Ok. The scariest part of this is that Trump is going to Iowa for a victory lap, a state that has zero to do with Independence Day but a lot to do with nominating a presidential candidate
This is literally the first moment I've taken Trump's third term stuff seriously

Hey, look. Trump finally found someone who thinks it's legal to accept the Qatari plane
Unsurprisingly, it turns out to be the guy who worked as Rumsfeld's chief speechwriter while the US military was torturing people
If the torture apologist war criminal is the only guy saying it's legal ...

Just a little bit of change for a headline in 1933: "As Hitler attacks 'rootless bankers,' some see an unmistakable message of racism.

The headline basically is: "Trump is burning down the country. Rather than explain how, we headed to an Ohio diner"

A big ok boomer to Maureen Dowd
Dowd, who tried to sink Gore and Obama as too effeminate and Hillary Clinton as too manly is going after tech bros as "the bitchiest, weirdest mathletes in history."
I hate tech bros as much as anybody, but Dowd appears stuck in Revenge of the Nerds-era stereotyping

The good thing is that even when George Will is on your side, you can still hate him.
Will says sexual assault accusations are "alcohol-fueled sexual rowdiness" and accusations of wife beating are "past loutishness," but he opposes Hegseth anyway.
