“An interview is not a power struggle—unless you make it one. But Trump, having failed to ruffle Welker, somehow had to put her in her place. Thus he reached into his prodigious catalog of belittlement. Look what you made me do, darling, he said to the journalist who was doing her job.”

WHITESIDES: The truth is the cheapest form of energy on a per unit basis is daytime solar. Is that not true? CHRIS WRIGHT: It depends-- WHITESIDES: No it doesn't depend! It's true. You are amazingly misleading the American public. WRIGHT: It depends-- WHITESIDES: No!

The fundamental, guiding principle of the right-wing political party in this country, however it existed at that point in time, is they only want white people to vote. Every political theory and opinion about how voting "should be run" stems from that ultimate conclusion. That is what they want.

Nancy Mace got 12%. Statistically, more South Carolinians believe in Bigfoot than wanted her as governor.

This is a thoughtful essay. I do it a disservice by offering this crude summary… Christianity should be confident, serene, and accepting of doubt, not fearful, loud, and full of misplaced confidence. If you have the time and inclination, then please read it. (Note: I am no longer a believer.)

The fact that Lindsey Graham is known amongst the DC escort community as, "Lady G," is by far the coolest thing about him.

Aliens really are overestimating how attached we are to the management here.

Maybe don't park your giant suv in the only curb cut crosswalk at an elementary school's main door. And then don't get upset when people on bikes ask you to move. I said excuse me and you got all in my arms that you wanted to yell in front of children. Fuck you, move your clueless ass.

I’ve struggled with panic attacks, depression, and agoraphobia for decades. I have published over 20 novels with different publishers and made friends around the world. This is just to say: you can still do great things with mental illness. I believe in you. ♥️

Putin refuses a ceasefire. Zelenskyy agrees to it. Putin refuses a direct meeting. Zelenskyy agrees to it. Putin continues to attack Ukrainian civilians. Zelenskyy retaliates on strategic and military targets. Politicians calling for "both sides" to "negotiate" serve russia.

The unity ticket we want is here Marianne Williamson/Stephen Pratt 2028

According to trump, the game was rigged and the Knicks won.

I de-risked my portfolio when Trump was elected but not even a conservative financial planner can save me from Trump.

Trump LIED???

They waited for the market to close.

Can you imagine how his children think about him?

“Hegseth directly intervened to block or delay the promotions of more than a dozen Black and female senior officers; he dismissed or pushed out several high-ranking Black and female officers; [and] presided over the restoration of tributes to Confederate soldiers, traitors to the United States…”

“Trump… has shown little discipline or consistency and no regard for what the experts tell him. He bolts into situations unprepared and flips them into fiascos... He compiles teams of unqualified sycophants again and again... His social-media tantrums result in real-world consequences.”

What kind of financial system do we have anyway when I can crash the stock market just by opening the stocks app on my phone?

I understand why Millennials and Gen-Z are so pissed about housing costs. My house is bought and paid for, but if I wanted to buy the identical house that the developer built across the street, I wouldn't be able to afford the mortgage and down payments. Millennials and Gen-Z people are screwed.

Me reading Hunter’s replies.

Next time you're fighting with someone on social media it helps if you type your responses using only your middle fingers.

If Democrats rig elections, how did Trump become president twice?

Mike Lee thinks whipped cream is a spice.

Trump and Epstein were so close their friendship needed a black bar over it.

Someone in Alabama is spending their last month with a full set of fingers. 🧨

My idea of CrossFit is crossing my fingers and hoping it still fits.

The steak was advertised as edible, not digestible.

Stephen Miller looks like someone wished on a monkey's paw for a young vampire accountant.

The White House octagon sounds like something a screenwriter cuts for being too unrealistic.

From today’s The Bulwark: The Blanche confirmation fight… can be turned into a referendum on the [Epstein] coverup by the Trump administration, and by the entire political class, of Epstein and his co-conspirators and clients. The vote on Blanche can become, it should become, a vote on Epstein.

Promising new treatment for pancreatic cancer doubles survival rates

This memory still breaks me... Coming home from the vet with a collar instead of my dog. 💔🐾

Maybe it's not *ideal* to have someone with so much anger and so little self-control responsible for deciding if the US should start a nuclear war.

Trump's foreign policy amounts to Netanyahu holding the steering wheel while he honks.

Mormons: "We believe in Jesus Christ." Evangelicals: "That's not the part we're talking about."

The Middle East peace process has reached the “dad yelling at kids from another room” phase.

I’m making fondant potatoes but only had snowman molds so I'm telling everyone it's a new dish called "Pommes de Frosty."

Fragile man-baby throws a tantrum…

Trump is going to the Knicks game 3 and Mariska Hargitay is too. Wouldn’t it be amazing to see him get arrested by Captain Benson?

Just finished Rise & Fall of the Dinosaurs. 👍🏼

Follow me back Barack!!
