While the two are doubtless completely unrelated, the conjunction of an air safety tragedy and an assault on the administrative state—from freezing funding to deferred retirement offers—may well focus public attention on the necessity of competent government.

Gosh, who could have predicted violent extremism among veterans will grow as a problem? Oh, that's right: those of us who are veterans and have been constantly warning exactly this.

You can hate on “Baby it’s Cold Outside” all you want but my least favorite is “Rudolf.” It’s about an atypical being rejected by his peers until he is deemed a useful commodity by an authority figure and then lauded.
Fuck you, reindeer.

Now that we know that Elon spent a quarter billion dollars to get Trump elected, any dive into Why Harris Lost needs to start with "Because the richest man on earth bought the election and our shitty campaign finance laws just let him."

I’m not sure how this got swept under the carpet, but President Biden’s efforts to combat junk fees will likely save Americans more than $20 billion annually. 👀

If I said “if appointed Solicitor General I will never again fuck a squirrel” then the relevant question isn’t really “Huh I wonder if he will keep his word”
Donald Trump’s secretary of defense pick has made a solemn promise to quit drinking if confirmed to the position.
Hegseth Vows to Get Sober if Confirmed
The embattled Fox News host-turned-secretary of defense nominee denied ever having a drinking problem.

I'm glad Pete Hegseth has pledged not to drink if he is confirmed as Defense Secretary. So, I guess he can still sexually harass women, mismanage funds, discriminate against women service members, push for a Christian Nationalist agenda, and be a virulent Islamaphobe?
Super duper.

Every time I read about banning books, I think of this:
Reading a book with a gay character will not make you gay any more than reading a book about Einstein will make you a genius.
If you're afraid that books might change someone's thinking, you're not afraid of books — you're afraid of thinking.

Hi. It's not normal for a nominee to be Director of the FBI to have his own personal hit list of people he wants to take revenge on using the power of the fed'l govt. Do not confirm.

My current position on the Biden pardon is….are you fucking kidding me? Trump has picked a kaleidoscope of unqualified losers, criminals, and lunatics to run his government as a “dictatorship on day 1” and we need to get into the information war to stop as many as we can right damn now.
