Did not know it was the Republican Bible Study Wives’ Group..

Outstanding explanation of the consequences of putting cowards and/ or idiots in positions overseeing investigative reporting

Oh I’m having a great time

Might’ve just seen the save of the year in the premier league. Even better that Raya kept the shutout / clean sheet going

Is Jesus wearing a Jesus t-shirt about the other Jesus?

Odegaard’s baby must finally be sleeping through the night cause he’s back.

I feel like Zohran and Mikel Merino look similar enough that they could convincingly switch jobs, as long as no one has to do much public speaking or playing of soccer

I went to Texas to write about the sudden end of one of America's most successful experiments: the six decades of welcoming India's most educated and ambitious citizens. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/29/o...

To echo @daveweigel.bsky.social here, be wary of content creators who say “the mainstream media isn’t covering XYZ thing” when they themselves don’t read things.

We’re gonna miss our Dope On The Table mayor at some point

Also, news is less and less linear. All content is — look at engagement baiters ripping off stuff that worked for someone else three months previous. But influencers can discover a story they missed, ask why No One is Talking About It… politicians who already dealt w it aren’t ready to respond again

That Red Wings overtime winner is about as good as it gets

Just heard someone on the NHL Network use the term “heated rivals.” Regardless of how shitty the league itself will handle this, it’s a full blown phenomenon at this point

I got my ass beat because I’m an ally

Me trying to figure out this Arsenal formation and who the hell is playing left back

Well, okay

I can’t be the only one who finds it alarming how many variations of “chopped” and “XYZ face” Gen Alpha seems to come up with on a daily basis. We don’t need this many new terms to derogatorily describe someone’s appearance!!

It has been zero days since Trump posted about Epstein

Trump is back into full maitre d’ mode

A little more of a personal piece from me about how I’ve been feeling about the whole illegal firing / union busting situation at Condé Nast, and what I’m thinking when it comes to my next chapter. open.substack.com/pub/straight...

Watching Flyboys for my Ellison family dynasty story in September was borderline excruciating

100% this. The point isn’t the football but the afternoon out. When else are you bringing your gran to the football?

The Netflix and Amazon broadcasts are a great reminder that live sports is a deeply, deeply difficult type of TV that requires huge crews of profoundly skilled and experienced people who have worked together for a long time to look natural

Trump has started a late night flurry of Truth social posts right before Christmas officially begins on the east coast. Unclear if this will be mild or heavy precipitation.

I yearn for the simpler days of "at seven, it's marginal."

Not me stewing on Christmas Eve over how little coverage Trumpworld billionaire Jeffrey Yass got this year

This is giving me flashbacks to Joanna Coles taking over the Daily Beast (derogatory)

“It's like telling the whole room that you didn't fart,” one of the senior Trump administration officials says, referring in part to the Justice Department’s social media post. “Nobody's going to believe you.”

The Detroit v. Dallas color scheme on TNT is a real Christmas vibe on its own

The timing here has been something I’ve wondered about from the jump

Oh boy, Kevin Hassett has a CNBC appearance this hour. Those are always fun

Sharyn, welcome to the club of people who Katie Miller wants to get fired / is glad they got fired

Heated Rivalry truly has the juice. It’s a legitimately good show. Episode five is where they proved it.

Thread on the 60 Minutes segment that accidentally aired on the Global TV app in Canada, because of course

I think this Bari Weiss 60 Minutes situation is breaking containment. Slow Monday newsday + a beloved franchise and a subject that would clearly make the Trump administration look bad.

I love this stupid showwwwwwwwwww www.youtube.com/watch?v=vCxr...

Yikes. Maybe I should give Bari the number for Katie Miller and we’ll see how that goes

James Austin Johnson really just might have the best Trump impersonation of them all. Even more of an accomplishment now that we’re 10 years into this

Lara Trump is interviewing Mike The Situation on her Fox News show

Jumpscare (that’s Riley Gaines, to the untrained eye)

Ugh a had a redundant tweet about how terrible this Jesse Watters speech is at TPUSA, but trust me this thing has been an absolute mess

On Stefanik, I really can’t overstate how much potential normie Republicans and Upstate New York conservatives saw with her — before her MAGA makeover. Honestly, it’s a borderline textbook case for future history classes on this era. She paid a high price and got almost nothing in return

There are Friday news dumps, and then there’s whatever this horse shit is

Rough year for Stefanik…

This is truly wild

Does anyone else remember "executive time" and all of these stretches where Trump would lay pretty low in his first term? Decent chance we end up settling back into something like that for a little bit

New @sollenbergerrc.bsky.social joint on Cory Mills just dropped. open.substack.com/pub/sollenbe...

Is it possible that the Trump administration is going to run out of random cosmetic items to tinker with over the next 3 years? They’re already finding a way to do this stuff while technically breaking the law, so that’s impressive in its own way.

“But toward the end of his first year in office this term, just 36% of Americans approve of his handling of the economy, according to the latest NPR/PBS News/Marist poll. It's his worst mark in the six years that Marist has been asking the question.” — www.npr.org/2025/12/17/n...

That speech was the rhetorical equivalent of a defective Adderall pill
