If Cadet Bonespurs were an average citizen, he'd be in the memory care unit of an assisted living facility

Minus the last sentence (clearly laws are being broken), I've been saying this for years.

Before COVID there was an outbreak of grandparent deaths at exam time.

After COVID there is an outbreak of internet failures for every exam.

Always tackling the hot button issues.
Is it ‘soccer’ or ‘football?’ President Trump wants to rename the NFL
The President said "it really doesn't make sense" to call American football by that name.

Can someone explain to me why BYU isn't even in the conversation for who makes the CFP?

Thanks to AI I no longer know who my good students are.

This is EXACTLY right
The relentlessly opportunistic Marjorie Taylor Greene hasn't had a change of heart, much less politics. She is just literate enough to read the writing on the wall. She knows that Trump is damaged goods now. So she may have taken to singing like a bird, but she's really just a canary in a coal mine.

They are drug dealers who need to continually increase the potency of their product in order to keep their clients hooked.

It can end only with violence.

I thought foreign nations paid the tariff.

If so, how will lowering tariffs help grocery prices?

Guessing no reporter will ever ask these questions

I've had the same thought
Did anyone spot moving vans outside the White House recently that could have been used to remove precious, historic furniture, mantel pieces, fixtures, chandeliers, lamps, and portraits from the East Wing to safety?

It is the exact same excuse Hitler used to justify the Anschluss, the seizure of the Sudetenland, and going to war with Poland.
Witkoff is an embarrassment to our nation and humanity
🥴🤡Trump envoy Witkoff pressed the Ukrainian delegation on handing over Donetsk region to Russia during a meeting on Friday, - WP.

He used the Kremlin's key argument that the region is predominantly Russian-speaking.

This is Antifa. Which, I guess, makes Republicans Profa.

I've thought this since the day Cadet Bonespurs was re-elected.

It's why they're so brazen about their criminality: they presume they'll be in power forever and, if they're not, they'll burn it all down on their way out the door.

Yet another parallel to the Nazis.
Whatever else you think of him, I don't think he is insincere about this stuff, and it should be recognized as extraordinary that he, Pritzker, and other governors are talking about the federal government in these terms. It's not normal political rhetoric, it's the language of existential emergency.
Newsom: "I fear that we will not have an election in 2028 -- I really mean that in the core of my soul -- unless we wake up to the code red, what's happening in this country, and we wake up soberly to how serious this moment is."

Yet another reason to hate the Yankees
The night after the murder of Melissa Hortman, the Democratic legislator in Minnesota, the Yankees were at the Red Sox and neither team requested a moment of silence.

For an actual public servant.

Who we choose to hold a moment of silence for and who we do not are silences that speak volumes.

Karma is a bitch
Both of the co-founders of Turning Point USA died from things that were preventable, but which they mocked and urged this nation to ignore. Bill Montgomery was killed in 2020 by COVID and Charlie Kirk was killed in 2025 by gun violence.
