Joyce is relentlessly hit on by a pre-Karen Mike Pence.
started the new Stranger Things episodes and I’m just gonna say it: Hawkins seems like a suboptimal place to live

I’m beginning to think of our current conflict not as a shift of administrations or national priorities, but zooming out, a power struggle between two different nations, one in place and one insurgent.

That contextualizes things vis a vis abuses of power and winning by any means necessary.

I know it’s been said before, but when Bill Kristol manages to define the Trump administration with more precision than elected Democrats and the mainstream media, we are thoroughly cooked
It’s wrong to lump all top Trump people in one category. There are differences among them. But they do seem to fall into three (sometimes overlapping) categories:

• Ordinary criminals (grift and corruption).

• Sex criminals.

• War criminals.

State Dept. Spokesperson now refuting GOP and Dem senators’ account of their joint briefing from Rubio - and claiming the 28 point plan IS authored by the US.

Hard to believe several senators would have fundamentally misunderstood what Rubio told them.

Breathtakingly dysfunctional government.

Q: “Are you affirming you think Trump is a fascist?”

TRUMP: “That’s ok, you can just say yes.”

ZOHRAN: “Ok. Yes.”

The weird thing is with Donald Trump just said about Zohran Mandani is what every Democrat should’ve said about Zohran Mamdani the moment he secured the Democratic nomination.

It was a dark and stormy night.

Robert lay beside me to my right, the bear carcass beside him to his right.

“Vaccines, amirite” I heard him mutter in his sleep.

I climaxed silently but with great satisfaction.
For years, there was a "Bad Hemingway Contest," in which readers would parody Ernest's writing, w/ hilarious results..

That Nuzzi excerpt, with lines like these, ought to generate a contest of its own.

we gotta keep hammering over and over again just how fucking unpopular this guy is with every institution and every person in a position of power

people hate him and people will hate you for capitulating to him
Enten: "This is probably the worst 10 day period for the president in the polls his entire second term. The numbers are just atrocious ... when your best poll has you 14 points underwater, you know it's truly bad and it's as bad as 26 points underwater ... -43 with independents! They despise him."

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.

If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

I’m surprised he didn’t tuck in “San Francisco values” and “welfare queens“ into that conservative mad lib.
In an unhinged dissent in our Texas redistricting victory, a GOP appointed judge seems to believe that George Soros and I did...well, I'm not sure what...but he is very mad. Bigly.

Republicans don’t understand that being in the majority means always governing

Democrats don’t understand that being in the minority means always campaigning
A friend of mine explained why some Democratic voters find Democratic elected officials so grating these days and why Republicans step on every rake: “Republicans don’t know how to be in the majority and Democrats don’t know how to be in the minority.”

Hot take: “the usual suspects“ doesn’t age well because in 1995, it was impossible for audiences to believe that an enfeebled dimwit could be the head of a criminal enterprise.
