TRUMP [after spending 5 minutes with Zohran]: surplus value, it’s a very wonderful thing, very wonderful, and they’re stealing it. Can you believe that?

We’re going to be looking very strongly at the bourgeoisie, what they’re up to

The dog appears to be sleeping on the 450 dollar Spheel plush from Pokemon Center, so I think he's having a great time.

I've supported this a while ago. This would be a instant buy for me at nearly any cost.

Hey Axios, that’s called a bribe.
Coinbase donated to Trump's $300 million White House ballroom project as an appeal to the administration, Emilie Choi, the cryptocurrency exchange's president and COO, said at Axios' BFD event today.
Exclusive: Coinbase explains donation to Trump's ballroom
Tech firms like Google, Amazon, and Nvidia also donated to Trump's ballroom fund.

It is funny that after long time James Franklin assistant Brent Pry is fired, VT goes out and gets the real thing.

Franklin will be fine at VT

Antisemitism is a lot like Qanon child abuse conspiracies in that there’s this real and bad phenomenon and, parallel to that, what can only be described as a large scale mass psychosis about a mostly fictional version of the same phenomenon

First back to back winning regular seasons for Illinois since 89-90.

Two of the three losses have also been to the clear top 2 teams in the country. Been another great Illini season under Bert.

The Maryland defender getting a roughing flag after getting trucked by Luke Altmyer is hilarious

The entire purpose of Lolita as a novel is that it's linguistic sleight of hand to goad the reader into sympathizing with an evil monster. Lots of people fall for that trap, but I wouldn't expect the fucking Powell M. Cabot Professor of American Literature at Harvard University to be one of them.
Interesting email here from Elisa New, Harvard professor and wife to Larry Summers, to Epstein, reflecting on Lolita.

"...it's about a man whose life is stamped forever by his impression of a young girl."

The #Illini playing this well against Tech with all the injuries is a fantastic sign for this season. Thinking it'll be another special year.

the reality is that they have already won & they do not want to change anything. they want a strong republican party, as they say often. the only time they put any work in is to sabotage candidates running to the left of them, otherwise they just sit around doing insider trading
