CARTOON OF THE DAY
(From @mluckovichajc)
FOX: *plays clip of Gavin Newsom pointing out that crime is higher in Louisiana than in California*
FOX: Your response?
MIKE JOHNSON: He needs to go an govern his state and not be engaging in this
So not only do churches NOT have to pay taxes, they're going to get YOUR tax dollars to boot. This seems like oh, I don't know, government establishing a religion in violation of the First Amendment?
Realized that the closest degrees of separation that I have to a president is our current knucklehead. I said at least itβs not Reagan to which my wife replied, βDonβt you know Arthur Lafferβs kid?β
Goddamnit
These fellas walked faster than the most popular bus route in Nashville, TN.
Shouldn't public transportation in a major US city move faster than people can walk?
Life comes at you fast

Newsom on ICE action outside his presser: "It's pretty sick & pathetic. It's everything you know about Trump's America & the authoritarian tendencies of the president. Wake up, America. You will not have a country if he rigs this election. You will a president running for a third term. Mark my word"
So, no national guard on January 6th, but definitely on August 11th. Makes total sense.

"Let me be crystal clear: crime in DC is ending and ending today."
Jessica: I also heard no complaints when Mike Johnson decided to abdicate his job to say actually congress isn't in session anymore because I don't want to have to vote on turning over the Epstein filesβ¦. so be equal opportunity in your complaints about fleeing your job
I FOUND SOME 2020 ELECTION FRAUD! Trump supporters Burkman and Wohl have pled guilty to 4 felony counts for orchestrating a series of robocalls to suppress the vote of predominantly black voters in Michigan in the 2020 election. www.michigan.gov/ag/news/pres...
Once again, my fellow nerds, I am begging you to remember that giving into bullies only guarantees they'll be back.
You've got to punch Biff Tannen in the face, McFly, or he'll rule over you forever.
The rich must be incentivised; the poor must be disciplined.
The political economy of the super-elite in one headline.
By no means scientific, but as a millennial, you must love either βTake Me Awayβ or βI2Iβ
WATCH: βCorruption in plain sightβ
Kanew tries to connect the Dots on @GovBillLee & Muskβs Teslas-Only tunnel and ends up feeling like that Charlie Day meme with the red string all over the place

Meanwhile, in Texasβ¦
When designed right, bike infrastructure is actually found to improve the response times of first responders!
Donβt let ignorance stop good urbanism!
As I detailed in WHITE FLIGHT, segregationists in Atlanta absolutely loved public services -- buses and trolleys, parks and pools, golf courses and tennis courts, etc. -- right until they were forced to desegregate and "stolen" from them. They abandoned them and built up private alternatives.
Iβve come to realize that the entire MAHA movement is just grown ass adults tricking themselves into thinking that junk food is healthy because a random dye was removed.
This is truly insane. We are witnessing one of the most corrupt cover-up schemes in historyβand it's all playing out in plain view.
The Trump administration thinks the cop who recklessly fired his gun into two homes during the Breonna Taylor raid should spend 1 day in prison.
For perspective, the administration incarcerated RΓΌmeysa ΓztΓΌrk for 45 days for writing an op-ed -- and only released her after a court order.
After spending too much money eating lamb at restaurants, my wife tried her hand at making a rack of lamb. It was very very tasty. Had a graveyard on my plate by the end of the meal.
Back in college, we printed a shirt that had a Scottish saying, βPeople speak of my drinking but never speak of my thirst.β My memory may have it wrong but I use this quote pretty frequently when people try to guilt me.
One day. Thatβs the slap in the face the DOJ is calling βaccountabilityβ in Breonna Taylorβs case.
Now they want to act like civil rights charges were too much? Please be for real.
If youβre wondering how little they value Black livesβlook no further.
βMen are alone, we are so depressed.π₯Ίβ
Gee, I wonder why women are choosing to avoid menβ¦itβs almost like you take our lives if your fragile ego is hurt or feels rejected β¦.
In case I wasnβt clearβ¦
