The movie “White Chicks” is “Some Like It Hot” for millennials

So it’s come to this. Smeggling.

Instant mood enhancer

*bad at french*: meet me on the corner of, uh, 80th street

remarkable that the White House cannot just say that Putin is responsible for Putin's war

I’m at the MAD TV 30 year anniversary show at The Baked Potato on Ventura. I’m the only one here — does it start later? Little help?

Canada has never been more united

trump: we are going to conquer canada and make it a state canadian hockey fans: fine, we will boo your anthem at games media: these two actions are exactly the same level of bad

"I do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States." Donald Trump:

Eisenhower had a reputation for bumbling his press conferences; turned out he was scared of what he might say impromptu given the weight of the President's word, especially in foreign policy. And now we have this guy with his har-har "Governor" joke while continuing his threats to invade an ally.

So either Pete Hegseth is telling Russia & the world that every U.S. president & general has been lying about our military being the most lethal fighting force in history..Or he is telling the truth that the U.S. navy can’t match the Russian navy. Imagine navy folk hearing this

Drake is the all-time biggest loser of a rap feud and that includes people who have gotten shot and died as a result of rap feuds

Dear god

the Oversight Committee immediately devolves into chaos after Democrats call for Elon Musk to come and testify

Murray: "It is unlawful for a president to say 'I am going to decide where the money goes that Congress appropriated' ... you can't pass a law and then say, 'it doesn't apply to me.' That's what they are doing here."

Joe Kent lost two elections in a conservative-leaning district. Only the best candidates.

It’s. Already. Against. The Law.

Everything is okay.

Oh, okay

This is always my hot take. You’re allowed to love your country while also criticizing what’s happening.

mmmm I see this is a very controversial idea to some but I think I agree. And I mean, now's the time to reclaim the flag if there ever was one. The chucklefucks would rather fly various desecrations of it anyway.

Crucial angle on Elon Musk's takeover of Treasury's payment systems that people are missing: It's happening as a debt ceiling crisis looms, when you need nonpartisan people monitoring outgoing payments. Former Treasury and OMB officials explain this to me here: newrepublic.com/article/1910...
