It would be a wild statistic if 1 in every 100 Republicans was answering a poll.

Mike Johnson: "When I'm in these big arenas, I ask for hands -- 'Show me your hand if you've answered a poll in the last six months.' There will be like three hands among 300 people. I'm telling you, these polls are off. All of them."

It's okay that the President is an addled mass of melting cheese. She's got it. We're okay.

Giving Melania Trump the Nancy Reagan treatment is something else...

Ah, the old "Teach them that there's no free lunch" trick. People love that.

this is fucking appalling. i already knew james dolan (who owns the knicks and madison square garden) was a douche but this is next-level. www.nytimes.com/athletic/771...

"Ordinarily, moving historical items within the building is a deliberate process overseen by curators. Hegseth’s staff dispatched its own team to relocate an Eisenhower globe. They dropped it...The resulting gash appears to be several inches wide." wapo.st/3WF2YQo

NEW: Illinois First Lady MK Pritzker, wife of Governor JB Pritzker, announces she’s sending $500,000 to Amy Acton after Vivek Ramaswamy’s truly vile ad featuring Acton’s estranged mom.

Trolls (technical term) below the bridge seem to have this view of Yoopers as standoffish, angry, and isolated. The UP is like 40% hippies 40% students and...yeah 20% weird isolated paramilitary guys.

Best tits you've ever seen on a ballroom/ military complex.

Trump: "It's going to be the greatest ballroom and military complex combination ever built!" (Has any ballroom/military complex EVER been built?!)

This movie is that secret Millennial touchstone that we all know, but we are never sure if we all know, so we don't talk about it enough.

I don’t remember writing this line but it was a long time ago.

I love this loud white man idea that "if the politicians don't get it in gear boy oh boy I'm going to run and they'll be sorry!"

Yesterday in Detroit, someone asked Bovino if he would ever run for president. “I like the Border Patrol, I wanna be back with my team,” Bovino said, explaining he views politicians as below agents. But if politicians “don’t start doing their job,” he’d consider it.

In the old days, a campaign needed a war room full of strategists to figure out what the other side was planning. With Musk, you could just ask Grok. If anybody knows his playbook, it's the robot writing it. AI, taking jobs on both ends.

As if millions of theatre nerds suddenly cried out in joy, and were suddenly silenced. #NobodysSide

Last night the President of the United States posted a video of a tiger attacking an unwell person (who was fatally mauled shortly afterward), then an AI video of himself befriending the tiger. Remember when Howard Dean yelled weird

Greenland has become Trump's "Fake Office"* *they built a fake office for Trump's father when the dementia got bad

Trump: "Massive Oil, Gas, and Mineral Exploration is getting ready to begin in our new and beautiful Greenland!" #OurGreenland

I mean, sure. But Twitter's default experience is usually outrage bait, often amplified by Musk's algorithm. Here, you're more likely to see stills from various Lake Superior webcams because that's what you told it you wanted. I'd say that's still a pretty stark difference in user experiences

GOP consultants are all, "Let's see if you can get someone to beat the other guy half to death." while Dem consultants are all, "Let's see if we can get the other guy on a podcast where we they agree that women are women."

You know, the thing is, I had drafted this piece a month ago, and then never published it, because I thought maybe it was too mean.

You can kill as many people as you want, but you target a beautiful precious data center? The one that hosted all 40,000 Sexy Ladies For Ken Paxton accounts?

Uh oh, did someone’s website and personal account experience a big drop in activity after Ukraine hit a Russian data center?
