I was too autistic to realize that my parents didn’t ACTUALLY mean “everyone” when they told me to treat “everyone” well.

One small way to try to re-establish social trust would be to transparently disclose *in this very column* that you hung out with Jeffrey Epstein. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/21/o...

Sick obsessed perverts are running the country.

Congrats to every idiot leftist asshole who stayed home and pouted and didnt vote because they didn't get their purity pony. Only liberals can be so fucking dumb and short sighted.

Anyways the GOP is not currently acting like all elections are over forever and it actually appears that they're crumbling under the pressure.

Reuters: Since Bondi took over, 21% of cases in DC have been dismissed because of cop and federal prosecutors’ incompetence and errors.

A President has no power to declare war, but Donald John Trump just did that by declaring blockade on Venezuela. In international law, such a declaration is equivalent to a declaration of war. If the GOP wants an escape, they could use that and impeach him before the weekend. As if.

The main thing I have had hammered home by the past ten years in politics is that we really need pretty much every government office to be run by boring and anonymous nerds who you will never once hear about in the news

I still can't believe they're trying to make a war happen out of thin air. Not just their abrogation of Congress's role in formally declaring a war -- that's been a slippery slope for decades -- but their total unwillingness even to go through the motions of drumming up public support.

incredible that the oldest scam in the book — “look away from the greed and poor leadership that destroy your chance to make a career, it is the [blanks] that stole your job!” — still works

For years, this dude has believed that stealth planes are literally invisible.

We need to release ALL the Epstein Files—including Treasury files about Epstein’s financial activities. The American people agree! I’ll keep fighting for full transparency and justice.

Walz: "'I don't know, do you really think limiting them to less than 100 bullets is going to do anything?' Yes! Yes it is. Yes it is going to save lives ... it's time to start reporting that that is all bullshit. It does do something. It does make a difference."

Seems like Trump and his groupies think starting a regime change war of conquest out of nowhere is a political masterstroke that will get them back on the front foot, but I don’t think that’s how it will play out.

I keep saying this but no one is connecting the dots. The war is to satisfy legal preconditions for mass removal *domestically* of Latinos (i.e., suddenly a lot of people are going to be “Venezuelan” for purposes of removal). This is 100% Stephen Miller…oil claim is to make grandpa go along

yeah...

As the curtains start to close and the lights begin to dim for Trump, something in his subconscious knows there will be feasting and dancing and merry-fucking-making when he breathes his last. This is Trump trying to get ahead of that and self-soothe the existential ache of his complete emptiness.

Just want to share with my American friends how the Australians respond to a shooting tragedy. Action, rather than thoughts and prayers.

We staffed the entire FBI with guys who only make memes and podcasts, hope that doesn't affect our ability to respond to major crimes

When we miss the Old Internet it's not just nostalgia, it's missing a time when online culture was driven by people who were really good at written communication rather than people who really liked to be on camera and hear themselves talk.

This man is a monster. He has no human empathy. He is an embarrassment to this country. People lost their jobs and are still being hounded because of much more banal comments about Charlie Kirk.

utterly incapable of grace

turns out you can actually have the right policy response to a crisis as long as you're not in the United States apnews.com/article/aust...

Once in a century political opportunity here, if only there were a party to claim it

Dr Russell D. Moore is a theologian, pastor, and the editor in chief of Christianity Today.

Frightening. Hegseth's cowboys will kill people. Pilot narrowly avoids ‘midair collision’ with US air force plane near Venezuela www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

I don't want to be a "I'm not surprised" guy but covid made it clear that a substantial part of the population wants the freedom to do whatever they want even if it kills them and/or others

There's people who I respect and care for that are really into James Bond, but the whole thing is just so divorced and 'I read playboy for the articles' coded. Absolutely absurd films in which physics, logic and taste have no place. At least the Fast and the Furious movies knew they were stupid.

As he celebrates his 100th Birthday this very day, can we all take a moment to acknowledge that time when Dick Van Dyke won the internet internet. Forever.

This should be the biggest story in the country right now. The sitting US President was extorting state lawmakers from his own party by threatening to withhold public money if they didn’t gerrymander for him. I don’t know how else to say it…

Gee wouldn't it be weird if we got into a pointless war every time a republican president was embattled and unpopular?

Just the very idea that Trump was a Russian asset and that the threat never taken seriously is beyond me.

"The administration genuinely seems to believe it can pull back from the world stage yet somehow still tell the rest of the world what to do. And it has a very firm idea of what it wants Europe to do, which is 'be as racist and xenophobic as Donald Trump.'" — @snipy.bsky.social

Well now, would you look at that? A massive, 4-YEAR-LONG study of NEARLY 30 MILLION people in France found that individuals who received a COVID-19 mRNA vaccine had a 74% LOWER risk of death from severe COVID-19 compared to unvaccinated individuals and ZERO increased risk of all-cause mortality.

There’s no need to treat these people as anything but the sordid rabble of crooks and grifters and subnormal bigots that they are.

tl;dr it's about how The Powell Memo led to Citizens United, which led us to here.

So the US just hijacked an oil tanker and the president casually says “I guess we keep the oil” Is this not just theft

White House Begins Christmas Season With Ceremonial Lighting Of Cross

One of the many reasons AI can't produce good writing is it can't hate its own writing. It can't think to itself "Maybe I'm illiterate" during the writing process. And that's essential

Everywhere you look there is an opening for leadership. What an irony that the Democratic consultant-pundit class fell into a poll-following Popularist obsession at a time of such volatility

This is a time in our nation's history that will be remembered for all the broken fools who needed so much attention.

This is actually a good example of why the customer model is wrong. I wouldn't have chosen poetry writing, but UNC made me take a class. And it absolutely made me become a much better writer, with an eye to concision and an ear now trained to the rhythm of words. I'm a better historian as a result.

Rand Paul: "It has not been the history of the US to kill people who are out of combat. Even if there is a war, which most of us dispute -- that a bunch of people who are unarmed allegedly running drugs is a war -- we still don't kill people when they're incapacitated ... it's illegal and immoral."
