According to Trump, Biden has "Stage 9 cancer." He was able to make this diagnosis because Trump has Stage 11 dementia.

Also, "tariff" sounds suspiciously like a French word that has been imported into English. Let's use a word that sounds more like English: tax.

Guide to acting in a 'Mission Impossible": speak slowly and slightly above a whisper.

One of my favorite things about the new Pope is that he is 69 and everyone is referring to him as 'young." As someone who is 68, I fully endorse this description!

New York voters: it's time to chuck Schumer.

"This is not what I voted for!" Uh, sorry, Trump voters. This is what you voted for.

Hey, Big Tech titans -- how's that whole sucking up to Trump thing working out for you? Yesterday your companies lost $1.03 trillion in value. Think it's gonna go better today?

Trump is "open to negotiations" on the tariffs. Translation: "Bend your knees before me." Better plan for the world: 'No. You screwed up and have destroyed the global economy, Donnie. Bend your knees to us."

Where does Junior Ranger First Class JD Vance get off trashing long-time -- and peaceful and marvelous -- ally Denmark?

That health influencer who sticks his face in ice water and wipes it with banana peels? He’s not “journaling.” He’s practicing his cursive.

Has Adrian Brody finished his Oscar speech yet?

Trump says we're not a woke nation anymore. What a relief! We can ignore other people's experiences, beliefs, struggles, accomplishments, traumas and aspirations and just go back to being arrogant, self-entitled pricks. Yay!

EV sales up 37% in Europe. Tesla sales plummet 45%. Huh. I wonder why that is?

You know what's depressing? When you're sitting around with a bunch of your friends and they're bragging about who has the best cardiologist. Have I really hit that point in my life? you think to yourself. This is who I am hanging out with now?

The New Yorker has an article entitled “What Happened to San Francisco Really?” Every few years these kinds of articles about California show up in New York papers or magazines. The reverse never seems to happen. You know why? We don’t care about New York. Enjoy your mayor! He seems nice.

Since when does a loudmouth Fox commentator get to determine the national boundaries of Ukraine? I think that’s a decision that belongs to the people of Ukraine. Not someone like little Petey Hegseth.

So some guy shows up in the Oval Office wearing a t-shirt, black jeans and a ball cap and brings his kid along and stands over the President and regularly interrupts him. Need any additional information on who is really in charge? It ain't that loser Trump.

What Trump and Musk are attempting here is a post-factual line-item veto. The line item veto has already be ruled unconstitutional. This madness needs to immediately come to a halt. Immediately. Congress must ecancel all projects the US government has with any of Musk's companies.

Doesn't it seem like sometimes the most moronic thing some drunken asshole says in a bar becomes a GOP policy goal or talking point?
