Rubio orders US diplomats to return to using Times New Roman font in official documents, saying that Biden administration decision to adopt Calibri was “another wasteful DEIA program.” https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/dec/10/trump-times-new-roman-font-return-state-department What happened to America First? Times New Roman is British!
Why do you keep responding then? That’s a choice, your choice. You have agency. Auria isn’t a moderator. You can put him on ignore and get on with your life. Yet you don’t choose that option.
Oh, get over yourself! I don't have any influence over the population as a whole. They listen to Whites, as you know.
No, he’s not!!!! We have long since passed the point where if you haven’t figured out he isn’t better than this, it’s on you for responding, not him for being racist. Are you stupid or secretly masochistic? It’s gotta be one or the other.
I was being a bit snarky, but as I stated later, the points I made/questions I asked are socialist policies in which Democrats run on. He wants to punch socialists. Fine. But he has never, once, defined the difference between a democrat and a socialist. All he is doing is using the term without definition or positions of policy.
I would like to remind you that I was once passed over for a promotion because I was White and other candidate was Black (as I understood it then, we were fairly equally qualified). And the person who did the hiring was Black. And I had no problem with it.
I'm just that great a conversationalist Despite being a two-faced coward when it comes to getting in where he fits in, Quacks is tougher than you are. He doesn't need to put me on ignore. He doesn't have your posting history.
Will the 21st Century Nabobs Win Their War on Public Accountability? https://t.co/Z3LUiwkWkz via @TPM— Josh Marshall (@joshtpm) December 9, 2025 yeah, it’s a tweet, but it also has a gift link so I out it here. Josh has written before of how the New Gilded Age has a class of (centi)billionaires who are stronger than the US government, and what that means. His post here makes an analogy to Englishmen who made fortunes in the early days of the East India Company taking over India, and then came back to England and used their cash to distort English politics and also to bid up the cost of everything.

The BS ignore feature is kind of funny and a waste of time imo. Auria’s racist ranting doesn’t usually bother me that much…tonight he’s in rare form though, even by his standards. I’m hoping it’s just the booze talking but that’s no excuse really. Interesting character but he’s got a whole lot of toxic racial stuff rattling around in there…can’t be good.
That's not why dave has me on ignore. Tell him I said wipe his chin- water's not the only thing that'll extinguish a vigil candle. Tears work just as well
Trump son-in-law Jared Kushner is investor in Paramount’s hostile takeover bid of Warner Bros https://www.independent.co.uk/news/...tile-takeover-warner-bros-trump-b2880411.html Of course DJT wants to get involved with his merger. He has to make a few million off it.
CNN. They want control over CNN. They are getting control of all the news sources. (CNN is part of Warner Bros.)
You keep on repeating this as if it is a fact, but it is not supported by the data. A September 2025 Pew Research survey suggest up to 80% of Americans are at least somewhat concerned about starvation in Gaza, many of them extremely/very concerned. https://www.pewresearch.org/politic...-the-war/pp_2025-10-03_israel-hamas-war_0-03/
Plenty of research showing it hurt Biden/Harris with the kidzzz I think it's relevance now is if you are trying to position yourself as someone who fights for the working class and against the big money interests, blob, DC elites etc - that is problematic if you are still on the side of shipping billions in weapons to the middle east. It's a credibility hit with the yoots.
Regardless of whether or not it directly influenced the election, it is bizarre to claim no one in America cares about it.
Won't this prior change largely have to do with the change of default fonts in MS Word? Though the move away from Times New Roman happened a long time ago and the current default is Aptos. It was Calibri prior to it being Aptos though.
