Well, gas is expensive, and food is expensive, and we’re doing a war nobody wants, but at least there are no jobs

So according to the WSJ a US Senator conspired with another country to manipulate the US into starting a war, am I getting this right

Does he know it’s not the kind of conference where you sit for panels on How To Start A Cartel? Because that’s some cartel ass advice.

(And to be serious: I never thought about natural selection applied to criminal enterprises but now that you say it…of course.)

A funny thing about this “George Washington“ version is that anyone who-like me-made it at least 1/2 way through that Chernow GW biography will know George *would NEV-er* be caught dead in a simple black tshirt.

Dude was the Quentin Crisp of Founding Fathers.

I know I sound crazy but instead of spending a billion dollars in a day to kill people in another country we should try spending a billion dollars in a day to help people in this country.

It is so damning of US news media that so many outlets refuse to just straight up say that Senator Tim Sheehy assaulted an activist.

He did not "help" Capitol police. They did not need his help. He wanted to assault the guy and did. He should resign.

What??!! Oh no! I get it but what a huge loss to the “team” part of the team. And it as always fun to watch a guy who looks like he could casually toss a car across the street.

The Official Site of Major League Baseball Coverage includes audio and video clips, interviews, statistics, schedules and exclusive stories.

After years of mlb.tv and the SNY app I resorted to sailing the high seas with a parrot on my shoulder. Gotta have your adblock on point but the experience is less frustrating than trying to get these companies to let you give them money to watch them serve ads to you during the games.

All the best to you. Just got my port out last year and I can only imagine what it would feel like to have to get it put back. Keep up the fight!

When despised by an account full of video games, GoT, and begging for money, I find it best to hit “mute” and take it as a win.
Will I be roasted by someone on day three in the same pajamas? Sure. But I’ll never know.

“The Intern in Charge”: Meet the 22-Year-Old Trump’s Team Picked to Lead Terrorism Prevention One year out of college and with no apparent national security expertise, Thomas Fugate is the Department of Homeland Security official tasked with overseeing the government’s main hub for combating v...

The Republicans seem to be prepping an argument that any domestic terror attacks in the aftermath of their Iran attacks will be the fault of Democrats for shutting down DHS funding, so I'd like to remind everyone of this appointment:

If the administration continue to be true their word, operating like the 19th century French, we may indeed look back on it that way.

IIRC when Rubio was Europe a few weeks ago he said in plain English the post WWII way of operating was a mistake and it was time to go back to the good ol’ days.

Exactly. It’s politics. You have to meet with your enemies. But that meeting should have a strategic plan, a tactical plan, and you need to execute on those and get results.
The Whitmet meeting, for example, happened long before Mamdani was a national name. She tried to hide behind a clipboard!
