Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara: "People have had enough. This is the third shooting in less than 3 weeks. The MPD went the entire year last year recovering about 900 guns from the street, arresting hundreds of violent offenders, and we didn't shoot anyone ... this is not sustainable."

I have a nifty Bill Clinton official presidential seal key fob somewhere around here somewhere, and I didn't have to give him my Nobel Prize to get it

There is nothing classy about Jack Daniels

The phrase "correct papers" is more likely to provoke low level ptsd in a retired professor than good mental health

Calm down, now...

Just to be clear...

Trump is bragging again about acing a cognitive test. Fortunately for him, they removed the Armenia v Albania screen

There is nothing bizarre about it if you realize market forces, including distribution through private supply chains, not state government policy, determines the energy mix. State-level ideology literally has nothing to do with it.

Nancy Mace just discovered MAGA is misogynistic. Next people who are not White might also notice another conspicuous pattern. Who knows where this leads?

Don't forget what never happened

If you hear the word "detox" and it doesn't involve dialysis, you're already off to the races

The drive to strip birthright citizenship is much more than one of Trump's anti-immigrant antics--its an attack on the Constitution and all of its protections

With all due respect... but this is a practical question. People need to mobilize--what is happening is a fledgling effort to consolidate some form of authoritarianism--in open populist warfare against the elites including the general officer corps, who they are purging

This is not 'elite' policymaking. Trump is a populist who is acting with hostility for the elites. The military, its general officer corps, the intelligence and foreign policy establishment, and most businesses hate the idea of a war. Right wing populist have replaced the old elites.

Nobody invites Lane Kiffin to parties

Don't mess with Leo

Charts the decline in the 3-day floating average of Trump support over the last month from over 44% to under 41%

Smells like Lame Duck Flambé for Thanksgiving!

Trump: the Other White Meat

Excellent explanation for why we need single-payer health care

Its called "single payer"! You know, socialism!

Ft Wayne? Nothing against the fine folks who live there

Watch out, everyone—a narcissist is never so dangerous than when he faces rejection

Decivilizing process

Wait a second... you mean we benefit from importing goods and services that we don't produce well here? And that would mean we could sell goods and services we are good at? This is revolutionary! Who knew!

Look up 'sarcasm' on Google

And you know the rule: anyone who campaigns for the Prize and loses is no longer eligible

We have those those people in Florida--mainly around Orlando --but they are not free-ranging. They are confined to reservations with names like "Disney World"

As a Floridian, the outstanding thing here is the car that patiently puts on its signal and goes slowly by the pedestrians--under no condition would that happen here--pedestrians get near a curb at their own risk
