New reality TV show idea called “Incel Island” where we put Nick Shirley and Nick Fuentes together competing to see who can get laid first. The twist is they’re the only two people on the island.

I got this one right. Admittedly kind of a softball.
“Why was Trump suddenly interested in allegations of fraud under investigation for years? If you think it’s because some Somali Americans have been involved and Trump wants to foment racist and anti-immigrant hatred… you’re absolutely right.”
Fraud is a national problem, and cases in Minnesota have been under federal and state investigation for years. So why is it suddenly a national issue?
It's a case study in the power of the right's propaganda machine.

I wholeheartedly encourage Trump to sleep less and overdose on aspirin.
In which I learned the president is taking 4x the recommended dose of aspirin, daily, because he wants to have nice, thin blood.
In which the President decides to call and chat on the record with a newspaper he’s suing for a billion dollars, for libel. (gift link)

This is not how a normal Justice Department talks about an ongoing investigation—or about putative targets and their uncharged conduct.
