Flaca, the Queen of the Castle, has found a sun puddle and is lazily licking her paw, then bathing behind her ear.

It's times like these, when she acts as if she's two years old, rather than twenty, that warm my heart. πŸ–€

Texas A&M likes to call itself the "Home of the 12th Man," but tonight, the 12th Man was wearing burnt orange.

The Austin crowd got loud, then louder, bothering the Ags and inspiring the Horns.

Kudos to all the Texas fans who rocked DKR tonight!

I hope Ole Miss Head Coach Lane Kiffin delays his announcement until tonight, or tomorrow, then says he's moving to Austin to take the suddenly open job at Texas.

Imagine what he could do with Arch Manning.

No matter how long I live after we get through this dark chapter, I will never get over the immorality, the amorality, the corruption, the criminality and the cruelty in service to one of the worst humans to ever walk the earth.

Freddie saw that his favorite blanket and favorite pillow were unoccupied, so he jumped onto the sofa and was asleep within 60 seconds. I envy him.

Epstein videotaped everything. If and when all the files, photos, and videos are publicly released, they're going to make the latest episode of South Park look like... well... a low-budget cartoon.

BREAKING:

The House has voted 427-1 to order the Justice Department to release the Epstein Files.

Shameless MAGA buttlicker Clay Higgins of Louisiana was the only nay vote.

Ditto. This is my favorite sport and the WC is its biggest stage. I attended all five matches in Dallas in '94.

Next year, there will be matches in both Houston and Dallas. I'll pass.

FIFA and the Trump Admin are two of the most corrupt bodies on the planet. I won't give them a dime of my money.

Donald Trump said β€œquiet piggy” to a female reporter because she dared to ask about the Epstein files, and as bad as that is, the fact that none of her colleagues defended her, is even worse.

Adelita Grijalva: "I wanted to get to work seven weeks ago, but this pint-size prick wouldn't let me!"

Now that she's been sworn in, and signed the discharge petition, let's see those Epstein files, the photos in particular!

It’s not enough to simply thank our veterans for their service.

Millions of them rely on SNAP and the ACA.

Many struggle with PTSD and worry about access to mental health services.

Today, on Veterans Day, let’s renew our commitment to keep fighting for those who fought for us.

Happy Veterans Day to all the men and women who wore the uniform! A heartfelt "thank you" for your service!

And a hearty "fuck you" to those (looking at you, Donnie Bone Spurs) who avoided service when our country was at war.

If you think the people throwing Great Gatsby-esque parties for themselves, while millions were denied their food assistance, are all of a sudden going to grow a conscience and save affordable healthcare, you clearly have not been paying attention.

Haven’t seen much of Stephen Miller after he did his big media tour promoting Republican candidates leading up to Tuesday’s elections. Hopefully they are just saving him to be the face of the Republican Party for the midterms.

I hope Sean Dunn celebrates his court acquittal by going to Subway to buy a sandwich

His speech outside court was well done:

"I believe I was protecting the rights of immigrants. E Pluribus Unum means from 'From many, one'. Every life matters, no matter where you came from."

Bet on it. After last night's blue tsunami, Stephen Miller is devising a plan to cancel the 2026 midterms.

Create a crisis, declare a national state of emergency, then shutter the polling places. It's as easy as ein, zwei, drei.

Texas Governor Greg Abbott says that after the NYC polls close he will impose a 100% tariff on anyone moving to Texas from NYC.

Governors can’t impose tariffs.

Also, Mamdani scares the crap out of these guys and I think that’s awesome.
