Blue Jays fans chanting "LAKE ONTARIO!" in the stands while the Mariners are pitching? You absolutely love to see it

Peter Thiel is getting a very cold reception outside his new mansion in the exclusive Barrio Parque neighborhood in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Argentinians are chanting: “Out, out, Peter out.”

It is under-appreciated just how catastrophically bad this number is. Biden bottomed out at 32 among registered voters in 2022 when inflation was 9%. Gallup had Bush at 28% in Sept 2008 wavepolling.com/results/2026...

Gamers have an interesting way of expressing their feelings.

It is SO blatantly obvious everything that’s happening is because both parties are owned almost entirely by AIPAC. They don’t actually believe in anything. They’re just in it for the money. They will fritter and fetterman away your whole country.

I wish the media had the same urgency about the state of Mitch McConnell as they did for Kamala's W-2 from McDonald's in the 80s.

1. Sen. Darlene Graham, Lindsey Graham’s sister, is asked at a debate, “Are Taiwan and the South China Sea national security issues to the United States? If so, why or how?” She responds: “I’m just gonna be honest here. I’m not up on national security. I’m not an authority on national security.”

Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear says Mitch McConnell absolutely refuses to film a proof of life video. Ok then, why don't we absolutely refuse to give him a paycheck?

Mitch McConnell hasn’t been seen or heard from in 6 weeks(!) in the hospital. Yet he still has a job, still getting paid, and getting unlimited world class healthcare. The man who voted against a living wage, against universal healthcare, and against guaranteed paid leave—is now getting all three.

My husband texted me "IT HAPPENED" but it turned out to be about LeBron going to the 76ers. I had 2 minutes of beautiful serenity.

Benjamin Netanyahu is a war criminal.

New cartoon by Michael de Adder. Just one hard punch after another.

politicians want everyone to speak well of terrible people who died because many of them are terrible people who will die

RIP Lindsey Graham. You taught me it was okay to be a coward whose only skill is debasing myself until death for a tiny, ultimately illusionary crumb of power.

Ahead of England v Norway in the World Cup, enjoy this classic from my old pal Patrick Kidd in The Times

Canada had a good run. No shame in losing to the seventh ranked team in the world
