Air Force One now has a bumper sticker on the tail fin that says "My Second Grader is a FIFA Peace Prize Winner!"

On the subject of Rep. Henry Cuellar: Now that the schadenfreude of Geriatric Joffrey’s unsuccessful attempt at bribing him with a pardon has run its course, it is time to primary Cuellar’s corrupt a$$ and run a Democrat for that seat who is not taking bribes and engaging in money laundering.

If Kristi Noem gets axed from the Regime because she is having an affair with Corey Lewandowski the cognitive dissonance of celebrating the removal of that hideous sadist while simultaneously trying to avoid thinking about that Predator-Meets-Alien tryst is going to be a trial. But I'll take it.

Let me see whether I can help Jake Tapper out — Picture 1: A President of the United States listening attentively in a meeting where he is in command. Picture 2: Not that.

The nominal occupants of the U.S. presidency and vice presidency. This racist filth is what Republicans in Congress are defending and enabling every day. It is equal parts nauseating and pathetic.

The Regime's current version of events (as of today) is that Adm. Bradley committed this textbook war crime on his own with no direct command and no give-no-quarter order from Hegseth. When Bradley knew the whole operation was being recorded on video and Hegseth was watching. And that

I am glad to see that Senator Roger Wicker (R.-Miss.) and Senator Jack Reed (D.-R.I.), the Chair and Ranking Member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, have opened an investigation into the reports of Pete Hegseth's criminal give-no-quarter order.

Concerning the clip making the rounds of Katie Miller arguing with Bakari Sellers about the Regime's give-no-quarter murder of alleged drug traffickers on the high seas: Why is CNN putting the wife of someone who may bear accessory criminal liability for these events on a discussion panel?

The headline is not just that Pete Hegseth issued a plainly unlawful order to intentionally slaughter survivors after an initial strike. It is also that senior military officers improperly carried out those orders.

Leaving aside the legal and constitutional arguments, important as those are, imagine how career military feel when they hear these thugs say: "You can serve honorably, even heroically; you can put in your twenty; you can embrace public service after you return to civilian life; but if you ever

Please add "anything RFK Jr. has ever said or written" to the list of materials I would like excluded entirely from my life, environment and awareness.

The Regime is demanding lists of Jews at the institution where I work.

On MTG’s announcement: Good. Let’s stop thinking or talking about her as soon as she is no longer a public official.

Speaker Mike Johnson has officially become Fredo in the wannabe-mobster world of this Regime. makeagif.com/gif/fredo-co...

When I look at Geriatric Joffrey obsessing about "renovation" projects at the White House I see someone in serious cognitive decline trying desperately to ground himself in familiar situations. I doubt he has ever genuinely managed a construction project in his life—he spent his misbegotten 1/2

If your reaction to the stunning political developments of the last few days surrounding the Epstein materials is to say "T***p and his cronies are just going to scrub the files of anything incriminating so nothing will come of this, it doesn't matter, nothing matters with these people" then

Bravissima to the extraordinary Florence Onyiuke who has been selected as a Rhodes Scholar from the University of Pennsylvania! penntoday.upenn.edu/news/penn-fo...

I am very glad to have been proven right on this Kim Davis business. I worry a great deal about what the radical majority on this Court will do with marriage equality but Davis's misbegotten mess of a case was never going to be the vehicle.

Think about what mainstream media would be doing if Democrats controlled the White House and both Houses of Congress and 10% of all airspace in the U.S. concentrated over 40 of the busiest airports were getting closed down tomorrow because of a politically dysfunctional government shutdown.

Populist Dems won. Moderate Dems won. We won in blue states. We won in purple states. Maybe the take is that (a) people think Trump is out of control; and (b) people like Dems when we're taking a stand and fighting for what we believe in - as we have been for the last month.

He is terrified and desperate. Let’s make him even more so. Get out and vote!

Showed up to vote in Philly first thing this morning. I’m seventh in line. 💪

One of the many reasons it would be fantastic for Democrats to sweep tomorrow's elections decisively is that it will strengthen their hand in forcing a resolution of the GOP shutdown that will preserve access to affordable health care. Get out and vote tomorrow if you have not voted already!

When I hear the name Bill Ackman my mind always goes here first. Beloved NYC'ers make sure to vote early and tell billionaires they do not get to dictate the outcomes of our elections.

Geriatric Joffrey's nonsense about running for a third term is evidence of his advancing dementia and fraying connection with reality and should be reported as such.

There is both hope and horror in this but I will take the hope. h/t @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social

"Douthat" is the insult a juvenile wag would select if he were trying to taunt a person like Ross Douthat.

But really, best of luck with the book.

The fight over the gerrymandering of U.S. congressional districts has quickly become one of the key battlegrounds in the fight for democracy and the rule of law. As Democrats marshal their resolve to defeat this Republican scheme to corrupt our system,

I think it is fair to say that destroying things is one of the main sources of pleasure in Geriatric Joffrey's life.

Zohran Mamdani is reducing crime in New York City before even taking office.

Circulating that video of himself defecating on the United States and the American people is the closest Donald Trump has ever come to telling the truth in his entire misbegotten life.

Pulitzer Prize winning historian Benjamin Nathans of the University of Pennsylvania provides a defining piece of iconic imagery in making the case for universities to stand together and repudiate the subservience the Regime is seeking to impose.

I doubt T***p and Hegseth could have done more to strengthen the resolve of U.S. senior military leadership to obey their oaths to the Constitution in the face of whatever pressure they receive from the Regime than they unwittingly accomplished with this juvenile and offensive spectacle today.

The reporting on the horror unfolding in Michigan gets progressively worse. To my Mormon friends and community members: I stand with you in grief, outrage and resolve.

Oregon Governor Tina Kotek:

I am so goddamned sick of having to think about these people.

This is quite literally insane.

He inadvertently published a command to the Attorney General to prosecute his enemies regardless of the evidence and decompensated for an hour before the U.N. General Assembly. Networks and newspapers should be running stories 24/7 on his manifest lack of moral and mental fitness for office.

I watched about 30 seconds of Confused Oompa Loompa yelling at the assembled diplomats of the United Nations while clearly under the delusion that he was sitting on a stool at the corner bar ranting about "those damned hippies" and that is quite enough thank you.

Keeping my feet planted firmly on the ground today.

“Ever teachers” flayed me when I read it this week.

One thing I take away from the last few days: This Regime is empty. There is no foundation, no core, no center that can hold, no stability, no creed or code. I understood all this before but the latest round of desperate, ugly, crass performance has given that dreadful truth new sharpness. 1/2
