Ok, we need a new James Bond AND a new Archbishop of Canterbury, and pretty soon it'll be time for another new Willy Wonka and a new Doctor Who. We need to economise. They should all be amalgamated into a single new character called Archdoctor Bondwonka.

Let me put a finer point on one of the things he and I both said yesterday: Begich III's argument about the national debt is a lie. He will vote for a massive, debt-exploding tax cut for the rich the first chance he gets. Just like the members of his party did during the first Trump Admin.

So they removed the black chairman of the Joint Chiefs in the middle of his 4-year tour, without cause, and they're seeking to replace him with a white retired Air Force three-star general who lacks the requisite experience as a service chief or combatant commander? Huh, how about that

Side note. There are eight members of the joint chiefs. the chair is black. the CNO (navy) is a woman. the other six are white guys. chair and the cno got fired tonight.

Style has a profound meaning to Black. If we can't drive we will invent walks & the world will envy the dexterity of our feet. If we can't have ham we will boil chitterlings if we are given rotten peaches we will make cobblers if given scraps we will make quilts NIKKI GIOVANNI

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

I got rid of it for a while, but you know what? Fascists hurt when you laugh at them. I heard JD Vance fucked a couch, but the real problem is this chump is a weird, racist, sexist rat fuck, his breath stinks of billionaire boots, and he seems like wouldn't wash the cushions afterward.

They’re going prosecute AOC and when they do, I don’t wane to hear a damn negative word about her on here whether you think she’s too far to the center or too far left. Normal politics are now cancelled until further notice.

Sick of hearing people complain about Gerard Butler not being able to do accents. We don't go to movies to see Butler do accents. We go to see an angry guy who looks like he spent the whole afternoon drinking at the pub and forgetting to shower somehow manage to punch a villain through a wall.

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

I sincerely don’t understand how any Republican in America can be okay with Musk awarding himself government contracts. He’s simultaneously Trump’s everything Tsar and receiving a constant inflow of federal money. This is everything Republicans accused the Clintons of on ketamine in space.

Currently, Trump's ex-press secretary and his daughter-in-law -- who are both paid Fox News personalities -- are co-hosting a Fox News show together. The network is also using this broadcast to hype up Lara Trump's new show. But, yes, it is over the line to call Fox a MAGA propaganda outlet.

This story can't be repeated enough. The GOP is lined up behind the guy who is so incompetent that his quasi-gov't agency did this. They're confirming his highly questionable nominees & hurting the American people. And "accidentally"? It was stupidity, not accident. www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog...
