OH MY!

Sliwa's superpower is that his particular insanity owes next to nothing to Trump.

If there was a poll about the shutdown that was like "60% of voters blame Democrats" we'd get wall to wall news "analysis" saying the Democrats must immediately capitulate or face electoral ruin, but when we have the opposite (like we do now) the media doubles down on efforts to blame Democrats

Harbaugh’s play sheet is just the Rose Garden Club menu.

But he's cool with his business being associated with Atlas? Didn't they get a crane to put his food truck in the back of one of their restaurants on Thames St?

I ignored the murder of Melissa Hortman. Here’s why I’ll be talking about the murder of Charlie Kirk all day today.

Egregiously bad reporting by the Times here. The President’s “fury” is not justification or explanation for a spew of lies and libels. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/10/u...

Our politics seems to be entering a phase of "right supremacy" where only the lives of right-wingers have value. Assassinating the leader of a state legislative body in her own damn home was business as usual, but all of America has to have a reckoning if it's a far-right online influencer.

I just learned who Charlie Kirk is. Here's why I think his murder was much different than the murder of Melissa Hortman, the attack on Paul Pelosi, or the pipe bomb that was sent to the synagogue in Pittsburgh....(1/14)

It's time to start talking as seriously about splitting Pennsylvania up as people do about statehood for DC and Puerto Rico.

Dropkick Murphys exit Punk in the Park festival over founder's Trump campaign donations Like most punk bands, Dropkick Murphys identify with the broader left-wing movement, and they haven't been shy about their opposition to Trump.

Robert Smigel's brutal takedown of the Big 4 TV networks, on SNL, is still relevant over 25 years later- especially in light of the puds at CBS/Paramount canceling Stephen Colbert. www.youtube.com/watch?v=nh6H...

I am going to get a full professorship at this center. I'm going to show Veggie Tales videos to a bunch of 19-year-olds who brought briefcases to class and ostentatiously cry for much of the running time. My salary will be paid by a grant from the Vlad Dracul Youth Education Initiative.

Eric Costello is back to having grown-man workdays.

In the struggle against antisemitism, everyone has a part to play. I am personally working against the stereotype that Jews are smarter than everyone else.

RIP Rob Roblin

I'll never forget the time when he interviewed his doppelganger during Hurricane Sandy. #Baltimore

My earliest memory of Jimmy Swaggart was as a 6 year old watching the end of his show every morning because it aired on CBS before Captain Kangaroo- which had been moved to 6AM to accommodate one of their failed morning news shows. I wondered at the time why he was always angry and shouting at me.

On the one hand a strategic pick, given that Bove may live for three or four more centuries. On the other, exposure to sunlight turns him to pile of smoldering ash, so he’ll only be able to hear cases at night.

what federal agents did to a father of three Marines while he was cutting grass in Orange County on Sunday has happened in some form daily — and deliberately — all over Los Angeles for 18 days.

at least toby keith is dead this time

Compelling pro-slavery right wingers to work on Juneteenth is actually the most woke way to celebrate Juneteenth

In order to maintain ideological diversity, I make sure that 50% of my organization's hires are Trump supporters, even though only 2% of my applicants are Trump supporters. Here's why DEI at universities must be banned.

If Tom Homan shaved his beard, put on sunglasses, and embroidered his job title on his police cosplay outfit, you wouldn’t be able to distinguish him from Larry Hogan.

Remember when his former primary opponent got lit up for her bagel selection? She was ahead of her time. www.youtube.com/watch?v=V7Nx...

And this is why Democrats cannot ignore the importance of building enthusiasm in the base. Secure the base. Drive turnout high. Show them the truth abt the effect of Trumpism on their lives. Build up and out from the base and capture as many voters as possible.Trump is vulnerable. Make the case.

A certain type of white Democrat is hellbent on not just alienating the base of the party, but ensuring that we never trust them again.

“Low information” is a deflection born of white America’s inability to cope with the fact that we know and understand this country better than they ever will.

U-Haul's slogan is “Moving Made Easier” but it’s turning into “Hate on the Move.”

Hey @UHaul.com — you better figure out how to stop renting trucks to Patriot Front, or you’re going to be known as the official moving van of white supremacists.

Jake Tapper got his start in journalism by writing gossip at the Washington City Paper.

My take on the consequences of the media's "original sin."
