During the last election, I said that the bisesquicentennial would be a major moment to be controlled by whoever held the White House that year. 2026 means that whoever stands for that 250th anniversary will set the future for our nation. In 1976, we were still healing. Now? We're just bullies.

"Why doesn't anyone realize that..."
"Nobody is talking about this amazing new item that the 'x' industry doesn't want you to know about"
"I was shocked when I saw how this product changed my life."
(said in an artificial voice)
No. I will not buy it. Whatever it is. Even if it WOULD save my life.

Yeah, one kicked your traitorous asses back in '65

"[W]e have the strongest, most powerful, most lethal, and most prepared military on the planet. That is true full stop. Nobody can touch us. It’s not even close." - Sec. of Chickenhawking.

So...then. (scratches head) Why the fuck are you so desperate to change it?

I really thought that if a sitting Secretary of State drew all the big brass into one room to tell them to obey the PRESIDENT over the CONSTITUTION, he'd be locked out of his office before he left the stage. Imagine Fox's entire week if Obama tried this shit.

The future will not see MAGA as Nazism 2.0 any more than we see Trump as a natural extension of Nixon or Bush II.

Trump will not show up one morning in a Nazi uniform. He is not a Nazi. He is MAGA. People around him will begin to take on his look and style. Long, red ties and expensive suits that are a little too big here and a little too small there. They will adopt their own image and brand.

I would rather watch two men holding hands with each other than two men holding guns on one another.

Nothing reminds me of Facebook's relevance more than a weather warning that shows up in my feed days after the event has passed. It can pretend to find hate speech but can't fucking deliver storm warnings in a timely manner.

Nextel and Sinclair stations are sustained by local businesses. If they block Kimmel in your area and you don’t like it, let those businesses know you’re happy to patronize their competitors.

Oh FUCK YOU #AlienEarth. I am sick of shows that half-ass a story so they can drag it out into a second season. I hate season finales that just end up being Act 1 of some unwritten, unguaranteed next season.

Hey, #lunchables? Your "Stop Hitting Yourself" spot is the most annoying advertisement I've seen in a long time. Watching "Alien: Earth" I have to sit through your unskippable shit every break and I am NOT your target demo. I want the xenomorph to eat both of those kids.

Fun Fact: The Rapture DID happen today, but the standards were much higher than anyone thought. Oops.

No, I'm not interested in seeing all your Word Game shares. However, they are preferable to seeing just one picture of our demented and evil President.

Leading to humanity's last recorded complaint to ChatGPT being ripped straight from "Far Out Space Nuts."

We grew up afraid that artificial intelligence would grow to outthink humans and destroy the infection of us from the planet. In reality, that decision might be made when ChatGPT is asked to order a hot lunch for the President, but orders a nuclear launch instead.

I am just cynical enough at this point that I think boycotts are pranks led by one giant corporation to get people so pissed off they make the competition lose customers or stock value for a short time. You know, little tweaks between obscenely rich people.

This is the world you voted for your children to inherit. Congratulations. You played yourselves.

We are entering an age where all news reports are going to identify the politics of any violent criminal suspects like they do politicians. It'll be bad when they just add a parenthetical shorthand for brevity (LW) (RW) (Anrcst)

Based on the coverage, I don't know if Kimmel was fired or suspended, or if his show was canceled or put on hiatus. I don't know if this is a direct deal between ABC/Disney and the FCC for some fed approval or if there was some real line crossed by the show about Charlie Kirk.

Yes. If you undergo any procedure to enhance your appearance, it is gender-affirming care. You want to look better than what your God chose to make you and subscribe to a common standard of a pleasing human aesthetic; you are undertaking gender-affirming care. Boob job. Viagra. Rogaine. Braces.

On a parallel Earth, Rachel Maddow was the one killed in a public appearance and the right is still blaming the extreme left for inciting violence. And every night, Jesse Watters is on the air condemning the liberal left's disgusting attempts to silence conservative patriots for their criticism.

“CHRISTIAN MARTYR” they have started calling him.

Jesse Watters wishes he had Kirk’s audience. Instead he possesses the same angry, pedantic, self-righteous skill of a freshman poli-sci student writing a college newspaper op-ed piece.
