Writer. Mope. I don't know what the hell you're talking about, Lucy, and I want you to shut up.
I wonder if there were millions of people in other countries for whom those immigration restrictions were a death sentence in those 40 years in particular. I guess there's no way to know.
VP JD Vance is now fully embracing the 1924 racist National Origins Act to justify his administration’s white nationalist immigration policy.

You traded Bernie for another outfielder, of which the team already has a surplus?
The #RedSox today announced the following roster moves:

Well. That's a new one.
Time for the Nardwuar/Nuzzi interview.

Even when they do the right thing, these soft-skulled babies still have to complain about how they are doing so under duress because the big bad Democrats are being mean to them.

Ben Shapiro: “When the president said deport all the illegal immigrants, I never thought that he meant that literally”

You have too many, or not enough? I'm going to need some clarification here

Prose purpler than an army of Grimaces.
It needs to be emphasized that this paragraph is about Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Ben supposedly was a failed screenwriter in his earlier life, so there are quite a few not-very-complex psychological storms raging here.

The situation where you ... use articles?
Trump: We’re going to make the American Dream a word that—two words that you didn’t have. Remember when Biden said it’s all about three words: The American Dream. You don’t ever want to get in that situation.

I cannot stress enough that there are ways to make this point without bringing up the old "dual loyalties" trope.
So @50501movement.bsky.social is circulating a video of a guy saying candidates "are being paid to be Israel first, to be loyal to the Zionist project and not to their constituents, not to the American people." Which is just a hairs breadth away from saying "Zionist Occupied Government." Not great!

Even if this was true, does he think "under President Trump, the job market for new college grads really sucks" is a good message or a bad message to be sending to voters.
Kevin Hassett: "I think there could be a little bit of an almost quiet time in the labor market, because firms are finding that AI is making their workers so productive that they don't necessarily have to hire the new kids out of college and so on."

"Harassment" = activists chalked some very anodyne slogans along the lines of "immigrants are good" on the sidewalk outside their house.
lol cry me a river bitch

Wonder how long he spent workshopping that one.
When you're explaining your nicknames, you're losing.

LOL, he's spiraling.
Trump: "House Republicans should vote to release the Epstein files, because we have nothing to hide."
November 17, 2025 at 3:46 AM
But see, it feels believable, and I'm told that's all I need anymore.
ICYMI (like I did) yesterday, here is a reporter from Business Insider relaying a statement from Mark Epstein, saying that when he emailed his brother in 2018 suggesting he ask Steve Bannon if Putin had “the photos of Trump blowing Bubba,” it was just a joke and was not a reference to Bill Clinton.

Weird way for Bessent to tell us he favors full restoration of the Voting Rights Act, but I'll take it.
Bessent on tariffs: "This is one of President Trump's signature policies, and traditionally the Supreme Court does not interfere with a president's signature policy."

Don't miss Bovino's response, when he tells the spectators "We're making the city safer for you." Buddy, you are very much not doing that.
SOMEONE: Fuck you!

BOVINO: That’s not very nice.

THE MOST MOM VOICE YOU’VE EVER HEARD: Well, are you doing nice things?
Bovino is taking part in CBP detentions in Charlotte. dickfc_w_l on TikTok.

Anybody got Brett Kavanaugh's email address?
A US citizen filmed federal agents smashing his car window, as authorities begin a surge of immigration enforcement operations in North Carolina.

The Honduran-born Charlotte resident filed a police report after the officers let him go.

Or you could skip that step and just keep giving me the tax credit and I'll still sign up for the best insurance plan of the 15 or 20 that are offered on my state's exchange. Jesus, these idiots have no idea how it works.
Dr Oz: "If you had a check in the mail, you could buy the insurance you thought was best for you"

"This is completely shocking to everyone." Marge, I can assure you, it very much is not.
Trump literally putting Marge’s life in danger because she wants to see the Epstein files

Normalize understanding that amoral careerists being capable of individual kindness does not make them any less of an amoral careerist.
what the actual fuck is wrong with American journalists?

Montpelier has, I believe, made an effort in recent years to put more of a spotlight on the slaves Madison kept there. Even restored some of their living quarters. Normal people don't have a problem with it, but of course Heritage would.
Can anyone confirm Heritage’s strange claim that Montpelier has no exhibits on James Madison? And also, the Constitution protected the institution of slavery in several ways, an institution that made Madison’s entire economic existence possible. Madison owned ~100 people and freed none of them.

Hey look, someone irradiated a Howdy Doody doll.
I know the real concern is the lack of journalistic integrity but I think the real crime here is seeing this face and thinking to yourself "yes I need more of that" His eyes don't even line up. This is a clear case of royals inbreeding
