"What I do have are a very particular set of skills. Skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for the people at Hoover (and other fonts of misinformation)." Now 4/4.
I have no idea where this data comes from, but I do know that it sums to 146%, so color me suspicious. MAGA, of course, is eating it up.

For the love of god, can someone please explain this to me?

The lengths to which Hegseth is going to continue withholding that second tap boat strike should tell us all it's truly horrific. I can only think perhaps those two survivors were waving copies of the Epstein files.

I give you the party that does not believe in "participation trophies."

I'm willing to die on the hill that drug prices are not going to be reduced by 500-1500%.

Prove me wrong.

Every time I think things can’t get any more embarrassing. A Cracker Jacks medal to suck up to a toddler. Incredible.

Maybe if the NFL gives Trump a peace prize he’ll stop whining about some of the rule changes.

If only Bill Cassidy had been in a position to prevent this.

This is nostalgic for me. Reminds of the little trophies I would give out when I coached 3rd and 4th grade girls in softball. Same thing. 🏆🥇
this shit is just beyond parody, man

Trump re-upping this photo, apparently from 1983, which was his "Vietnam" era as he struggled mightily to avoid STDs.

The vast majority of tech broligarchs are not worthy of the respect and deference they expect and demand. Zuckerberg is Exhibit A.

$META "planning deep budget cuts for metaverse group."

🤣🤣🤣 No one ever could have foreseen that the metaverse was going to be a massive, truly epic, enormous waste of time and resources.

Is Trump’s awesome healthcare plan buried somewhere in the Epstein files? And I guess we’ll never see either?

The Trump administration has relentlessly cited the construction industry as the primary beneficiary of the $20T (LOL 🤪) of investments in the US. ADP apparently begs to differ. Someone's peddling fake news. Wonder who it is.

This letter from the Honduran president, which secured his pardon from Trump, is an object lesson in proper sucking up, taking it to new, unprecedented levels.

Yamarone used to joke about his photo of "the greatest hockey player of all time" standing beside Wayne Gretzky. That was Rich. Gone just over 8 years now and I still miss him, as I do the more recently departed Art Cashin. Two of the best.

It appears clear Trump will pardon everyone convicted during the previous administration (assuming he can get something from them, of course).

TIL that Jesus was a preemie. Who knew?

This is my favorite thing. He is correct that no previous president has done this.

So where are the Epstein files?

Just spitballing here, so hear me out, but maybe the problem with air travel is more the interminable delays, cancellations, and long lines and not people wearing slippers and pajamas.

Neither journo -- Andrew Ross Sorkin or Becky Quick -- bothered to challenge Bessent on his Sunday morning inflation LIES on Meet the Press. Great job, guys. Way to go. Allowing people to continue lying usually works out really well (as we're seeing on a daily basis).

Got my new energy bill today. Have to say I'm starting to lose confidence that it'll be down 50% from last year within the next month or two. Think I might have been duped. 😱
