Whether it's Donald Trump attacking the Pope or Barack Obama asking for Dijon mustard on a hot dog, both men shattered Washington norms.

I know this isn't actually any weirder than any other thing? But I'm so very tired of it being expected that everyone's supposed to pretend that this is normal

Okay CTA. This is a good sign.

On this day 30 years ago, The Birdcage and Fargo opened in theaters. Crazy to think we were once handed straight up classics like that.

love this thread.

whatever you think of Spanberger, the fact that her opponent ran a campaign based almost entirely on transphobia and is on track to eat shit in the biggest blowout the state has seen since 2009 is unambiguously a huge win
