the right really hates it when you call their planned concentration camps "concentration camps." their whole program works only if you make migrants into a scary mass of undocumented criminals coming for white families. its a lot harder when you humanize it. keep it up.

So now he's going to abrogate *signed trade deals* to impose 10% tariffs? Awesome.

Why would any country sign an agreement with the United States ever again?

This is almost impossible believe, but it now seems undeniably true: That a serving president of the United States DOES NOT UNDERSTAND what a tariff is.

It's like a football player running toward the wrong end zone. You can't believe it's happening, but it is.

Always loved this band ever since I saw them open for Michael Penn in 1990. Little did I know that I would have a connection to them decades later after taking a DNA test. My late, great aunt Arlene, who I ended being a caregiver for last year, gave Glen Phillips piano lessons and sold him a piano!

If a member of your family in the US military gets killed in Iran soon, you can console yourself by knowing that they died to distract from their Commander-in-Chief's pedophilia.

California is currently weighing a ballot initiative that would institute a one-time wealth tax on billionaires living in the state.

I think it’s a good idea.

Watch what my friend Bernie Sanders had to say.

Hugh Hefner's Widow Says Photos Of Underage Girls Found In His Scrapbooks And Journals Crystal Hefner's lawyer said they have been informed that the Hugh M. Hefner Foundation is going to digitize the photos of the women and girls.

Huh? The guy who founded Playboy had nudes of young girls? The guy who lived in a bathrobe & had blow out parties? Who would believe it? Old, saggy, wealthy white guys; is there ever enough for them? And a 60 yr age gap kinda gives it away. 🤮But she's "shocked!"

when I was a young boy dreaming of a career in cartooning, what I really hoped for was to spend somewhere between a quarter and a third of my entire career thinking about the single most stupid and venal man to ever hold office. dreams CAN come true!

I was so stressed from dealing with corrupt and incompetent local politics last night, I got a fast-food veggie burger afterwards - and had them put bacon on it.

Email from Mort Zuckerman to Epstein, saying he is doing "major editing over huge objections" apparently to favor Epstein.

Email from Mort Zuckerman to Epstein, saying he is doing "major editing over huge objections" apparently to favor Epstein.

When I was editor of US News, and Mort Zuckerman was the owner, we had our (numerous) struggles over editorial control.

Which resulted in my leaving to work at Microsoft, and having a great time there.

But Jesus, nothing like this. (Mort apparently fighting to change a story, to favor Epstein.)

Christian Nationalists are treating the Epstein files like they treat their Bibles and our Constitution: They are *ignoring* them.

LEFT: Someone who appears in the Epstein files over a million times. Epstein called him his "best friend."

RIGHT: Someone never mentioned in the Epstein files—even once. And she never met him.

So guess which one is being hauled before our corrupt, cover-upping Congress to testify about Epstein.

"We can have democracy in this country, or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we can't have both." –Justice Louis Brandeis

Words spoken many years ago that are just as relevant today.

We must continue the fight to get big money out of politics.
