Q: What did you see in the second strike?
Cotton: "I saw two survivors trying to flip a boat -- loaded with drugs, bound for the United States -- back over, so they could stay in the fight."

As Justice Kagan begins her dissent by pointing out, what is even the point of trial, of fact-finding, of clear error, of standards of review, when the Supreme Court simply ignores every single part of that and decides everything purely on the papers without any real consideration of the facts?

Sean Duffy on slashing fuel economy standards: "This rule will actually allow you to bring back the 1970s station wagon. Maybe a little wood paneling on the side. We can bring back choice to consumers."

You'd think the President repeatedly spewing increasingly more racist shit daily would be newsworthy. Maybe one could even call it a trend. Perhaps it can tell us something about the Republican party broadly.
Or maybe journalists can keep grading Trump on a curve because this is "normal" for him.

Once again, "imagine getting to place a side bet on your kids soccer game" is an indicator of severe levels of degeneracy and in a healthier/more functional society, we would nuke these ppl & their entire business model from orbit
Oh, no it’s even worse than that. I was in a pitch meeting for one of these that said “imagine getting to place a side bet on your kid’s soccer game”. Their plan was to bet on people completing everyday activities
Fuckin people watching Netflix making prop bets on what minute of the episode we’re first gonna see Vecna. People betting on whether it’s gonna be a Toyotathon commercial or an Activia commercial. Just a little QR code in the bottom corner of every show asking you to bet on everything.

I don’t want to be pollyannish about the past, but it was basically inconceivable twenty years ago that a president would say this publicly
