*taps sign* Any individual member of the House can force a vote on impeachments and anything impeachment-related.

This studio awards-season email is really matching the current mood in a way I’m not sure they intended.

It depends on if the elf is a Republican or not

New Illustration: "We Beat 'Em Before..." Taken from a British WW2 poster, the original features a WW1 German soldier at the top. I just swapped it for the Nazi soldier it had at the bottom.

I did not see "literal hunger games" coming, and it feels like that's on me. they caught ME slipping.

Food prices are skyrocketing, so President Snow is launching the Hunger Games!

"It is absurd to me that you should pay for the experience you should already be getting. You've already paid!"

Movie you’ve watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (Wars nor Trek), LOTR, or Marvel, Disney Animated or Pixar.

In the cold moist earth we laid her, when the forest cast the leaf, And we wept that one so lovely should have a life so brief: Yet not unmeet it was that one, like that young friend of ours, So gentle and so beautiful, should perish with the flowers.

If the Supreme Court makes you mad keep in mind that within the last week Democratic senators have been voting for GOP judges to get on the federal bench

Elise Stefanik just humiliated Mike Johnson so hard his son’s phone got an alert

And that's why Amy keeps voting for Trump's nominees.

Bullfucking shit. The Hague for everyone who justifies this. These are human beings and you are murdering them.

The rare exception to Betteridge’s law:

Again, this is the cognitive test that Donald Trump thinks was very hard.

trump is the president in the sense that he holds the office but he very clearly isn't the president in the sense that he has basically relieved himself of its duties

Gang Initiate Forced To Peacefully Deescalate Conflict To Prove He Not A Cop theonion.com/gang-initiat...

the takeaway from the Zohran Trump meeting is that Trump is a gullible fool who will temporarily bend to the last charismatic person he talked to. Zohran played him perfectly but that doesn’t mean Trump is good now. He’ll go back to fascism tomorrow morning after he talks to Stephen Miller

Never forget that just a week ago, Ross Douthat and the NYTimes were asking if women ruined the workplace.

I’m familiar, by the way, with the argument that we just aren’t appreciating the NYT’s subtlety here; that it’s actually a searing indictment of this group of elites, just in a “show me, don’t tell me” kind of way. That take relies on ignoring that it’s in the New York Times. /1

Turns out the only thing dumber than the White House citing DoorDash on inflation is the White House citing DoorDash on inflation and getting it wrong.

America has long feared it would suffer the same fate as the Roman republic, but never quite truly appreciated how utterly absurd Roman elites had become by the time of the late republic.

Are they calling for Chuck Schumer to step down so we can get real leadership in the Senate? No? Then they are part of the problem.

Those 8 Dems took the hit for some larger group of Dems who wanted to cave. (This is clear from who did it -- not one is up in '26.) So, even if your Senators voted no, CALL THEM ANYWAY!!

Why would voters reward a political party with power when it refuses to wield it? That’s a question Democrats are going to have to answer if they surrender on this shutdown. Every day until the midterms

Yeah. When @schiff.senate.gov @padilla.senate.gov?

This is why I’m giving zero credit to the no voters and their pretty statements. If they really meant it we wouldn’t even be here. @schiff.senate.gov @padilla.senate.gov

The model of holding individual senators responsible is broken here. The retirees clearly agreed to take the fall. Which is why the nos should get no credit for voting no unless they move to oust Schumer

This. Don’t fall for theater

correction: they are all retiring, announced or not

Don't let it be lost how as soon as the Senators were personally inconvenienced by the shutdown (flight delays) they caved. There was never any "fight" it was "so long as this doesn't impact me personally..."

Wait till Axios finds out about how Jesus treated prostitutes.

Long time listener, first time caller, just out of curiosity, what happens when Senators continue to confirm a lawless President’s appointments? I’ll hang up and listen.

FIFA creating a "Peace Prize" to give Trump is so amazingly on brand for both FIFA and Trump that I can't even be mad.

"Hey, man, what message should we push today as we deliberately deny millions of Americans their food benefits?"

NGL I would totally ride a taxi camel

Since there's zero chance we'll see any headlines like this from a US-based outlet, sharing so you can know that at least someone knows what they're looking at. Not a gift link because the headline makes my point.

GOP: Caring about the problems of citizens is a commie plot.

Point of fact: we don’t know the sandwich had mustard and onions. We just know the agent testified he smelled mustard and onions. This may seem like a minor difference to you, but the guy is almost certainly lying.

Pain is their primary policy.

Not now, widening gyre

"Mr. Mamdani, why did you knowingly lie to your young relative by tricking them into believing that you had amputated their nose when it was in fact your own thumb between your fingers? EXPLAIN THAT."

Also I cannot wait for these people to grill Sliwa on why he lied when he said one of his cats was a "tiny kitty baby" when the cat is actually a full grown adult.
