Remove a letter, make a movie BETTER. Go.

More commie @$$ BS to keep up appearances:

If I had the money, I'd travel the world, visit some of my mutuals, share a cup/glass, maybe cook a meal* or do a little cleaning or make a repair before heading off to the next location. *Or freezer full of meals

The US ambassador is going to walk around loudly telling people to speak English, isn't he?

I'm not worried about Christmas. I have a reliable supplier of horse poop. That's gotta be worth something, right?

getting frustrated with my Pictionary partner bc im furiously drawing a skull and he won't say "3"

If the trade war brings down the US *and* China, it won't be all bad. But too many will suffer along the way.

"Maybe skip Christmas, celebrate me instead." - Donald Trump, probably.

Important to keep in mind that this tariff plan that is destroying the economy is supported by citations to Ron Vara, a made up source that is an anagram of Navarro. Amazing.

“What is Xi Jinping thinking during all of this? Surprisingly, he's probably staying put on whatever previous policy plan was in play on the United States. He knows Trump is prone to cave when pressured, and he knows that Elon is a malleable, highly corruption-prone asset.”

If I'm supposed to do my own research can I please have funding for clinical trials?

Donald Trump's "brilliance" is mostly just refusing to pay for things he agreed to pay for.

Maybe it's time for a traditional pope again: Italian, lots of places and secret love children...

It's 7:15 am and I'm craving...pasta.

Soon Americans will be building and driving real cars again, not woke cars, but hard steel without crumple zones and air bags. You'll hear the road and the engine, and maybe the sounds of the 8-track. They'll go a few miles on each gallon of real American gas and they'll run, mostly, for 80k miles.

I don't know, but these potholes are so deep if someone doesn't fix them we're going to be able to smuggle goods from China through there.

Obama has to go and tell Donald he'd never be President.

Wordle just...just... INSULTED ME!

I wrote about cross-border e-commerce, tariffs, and Trump memes and memorabilia @nytimes.com

Donald Trump hears about things from reporters that he never hears about from his staff.

Barley bread from a little roadside stand in Dharamsala. Spicy mixian noodles on the street in Yunnan. BBQ squid in Dalian...

If we run out of bread, we can always eat cake!

Al Gore ripped the Trump administration to shreds in a speech Monday at a climate week event in San Francisco.

This will all make sense when Donald Trump reveals that his plan the whole time was to write his signature onto the stock market

You know who was right about everything? Al Gore.

The crabapple tree is usually covered with bees this time of year and this year it is ... not, and I am concerned.

It would be funny if this person started a GoFundMe and we all sent a little money and they got rich as a joke.

Okay, but what if another, heretofore unknown Cardinal shows up at the conclave, has anyone considered that possibility?

I helped move the flag at an Episcopal church from the front to the nave for a guitar night back in 2005 and no one ever moved it back.
