Marc Thiessen does an excellent job of being a complete and utter asshole. wapo.st/3Pkq08v

Here's another Homicide Genius who thinks populists are "bad." It's amazing how brain-dead people are. People like Catherine probably think "Social Justice" is also a pejorative word. Billioniares cannot be populists. Say it with me now! Billioniares cannot be populists. Your turn!

Lisbon is a cool city. Enjoy your day.

200 years ago today, we threw a presidential election to the House of Representatives. Read the beginning of what we ranked in 2024. www.okayhistory.com/p/shady

While you are watching all kind of sports this week, please find out why so many people wear suits and let me know.

Here's what I wrote about the 2008 election and how groundbreaking it was. Then Obama became just an okay president. Whatever. www.okayhistory.com/p/yes-we-did

Let me know when this narrative wins. Trump would have cried foul if he had lost and is doing what we expect to have done. Brag about it. These public posts are silly. They aren’t going to change. Look toward 2026 and win back congress.

I have to laugh at these types of takes. Remember the first lie of a newly inaugurated president Trump in 2017? It was about the crowd size who came to see him. He’s not changing his narrative. This is not a fight worth having.

I’m all for WFH, but do we really want a society that sits at home and only engages with people we want to and like?

Me: I'm going to work from home this morning. Also me: I will leave my work computer at work.

I find it funny that dudes who talk about sports dress up like they are going to a board meeting at Goldman Sachs. When are we going to see guys wear jeans and t shirts breakdown why David Jones is a terrible starting QB? It’s not like these dudes dress up for their podcasts.

Matt has been cancelled. I know this because I was walking down the national mall a few months ago and I saw him on a huge stage with a big screen that made him visible to the 50 people standing there and he told me so.

Is it me or do these guys have huge foreheads?

Having the Republicans control everything makes living in DC feel like every place is Bullfeathers.

Why are you people watching the debate and writing about it? Holy shit.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day. Be well.

My wife just told me the United States of America is cutting down Stumpy, the most glorious cherry blossom in the entire world. As an unabashed tree hugger, I am devastated by this news.

Is there a reason why politicians can't come up with their own campaign slogans instead of biting off the long chin of Ronald Reeeegan? The "Four Years ago" question in the 21st century and 24-hour news cycle might as well be asking if we were better off 40 years ago.

Just like St. Patrick, I wasn't born in Ireland!
