I have to assume Lizza is either amping up a giant nothingburger to drive more subs or trying to bait someone into paying him for his silence. Sitting on the Nuzzi/RFK stuff is one (shameful) thing; sitting on and then teasing ANYTHING about Butler as big as he's making it sound is infinitely worse.

I want to know how many of us Googled the term in the document that was not defined. Do we all just... know what that is now, and know that RFK also knows.

It is possible there is nothing I want to see more in this world than how Mamdani handles Trump being shitty to someone in the press asking a question he dislikes.

Elon Musk may be the first person I've seen who manages to consistently stand in an evil manner. Like anyone playing a wicked vizier in a play would be told to tone it down a few notches.

Wild to me that Dem establishment can see the damage downplaying Epstein is doing to MAGA and think they have a move beyond going all-in. Trump's voters trusted him and thought he was on 'their' side; Dem voters already mistrust the establishment and they're gonna downplay a massive elite pedo ring?

I think a lot of it is Trump really, really doesn't want the vote to happen and he/Johnson have furiously tried to stop it. I'm not sure there's a productive motive here, so much as pantsing the school bully. He'll still take your lunch money tomorrow, but for one glorious moment he'll be a loser.

And yes, I know he voted against the latest CR. He didn't urge the moderates to also vote against, and he is not acting like a leader who just suffered a mutiny undercutting an important policy fight. I believe he was in on it

He isn't leading in any meaningful sense in a way that meets the moment.

It would also force Johnson to call the House back to pass it, so they could fit a lot of Epstein congressional drama in before going back to shutdown drama early next year, and if the House discharge petition passes it makes fully nuking the filibuster a lot funnier as a possibility. Not great but.

It was so good I subscribed to Seeso when they announced that was where their followup was going to be!

Then I had to buy Get Krackin' on iTunes because Seeso got cancelled before it came out because clearly nobody would actually pay money for a comedy-only streaming service.

....

Another MASSIVE vote for The Katering Show and their followup fake morning show, Get Krackin' (also on YouTube now, it looks like for both seasons.) The Kates are spectacular.

...this also reminds me I need to actually watch their Amazon show, Deadloch.
