Really having himself a season

Big sigh (and thanks for reading!)

These three things should be a literal litmus test for any Dem running for state or federal office.

All of this exhausting Texas gerrymandering bullshit is a direct consequence of Manchin, Sinema and whoever else was hiding behind them failing to pass new voting rights legislation, enshrine non-partisan redistricting nationwide or pack the outlaw Supreme Court.

We can’t be more than a few months away from these people issuing “White job reports”

Sorry but I think we all know what the Supreme Court would do with a ruling against Trump on tariffs.

(In fairness, this is what Grubhub is basically)

I have reached a deal with my favorite falafel restaurant: they will pay a higher fee on every one of my credit card transactions, and I’ll pay more for the food.

Canceled my WaPo subscription and time to get serious about extricating myself from Amazon.

WaPo of course did not offer a way to comment on why I was canceling. Ghouls.

All the Players Jesse Chavez Has Been Traded For The all-time MLB leader in getting traded fetched some productive players

I seem to have started some kind of a baseball Substack, please clap. Here I tackle at length the players fetched in return for the all-time MLB leader in getting traded, newly retired reliever Jesse Chavez.

Release the Epstein Files not the Epstein Philes.

And yes this is a top tier issue for me as a parent of two littles.

No one is even trying to enforce traffic laws, and unfortunately that means people have correctly deduced that there is close to a zero percent chance of getting pulled over for blowing through stop signs, tailgating like total maniacs, and much, much worse.

I would no longer be dissenting respectfully.

It's wild that this guy's constantly popping up to tell us all about the horrible problems he plans on causing for the world and he's somehow not universally treated as a villain.

It is possible to have lots of thoughts about something but to choose just one of them to put on this website.

Emails like this are a 100% foolproof indicator that something I've written has been featured on the RCP front page.

If it turns out that anyone in Biden’s orbit sat on damaging Trump-Epstein stuff I am going to blow an entire fuse box.

Seems like a very high risk day for Trump to try to avert an entire weekend Epstein news cycle by doing something totally bananas at like 4 p.m.

i'd hide the client list in the methods section

Maybe You’re Hoping Elon Musk’s New Political Party Will Fracture the Republicans. About That. If the Tesla tycoon has any interesting ideas, he has yet to reveal them.

I wrote a thing about Elon's third party for @slate.com.

By all means, throw some popcorn in the microwave and hope for maximum MAGA mayhem—just don’t count on the America Party to be the pinch that wakes us up from our ongoing political nightmare.

I for one think it was cool and good that nothing was done in the last four years of Democratic control to rein in the Supreme Court, I'm glad the norm respecters won out and we're all living in a rich norm-filled paradise today.

The thing to remember about the Supreme Court is that the GOP majority was obtained by having Mitch McConnell change his own made-up confirmation rules twice in four years and is currently made up of six lifelong gutter partisans who are basically Daily Wire columnists with better job security.

Happy Foundation Day to all who celebrate

Well I don’t like any of this at all!!

Could someone please make a firm decision about what HBO is called?

Biden, of course, just rolled over and said Okee Dokee when it was painfully obvious that the ill-gotten SCOTUS majority was selectively applying its own absurd doctrine to undermine him.

Baseball quote of the year nominee.

Yeah who are these posts aimed at?
