Shooting a man in the back while he’s delivering someone’s lunch is a bigger crime than overstaying your visa.

It’s common for engaged parents not to notice their kids are far behind. Parents want to believe the best about their children, and don’t have a good sense of grade level expectations. Kids come home and brag about being good at something and no one realizes they’re supposed to be ahead of that.

Donald Trump is yelling into the wind on birthright citizenship. If Republicans in Congress take this on his behalf, know that they’ve taken a position based on racism.

Alan Moore making his point clear in the dedication at the beginning of I Hear A New World.

The fastest way to de-escalate political tensions is for the President of the United States to stop calling half of the country "traitors" and "enemies of America." Agreed?

I love sports, I really do. But fuck me I am so sick of seeing all the sports betting shit be like 90% of the advertisements, it almost makes me wanna stop watching sports. As an aside, Fanatics is horrible, they are one of the worst things to ever happen to sports.

Okay fine, in this one instance you do have to hand it to Fox News

It turns out when you publicly signal that you are courting a different audience but don’t have good ideas to attract them, you lose some of the old audience without adding the new one. There’s no capitulation bump.

Beshear: We are building affordable housing in rural America. It looks like the average utility bill for each of those houses is going to be about $50 a month because we’re using solar panels. We’re embracing different parts of green energy in Appalachia.

Your periodic reminder that if you are an elected Republican in Washington you can get respect and national attention by VERY OCCASIONALLY not doing a terrible job. Tilis is on TV right now because he briefly did what Dems do all the time.

I’m sorry, doing this in a baseball cap sold by your campaign store is deliberately disrespecting the dead.

Having some of the most thoroughly redacted thoughts of my life.

AYMAN: Can you tell me where Iran killed thousands of Americans in America? ANNA PAULINA LUNA: I said they are responsible for thousands of Americans being killed AYMAN: Where? LUNA: Are you serious right now? AYMAN: It seems like you don't want to have a good faith conversation

"The United States would not deliberately target a school" -- Marco Rubio

Gov. Andy Beshear on the State of the Union address: "Trump claimed a golden age for our economy. Maybe it's a golden age for his family, which is profiting off the presidency…If you talk to most American families they'll say they're either treading water or drowning."

I have heard about DHS literally every day for over a year

Breaking News: The mother of the “Today” show host Savannah Guthrie went missing in Arizona. Her disappearance is being investigated as a crime.

The only president to keep the Patriots out of the Super Bowl this century? Joe Biden

Walz: "To Americans who are watching this, I've got a question for you: What side do you want to be on? The side of an all powerful federal govt that can kill, injury, menace, & kidnap its citizens off the streets? Or on the side of a nurse at the VA hospital who died bearing witness to such govt?"

For at least a decade the stupidest, most frivolous columnist in America.

Worried about getting snatched by ICE? These sheet pan brisket tacos will make you feel like you’re in San Antonio.

ICE is abducting children the right way. by Ezra Klein

Whether it was Jimmy Carter going to Florida to help rebuild houses after a storm or Ted Cruz going to Florida to flee storms in his home state of Texas, leaders from both parties have dealt with storms in unusual ways.

Olivia Nuzzi needs an editor. I would be happy to meet her for a private session. by Larry Summers

Boom goes the dynamite!

The Free Press: To understand the appeal of democratic socialism, we turned to Peter Thiel

I just keep thinking “Elon Musk just got a trillion dollars”

Cook their asses, Hakeem!

"Oh but he's in deep blue NYC! It's easy for him to defend trans folks!" Andy Beshear has been doing it for years now and got re-elected in Mich McConnell's Kentucky. This is the bare minimum requirement going forward. You don't get my vote if you don't defend my family member's right to exist.

No coincidence rising stars in Dems, including KY governor Beshear & TX state rep Talarico played key roles battling vouchers in their states. Before Tim Walz was muffled by Harris campaign, we heard him articulate a prairie populist case for public ed. educationwars.substack.com/p/missing-th...

Happy Juneteenth, Illinois. It may seem the pace of progress is heartbreakingly slow, but our state has long led the nation in the fight for equality — and we won't stop now. Today, we recommit to building a brighter, fairer future for all.

Mike Johnson blatantly lies on Meet the Press: "You can underscore what I'm about to tell you -- there are no Medicaid cuts in the big beautiful bill ... what we're doing is an important, and frankly heroic thing."

This is their grift. Trump does it too. Someone else in the regime does something visibly corrupt, illegal, or destructive. The others profess ignorance so they don’t have to respond to it or be accountable. But they are, in fact, accountable for creating this disaster. Every single one of them.

I get so tired if having to say, "If Joe Biden had done this...."

Nailed it.

Q: There are many people who fit the criteria of fleeing persecution. Afghans for example. But they're being denied refugee status. So why such an exception for the Afrikaners? TRUMP ADMIN OFFICIAL: One of the criteria is making sure they can be assimilated easily into our country

there’s a style of reporting that’s basically like “the left hasn’t been duped by the transparently bad faith framing of the right, but I, the reporter, very much have.”
