More: All government processes and departments have been underfunded, under-resourced and working with limited expertise under Trump. The alleged DC shooter was given asylum under the Trump-Musk DOGE era, when DC was in chaos and Trump was harping on Biden leaving Afghans behind.

Elon Musk, the guy who did two Nazi salutes in public and has previously described himself as a “free speech absolutist,” thinks it should be a crime to “falsely” call someone a Nazi or a fascist.

The new Vanity Fair editor sought to make his magazine less woke and some of his first moves were hiring Olivia Nuzzi, publishing an abstract nude of Nuzzi by a person now alleged to have made illegal recordings on her behalf, and putting only men in the Hollywood issue

Market Basket was lit just now. The most important shopping evening of the year and the whole place is chock full of people who have never been to Market Basket before, who may have never once seen groceries.
I have bathed in the luscious bedlam and come out the other side warshed pure of my sins.
