Nice catch... sneaky little f***s, aren't they!?!

Whatever it is, this is my favourite sport.

Overheard: Apparently Zelenskyy had some cards, and he didn’t need a suit.

Today I watched a video in which the Governor of Iowa Jodi Ernst snidely pretend she didn’t understand that cuts to Medicaid would cause people to die. She then sarcastically used Jesus as a human shield for her total lack of morality. She is an evil person who doesn’t care who dies.

Sorry for your kids, Tim Pool. They're the ones missing out.

Spare us the fake outrage.

Chris Murphy on Joni Ernst: "I think everybody in that audience knows they're going to die, they would just rather die in old age at 85 or 90 instead of dying at 40. And the reality is that when you lose your healthcare, you are much more at risk of early death."

“Facts matter, words matter, journalism matters, and you matter.” Thank you, Lester Holt. variety.com/2025/tv/news...

“Around here, facts matter. Words matter. Journalism matters” — Lester Holt, on his final night hosting NBC Nightly News, a role he has held for the past decade.

The pardon power exists to correct legal errors, not to let reality TV hosts monetize it.

"We must regain the conviction that we need one another, that we have a shared responsibility for others and the world, and that being good and decent are worth it (229)." #PopeFrancis #LaudatoSi #WeAreFrancis

Thou shalt not tie up children in zip ties and then deport them, for that maketh thou a MONSTER. A MONSTER! THE PEOPLE DOING ZIPTYING CHILDREN ARE MONSTERS!

"The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much; it is whether we provide enough for those who have too little." -FDR, 1937

For an administration that wants to encourage people to have children they sure are coming up with creative ways to terrify women about getting pregnant in America 2025.

Where's that brainworm when we need it?

Turns out, judges agree.

Yes, yes, yes!!!

God help us... 47 is completely unhinged!

I love Bernie

I’m so glad you have risen from the dead to help us, John! Thank you for all that you do and for caring.

Gutting federal funding will hurt 26 million vulnerable kids, 7.5 million students with disabilities, and 10 million working-class families. Is this really what America stands for? #HandsOffPublicSchools

Spread the word!

🚨🚨🚨 I cannot stress enough how incredibly dangerous this is!!! Courts are slow but they are just now building cases that will likely lead to holding the administration in contempt and this language is designed to keep them from being able to enforce it!!!! This is an ALL HANDS ON DECK EMERGENCY!!🚨🚨🚨

Novel concept, but I like it!

Even on tip income, there’s only a proposed deduction. So if you don’t itemize, you still pay tax on tip income. See how they fool voters?
