Some Democrats also tried to claim the tea party protesters of 2009-2010 were astroturf plants that didn’t reflect a real backlash on the ground. Did not work out for them in that midterm election.

There’s an hour-long doc on the Cow Bell sketch that is DELIGHTFUL. Absolutely recommend.
I've absolutely loved these new SNL docs on Peacock. I'm a sucker for long explorations of the creative process and if you're the same, these are a delight.

The level of difficulty on this edit is off the charts. Might be the most impressive 7 minutes I’ve ever seen.
Take a break from your regularly scheduled doomscrolling and marvel at this clip. A jawdropping feat of editing by Questlove - incredible!

I don’t know *what* the Supreme Court will decide about Trump’s sentencing, but I know *when* they’ll decide it.

I have social plans from 6 to 8 p.m., which means SCOTUS will issue an order between 6 and 8 p.m.
