That's because those Republicans are still so angry that Obama spent $1.7 trillion of their tax dollars to build a blackety black black basketball court and to paint the entire White House black, just like George Clinton told him to do.

New MAGA WaPo coming down hard on those irresponsible Democrats and their costly Obamacare subsidies

This will be a thing! Next Wednesday, Oct 22. Title: "Is There a Higher Education Crisis?" Answer: oh hell yes

Following yesterday's spectacular success in his "grooming and violence" seminar, Secretary of Warcraft Hegseth plans a followup lecture to the brass. Part 1 will address communications security during military operations. Part 2 will be an extra manly demonstration of ax-throwing. tiny.cc/51bt001

Though to be serious for a moment it really was kind of genius of Hegseth to summon a thousand admirals and generals to come to Quantico so that he could lecture them in person on grooming standards and blame them for losing wars

A nice review from ALH! And what a surprise to hear good news about something these days.

Pete Hegseth orders all US military personnel to look exactly like Pete Hegseth Promises to transform the troops "from woke to bloke"

Remember, according to the Supreme Court it's not bribery unless the money comes in an envelope marked "bribe," and for Ilya Shapiro it's not government suppression of speech unless there are actual government fingerprints on the suppression-of-speech memorandum

I am so old that I remember @jesseltaylor.bsky.social and Ezra from the early blogosphere days of Pandagon and let's just say that one of these guys turned out all right

This might be a good time to reflect on the fact that one reason the MAGA right hates liberals and progressives-- I mean, really really hates, with the blazing fire of a thousand AR-15s-- is that we think American gun culture is profoundly warped and very very dangerous. Dangerous to everyone.

Followup: Brian Kilmeade acknowledges possible "unsanitary" consequences to mass killings of mentally unstable homeless people, proposes that they prepare mass graves for themselves before their elimination. Anyone who criticizes him will be deported. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Brian Kilmeade is a hero of free speech whose statue should be in the Capitol rotunda

Trump Administration announces new initiative, Willowbrook II: Willowbrook With a Vengeance tiny.cc/vs9q001

New deluxe streaming service TrumpTV will televise Everglades Immigrant Internment Camp inmates being eaten by alligators beginning August 1. $49/month, bitcoin preferred.

I keep returning to the fact that these are the atrocities MAGA world absolutely *loves*

Sending proleptic thoughts and prayers to the families of all the children in Texas who will be killed by their state government's lurid gun fetish www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2025/...

Trump furious with Netanyahu, says "he promised me this would be just the tip of the spear"

I'm on the fence about Andrew Cuomo until he earns Anthony Weiner's endorsement

Trump planning dramatic landing on USS Abraham Lincoln later this week, piloting his gold-plated Qatari Boeing 747-8

Pretty sure Obama called this one 14 years ago

Not content with desecrating the Oval Office with his tacky, gold spray-painted bric-a-brac, Donald is now paving over the Rose Garden to turn it into a Mar-a-Lago-style patio. Wherever Trump goes, he leaves behind a trail of vulgarity.

Juneteenth is a day of mourning for the White House. Next year they hope to replace it with Make America a Slave State Again, or MASSA.

While this is true, I have a different take. Eventually we'll learn that Elon Musk : Donald Trump :: Andy Kaufman : Jerry Lawler.

And Stephen Miller will order the funds redirected to refugee Afrikaners

I am just not getting over the fact that the political party in which people made fun of Vince Foster's suicide and called Chelsea Clinton the White House dog has become such a sewer of cruelty

Musk: "I have failed. The deep state resistance in DC was too great for me to overcome. I am going back to my humble techbro origins as a beneficiary of billions of dollars in federal handouts. I tried to kill six million or so, and only managed 300,000. I am sorry I could not realize my vision."

And Republicans are here to help you die faster! It's what you voted for, folks. :)

Yep, mission accomplished.

"Habeas corpus" literally means "you have the body." It allows people who shoot their dogs to dispose of the dog's body in whatever manner they see fit.

To be fair, there was no way of knowing ahead of time that a "university" founded by Joe Lonsdale, Bari Weiss and Niall Ferguson would turn out to be a right-wing grift machine

Of all the things that are wrong in today's society today, definitely the wildest is that Smokey Robinson took over the Motown/ soul Sirius XM station and made it *worse.*

It really is odd that no one uses the term "groceries" anymore

So, basically a win-win-win-win-win-win-win-win-win-win-win-win-win-win-win, which is precisely why wingnuts hate it

Mission accomplished! Now all those grounded planes can be replaced by Qatar gift planes

I am betting that this poor addled old man didn't even remember that he'd endorsed a cease-fire 24 hours earlier tiny.cc/8zjj001

The real problem with the Library of Congress was its drag queen story hour, and yes I totally expect this profoundly stupid and vicious administration to say this in the next 24 hours

Rubio creates a new political position: anti-anti-Nazi. The key is Germany saying "we have learned from our history." Here in the US Republicans say "glorfle schnock whizz lalalalala we hate teachers because they told us to pay attention and stop hitting people."

This is terrible because it's so going to distract RFK Jr from finding the cure to autism

Ah, David Horowitz, may he rest in piss. And he leaves us his protégé, the ghoul Stephen Miller. That will be his legacy.

35 years later, it is just gobsmacking that American conservatives in the "political correctness" bullshit pretended to care about Western literary and philosophical traditions. And that journalists believed them.

I guess it would be really radical and crazy to suggest that this agency be abolished

But such a generous gift to Carney and the Liberal Party

So we're in the "arresting judges" phase of fascism, OK

Breaking: over the weekend, Trump will replace Jerome Powell with Greg Gutfeld

Surely they were confusing him with Andrew Tate, another guy the US has no power to put on a plane

Can someone who knows how to do such things please forward this clip to The Hague? Thanks! tiny.cc/hoog001

Yeah, I am so there

We interrupt the atrocities to inform you that there is, in fact, an audiobook of "It's Not Free Speech" and that Johns Hopkins UP is offering it for 50% off thru May 11. Only ten bucks! Practically free speech after all! Now you know what to take to the beach with you this summer! tiny.cc/qjng001
