Muslims didn’t storm the Capitol on January 6, try to steal an election, or overthrow our government. White Christian nationalists, racist militia groups, and rabid Trump supporters did. We need to stop pretending the biggest terrorist threat to this country is coming from somewhere else.

Note to Tommy: Find out the academic credentials of the person you think you can outsmart BEFORE you end up humiliating yourself.

Elon Musk is spending $158 million on Ken Paxton’s campaign. That’s more than the Make-A-Wish Foundation's annual revenue. Some people grant wishes to kids fighting serious illnesses. Other people bankroll a crooked pol whose make-a-wish was partying in Dubai with 2 fugitives from fraud charges.

Aaron, can you go with me to my next therapy session, or at least zoom in? My therapist thinks I’m making things up.

Zacharia: "I am looking forward to walking in & working for President Trump. This job is not about me, it's about him... his policies are the most effective, most exciting. He's the most energetic, intense president we've ever seen. When I was there yesterday he showed me where the ballroom will be"
