Someone should show him the battle of Helm’s deep.

Surprise twist: it was 30-year-old Ivanka all along. Probably.

I can’t wait for Paul Ryan’s take on this. “Well, of course I don’t agree with the Nazis, but President Trump is responsible for picking his own team. Now let me tell you about this great new health plan! We found a way to bump another 24 million people off of Medicaid!”

Remember last year when it would have been surprising to learn that one of the president’s aides was a Nazi supporter? Good times, good times.

Yeah I would think that, I don’t know, becoming a Marine is perhaps more difficult than just, like, not raping people? Or posting pictures on the internet without their consent? One of those involves a really high level of skill, dedication, mental fortitude, and physical fitness and the other......literally requires…

This selflessness is derived from bonding, and bonding from shared events and the unquestioning subordination of self for the good of the team. But what destroys this alchemy — and, therefore, combat effectiveness — are pettiness, rumor-mongering, suspicion, and jealousy. And when fighting spirit is lessoned, death is…

Just gonna leave this here:

He was making acid wash jeans.

The distinction so many of the online reactions to the dismissals seem to be missing (and that I’m really glad this article makes note of) is that dismissals of this sort are completely normal for incoming administrations (former Presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush dismissed similar numbers of US Attorneys),…

The Daily Beast reported back in September that Bharara’s office was investigating money laundering within the Russian government.

Can we also talk about the fact that Chrissy Teigen “sleeping” through his acceptance speech was probably not a coincidence?

Frequently I will sit at home and think about how much I appreciate mail carriers and be so impressed with myself that I just have to go on a blog for mail carriers and post about it. Frequently mail carriers themselves don’t know nearly as much about the history or importance of the mail, or the lived experience of…

Dear Jefferson Beuragard Sessions III- if you want to understand what’s so wrong with what you did, just think about how you would feel if Hillary Clinton did it.

The reactionary right has a long tradition of using liberal principles and institutions to create access for themselves—and then turning around and slamming the door on everybody else. They’ve done this with everything from their political takeover of legislatures across the country, to the little games they play with…

Literally nothing he has said since being elected hasn’t confirmed what we knew the whole time, that Donald Trump is a neophyte who has never actually done any hard thinking in his life, and whose only previous hard job was deciding which model he was going to hit on once he named them a winner.

I think the difference is the respect for the institutions of government and of the American people. GWB had bad policy that tanked the economy and got us into unwinnable, destabilizing, unjustifiable wars. But he at least respected the office of the Presidency, the humanity of Muslims and immigrants, and while he…

Side eye at Dick Cheney.

We need allies from every end of the political spectrum right now so let’s just be glad Bush stepped away from his easel, where he’s very busy making outsider art, to speak up.

This is a remarkably self aware comment from W. Almost too self aware.
