Really wish more people would think like Holly does here. And the photos made me want a Jacob Soboroff Tiny Desk concert.

The Constitution clearly gives Congress the power to spend taxpayer funds, and no law allows the president to halt if he feels some US states aren’t being “good stewards” of the money. In case there’s any confusion on this, the Impoundment Control Act forbids it. Taxation without representation.

Well done!

Thinking that it’s 2026 and Kalshi and Polymarket are both leaving money on the table by not taking bets on whether Trump audibly shits himself during the SOTU. It’s 2026 and we deserve to see that line jump around every time he puts in a weird pause.

Love this so much!

I also can't imagine winning a gold medal and then have the celebration involving a dork like Kash Patel giddily spraying me with beer and champagne. I'll take the US women putting Free Bird on heavy rotation any time they want to remember the moment, thanks.

We did it, people!

My least favorite type of reply guy is “Well, what did you expect?” I expected BETTER, Brian, you surrendering bag of Beige, you are not the spokesperson for Accepting Less

Guessing that most of these places were built to hold a lot of shipments with maybe 100-200 warehouse workers somewhere near a major highway and aren’t designed at all for the water/power/sewer capacity to house thousands of people.

Who would have ever guessed that the guy with his own K$H merch and clothing line would turn out to be a total tool?

This is amazing and I'm so glad he's using drones for capturing close-up views of these majestic creatures!

Local zoning is the way! A lot of these are being stopped or stalled by neighborhood organizing. These warehouses often need to be purchased, permitted, approved for occupancy and specs. Each one of those steps can be interrupted. Ppl are pressuring corps not to sell, counties to deny permits, etc

Hey everyone, tomorrow is going to obviously be a snow day, so we’re going to call it nice and early so people can enjoy an impromptu three day weekend.

Looks like there's going to be a huge-ass hole in the budget that should be filled by clawing back the entire ICE funding including what was in OBBA.

Beyond going to a good cause, the Girl Scout Cookies (especially the Samoas/Caramel Delites and thin mints) are objectively better product.

“That’s right, take the picture. Take the picture, take the picture, take the goddam picture. Take my soul too while you’re at it.” Carol needed a cigarette. “I give and I give and what’s left of me at the end of the night isn’t worth the nylon fibers of a bargain basement chew toy.”

Just looking at all the instances where presidents have invoked the National Emergencies Act and they generally fall into two categories: - Stuff that Congress would have passed and the president would have signed. - Binding kvetches and utter bullshit. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...

Someone give her a director's chair and a budget. I'm not asking, I'm BEGGING. This is insanely creative to come up with this with just stuff she had around.

Glad to see an administration lawyer finally held in contempt and hoping that the dam bursts and more judges start holding attorneys in contempt. It’s gotten ridiculous.

Good morning friend I am a British Prince in a bit of a pickle, could you please wire me your personal bank account information have a blessed day

Watching other countries actually make their leaders and powerful men face consequences with jealousy.

Still one of my favourite tweets:

Man, what a run. I'm old enough to remember his first run for president in 1984 when he was seen as kind of a novelty or protest candidate and then again in 1988 when he ran a solid campaign with enough support to give Dukakis a serious challenge. Rest in power.

The "Yeaah Booyyyy" when he first starts really getting moving is glorious!

The previous administration was run by beta cuck soy boys who were too soft to carry out their duties. Here’s why I fired a Coast Guard pilot for forgetting my blankie. by Kristi Noem

Yes it’s Valentine’s Day. But it’s also the chosen birthday of Frederick Douglass who was born in 1818 on a plantation in Talbot County, Maryland. He escaped from slavery & rose to become the most eloquent and forceful voice for the abolition of slavery & for Black voting rights in the U.S.

Congrats to the administration for getting 99 Luftballoons stuck in my head 43 years later, I guess.

BREAKING: Kid Rock’s performance on Super Bowl Sunday has earned a FIFA Grammy

Just thinking that the last two Super Bowl Halftime Shows have been artists using their music for long-form storytelling and if that becomes a thing, I'm completely here for it. Loved Kendrick's last year, loved Bad Bunny's love letter to Puerto Rico this year.

New Beverly Hillbillies reboot is gonna be LIT.

The cartoon that appeared this week on the front page of France’s most influential national newspaper, Le Monde Brilliant work by the cartoonist, Guffo.

We spent last weekend walking down Devon, connecting with neighbors and listening to what they care about. More interviews coming soon!

I'm sorry the guy changing the rules on the fly is named what

I love this so much.

I just love how quick his sense of humor is -- and it's also really gentle. Also noting how natural and comfortable he is around the kids, especially for someone who isn't a dad.

1. This is amazing, especially prescient now and McKellen is amazing. 2. I don't know if McKellen suggested the monologue or if Colbert had it filed away somewhere, but either way, I can't imagine this happening on, say, a Jimmy Fallon show and we're losing a lot when Colbert goes off the air.

Timeline cleanse! And is it wrong that "if you've got time to lean, you've got time to clean" jumped into my head when I saw this?

Beyond being way understaffed, prison healthcare always being substandard and overly crowded cells, I'm also wondering if they're dealing with a lot of people who got injured by ICE/CBP who should have gone to hospitals but were herded off to detention centers with serious medical issues.

Not for nothing, but if you're going to have a team of 18 guys and whatever support staff they used for this all getting paid overtime, it doesn't seem to be too much of an administrative burden to run the plan by a judge and get a warrant.

It never ceases to amaze me what kind of stuff a few dedicated, principled journalists can dig into and uncover. Unraveled did an amazing job when CBP ramped up in Chicago and now they're doing an outstanding job in Minneapolis.

I'm glad Daniel put this thread together. A ton of DOJ attorneys in Minnesota have quit because they found what they're being asked to do reprehensible. Someone who volunteers to jump into the ICE caseload at this point is trying to get noticed, not make the world a better place...

Today in Minneapolis: citizens offer Homan his required $50,000 in a CAVA bag

Beyond all of this, imagine what criteria they're using to lay people off when they decide they don't need their correspondent in Kyiv.

I love seeing the "goatfucker" analogy pushed to its logical conclusion like this.

Love that they're doing this and excellent choice for the first guest!

The 19 Buddhist monks carrying a message of peace made it to Richmond on Monday, the 100th day of their walk from Texas to D.C. The mayor’s office estimated 10,000 people lined the route through the city. https://wapo.st/3NUrWaj

Granted, this isn't the most pressing concern right now, but I'm glad there are still Senators pushing back on the antitrust stuff. That said, I'm hoping that this doesn't turn into something where Republicans push back because it's Netflix and then turn around and greenlight a merger with Columbia
