If actionable evidence does emerge that Trump is a child rapist and is forced from office, all those covering for him now will spend the rest of their lives making excuses that not even MAGA will buy. Ostracization from society, jobs, etc., is their fate. They'll do anything to prevent that.

Matt Yglesias QT'ing Corey Walker I didn’t rejoice at her cancellation and got cancelled myself at roughly the same time, but I am sincerely jealous that no regime-aligned billionaire has even fit to curry favor with the Trump administration by giving me a huge sum of money. https://x.com/mattyglesias/status/1975375120123478491 Quote Corey Walker @CoreyWriting · 16h The vitriol against Bari Weiss is just thinly-veiled jealousy by people who rejoiced at "cancelling" her in 2020 and are furious she managed to get fabulously wealthy in an infamously brutal and low-paying industry.

As one of the countless people *actually* cancelled by Bari Weiss, via her vast favor-trading networks of fellow nepotistic gatekeepers in media and publishing, I think both of these asinine dipshits should go fuck themselves.

Reactionaries pissed about seeing themselves accurately portrayed on screen and dislike it. Boo-fucking-hoo.

Get ready to speak Elderly Interception, my dear Bengals fans

Racism and misogyny are his factory settings that he defaults to when even slightly challenged

Time to get up and go to work to zip-tie toddlers, tear gas peaceful unarmed protesters, and arrest American citizens for looking vaguely different and not respecting my menacing Norse tattoos. Because I am one of the good guys! For the Fatherland! To protect the purity of our blood!

She’s left us no choice. It’s time for Isaac Chotiner to interview Bari Weiss.

Show the entire world what Henry Ford actually thought of Jews and of organized labor and how he treated Edsel

This is great and better articulates what's been on my mind since seeing OBAA on Saturday night. So thank you.

Also:
1. Lockjaw could be Bigfoot's son
2. You have a fine last name despite the slight patronymic difference.

How long before we get the "Imperial Boomerang by Wham-O Inc." on the shelves of Target and relentless algorithmic Instagram ads?

Yes!

"I wish your loved the pure blood of the Fatherland as much as you hate the Führer!"

Definitely do not give the troops any backpay because history has shown that fucking over soldiers is very good for a regime's long-term viability. Excellent stuff, Mister Speaker man.

Andy Borowitz has the monopoly on insufferable New Yorker

These two things are of a piece, even if the motivations and details differ.

Trump’s justification for his authoritarian crackdown is an America that doesn’t exist.

As a former Florida Man who graduated from Jacksonville's Terry Parker High School, the most Jacksonville of Jacksonville high schools in 1991-92, and as a Jaguars-watcher during the Browns hiatus of 1996-98, I approve of this HamNo blog entry.

As basic question from an ex-police reporter: Can some of our journalists detail the training regimen all these new federal agents receive? The lethal incompetence involving use of force and perameters of the 4A suggests they are just handed guns, masks and badges and told to go fuck people up.

"Mr. Andreeseen, I'd love to measure your skull with my Williams Sonoma calipers one day. The shape is simply exquisite and obviously the correct proportions for a handsome genius and not at all a terrifying hard-boiled egg."

This is the life of a Browns fan since 1999, for on- and off-field experiences, and I am in no way being glib or exaggerating. There's an entire textbook waiting to be written on the business of this extremely cursed franchise's insane bullshit. It just never fucking ends.

Me on any NFL Sunday when the Cleveland Browns are causing its fans such unnatural humiliation and pain.

What this was, it is blocked now

Aside: $65K in Old Town Key West means you have four roommates and work bartending shifts twice a day, and still are in subtropical squalor. Or you live off the golf course on Stock Island.

Every under-center QB in history has had this happen to them -- usually feet get stepped on/entangled by/with the center or a pulling guard -- but getting up and immediately scoring is the ultimate jackpot you can only dream off, especially on national TV. Ben Johnson installing this tonight in CHI.

Did Abbott have a formation on standby for this, already kitted out? Has anyone ID'd the unit? Is it a some composite Frankenstein thing?

I listen to none, subscribe to none. Is that weird in Q4 2025? Occasionally I'll find a one-off for a current fixation to listen to while walking, and it's always about literature, authors, writing processes.

I suppose the countdown clock has begun ticking on near outer-ring MAGA influencers saying CBS News is now "too Jewish" and in six months Trump will be posting at 3 am about the network being run by "globalists like you wouldn't believe, all woke and totally 4s and 5s in the looks department. SAD."
