If you should come across one or all of these books somewhere in the wild, won't you open up your hearts and take them home? They'll love you just as much as you love them, and they won't claw up the furniture.

When is a coup not a coup but is really a coup? When the president of the United States threatens to bankrupt a sovereign nation (Argentina) unless the electorate returns his hand-picked crony candidate to power.

I have come to suspect that everyone online trying to excuse and push writers into using AI is actually an AI bot loosed on the world by Big Tech desperate to recruit users of its lousy product. This may be paranoia...but I think there's some truth to it.

What a travesty! What a miscarriage of justice.The Nobel Peace Prize is worthless! It should have gone to a great American who has touched hearts worldwide. It should have gone to Bad Bunny!

Three thousand Mexican runners are set to arrive in Chicago this weekend for the Marathon, even as the National Guard is set to deploy. This should be fun.

When a Cabinet secretary vows they will not reveal to the congressional oversight committee the contents of a conversation with the president, I just assume that they weren't listening to whatever Donnie spewed and are embarrassed to admit it.

In Chicago this weekend.

Trump's thugs beat the hell out of this young guy who was just standing there.

He is now in the hospital.

The thug who beat him was doxxed by the female activist who Border Patrol shot on Saturday.

He went from the scene of the shooting to this.

They said hikers, but whether they know the difference between the two, I don't know. They said they are trapped at 16,000 ft.

Insurrection=the act of rolling your eyes at anything Trump says.

HUNDREDS of hikers are stranded on Mt. Everest due to a snowstorm. HUNDREDS. Sure, I'd climb Mt. Everest myself if it weren't so crowded all the time. I knew this would happen when they opened a Starbuck's on the summit.
