part of society you can think of into the ground at some point just for laughs.

Not arguing with the majority of your post, but can you explain this part?

How did Clinton ruin Monica Lewinsky's life?  If anyone was to blame for dragging her name through the mud it was the GOP, but regardless, she has a net worth about $50 million.

Do you think that would have happened without the publicity she received?

Money is great but she went through some pretty dark shit to get it. Money can’t undo people treating you like a piece of garbage for years on end. I’m sure she’s fine now but that was quite the ordeal to go through. It was more to highlight how Clinton used women and then cast them aside when he longer needed them, absolutely abusing his power to get what he wanted.
