Well then. Nothing to see here folks. We've investigated ourselves and determined we were not responsible.

If some rich Dem donors simply offered unlimited use of their private jets to Dem Senators during the shutdown, I think they could have held out longer. But God forbid they personally suffer any indignities in travel. As Mace so eloquently stated a few days ago.

Russian state media are today alleging that a Bellingcat reporter was involved in an attempt to hijack a Russian fighter plane.

We would like to make clear that Bellingcat had absolutely no involvement in the alleged activities and the accusations towards us are entirely false.

Let White People Be the Face of Trump’s Hunger Crisis—Opinion
Black suffering has never moved this country to act. Maybe seeing white families skip meals will finally make us admit that food insecurity isn’t fate—it’s a choice politicians keep making.

"The last time we saw Bond, he was poisoned and blown to smithereens – how will they get past the fact he is dead?...If I was asked tomorrow to write the script, I wouldn't be able to do it. Where would you start? You can't have him waking up in the shower and saying it was all a dream."

I know I am old because I do not understand what a food influencer is and that sounds like a marketing term invented to redescribe the word "chef." Like turning janitor into "sanitation specialist."

"I'm not a cook, I'm a food influencer." Like a wizard of foodmancy.

This is such a cursed headline. No. I refuse to accept that the race in 2028 will be between Newsom and Vance. I simply refuse to be in such a state of despair as to believe such a bleak outcome.
