Thanks, I Hate It

Can't wait to see what he does next!

I feel like I am taking crazy pills - the Thanksgiving airport meltdowns would have driven Trump's approval sub-30.

Hard disagree - a Thanksgiving travel-pocolypse would be Trump's Katrina.

Grifters gonna grift.

I still think people are discounting the distorting impacts of social media - instagram in particular on this issue. No matter how good or bad someone has it, they can still be bombarded 24/7 with others who have it better and in some cases much better.

Happy almost thanksgiving!

I wonder what Alito’s burner is on truth social. I’m going with @appealtoheaven1776

So it turns out... the US air travel system was incredibly, deeply dependent on federal funding to just run day-to-day all this time, to the benefit of private airline shareholders, when everyone thinks that state-run trains are leeching off the government. Weird!

Putting the military dudes who orchestrated the dca helicopter-commercial plane crash in charge. What could go wrong?

It would be hard to pick one book but everyone on earth should definitely read the “legal issues” section of Russell brands Wikipedia page.

Seems like his press shop is on it:

This has galaxy brain Fetterman written all over it.

Not sure if I would be more surprised that Fetterman can't count to 10 or that he thought he could bluff the vote count with the other moderates sitting right there.

What an asshole.

Is that a touchback? Feels like it should be a game over automatic win.

Has anyone told Jesus that Christians aren't allowed to interact with prostitutes?

Are unmarried Christians not allowed to like hot chicks?

Weird how those leaks stopped after Trump's personal defense attorney met with Maxwell.

Critical context is that this all happened a few weeks after someone started leaking Trump-Epstein info to the WSJ....

Honestly, sounds like it could have been worse. (I'm sorry - that sucks!)

Rick Scott: Totally agree, @POTUS! I'm writing the bill right now. We must stop taxpayer money from going to insurance companies and instead give it directly to Americans in HSA-style accounts and let them buy the health care they want. This will increase competition & drive down costs.

Rick Scott is right, government funding for health insurance is such a scam.

Google “Rick Scott Medicare fraud” to learn more about this important issue

It's a handout to banks (tons more in interest payments) and also a massive bailout for realtors and mortgage brokers who are getting crushed by low sales volumes.

The (awful) politics of it actually make a lot of sense, but any buyer who signs up for this is dumber than dumb.

The married "conservative Christian" DHS Secretary openly fucking her principal deputy who is also the one who is actually running the department is no longer a story?

Politics aside, it seems like maybe there could be some HR or foreign intelligence issues with this?

The difference between paying rent and paying on a 50-year mortgage is.... a shitload of maintenance costs and risk. But in both cases you have essentially no equity!

Do reporters ask Noem's husband for comment before they run stories on the Noem-Lewandowski fuck planes or nah?

Very funny to simultaneously learn that this random name rattling around from 9th grade biology was still kicking until last week and that he was also a huge piece of shit. Onward and upward.

Seems more likely that something actually important with the government is going to break sooner or later. Hopefully, it's just a thanksgiving travel-pocolypse and not something that actually gets people killed.

They needed two, so that they'd still have one when the other one is being fumigated.

Nah - you should make this a story that Ross Douthat has to comment on.

Odds that Nick Fuentes has JD Vance's cell number? Let's find out!
