MacFarlane: I'm filling a notebook with misinformation spreading about January 6th today. The idea that these cases were wrongful, no case was overturned, not a one on appeal. And lots of people appealed. They had a 100% success rate for juries at trial.

U.S. ENTRY-LEVEL JOB OPENINGS HAVE FALLEN 35% OVER THE PAST 18 MONTHS, ACCORDING TO NEWSNATION.

A story about KY GOP Senate nominee Andy Barr: In 2019 he got mad at AOC and demanded she come to his district to visit a coal mine. She said yes, which he didn't expect, so he withdrew the invitation. Then it turned out there were no working coal mines in his district. Because he's an idiot. 1/3

Why does this video seem insane? Because it is. Vance takes a felony case, flattens it into “misdemeanor trespassing,” calls Peters an “innocent grandmother,” credits Trump for a commutation issued by a Democratic governor, then uses that rewritten story to justify possible compensation.

CAVA tonight. It has beat 3 out of the last 4 quarters. Was a hot restaurant chain. With the consumer so sour in 2026, is it still hot? #$CAVA (no position)

The backlash against tech, and the billionaires, is growing. Young people are rejecting it. They are reading paper books, magazines, and buying vinyl records. They are quitting social media, even IG. They are going to the mall.

This says it all, doesn't it? I've said it for many years. There is no Republican Party anymore. Only MAGAs. But it remains to be seen what happens without Donald Trump.

It's not fixing anything on the reflecting pool. Lipstick on a pig. And, yes, let's put the ballroom through normal channels to get a design and space that will work with the mansion. But they didn't do that.

Some of the identified individuals the US killed in the Caribbean and eastern Pacific showed "no indication of involvement with drug trafficking." And even if they were traffickers, they'd be low level. Killing them would make virtually no impact on the cartels or drug trafficking into the US.
