Let's face it. A corrupt organization awarding Donald Trump a peace prize is funny. Journalists are human beings. Their contracts do not prohibit laughter.

This is pretty cool. If I were 30 years younger, I'd love to try it. This short does not appear to be AI-generated, though I'm sure there are those who know more about AI who would be willing to correct me.

Happy Thanksgiving to my good friends in the north country. You have much to be thankful for. We do too here in the states, though sometimes it's hard to see through all the hate and division. Peace!

Yankees fans beware. You are the butt of jokes again. This is what happens when your best players don't perform in the play-offs. A-Rod and Jeter are trying to laugh it off but this has got to hurt.

LOL. As if the president could order the demolition of any building outside federal jurisdiction. So many people think Trump is an aspiring dictator. Evidently Loomer believes he already is one.

Laura Loomer thinks it was a text message to Bondi that Trump accidentally posted on Truth Social. If true, it's a perfect metaphor that captures the incompetence of his administration.

And predictably, MAGA thought leaders don't give a rat's ass about it.

In a normal world, this would be impeachable. Even Richard Nixon had the good sense to manipulate his Justice Department and FBI mostly behind closed doors.

Once again, British humor raises its cheeky head. I don't know if it's AI, but the masks and signs functioning as captions are rapier-like. Behold the drollery!

And of course we know capitalist governments never commit "atrocities." I would say blasting out of the water a cigarette boat containing drug-trafficking suspects, all without warning or due process, is an atrocity.

Such a preposterous number. The entire U.S. GDP in the last quarter was only slightly more than $30 trillion. Such blatant lies and totally without shame.

I think it's great that MAGA is applauding a gay man. We are making progress after all.

We in CT are used to taking it on the chin. Compared to the rest of New England, we lack a real identity of our own. Pizza? Really? The gifted and funny Billy Baker of the Boston Globe suggests we secede from New England. mailchi.mp/globe.com/st...

If any moment in the history of the Democratic Party was a plaintive cry for new leadership, here it is. Absolutely cringeworthy.

21 degrees above normal. This would pass for a flawless summer day in New England. It's the day before New Year's Eve and not a cloud in the sky. The pool is still open here at the complex. Should I dip my toes in?

The level of media literacy in this country is shocking. Evidently no one has heard of the Associated Press. One commenter asked: "Has anyone figured out who or what organization sends these 'talking points' out to media outlets? Like who/what is the originator of these headlines/phrases?"

Always amazed me how Rockford was able to station that portable shack on a public beach parking lot and just set up shop. No plumbing or electrical lines to be seen: "$200 a day plus expenses."
