It's funny to see appeals to common Americans for decency to occur during the global transnational pedophiles that all rule world conference.

Bill Simmons can be oddly silent—or, at best, tongue tied—when something bad happens involving gambling. I devoted a section to him and The Ringer in my new book, EVERYBODY LOSES, and am grateful that @defector.com published an excerpt today (no paywall):

In all seriousness I think it's time we stop expecting more from The Washington Post (a Bezos-owned publication that refused to endorse anyone by owner fiat) or The New York Times (with its documented desire to fan flames of transphobia) and instead recognize them as right wing propaganda rags.
Is the Washington Post just PragerU now?

Democracy dies in darkness indeed.

These same brainless fuckwits have been hiring cheap labor from overseas for decades and now they’re gonna spit in the face of all the people that built their shitty Yes Man Computers. The bubble could pop today and it wouldn’t be soon enough
“There will be more than enough jobs for the citizens of your nation, esp. those with vocational training,” said Karp. “I do think these trends really do make it hard to imagine why we should have large-scale immigration unless you have a very specialized skill.”

I’m tired of being talked down to by people like this. They are doing the Elon Musk Mars In 2 Years bit but have tied the entire U.S. economy to a bespoke compliment generator. It’s time to start talking about these AI mutants like delusional babies.

I try to be sensitive to not proclaiming things to be new that are not new, but I’m not aware of a time when this has been the way a president talked about other countries with which we had no conflict. Certainly not in my lifetime.
For instance: "Canada lives by the benefit of the United States. Remember that, Mark, when you make your statements."

Senator Ted Cruz (R-Texas) was spotted earlier today, January 20, 2026, on a plane heading to Laguna Beach as the state of Texas braces for a rare ice threat and arctic cold front.

Every day some story breaks me some. Today it’s the guy who approached parents at a school patrol, told them he was with Indivisible, and asked about how the patrol system works. The parents gave vague answers, followed him back to his car — and of course it was ICE.

Really, though, I actually kinda like this phenomenon. I'm Southern, so we get this all the time from other Americans, mainly in blue states. So having them experience this same poorly nuanced hatred is a real "grab the popcorn" moment for me.

'Is There A Plan Behind Trump's Confusion of Greenland and Iceland' will appear somewhere tomorrow, I'm sure.

people invested in the idea that the system can still work will do anything to avoid the reality of the president's deluded ignorance.

The thing that is distinctive about Rubio is that he likely doesn't believe any of this shit serves U.S. national interests. It is all just sacrifice at the alter of ambition to one day be President.
Trump says Secretary of State Marco Rubio, the nation's top diplomat, taught him diplomacy. Rubio abetted the deaths of hundreds of thousands via end of USAID, the return of Russia to the world stage, the humiliation of Zelensky & Ramaphosa in the Oval Office, & the jailing of students for speech.

I keep thinking about them saying "haven't you learned [from Renee Good's murder]" and... they don't understand why people are still coming out after they've shown they can and will kill us, because they're cowards, and they don't understand what it's like not to be a coward

If you work for ice please understand that your kids will laugh at a character based on you dying in an action movie before the end of the decade. They’ll be in movies for really little kids. Like Phineas and Ferb shit. There will be an action figure of you with a detachable head
