Rick Steves told me i could travel to Europe with only a carry-on that measures 21” x 10” x 15”. I’m so excited to see if i can do it.

Exactly this. Go get a CNN show, as the president has suggested here, then go after Schumer in 2028. He would be a lion. But that’s not enough for him.

Swisher interviewed Yang a few years ago. She made the comment that he didn’t seem qualified to be mayor of New York to which he replied “what does that matter?” Buttigieg has always struck me as being from that same bolt of fabric.

Gary Gaetti was a Cub!?

I was wondering this morning what it would take to violate the 3rd amendment. There’s a reason they put that one at the top.

NPR has been shifting the Overton Window to the right since Clinton. It’s interesting how far it shifted before folks started to notice.

Love hearing an NPR reporter repeat Vought's line about "unconstitutional DEI principles" with nary a query about what the fuck that actually means. At some point we need journalists to make this administration explain some of these batshit utterances.

Give Democrats a reason to show up, please. Something more than…this.

My sponsor once told me i was going to too many meetings.

“The Program exists to give you your life back. You’re not out living if you’re spending all day in meetings.”

Six hours a day. Man. Go for a walk or something.

Trump to a room of generals: "I've never walked into a room so silent before. Just have a good time. And if you want to applaud, you applaud."

Whoever it is will get to hear four months of “…instead of Taylor Swift”

Jason Garrett shouting-out 1995 as though it was yesterday is everything wrong with Sunday Night Football. #snf

Is there a Democrat out there with the fortitude to fight to the end? I’ve yet to see one.

At least not one Constitutionally eligible.

Pre-Taylor Travis was 32. He’s played forty NFL games since then. It takes a toll.

Whether it’s Fox News’s Brian Kilmeade advocating killing homeless people by “involuntary lethal injection” or MSNBC’s Matthew Dowd bringing up things that Charlie Kirk said, both networks have crossed the boundaries of decency.

It’s only today that I’m starting to really understand how the algorithm has split us in two.

Jackie is the template here, right? Sell what you can of the enterprise, hide out in Scottsdale for a few years. Then marry an oilman or banker and move into Dallas society. Live out your years as a patron, showing up from time-to-time to get a plaque or bless some new church.

Don’t forget, Romney’s dad was born in a Mormon colony in Mexico. I don’t think you’ll have to go back eight generations to find an immigrant.

That said, your point is taken.

A friend tells me about her dad telling her son about this kid and that on Fox News who’s started a business and is a success by 19. He tells his teenage grandson to go make himself a success by the same age. As though it’s that easy. I can only imagine the messages this kid was getting from family.
