The feckless butt-noodling of his buddies around the table is equally cringeworthy.

If men with guns and masks tried to pull me out of my car, I'd fight back. Courts should reject any claims by the government that this is aggression by the person being detained, resisting arrest, or that they're a flight risk.

How thrilled to be called "beautiful" by someone who smells like the farts of a thousand dead cheeseburgers.

How lucky we are to have Alex Jones, Joe Rogan, Bari Weiss, and Elon Musk all living in Austin! We could change our city motto from "Keep Austin Weird" to "Keep Austin Deranged."

When you are so repulsive that even the current butt-sucking cast of KKKlowns on the SCOTUS reject you.

GOOD! Alex Jones, loser extraordinaire, loses again.

Alex Jones loses Supreme Court bid to avoid paying $1.4B to Sandy Hook families

Lawyers for conspiracy theorist loser warned his website and assets will end up in the hands of his ‘nemesis’ and be ‘destroyed’ unless the justices get involved

lol I don't think he has her talent. They share the same black hole where a soul should be, but Vance doesn't make decisions. Weiss reminds me of how Trump's brain is hard-wired to use marketing tactics to create earworms. They're both by-products of a superficial culture.

She seems like a hustler to me.
A remarkably inauthentic person with the adaptability of a virus to present herself and her opinions of that moment, according to her desired audience.

It's a wonder they haven't been shot. Masked people trying to come in through your window . . . that sounds like a justifiable reason to believe your life is in danger

Do ICE agents even take an oath of office?
I mean, I know oaths don't matter to Republicans, but did they at least pretend for ten seconds that they were signing up for any reason other than to hurt brown people?

That Bari Weiss is a piece of work. How did CBS come up with her?

Workers are being threatened with RIFs, and when asked whether all federal employees would receive back pay after the shutdown, Trump replied, “It depends on who we’re talking about.” It’s the classic government motto: the beatings will continue until morale improves.

“They have to come to work. You got to show up. That’s your job,” Duffy said. Maybe someone should let the House know they have to work too.

Ah yes, air traffic controllers must show up for work without pay, but Congress can take the day off. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy says he’ll be making “necessary cuts” to the department, because nothing fixes staffing shortages quite like firing more people.

My favorite is, "Why did Obama let terrorists attack the WTC?"

It worries me that, for some, the only people who mattered were Jewish hostages. Israel created the pressure cooker that manifested Hamas and then blamed the Palestinians. Bibi is invading Palestine as surely as Russia is invading Ukraine.
