I’d like to solve the puzzle … but I can’t just yet.

What a fucking disgrace.

YouTube video by The Telegraph Trump tells female reporter: ‘quiet, piggy’

A reporter asks Trump a question about Epstein on Air Force One and he responds by admonishing her, "Quiet, quiet piggy." And the rest of the press corps says nothing. m.youtube.com/shorts/1p08E...

Mamdani wins.

Abigail Spanberger (D), who gave up her congressional seat to make the race, has been elected governor of Virginia. She defeats Lt. Gov. Winsome Earle-Sears (R), a strong defender of President Trump.

Tonight's Election Day poll closing times (all times Eastern):

Virginia (gov, lt. gov, atty gen, House of Delegates): 7:00
New Jersey (gov, Assembly): 8:00
New York City (mayor): 9:00
California Prop. 50 (redistricting): 11:00 (8 pm West Coast time)

The MLB league championship games both feature hard luck teams who are nonetheless easy to root for. The Seattle Mariners (playing the Blue Jays tonight) have never been to the World Series. The Milwaukee Brewers (playing the Dodgers tomorrow) have been to the big dance only once, in 1982, and lost

Today’s choices:
Foreign policy/government competence — Canada
Baseball — New York Yankees

Sadly, it’s an America that no longer exists.

Please stop . Please, my dear friends, please please NEVER start a post with “I never thought I would agree” with Fucker Carlson, or with Marjorie Taliban Greene or Charlie Kirk or any monster of that kind. Don’t fall for it. I don’t care if Laura Loomer likes puppies. Don’t fall into that trap.

If there’s one thing Trimp has shown us, there is absolutely no connection between getting awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom and be deserving of the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

Oh fuck off.

Netanyahu does whatever he wants. Putin does whatever he wants. Trimp does whatever he wants. Nothing, nobody, stops them. It is frightening and alarming and terrifying and it just continues.

I’ve seen this in several different places, and all I can say is that I wish I came up with it first; it’s brilliant. Anyway … RFK Jr.’s wife, the actress Cheryl Hines, should now be referred to as the Marvelous Mrs. Measles.

Republican Sen. Joni Ernst won't seek re-election in Iowa in 2026 The two-term Republican had faced criticism from the right for wavering over Trump’s pick of Pete Hegseth to lead the Defense Department. She was first elected to the Senate in 2014.

Here’s a shocker: sources say Iowa Republican Sen. Joni Ernst will NOT seek reelection next year. www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...

The only thing he's grabbed that hasn't sued him.

I used to think that until Trimp started forcing out longtime respected nonpartisan military leaders and replacing them with his own stormtroopers.

A year to go but I agree.

No accountability for anything. The courts are in his pocket. Congress is in his pocket. They’re all scared shitless of him. He lies and lies and lies and gets away with everything. I hated the thought of a military coup in “Seven Days in May” but now I’m not so sure.

Kamala Harris says she will not run for governor of California next year. Meanwhile, the last vice president to run for president, lose, and then seek the California governorship? Richard Nixon, 1962.

Oh yeah, they’re really capable of shame.

By a Republican House? That’s a good one.

By a Republican Congress? We’ve got a long way to go before impeachment (Dems win the House in ‘26) and removal (unlikely).

How about they win the House first? And what would an impeachment do? Embarrass Bove? He is beyond shame.

Not sure what the point is anymore. The whole thing is a freaking joke. At least George W. knew that Harriet Miers was a mistake. Why not put Barron on the court next? Where were the profiles in courage everyone saw in Thom Tillis and Mitch McConnell? The whole process is just bullshit.

The thought that Justice Department lawyers, all of whom owe their loyalty not to the Constitution but to Trimp, are meeting privately with Ghislaine Maxwell is absolutely astonishing.

Epstein, Colbert, tariffs, and how everything is Obamabidenhillary’s fault. Tomorrow (Thursday) on WOSU Public Media’s “All Sides,” a full hour from 10-11 am Eastern.

The New York Daily News, 56 years ago today. I love the p.s. on the bottom of the page.

YouTube video by amstepheninlondon Connie Francis : Nixon's The One

Connie Francis, the pop singer from the ‘50s whose most romantic song, by far, was “Nixon’s the One!,” died today. She was 87.
