So Bari Weiss’s first real editorial intervention at CBS is to repress coverage of American concentration camps.

Incandescent and logging off for a bit. Truly, vote blue no matter who sorts, I dare you to defend Cuellar, Davis, and Gonzalez's votes. Tell me how they had to do this. Show me the calculus that makes it make sense. At bare minimum, state your case so your hollow cowardice is in the public record.

Three Democrats (Cuellar, Gonzalez, and Davis) joined the Republicans to pass Marjorie Taylor Greene's federal ban on gender affirming care through the House of Representatives.

It is repugnant that the federal government won't give people health care, but it will TAKE IT AWAY from trans people.

Rob Reiner had a hand in making at least one of everybody’s favorite movies, and on top of that was a tireless crusader for decency and equality in the world. RIP to him and to Michele Singer.

The cultural impact of Rob Reiner cannot be understated. Legend isn't big enough a word. It goes to 11. You can't handle the truth. As you wish. I'll have what she's having. I'm your number one fan. You guys wanna see a dead body? The very idea of a bucket list. The West Wing.

All from his movies.

Watching IF I HAD LEGS I’D KICK YOU and Conan O’Brien (!) giving one of the best dramatic performances (???) of the year was not what I was expecting?? Rose Byrne Oscar Now, too, obviously

There should be an Oscar for Best Single Scene so they could give it to the Adam Sandler/Patrick Wilson scene in JAY KELLY, what a delight

Congrats to all the writers who made the 2025 Black List, particularly all the first-timers! I see a lot of free water bottles in your future #screenwriting

The sheer hubris it takes to type this out despite also voting yea to confirm the Ag Secretary pictured in the link is mind-bending. If Adam Schiff had an ounce of shame he'd spend the character limit apologizing, not cosplaying concern.
This is where we are now. Families are starving in the wealthiest nation in the world.

Meanwhile the president is intentionally trying to cut off food for hungry people who live in states that did not vote for him.

It's not just immoral — it's un-American.

As someone who gets paid to read other people’s writing and give them feedback, I would have to come up with so many friendly euphemisms for “this is awful” to spare this person’s feelings
At least 40% of the book is just tortured descriptions of her surroundings.

Lotta great shows this year but DEATH BY LIGHTNING is the one that Netflix somehow assembled a killer cast and spent many millions on solely for me, “weirdly funny period political assassination drama starring Michael Shannon and Nick Offerman” is pretty much all I ever want to see

All the Epstein emails are powerful elites saying shit like “Hello my friend the pedophile, i need your advice as a pedophile, what do you think about this other pedophile? Pedophilic Regards, your Friend ;)” and instead of swinging from a gibbet most of them are still writing op-eds against leftism
