Whether it's Donald Trump nominating a coke-addled, grifting, bribe-seeking would-be family member who filled her ambassador's residence with gaudy portraits of herself or Bill Clinton nominating a gay man, both presidents drew condemnation of their ambassador nominees.
Donald Trump has destroyed the economy, helped Vladimir Putin murder thousands of Ukrainians, lost a war to Iran, and ushered in a new era of unprecedented corruption. But one of the kids on Odd Squad looks gender-fluid to me. I have never felt more politically homeless.
"Jon Ossoff, my advice to him is, if you start calling your political opponents Nazis, maybe it's time to shut up. That's just not what we do here in this country." -- David Brooks, this evening. Remember, Brooks still gets very handsomely rewarded by the fossilized media for saying shit like this
Amid ballooning inflation and corruption, it's getting harder and harder to find MAGA diehards in the diners of Trump country. But after much effort, we did. Here are their personal stories, their opinions, and what Democrats must do to understand them.
Gobsmacked by the elite levels of not knowing ball in the Senate today, thinking an NBA team is called the Hawkeyes then, refusing to Google it, then accusing a guy of treason because you didn’t know the Iowa Lady Hawkeyes aren’t in the NBA. Somehow I don’t trust these people to Save Girls Sports.
Sometimes you can’t predict the future, and other times you see with blinding clarity that Rahm will bomb in the first debate, say 10 dumb things about reaching across the aisle, poll at one percent, get dunked on relentlessly, drop out, and run for senate as a centrist Republican.
tired: throwing a deep shot because the opponent went offsides and you know you have a free play
wired: targeting the QB because the offense committed holding and you know it offsets
incredible metaphor for the broadcast to go immediately from “we’re told the president should not impact headset communications” to “ABC’s audio sounds like an emergency broadcast from 1936”
LOL -- The White House pool is boycotting Trump, but Real America's Voice is trying to fill in the gap. Unfortunately they haven't yet figured out how microphones work so Trump is still yelling into the void.
First, Trump banned independent news from the White House.
Now, he's launching what is quite literally state-run TV to try drowning out the fact that he and his corrupt administration are failing the American people.
This is truly autocratic behavior from a failed President.
🧵Lauren Boebert had sex with three of her staffers. Two of them were women. Her sex partners were Clarisse Navarro, Jeffrey Small and Raven Finnegan. Navarro's husband Jace Ratzlaff: "I assumed this would eventually surface. I’ll have no further comment on this topic.”
Your regular reminder: If the Russians stop fighting, the war ends. If the Ukrainians stop fighting, their land will be occupied, their leaders will be killed, their history and language will be erased, their children will be kidnapped to serve Russia.
This game is on Matt LaFleur. Period.
This OL wasn’t prepared. He played WAY too conservative on early downs and off quick changes.
They should have buried this team and they’re going to lose just like they did in the playoffs.
ESPN had Ted Cruz on 'College GameDay' in a conversation with Rece Davis for nearly 10 minutes.
Cruz was heavily booed by the crowd -- and heard "Ted, you suck!" chants -- in Austin.

huh you’d think he’d have mentioned this during the phone interview he did that day with a local news station, when he said he watched the towers fall from trump tower and then bragged like a fucking psycho that another building of his was now the tallest building in the manhattan skyline
Trump claims he was basically lifted out of the rubble on 9/11: "Two fireman, big strong guys, they grabbed me under the arms -- 'got to get our of here!' -- and they literally lifted me up, and they started running with me."
