Did you hear about Kristi Noem and her Blankie? #KristiNoem

Swalwell: ICE agents shot Alex Pretti and Renee Good. And the only person in the world who has been held accountable by DHS is the pilot who somehow forgot to move Kristi Noem’s blankie.

Gotta love those all American Christian family values types

Jeffrey Epstein's December 20, 2016 email to Bill Gates: "come to visit the island. new administration people visiting."

What was the upcoming administration in December2016? Oh!

This may well be the gold standard example of past exonerative tense. Imagine twisting yourself into this many pretzels to avoid saying this border patrol officer was extorting his undocumented niece for sex.

"Moderna's CEO announced the company will no longer invest in new Phase 3 vaccine trials for infectious diseases: 'You cannot make a return on investment if you don't have access to the U.S. market. Vaccines for Epstein-Barr virus, herpes, and shingles have been shelved.” 9:12 AM Feb 12, 2026 604.8K Views

In terms of what cures are being lost:

- Epstein-Barr virus is perhaps the major trigger for multiple sclerosis
- herpes simplex virus causes cold sores, genital herpes, infections in babies, deadly meningitis
- shingles virus causes an intensely painful disease

Sure, child sex trafficking is bad.

But did you know the Dow is doing well?

In other words, Trump's approval is in the toilet and Gallup didn't want to get sued for billions of dollars because they told everyone he's about as popular as a thrombosed hemorrhoid. digg.com/politics/TB5...

No one who has ever been grossed out by Victoria's Secret's marketing to little girls will be the least bit surprised by his involvement in child trafficking--though maybe even MORE grossed out.

Victoria’s Secret always gave me the heebie-jeebies, especially it’s products marketed to little girls. Boy does this put those items in perspective!

I always refused to step foot in Victoria’s Secret. The place gave me the heebie-jeebies. Likewise, I particularly hated the products marketed to little girls. Knowing more about the store’s CEO….OMFG!

Apparently there was some big-ass concert yesterday?

Signature content for both of them.

I disapprove of gerrymandering on principle, but then I also disapprove of wildfires; sometimes you have to fight fire with fire.

Good Q @SarahKSilvermam

Seriously, y'all, if you love books and smart reviewing, subscribe to Ron Charles's Substack!
Also, Jeff Bezos sucks.

#booksky

Totally on brand to fire a book critic. At least it's now possible to cut all ties to Bezos, so there's that silver lining. Doesn't help your income any, of course. Disgusting.

WAPO's firing of their #book critic is absolutely on-brand in an era that despises intellect or information and especially can't abide reading and books. Reading builds empathy and compassion. The current administration, aided and abetted by Jeff Bezos and his ilk, has declared war on empathy.

This is really hard to watch, but so important to watch.

No doubt she is “concerned.” C’mon, Maine, in November, give her a lot more reason to be concerned—but in private life.

I would resubcribe in a heartbeat if someone else--responsible and principled--bought the paper. But not until.
