What a clown
STEPHANOPOULOS: I didn't insinuate anything. I asked you whether Tom Homan accepted $50k as was heard on an audio tape recorded by the FBI in September 2024. You did not answer the question. Thank you for your time.

VANCE: No, George, I sai--

STEPHANOPOULOS: We'll be right back

Bad for the economy 100%, but maybe it’s time we all stayed put for a few years. Reduce carbon emissions, get our sh*t together, stop killing each other, etc… 😊
Turns out that if you start detaining people at your border because they said a mean thing about your President, people will just stop coming.

The thing where airlines boast about getting you to your destination faster but making you sit on the tarmac because the other plane hasn’t left the gate is bonkers. I’d rather be in the air.

Breezed past Steven Spielberg and his wife Kate Capshaw. As I was telling Dan about their enormous body guard, he looked back and it was Patty LuPone. We’re basically the Astors.

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism.

We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

There is something deeply amusing about musklings coming here and realizing there’s no algorithm to boost their rage bait, which was their main advantage.

We do all realize misinformation is free and factual information is behind a paywall, yes?
