Elon Musk got his ass kicked as a child for making fun of a classmate’s father’s suicide.

Like Liz Truss meeting the queen.

The problem with Matt Yglesias is that he revealed himself as a person who would not mind being on a list with Richard Hanania. The problem with you is that you see value in exposing people to Richard Hanania. Nobody is stopping you from abandoning your pretentions and listening to Joe Rogan.

They didn’t sell Bitcoin to the Maga people, they sold a “Trump Coin,” which promptly collapsed in value. It is all fundamentally worthless, of course, but Bitcoin is still immensely expensive.

I thought it was the conservatives who elected the crackhead?

Pat Robertson would probably condemn all of this. Of course he would also praise it the next day, because senility.

Does anyone ever ask them what wasn't working?

Well, Trump believes that generic pharmaceuticals produced in India should be heavily tax and Kennedy believes that people shouldn't take them at all, so I think we have some great synergy here.

Oh, they won’t. We’ve seen this game dozens of times. They will criticize a bit to seem sane and them start mashing the propaganda pedal again in a few days.

It is getting about time to go kayaking in the Shenandoah valley. I will try to see how many camo fishing dudes are wearing eyeliner.

I hope your grandchildren learn what you did to them and make the rest of your life sad and miserable.

Because he is in leadership so he has to be a follower. He can go fuck himself.

Just look at his hair! You get that hair if you are stealing from the poor to buy a yacht. There is no other way to get that hair.

At least Kyrsten Sinema had a fun fashion sense to go with the fascist sense.

If you can afford to run for Senate, you can afford to lose your seat and enjoy a comfortable retirement, sit on some corporate boards, etc. The cowardice is weird. Typical, but weird.

Because almost every WWII veteran is dead and unavailable to correct their descendants.

Newsom should run for the Republican nomination in 2028. Lots of old people would confuse him with their favorite TV preacher and send him money.

You see, the way you fix the military is to reduce the incentives to learn, grow, and achieve by eliminating opportunities and incentives for promotion.

That is what Wal-Mart greeters were in 1995.

I don't know if he has ever been capable of shame. This is a guy who went straight into politics from college, and had his bills paid by various Republican donors all of his life.

I went in a few weeks ago because I wanted a replacement card and was denied online. They were very helpful and I witnessed a few scenes of saintly patience.

Doge shut all of that down and sold it to China, so it is cool to fly over it now.

Isn't this pretty much what the good old boy system has always meant? It seems like folks are really missing the point if they take this merit stuff at face value. Next thing you know, they'll think rich, white Presbyterians understand predestination beyond "we are going to heaven no matter what."

God: "my plan was for the people who had jobs to keep them instead of being fired for no rational reason by assholes. I also planned for you to create vaccines and use them, fuckwads."

That is awful but also not as bad as what I was imagining.

How is there a DNA test for a speeding ticket? Do they just swab everyone to see if they can pin something on them (or is this only done for disfavored classes)?

Wordle and Connections are free and the rest of the games get tedious pretty fast, so save your $2 a month. Also, just buy the cookbook that Mark Bittman wrote 30 years ago and you don't need the cooking subscription.

I don’t know that they would want it. UPS and FedEx make good money off of the USPS because they offer services that use USPS as the last mile. I don’t think Amazon would want it either.

I prefer this kind of post-presidency vis-a-vis the other branches:
John Quincy Adams got elected to the House and repeatedly violated the rules by condemning slavery and daring them to censure him. He also represented slaves before the Supreme Court and got them freed in the Amistad case.

Did Susan Collins finally learn her lesson, or did she press the wrong button?

Sounds like a prime candidate for Attorney General of Texas, should the incumbent finally ascend to higher office.

If anything, all of the egghead bean-counter stuff that Elon is up to is calculated to distract the media from Trump's coronation as divinely-anointed king.

The celebrity members are able to treat the rank and file like slaves. They have a prison camp where inconvenient people disappear to “voluntarily.”

No kidding, so if Tommy Tuberville could hold up a bunch of appointments while in the minority, are we to assume you are dumber than him?
