I like the idea that Hutts are like any immigrant family and Jabba refuses to speak anything but Huttese at home and his kids are like jacked zoomers that are a full foot taller than him and only speak Huttese specifically when explaining how the Samsung remote works on the phone.

LEFT: 1960s Robert Mueller, a wounded and highly decorated soldier in Vietnam. RIGHT: 1960s Donald Trump, a draft dodger at reform school, not athletic enough to make the team so picking up jock straps as “staff.”

The Epstein files on the DOJ website allow you to highlight the redacted text, copy it, and paste it into another document, which reveals what was hidden. You can also press Ctrl+F and search for “Trump ” (with a space) to see his name appear more than 600 times. #OpDeathEaters

Last Thursday, Speaker Destin Hall told a reporter “ICE and CBP have a difficult job… we just ask that they come back.” We just didn’t know he meant Thanksgiving week.

Saddened to hear of the passing of Shawn Clark, Appalachian State grad & App’s former head football coach. We had classes together during undergrad & found ourselves at the same functions on several occasions. Liked him immediately. Shawn was a good football coach, and an even better person.

I would love to be part of the conversation on MSNBC related to the Kimmel story and it's chilling effects on first amendment, but unfortunately I was terminated by MSNBC for stating that "hateful thoughts lead to hateful words which lead to hateful actions".

Stephen Colbert: “Tonight we’re all Jimmy Kimmel…. With an autocrat, you can’t give an inch. If ABC thinks that this is going to satisfy the regime, they are woefully naive, and clearly they've never read The Children's Book If You Give a Mouse A Kimmel.”

Exclusive: CDC Director Susan Monarez met with its vaccine-focused center to talk about yesterday’s shooting. I listened to a recording. Scientists and officials are shaken & pointing fingers at RFK Jr. Many said his vilification and misinfo turned them into targets. www.msnbc.com/opinion/anal...

Gutfeld: “We need to learn from the blacks. The way they were able to remove the power from the n-word word by using it. So from now on it’s: What up, my Nazi? Hey, what up, my Nazi? Hey, what's hanging, my Nazi?” Kennedy: “Nazi, please!” Gutfeld: “Thank God you did a hard ‘i’ there.”
