Retired in 2020 after 45 years in sports journalism. I hate the GOP and Tangerine Palpatine with the heat of 1,000 suns. Still not famous enough for a Wikipedia page.

If the Attorney General is yelling at Congress members during an oversight committee, screaming that the President is the greatest ever and everyone owes him an apology, when the Justice Department is supposed to be an independent entity, maybe she should be immediately dismissed.

This is the second straight Super Bowl where the losing team's five offensive linemen couldn't block the opposing team's four defensive linemen. An offense that can't do that is going to have a difficult time scoring.
Watching this Patriots' offensive line, and I'm sorry, it's why I will never be a full-convert into "sacks are a QB stat."

It's an administration full of liars and cheaters.
A Reuters photographer captured this image of a page from Pam Bondi's "burn book," which she used to counter any questions from Democratic lawmakers during an unhinged hearing today.
It looks like the DOJ monitored members of Congress’s searches of the unredacted Epstein files.
Just wow.

Didn’t LeBron rip the team for not having a “championship mentality” after losing at OKC? And then he and two other starters sit out in a surrender mentality at San Antonio tonight?
JUST IN: #Lakers will be without Luka Doncic, LeBron James, Austin Reaves and Marcus Smart tonight against the Spurs in the second of a back-to-back.

Well, they ARE serious about being hypocrites.
Gun Owners of America is lobbying Congress to pass the SAVE Act, which would require a majority of Americans to show a passport to register to vote.
But GOA opposes any law that requires showing a drivers license to buy a gun.
These are not serious people.

VAN HOLLEN: Why do the Epstein files show you coordinating a meeting and planning a visit with Jeffrey Epstein on his private island in December 2012?
LUTNICK: I barely had anything to do with that person, okay?

I'm hardly the first person to note this, but it's enormously instructive that our President and his followers saw the message "THE ONLY THING MORE POWERFUL THAN HATE IS LOVE" and understood it, correctly, as an attack on them

Yeah. Like pepper spray in the face.
People should be required to experience ICE's illegal brutalities before being able to claim that they support ICE and their methods.

WTF?
About 300 journalists being "eliminated" (WaPo's words) and destroying one of the nation's best newspapers is what I would call "callous."

Well, he hasn't played golf in 21 days. That might be a record for either of his terms.
A lot of people are saying that Trump is dying.
I don't care for that bullshit.
Call me when he's dead, or preferably impeached (or jailed).
