THE HATERS SAID THE PATRIOTS COULDN'T DO IT. AND THEY WERE CORRECT. HONESTLY GREAT CALL FROM THE HATERS

Not sure why Bad Bunny borrowed the big suit from David Byrne, but on him, it almost fits...

They called the Real Madrid soccer team logo a Tren de Aragua gang sign. Why not this?

Uh... has anybody seen The Yes Men lately? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Yes...

If Schumer wants this to be his job, he should resign as senator and go work as a lobbyist for AIPAC

All visas are a bridge to citizenship? What? Many work visas (notoriously including the H1B) aren't even a bridge to permanent residency! Tourist visas aren't a bridge to *anything*! What?!?!?!

"Recently we saw soldiers gathered around a man they held prostrate. They beat him first. If Christ appears to us in this moment, he is not among the executioners."

If you want to see clumsily constructed fakery, you could go see "Melania". But if you want to see clumsily constructed fakery for free, you can instead read the Rotten Tomatoes audience reviews. "Great glimpse into FLOTUS!" "What a gracious woman." Thanks. I'm sure you all paid for your tickets.

Jeffrey Epstein sent a link to the white nationalist podcast The Right Stuff, whose core hosts played an active role in the 2017 “Unite the Right” rally. He did so in February 2016. Before TRS made national news, really. Genuinely bizarre.

So, the first review is in for the Melania movie, from Australia. (I guess they can't keep critics out of public showings.) But it leaves me confused. If the film's subject comes off in the movie itself as a "chilly, lifeless socialite wannabe", is the film itself still being "willfully deceitful"?

ICE are alllll over Harlem right now, 116 & Frederick Douglass, checking IDs and targeting the area’s African community. Multiple people have been detained. Community members are advising folks to carry citizenship documents - or stay away if they are at risk

With all due respect to the NFL veteran here, the whole problem in the Senate is that Chuck Schumer sees Republican Senators as colleagues, not opponents...

I'm sorry, Bovino is retiring to a city with an 87% Hispanic population? That's like finding out Heinrich Müller spent his final years in Scarsdale.

So, ummm.... of all the many, many people that Kanye has to apologize to (starting with "the black community", to which some of this is explicitly addressed), how many read the Wall Street Journal?

I understand some folks think that Hitler's malign craftiness has been way oversold -- but even he knew when his squad of street toughs (the SA, under Ernst Rohm) had become a liability. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Night_o...

As angry as we might be at Democratic leaders, we are still not angry enough.

Gotcha—let’s dig into that step by step. 1. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗻𝗼 𝗺𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗵, because I turned you into an amorphous lump of flesh. You’re not just immobile—you’re immortal, and you feel only anguish. 2. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺. That makes total sense—it’s a natural human impulse, and you’ve been through a lot.

You've probably wondered, "is there some recipe book out there that is turning every elected Democratic into a bland, hollow nonentity?" Yes. There is a recipe book. @msifry.bsky.social breaks it down.

Cautionary note for those planning celebrations of when it happens. (Not clear they'll succeed in this, but they'll absolutely try it.)

Your move, VP Vance.

Beijing watching a completely mentally unstable U.S. President reorient all U.S. foreign policy to coerce Brussels:

Nice idea... unfortunately, Starmer's the one still so fixated on the idea of appeasing Trump that he won't brook talk about cancelling King Charles's upcoming state visit.

So, uh... @jaketapper.bsky.social ... is it important for news organizations to cover the *current* President's mental deterioration, or are you still not done with Biden yet?

Merrick Garland sitting in his living room someplace, consoling himself with the thought that when _he_ was in office, _he_ bent over backwards to preserve and reinforce legal norms.

Ah. Since you're not conducting an investigation, you have no use for relevant evidence, and there will be no reason not to turn over all evidence you're holding to the state for theirs, yes?

This video describes arrests for protesting -- which, depending on when this was recorded, were likely in violation of the recent court order (as well as, duh, the Constitution)...

From a Minnesotan: a hearty HELL NO to this. This man is a professional political consultant in DC raising $$ for a political party. There are endless better places to donate to actually help people here suffering and fighting against this nazi invasion. Here’s a start: www.standwithminnesota.com

i’m a little confused about how “abolish ICE” requires too much explaining to be good politics, but a set of opaque incremental reforms does not.

I'm guessing that when he learns that the Nobel Prize committee itself refuses to list him as a recipient or holder of the award, his reaction will be a little bit different...

Just got this forwarded. Here are the talking points Schumer's team just emailed out to their allies TODAY - this afternoon. The words "Minnesota" or "ICE" don't appear anywhere here.

Why do I feel that mealy-mouthed "follow the polls" Democratic leaders will somehow find a reason not to in this *particular* instance?

The transcript is finally out. Trump’s answers are mostly incoherent and full of lies. And rather than confront him on his lies on behalf of the American people, the NYT reporters just keep asking for more. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/01/11/us/politics/trump-interview-transcript.html

New AI psychosis just dropped...

I guess we’re about to see if the Republicans would rather go to war with Europe than stand up to Donald Trump.

Now, about "Dubai Chocolate"...

They bet the media would adopt their framing if they released the video and they were right USA Today: “Vance uses new video to defend agent” WP: “hotly disputed” Reuters: “White House shares new video” The NYT even embedded DHS spokeswoman Tricia McLaughlin as if she’s a credible source

Jeffries: "We'll figure out the accountability mechanisms at the appropriate time." Which is ... when, dingus?

Not that astonishingly prescient Boston Globe trump-term mockup. Not the Onion.

The old saw goes, "Never attribute to malice what is reasonably explained by incompetence." Is this reasonably explained by incompetence?

The Democratic leadership of this country would walk out of the Wannsee Conference saying “I’m concerned this isn’t focused enough on the economy”

This is true. It also means they don't know who wound up winning the war which that Athenian delegation was in the middle of. (Hint: not Athens.)

Chuck Schumer rejecting out of hand the one point of leverage he has, the one that was actually working really well last year until he caved, is the most Chuck Schumer he can be. spectrumlocalnews.com/mo/st-louis/...

As *everyone* in Venezuela starts treating Trump like the kid in that Twilight Zone episode, lest they all be sent to the cornfield, or worse...

What do you mean, "we", Chuckles? Do you think you can control Trump's focus? Are you proposing to just ignore it?

For those of us not in the cult, this is what we hear when anyone from the Trump administration speaks. For the people in the back, this is satire and so well done…
