You know who doesn’t own the media? Nick Denton. At least for the time being. I miss Gawker.

Illinois has the perfect partisan election system for judges at all levels. For instance, in Cook County you’ll get a ballot with a list at least as long as your arm of judges to vote for. What you do is vote for the judge with your favorite ethnic/racial sounding name. So if you’re Irish you vote for Patrick “Erin go…

Rachael Pritzker is also a chief funder of Environmental Progress Illinois. An environmental group pushing nuclear power plant bailouts. Like the big bailout Illinois gave Exelon for two of its plants. Third way environmentalism is for any asshole who doesn’t have their groundwater well abandoned due to uranium…

It’s like 1940s Lawndale meets Cicero and Berwyn in the Oval Office. This reference is to Chicago’s great “Vest side” with the highest concentration of eastern Europeans outside eastern Europe. Except the southern Europeans ran the place - behind the scenes. OK, the westside Irish were there, but to the north in…

What’s “My Struggle” in Korean?

Man o’ man, I was forced to read “My Name is Asher Lev” by my mom as a kid - almost Clockwork Orange style. Reading is for girls. I don’t see a lot of similarities between Asher and Stephen. I’m really confused right now. Little Stephen Miller doesn’t seem like a very good boy - at least to those of us who are not…

Fucking football in America. Maybe there’s a 155 pound white kid in the middle of the Midwest who can’t punt, pass and kick very well - at all - who will finally be given the chance to play pro ball. Given that all the talented players have been exiled.

He’s busting balls of Chicago trade unions such as operating engineers, electrical workers, carpenters, iron workers, plumbers & pipefitters, sheet metal, etc to open shop for more people of color on construction of the Obama library. Some are saying Obama LLC will bring in Kenyan workers and recently deported…

Nice glasses, bro.

Jesus Christ, she’s got hands like a Swedish bricklayer. I was already to look past the work she’s had done, but nope. Man hands aren’t my thing. They are to some so please forgive me if my comment comes off as body shaming.

There is actually a criminal enforcement division of the US EPA. It was set up to nail polluters purposely violating environmental laws. Pruitt may have fired EPA officers from previous administrations and hired a bunch of messianic christian Blackwater alumni thugs to rough up the liberal media.

I’d say somewhere between bemused and “Oh god, don’t go there, girl.”

Isn’t it Vince Foster?

Good thing she didn’t say potato latkes - the democrats would have lost even more ethnics to the republicans.

Hillary Clinton lost because of that dumb cookie baking comment back in 1992 at the Busy Bee Restaurant - owned and ran by Sophie Madji.

“Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.” - Waterboarded interrogatee No. 17.

To be fair, that was pretty much the response after news of concentration camps was broadcasted out to the hinterlands of America. There wasn’t NPR in western Nebraska back in the day. At least Fox and Friends aren’t making jokes like, “how many Palestinians can you fit into a VW Beetle?” Or maybe they are. Who knows,…

Fair enough. Ryan could go back to the family earthmoving business and help secure infrastructure contracts. Maybe rebuild the interstates out of Wisconsin to move government cheese faster out to the red states after he cuts SNAP out of the farm bill. Or maybe convert the future Foxconn factory into a cheese…

You might be thinking of Manhattan and the Trump Tower on 5th Ave.

Paul can soon be spending more time lobbying for Mars Cheese Castle. See, it helps to have a influential politician who’s a bootstrapping libertarian and waterboy for billionaire assholes as your congressman:
