I understand Miller doesn’t like being called Goebbels, but maybe - and I’m just spitballing here - he should stop plagiarizing Goebbels speeches

OLIVER: “I’d argue @disney & Bob Iger need to stand by @jimmykimmel and his staff — history is also going to remember the cowards who knew better. Giving the bully your lunch money doesn’t make him go away, it just makes him come back hungrier each time.” 🎯

An Arizona man is facing felony charges for threatening to shoot up a gay bar to avenge Charlie Kirk. He was convinced the shooter had "transgender ideology." Fortunately, he was stopped, but this is on the media for running with the erroneous WSJ reporting. www.azfamily.com/2025/09/19/p...

"I have spent the last few weeks addressing and preparing for a military invasion by the President of the United States. No, I’m not a soldier or a foreign adversary. I’m the Governor of Illinois"

Neil Young brought it at Farm Aid. One of the greatest rock n rollers of all time.

Jimmy Kimmel and other late-night comedians have certainly said things about me that I found offensive, even outrageous. It never crossed my mind to call up the networks and say, "Hey, get rid of this guy." Because that's not how America works. play.prx.org/listen?ge=pr...

If Donald Trump wants people to shut up, it’s time to get louder. Fuck Trump.

Josh Shapiro: "I was on a Spanish language radio program in the Allentown area and the host said something really chilling to me -- that he now has to think about what topics he's going to discuss because he's fearful he might offend federal regulators of the president."

Networks—especially ABC, Disney, Hulu, and CBS—need to hear this: you’re standing on the wrong side of history, bending the knee to authoritarianism before the fight even begins, even though the law’s on your side. You’re losing viewers. We’re not going to stand w/you when you’re not standing w/us!

Psychologists and psychiatrists call this "concrete thinking." It reflects an inability to engage in abstract thinking, and a strong propensity to think of all nouns as depicting physical objects. It's the first way children begin to understand how to describe the world with words.

Crockett: "I'm gonna honor someone who decided they were going to proclaim I was involved in the 'great white replacement'? Yeah, I'm not honoring that ... it's unfortunate more of my colleagues even on my side couldn't see the amount of harm this man was attempting to inflict upon our communities"

BREAKING: Gavin Newsom signs legislation to ban face coverings for federal agents.

BREAKING: In an undercover operation last year, the FBI recorded Tom Homan, now the White House border czar, accepting $50,000 in cash after indicating he could help the agents — who were posing as business executives — win government contracts. www.msnbc.com/msnbc/news/t...

ICE officials insist they did not use excessive force. Yet in a chaotic scene at an immigration detention facility in the Chicago suburbs, Illinois Democratic congressional candidates reported being tear-gassed, hit with

NYT: "The 40th anniversary [Farm Aid] concert comes..as American farmers face perhaps the bleakest economic conditions since the 1980s... Prices are down across a range of crops, so many growers will lose money on each acre they harvest this fall, and farm bankruptcies are beginning to rise."

In my grocery store, chocolate mini-morsels are about $8. A small container of berries is close to $6. I wanted to buy a large container of yogurt and some jam to sweeten it a little--$10 total. Thanks, Mr. President!

Honestly if Disney feels like the material of late night comics are not “on brand” for the company (as some defenders of Iger have claimed), then maybe it should stick to amusement parks and get out of broadcast TV. I say this as a Disney shareholder. (And good for Eisner for speaking up!)

Here are the Top 5 Dogs of the week!

I can live without Disney. I can live without CBS. I can live without NBC. America cannot live without the Freedom Of Speech

I think a lot of guys are asking military lawyers that question right now

NATO member Estonia says 3 Russian jets breached its airspace in “brazen” incursion - Reuters

This is what courage looks like. This is what leadership looks like.

WTF! ICE agents are cosplaying as snipers now? Protesters are clashing with ICE outside the immigration processing facility in west suburban Broadview. Agents dragged two protesters, including one pulled inside the building. A chemical agent was reportedly sprayed.

A couple ex-CDC members who left because of RFK are testifying in front of the Senate. So far, they seem like serious, sober doctors. I don't trust them.

While we're all distracted by the domestic sideshow, Trump is sending the military out to kill people he says are "terrorists", in violation of US and international law. No wonder people at the Pentagon are checking in with their lawyers. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Shapiro is right--PA was important to the election. Harris never gained more support in the state. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Sigh. Thinking of my dad and how angry he'd be right now.

RFK Jr. is objectively pro-disease, pro-illness and pro-child death.

Free speech? Really? It cost Jimmy Kimmel his job.

My union takes a stand; let every other creative union follow suit.

Democratic New York lawmakers — as well as City Comptroller Brad Lander — were arrested by Department of Homeland Security (DHS) officers Thursday after demanding access to an alleged detention facility run by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) at 26 Federal Plaza.
