This guy is the James Carville of football. Won something 20 years ago and people keep paying him to make an ass of himself on TV while he blames everyone around him for the teams failures
Aaron Rodgers turns 42 today. Will he be playing next year, when he turns 43?

this book banning shit is *infuriating* to me, not only as a writer and a human being, but as a parent. I do not give a tiny rat’s ass what you allow or don’t allow your own kids to read. but how fucking dare you decide what MY kid gets to have access to. parent your own kids, you loser weirdos!!!
If you don't want to read a book about a magnificent unicorn who accidentally sits in some paint and feels silly (and then discovers he's still lovable in his mistake), then that's fine. But to ban this book (for 10 years!) to make sure no one else can read it because of the word "heinie"? SMH. 8/

I know it's too easy to grow numb to the constant flood of bigotry that comes out of his mouth but it does seem morally important you don't allow yourself or anyone else to become desensitized to this vile racism as a normal part of our politics
Trump on Somalis: "We're gonna go the wrong way if we keep taking in garbage into our country. Ilhan Omar is garbage. She's garbage. Her friends are garbage."

-We are at war with "narcoterrorists"! To prove it, we will murder people on boats!

-Cut drug crime prosecutions to their lowest level in 25 years

DOJ's claim that re-assigning thousands of agents to immigration has had no impact on its other work is demonstrably untrue. Court dockets show the number of people charged with drug crimes this year is the lowest in at least three decades.

talking to reporters last night, Trump claimed of Hegseth's double tap strike that "I don't know anything about it," then moments later claimed "I don't who you're talking about" when asked his plan to pardon the former Honduran president

this is at least the second time he’s claimed he doesn’t know anything about a pardon he has ostensibly signed, and i feel like that’s two times too many without a follow up question from the press corpse

Trump needs you to simultaneously believe that it's nuts to think the president of a country could actually be a drug trafficker, and that we are going to war with another country because its president is actually a drug trafficker.
Reporter: You have made so clear how you want to keep drugs out of the US—
Trump: Right
Reporter: Can you explain why you would pardon a notorious drug trafficker?
Trump: If somebody sells drugs in that country, that doesn’t mean you arrest the president

This explains something that has always mystified me about drivers who rail against bike lanes and transit. Why WOULDN'T you want people to have options not to drive? It would make your own driving better! But they don't just want good traffic, they want to reinforce the NORM of driving
This is actually quite brilliant, up to and including the final sentence 🔥

I can’t even imagine the weeks long meltdown if Biden had said something even half as bonkers as this about his health and cognitive state. Can’t do it.
Reporter: Governor Walz called for the release of your MRI results
Trump: They were perfect like my phone call where I got impeached.
Reporter: Can you tell us what they were looking at?
Trump: I have no idea. It was just an MRI. It wasn’t the brain because I took a cognitive test and aced it.
