How super sweet. I don’t think anyone has ever described my work as “the sweatiest book I’ve read in a long time.” I love that. The best. Good luck with your book. Definitely following you. Resurrecting Pershing Gervais in my current book project. Now HE was the sweatiest of the sweaty!

Just so it's clear, assassination of foreign leaders, like their rendition, is illegal by national and international law.

As a US citizen I want to make clear I do not support the chartering of the so-called Board of Peace - which is no more and no less than President Trump’s latest grift and is globally destabilizing to boot. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Jurors Find Sandwich Hurler Not Guilty of Assault

I suppose what this means is that you can still indict a ham sandwiich but, apparently, you can’t convict someone for throwing one - LOLOLOLOLOLOL.

If only they would work as hard at governing as they do at shifting blame.

And we need to stop watching anything those networks and production companies put out there. Walk away from them 100% - now.

Um, have any of these "commentators" ever seen Kash Patel?

In Pursuing Trump Rival, Weaponization Czar Sidesteps Justice Dept. Norms

I think he’d be better off to “cast the specter of criminality” on his toupee. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/19/u...

I love TRYING to explain charivari when I do my Mardi Gras lecture each spring! That’d be a great explain-er!

Is anyone really surprised that a draft dodger inspired such a piss poor showing on the part of the uniformed military? Would you have brought your A-game? Seems like, on this occasion at least, he got exactly what he deserved.

Hilarious that such a bunch of dark-hearted assholes found another dark-hearted asshole objectionable. Pot. Meet Kettle.

Though it didn’t take the court long to narrow the impact of 2) -I’m thinking Slaughterhouse and Cruikshank!

Ever added sumac? I roasted some with sumac recently - I loved them.

So, what should we call our new party? I think the He Man Woman Hater’s Party has been taken. Otherwise, the field is wide open.

I’m good. In Looziana, we’ve been dancing on the edge of the apocalypse for a long time.

Hey Boo, Why don’t you call Joe and Mika? They are experienced at folding to Trump. I’m sure they can offer support. Missing spines are their bailiwick.

Fair, but, since we are a taker state, is it really our money in the first place?

Well, now, he was a lawbreaker too - and a grifter! I know very little about it. Probably better to ask someone at Princeton or the like.

I just canceled my NYT subscription - because stupidity and cupidity are free.
