Don't mess with the Zohran! Folks

They’re planning on building a detention center for migrants in the middle of the fetid swamps of Florida. If you think this is something new, the first internment camp they sent me and my family to in 1942 was a barbed wire prison called Rohwer. It was located in the swamps of Arkansas.

Obviously it's a very bad moment but it is funny that Trump really seems to have thought he would win a Nobel Peace Prize by getting on the phone with a bunch of authoritarian sociopaths and saying "knock it off." Dumbest possible version of the Great Man Theory of History. The sports radio version.

This is like SNL level parody of North Korean state media

hey there @jaketapper.bsky.social, you gonna do a book on this or nah. SEEMS IMPORTANT!

LA is YouTube New York is TikTok DC is LinkedIn Chicago is Bluesky Miami is Instagram Phoenix is Facebook San Francisco is NextDoor Salt Lake City is Pornhub Berlin's Führerbunker in 1945 is Twitter

That is just a shitty way for Halliburton's season to end.

We’re at war with Iran because Trump hated our first Black president, who had already negotiated and signed a deal to keep Iran’s ability to build nuclear weapons in check, with monitoring and verification.

No words. Poor guy.

[Golf noises]

Oh my god, the crowd mikes right now 😳

Is Tommy Fleetwood finally gonna get a PGA Tour win? It's absurd how the man hasn't yet.

At this point I suspect Vance might have a humiliation fetish

When I tell ya, I tell ya!

Seven home runs thru six innings.

Carbon copy day. 🔨

W for Phoenix

Gas is $3.50 a gallon, butter is $6 bucks a pound, eggs are $4 bucks a dozen, we’re at war with Iran, South African Nazis stole all our data, and ICE is throwing citizens in detention camps. But hey, at least those 3 trans kids can’t play volleyball anymore.

Trump Yesterday: I should've won the Nobel Peace Prize. Trump Today: I started a war. He. Is. Insane.

You have more in common with the average Iranian citizen than you do with the people that run this country

ABC News just lapping this all up. It's like watching "Scud Stud" breathless coverage.

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

I hope everyone who farmed clicks by arguing that trump was anti war in some sense is proud of themselves

Trump has been in office for five months and we have masked men disappearing people in the streets, our social safety net has been dismantled, the federal government is anti-vax, and we’re bombing Iran. Tell me some more about how there was no difference between the two parties.

"Thank you for your attention to this matter"

So yeah, this week ain't gonna be great

Both Cubs & Mariners have been ordered off the field at Wrigley in top of sixth inning because the home plate umpire is apparently and understandably suffering from heat stroke. Paramedics on the scene. Yikes.

A blast furnace wind whipping out of the southwest on a 90°+ day at Wrigley Field? Feeling football score-y today!

3 meats, 2 vegetables, 1 grill, full eyes, clear hearts, can't lose

“Your intelligence community said they have no evidence Iran is building a nuclear weapon.” TRUMP: “My intelligence community is wrong.”

Gen Z/Alpha: the 2000s were cool we should bring some of that back Millennials: ok, let us tell you about some of our fav- Z/Alpha: *blasting creed and trying on low waisted jncos* Millennials: no wait The Govt: oh hell yeah! *frantically starts fabricating evidence of WMDs in the Middle East*

Been a while since an NBA Finals Game 7 happened! Can't wait.

This is so stupid and wink-wink racist that I thought it had to be fake. It is not fake.

Can't wait to read about Elon fanboys telling us "akshually this was a good thing"
