Bukele went straight from the White House to the Roxbury.

Never knew Gen X was so lame.

If dissident Republicans could put aside their differences with Harris to focus on protecting the nation from a mad dictator, so could...

AI doesn’t need to become self-aware to be dangerous. It just needs to be plugged into HR, healthcare, and credit scoring systems with no appeal process.

Sure seems like Citizens United could be used for good right about now.

Calm down, folks, it was just an attempted assassination of a Jewish Democratic governor and his family on the first night of Passover, it’s not like somebody spray painted a dick on a Cybertruck.

Trump had all weekend to clarify what had seemed to be a clear-if-belated communication from his own CPB. Instead, he waits days, then blames the "fake news" for taking his administration at face value. Though to be fair, taking anything this administration says at face value is fake news.

The only good thing about Bill Maher is that he is a living testament to the necessity of talented writers.

Kind of hilarious that these three not even remotely hot people are wearing hats that imply they have not yet successfully made America hot.

Change my mind -- without using your vampiric powers of persuasion.

I'm not sure how exemptions that leave us "too dependent" on phones, computers, and *microchips* is going to make our nation more secure.

I don't hate you because you're a liar. I hate you because you're an influential idiot.

How much blunt force trauma is too much?

Assuming Musk knows this, you could just say he's lying. And should. You could hedge your bets by saying he's either lying or grossly incompetent I guess. Whatever. Use the language he has earned.

The Warby Parker glow-up is real!

The "leftists" whose absence from this eugenist fest you weirdly criticize are not anti-children, and are for supporting children and the people who have them. The discourse at this particular event was dominated by the far right because the far right organized it. WTH is wrong with you.

wait is this article a rick roll

the three of us are having a conversation

FAFO is you fucking around and electing Trump, then finding out that I am newly willing to incessantly post about politics on Facebook.

Hot take: if your automated systems have resulted in millions of cars being recalled, you probably shouldn't be in charge of automating citizenship and immigration status.

This is what the Secretary of Education thinks should play a greater role in educating the nation's children.

This explains why they think all those dead people are getting checks.

the rumors are true

There is only one appropriate response. By failing to lead with that, you give cover to the alternative.

Shave all of their heads

"China is going to collapse!" he joyfully exclaims as a neighbors' child is diagnosed with measles.

Do we even know if Trump knows how to play chess.

I recognize that Trump wants incompetent people in charge of things so he can wreck the government, but if he can't keep competent lawyers to competently argue that the incompetent people are acting competently, actually, the incompetent people are going to have a much harder time of it.

Looks like I'm going to need a source of passive-aggressive income.

Splish Splashism.

Surgeons fear removing Bessent's fingers from his chin would cause irreparable damage to his brain, but at this point isn't it just a question of what's the greater harm?

Devaluing the dollar while eliminating the FDIC? The Crypto President is back, baby!

No crimes alleged here. Just pure political retribution for calling out his lies. Thank Roberts.

What you have just witnessed is a master class in negotiation.

Diverting attention from the tariff war retreat by directing all proxies to play up the president's tough-as-nails stance on nice long showers. This is a masterclass. This is Alpha Male+.

I was confirmed Secretary of Transportation but I identify as Water Flow Goddess.

I heart @brooke — telling a suicide bomber who blew up the economy due for no reason that he is brilliant is peak beta chode for Ackman.

Happy Temporary Liberation From Liberation Day Day!
