Democrats - it’s everyone’s fear that they’ll turn into their parents so please don’t trigger me becoming my dad on the couch grumbling “they should call it the Prevent Wins defense”
For any elected official who needs to hear this, I impart a lesson learned from the NFL:

When the other team is tired and on the back foot, you don’t call a timeout so they can catch their breath. You grind their fucking face into the dirt until the final whistle blows and you’ve won the game.

if bovino is out and conservatives are turning on noem then there is a real opportunity to demand that miller resign too.

Voting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum.

Backing Kristi Noem’s impeachment is the bare minimum.

Holding law-breaking ICE agents legally accountable is the bare minimum.

ICE is beyond reform. Abolish it.

They’re making door knobs red hot and putting broken glass by the windows as we go door to door trying to disappear people. Feel bad for us!!!

Imagine being so smooth-brained that you think teaching the truth about events that happened and no one seriously disputes whether they happened, like the persecution, mass murder, land dispossession, forced migration, etc. of Native Americans == teaching people to hate America.
Elon Musk: "I'm a free speech absolutist!"

Also Elon Musk: "Anyone who teaches students that America was built on stolen land is guilty of treason and should be imprisoned."

Look, some of us tried to warn people that Elon Musk doesn't care one bit about free speech. But did anyone listen?

Singing it in your head to the tune of 🎶You’re gonna make it after all🎶 is the correct way to take in this art, right?

Ok, we can’t “afford” to let this insane idiot keep paying the country’s angriest losers to terrorize anyone who looks brown or lib. You getting on board now?!
NEW: Kristi Noem is facing by far the most credible impeachment effort of Trump's 2nd term. Some House Dems are fuming.

"Noem is just soup du jour," one told @axios.com. "It's all performative bullsh*t."

Centrists say they want to focus on affordability. www.axios.com/2026/01/14/k...
"Performative bullsh*t": Some Democrats fume as Kristi Noem impeachment gains steam
"There's a frustration with all these impeachments," said one House Democrat. "Noem is just soup du jour."

I was just denied entry to an important budget briefing in Governor Kim Reynolds' office, to which many other statehouse reporters were invited.

ICYMI: Minneapolis Public Schools will offer a virtual option for students until February 12th, starting next week. Educators, staff, and administration will begin to work to stand up this option for students tomorrow.

5 minutes into this episode I realized I had left a whole Tupperware of pretzel salad in my mom’s fridge 😭. A Midwest Christmas tragedy for the ages.

It was unintended, but I have a crystal clear memory of a friend answering a tough question correctly in a HS science class and the girl sitting next to him exclaiming, “Tyler! I didn’t know you were smart!”
What's an insult you'll never forget?

“Florida Conservative Groups Up In Arms Over Christmas Drag Performance”
We have reached the portion of this 70 year old movie that 2/3 of the current US federal administration would assert threatens the very fabric of society.

“Was heavily engaged with the University of Missouri football and basketball teams” is the new funniest I’ve ever seen on LinkedIn
This NYT story failed the reader by not digging deeper. One subject dropped out of college after one year (five years ago) and lists "Windows" as his skillset. Story should be: young conservatives who blame immigrants for their personal failures and whose lives won't be improved w/ fewer immigrants

Incumbent energy industries latching onto popular new concepts to advance clean energy and twisting them into a way to keep status quo fossil fuel businesses propped up?! Never heard of such a thing!
what schatz knows, because i used to talk to him about it, is american clean power represents far more than just the renewables sector, including utilities and storage companies working with fossil energy producers
