This reminds me of the correspondence between Jefferson and Adams, if you dipped their letters in grease, set them on fire, and dropped them in a dumpster, which was also on fire.

Lord, I know I am not perfect. I know I stray from Your will. I know I fail every day to earn Your grace. But if You let Donald Trump sue Elon Musk for defamation I will clean up my act and do everything I can to glorify you. No monkey’s paw stuff please; I want to be able to cover it too.

Let’s talk for a moment about some of the more subtle ways that the press acts as a mouthpiece for law enforcement. Actor Jonathan Joss was shot to death on Sunday. I don’t know what happened; I wasn’t there. But his husband said a homophobic neighbor shot him as part of an explicit hate crime. /1

I'm relieved that Mountainhead movie is a movie and not a new series, because I just can't follow one more series where the lead characters are all greedy assholes. Reading the news these days is enough of that

Rand Paul: "The math doesn't really add up... the increase in spending put into this bill exceeds the DOGE cuts. Essentially this is a bill by the military industrial complex advocates who are padding the military budget." www.reddit.com/r/WeTheFifth...

“One more question, sir. You wrote a book about the former president's cognitive issues, but the current president posted that the former president was executed in 2020 and replaced by a mindless, soulless robot with cancer. What am I missing here?”

Annie by far would be the funniest senator. And if there were a medical emergency she could help with that, too. No need for constituents to die prematurely and unnecessarily!
