"We have a rising new Dem star who really engages with people, and is sure to win their next election."

DEM LEADERSHIP: That's fantastic.

"What are the next steps?"

DEM LEADERSHIP: Simple. Force them to step aside and throw their support behind this 80-year-old lifetime politician.

This weekend, three men in Evanston hugged their families goodbye to look for work at Home Depot but were attacked by ICE before they could return home.

Two were abducted, one is petrified of leaving the home.

I'm of two minds on analytics. It goes without saying that they've ruined sports. They ruin everything because they drain the humanity out of human events. I still like them because I enjoy knowing about things.

To be fair football analytics, compared to those of baseball, are still in their infancy. And there’s still a huge contingent of baseball people and broadcasters who hate them.

The Portland Frog army has now infiltrated Tulsa, OK and they’ve made an unlikely alliance with the T-Rex infantry and Sharks on Hoverboards mercenary forces.

This is truly terrifying.

Chris Christie: “Thie is no longer, the Department of Justice, is no longer the premier prosecuting office in America. What it is now is a capo regime who goes out and executes hits when directed by the Don to do so. That’s what it is.”

My guess is these world leaders may come to regret this circle jerk they just afforded Trump in the very near future. It’s weird to lose respect for everyone all at once but that’s life. This was basically the Epcot Center version of a Trump cabinet meeting.

The US right-wing used to flip out over stuff like gay wedding cakes or people saying "happy holidays", because they said it was a war on Christianity .

Now, there are masked goons camping outside of churches to try and kidnap parishioners. An actual war, on actual Christians.

And they love it.

Auspicious start for the new CBS News, laundering unattributed cop shit-talking through the incoming editor-in-chief’s blog and failing to correct a misspelling of the story subject’s name in the web headline for three days.
