I've got a story in next month's MAD ABOUT DC! This was such a fun project, and a ton of thanks should go to Chip Zdarsky and Marie Javins. This book was a true labor of love, and you will not want to miss it. Pre-orders end TODAY, so tell your store to get you your copies as soon as you can!

Talarico is one of the few openly Christian politicians in the United States who acts like a Christian, and by acting like a Christian he reveals a profound contrast with so many members of the MAGA Christian movement that’s dominated American political life for 10 years.

Reminder that a president can't just "announce" a permanent new DHS secretary by fiat; Mullin still has to get confirmed by the Senate. He needs 50 senators to support him (and there's a very good chance he'll get that).

Honestly, if the DGA, WGA, and SAG-AFTRA don't sue to block the Paramount/WBD merger, then they should just disband. Unlike the cosplay picket lines of 2023, this could actually do something to save jobs.

Wow. I mean, good on Ted for knowing when to walk away. Unfortunately, Netflix getting WB was the second worst option. The worst option is Paramount actually winning. The best is WB splitting the studio from the cable assets.
