Today is National/World Walrus Day! These semi-aquatic mammals, which are a type of seal, share similar bones with humans. Their specialized forelimbs have evolved for swimming.

Well since "drain the swamp" dates to the mid-1800s, I'm going to guess–and this is going to be a wild guess–
Tens of thousands of politicians throughout history.

Here's some real talk: Dem strategists urging Dems to avoid the "trap" of talking about Trump occupying cities are saying this precisely in order to get quoted in NYT and elsewhere, and everyone involved in this charade knows it.

Now the DNC should keep pretending they're doing a convention until Trump is fully committed.
Pretending, because holding a convention that shifts attention to the out-party, away from the incumbent, right before the midterms is self-evidently dumb. Fire Ken Martin.

Btw. this comes after the DNC Chair floated holding a convention before the midterms and I bet someone on TV mentioned it and that's how he got the idea to do it too.

Pity the poor Senator. Work is so unfufilling because of all the dumb rules that God made. And it's lonely too! No one from the other party holds hands in public anymore like all the Senators used to do when being a Senator wasn't just politics but racism too

In the 90s my Dad had a friend, Jerry, who loved brewing beer at home. That was his hobby. His full-time job was working for the federal government.
Then Jerry opened a brewery (Old Dominion) and his hobby became his job.
This is what happened with the internet: hobbies became (paying) jobs.
