This reads like it was written this afternoon, before the actual parade took place
Planes roared over D.C. on Saturday, tanks rolled along the National Mall, brass bands resounded and thousands of soldiers marched past cheering crowds, as the Army put on the largest show of military might in the capital in more than three decades. wapo.st/4dYFOck

Sen. Peter Squelch (Black Faced Shealthbill party) addressing congress today. He is attempting to champion a resolution to sell penguin eggs in return for tariff renegotiation. So far, he’s received cold shoulders and some Senators who’ve even flipped the bird, in a typically polite Ice House.

Ukraine gave up the world’s third largest stockpile of nuclear weapons in exchange for security guaranties.
Which we didn’t provide. And now Trump is throwing them under the bus altogether.
You know what one of the outcomes of this will be?
No country with nukes will ever give them up again.

This isn't about Zelenskyy, a patriot and hero. This is about an American administration penetrated and compromised by America's enemies.

Brett Baier seems legitimately confused by the sight of a politician who’s not a spineless loser and given his usual guests I guess that makes sense
Baier: Right. I'm not hearing from you, Mr. President, a thought that you owe the president an apology?
Zelenskyy: No. I respect president. And I respect American people. And I'm not sure that we did something bad

Could headlines please not just take for granted that Trump “is doing” stuff he has no legal authority to do just because he said so? Because the implication to the reader is that he can in fact legitimately do these things.

Are we great yet, America?
It hasn't seemed particularly great to me lately, so I started asking around:
I asked a grandmother in Texas, terrified that her social security and Medicare may soon be evaporating. She wasn’t convinced.

Everyone has things in their career of which they're ashamed.
Nothing...and I mean nothing...in my career in politics makes me more ashamed and regretful than supporting and promoting Marco Rubio.
He is the most craven betrayer of his stated ideals of any human I've ever met.

I personally will continue to use "Gulf of Mexico" because our president is a wrathful felonious nincompoop with the intellect of paramecium and I do not consent to his cartographic buffoonery
Encyclopædia Britannica will continue to use ‘Gulf of Mexico’ for a few reasons:
-We serve an international audience, a majority of which is outside the U.S.
-The Gulf of Mexico is an international body of water, and the U.S.’s authority to rename it is ambiguous.

Former President Lyndon B. Johnson once said this.
A lot of rural voters are sadly going to learn that their Medicare, Medicaid and SNAP benefits have been cut in order to give tax breaks to very wealthy people.
But many will think it’s all worth it in order to “stop the woke.”
Learn, guys.

Trump’s closing message is a full blown hate campaign against black and brown people. Historians will look back in astonishment that this terrifying reality wasn’t the subject of wall to wall coverage and commentary in weeks leading up to this election. He’s not hiding anything.

Even the few black GOP strategists and surrogates who were pressing their cases before the election didn’t end up getting jobs. Because, of course they wouldn’t. And they’re not so visible now.
