"Candidates: if you have time to shake hands, you have time to stack cans."
I’ve been saying for years that part of the presidential debate should be “break down this stack of cardboard boxes”.

"This could take down Democrats, too."
I know. And I frankly wouldn't give even an itty bitty damn if it implicated every Democratic man in Congress, every Democratic hopeful for 2028 and every Democrat who has even thought about running for office.
Down with the sex predators, wherever they are.

Hey do you think the criminal president who has committed many very obvious crimes and treasons during his long wretched life will finally face some consequences for his many very obvious crimes and treasons

Might be cheaper to fly to Germany (or Europe in general) for a Lions game than to go to Ford Field.
Berlin game today. If Lions go there next year, anyone on here thinking about going?

I want to say I was a fan of the Maine oyster farmer. Sad to see that he’s clearly been disqualified.
Putting a Democrat with a Nazi tattoo in the Senate normalizes Naziism in our federal politics for a long ass time.
All these recent stories about secret Nazi group chats? Anytime that happens going forward will be met with "But Platner."
It's not a purity test. Think through the consequences.

This is the right message.
Chris Murphy: "This is a country that's falling apart because Trump is in the middle of an authoritarian takeover. We're not on the verge of an authoritarian takeover. We're in the middle of it ... I have no moral obligation to vote for a budget that literally funds the destruction of our democracy"

Increasingly we need candidates who'd be comfortable cutting a wrestling promo
Mamdani: "I just want to speak directly to the president. I will not be a mayor like Mayor Adams who will call you to stay out of jail. I won't be a disgraced governor like Andrew Cuomo who will call you to ask how to win this election. I can do those things on my own."

Yesterday, white nationalist paramilitary forces attacked another Chicago neighborhood with chemical weapons. Families and at least one infant were gassed. This morning, they are kidnapping more immigrants both here and in other metros (D.C., L.A. still being terrorized).

There are lots of great reasons not to celebrate Christopher Columbus. Many moons ago in @thenation.com I wrote about one of the big ones: that the founding legend around Columbus was fabricated out of whole cloth in the 1790s to suit the needs of American politics of the moment.
The Invention of Christopher Columbus, American Hero
How the founding fathers turned Christopher Columbus, a mediocre Italian sailor and mass murderer, into a historical icon.

a key thing about vought — and all of these guys — is that they have a totally top down and hierarchical vision of the world. they believe that the cultural changes they hate can be turned off by destroying the federal government because they can’t imagine that they emerged bottom-up in society
What he’s railing against is a profound shift in culture, status… He’s obsessed with the idea that America is controlled by a leftist “ruling elite” - but “elite” isn’t defined socio-economically or by political power, it means something like: Getting to define “real America” and who gets to belong.

I live in a small town, I love visiting and working in the cities in the Great Lakes Republic. Detroit, Chicago, Milwaukee, Cleveland, I salute your diversity with a familiarity of the culture and people that I love.
I think something we have to do more of is talk about how kickass a lot of American cities are because right now some people think they’re run by Sharia Law nudists and most of us never thought to counter that argument because it’s stupid and doesn’t make any sense
BEST BIG CITY IN THE US 9 YEARS IN A ROW.
While critics try to paint Chicago as something to fear, the rest of the world knows the truth — this is the best big city in America.
