A reminder to reporters, when historians look back on this moment with the president throwing himself a military parade and the people throwing No Kings rallies across America, the media sources raving about the former and sneering at the latter are going to be quoted by name. This is your legacy!

We’re at war with Iran, Trump’s gone into hiding, nobody will tell us our objectives, plan or end game, our Sec of Defense is a useless dipshit, our Sec of State lied about it, our DNI loves the leader of Iran’s greatest ally, & tomorrow we’re having a parade for Trump’s bday.

As a summer intern in 2011, I got pretty drunk on margaritas with a delightfully spry older lady at a Manhattan bar at like 4 PM, and it was only after she’d said goodbye to our entire intern class by kissing each one of us on the cheek did someone ask me if I’d ever heard of Cloris Leachman

As a four-decade veteran of the daily journalism business, let me tell you: Every competent political reporter in this country knows that Trump is trying to establish a dictatorship. The industry's shame is that so few journalists will say so, and the ones who do lose their jobs.

there’s got to be some kind of statute of limitations on this crap. I get moral hazard, I get all of that, it’s just completely insane to say that this guy who built an American life for 30 years isn’t American.

This is Waylon. He'd been in a shelter for 95 days when a woman came in with her son Cai. Cai asked so many great questions about how to keep him safe and healthy. When he returned to officially adopt Waylon, he arrived in a very dapper suit, saying it was a "special occasion." 14/10 for everybody
