There's gonna be murder this week. And then, after a final deep breath, there are gonna be many, many more.

All those "America's largest cities" where "illegal aliens reside" that aren't Houston, Dallas, Atlanta or famously-migrant-less Miami.

Newest NYT Puzzle dropped

My neighbor scraped the Oath Keepers sticker off his truck. He left the NRA and USMC stickers. Must be really difficult to be afraid to be your true, authentic self out there.

this is correct. You learn to 'goose-step' exactly ONCE in your mil career, at BOOT CAMP. the idea is that military skills - ie, shooting, etc - you must have the *DISCIPLINE and TEAMWORK* that it takes to march properly. but you're done with the ACTUAL North Korea-stuff the day you graduate.

it actually speaks to our core american values that we're bad at the goose-stepping parades

ive never heard it phrased this way and its perfect

America, what a F--kin' Day you just had.

HE DID! look close!

KING ON THRONE: I see you have returned, what offering do you bring me from your journeys? ME: My Leige, we have crossed over to the Bad Other Site, and we bring to you this as our humble tribute. [lays this tweet out in front of Throne, bigger than a trampoline]

This new energy drink is a collab between Dana White - UFC CEO -and Anheuser-Busch. It launched a week ago and they're being handed out at the Army parade for free. Trump has a tight relationship with White/UFC.

So when you say, "NO" Kings, are we talking, like, AT ALL Like.... no wiggle room here? Can we talk about some kind of carve-out situation, maybe?

There is a moment in the latest season of Reacher where a bad guy who’s been shot says “call me an ambulance” and someone says “okay, you’re an ambulance,” I laughed so hard. Bring back simpleton television

Took my kid today to a rally in our local small town. Decent crowd, but in the 2000+ plus that were there, might have seen 5 'kids' under 30. Its the kind of town where hippie-fied old people show up for stuff, so thats not totally unexpected. But need to see some Youngs at these other spots.

troubled times have come

also, the vaguest echo of "Three Kings," a movie whose blend of total subversion yet deep affection of military awesomeness is much needed.

can't believe i woke up to find my THREAD on Game of Thrones/air/SEAD tactics did NOT go round-the-world viral overnight. Im here spittin' fire literally ABOUT spittin' fire and nobody cares.....

Oh HERE WE GO. My kid is watching Game of THrones and we're FINALLY to the Drogon-as-Wild Weasel SEAD mission against Kings Landing's Scorpion air defense batteries. I seriously think they mapped the entire scene from, like, Growler weapons school slides.

Y'all think you had Game back in your day. But you never had Louis Boucher de Grandpre/"pulled so much ass that I'm in Madonna's and the Pope's family trees"-Game. shout out to a real one. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...
