Doing "Nations Of The World" and not including Palestine while also somehow shoehorning Gulf of America in there
The funniest thing to happen now would be for Joyce Carol Oates to win the Nobel next year for her tweet. The least funny thing to happen would be Elon getting so incensed that he buys Warner Brothers and makes the Animaniacs anti-woke.

It really is something that they settled for a vote in the Senate that will likely fail and even if it were to pass, there's no guarantee it gets a House vote.
All of which has been incredibly obvious to anyone with a basic understanding of our politics

I will not support the Republican bill that’s on the Senate floor because it fails to do anything of substance to fix America’s healthcare crisis.

Whoa -- Sen. Durbin went to up Leader Thune during the vote last night to tell him that on the shutdown vote and ACA promise that "8 of us are sticking our neck out that you're going to keep your word. I hope you will. He said 'I assure you I will,'" Durbin says just now

It's not just that the Democratic party is a gerontocracy—it's a gerontocracy run by the people most likely to fall for Publishers Clearing House scam.
