It’s mind-boggling that Andy Borowitz hasn’t simply thrown up his hands and walked away.

I’m pretty sure that DeSantis doesn’t give a happy rat’s ass about the environment. That said, he’d have to be an even bigger idiot than I give him credit for if he couldn’t look at the numbers. There’s no way that Florida would see enough of a benefit from off-shore drilling to offset the risk to the tourism…

Oh, come now. Surely you don’t think that we can have nuance in our approach to the world, do you?

It’s still a thing because it’s still a major fundraiser for a good cause, even if it became a circus side-show in the 1980s. Until then, it was largely an industry affair, handing out its awards and scholarships without much fanfare.

The writing was really good and really funny, anyway. Unfortunately for Wolf, her voice is grating, like nails on a chalkboard. As a one-time event, it’s fine, but you have to be a pretty big fan to listen to it every week. 

I’m guessing that the historian will be telling soothing stories about the fabulous history of journalists as the upholders of truth and freedom.

I keep looking, but I can’t seem to find Mulvaney’s fallback position in the code anywhere. You know, his claim that Congress can’t ask for these returns without some really, really, really good reason - and that it doesn’t matter if they have a really, really, really good reason because he doesn’t believe that’s…

True enough, but those local agencies don’t have federal jurisdiction. They cannot arrest on federal charges unless there is a warrant issued by a federal judge, which is something that can’t happen if Barr refuses to allow USAs to file charges. 

I hereby renew my standing offer to absolutely take a turn at Weekend-at-Bernie’s-ing if it should become necessary.

But only after I made sure that someone else had to take him home at the end of the day. 

Not to mention that plumbers, mechanics, electricians, and a host of other skilled trades are generally required to have some pretty serious abilities in a lot of areas that are normally thought of as academic. If you’ve ever seen the licensing test for a master plumber or electrician, for instance, you quickly…

The trade deficit in the United States narrowed to USD 51.1 billion in January of 2019 from an upwardly revised USD 59.9 billion in the previous month, which was the largest since 2008.

They’ll also have a lawsuit and an injunction before they can process the first batch of applications. Firing people for participating in union activities is illegal retaliation. 

Yes, there is a depressing number of mostly incompetent people who have been led to believe that the ability to string together words in a semi-coherent manner is the same as being a writer, and this is a state of affairs that has left all of us dumber as a result.

He’s tolerated because even though his voting record is less-than-Democratic, his existence helps put Democrats in the majority - which by extension, gives them control of committees and the ability to actually bring legislation to the floor. And if there’s anyone who doesn’t think that these things are important,…

OK, that’s it. For the next March, we should descend upon D.C. with hundreds of thousands of little windmills. Set them up in ever-widening circles, with the White House at ground zero.

Such beautiful satire, dancing lightly along the edges of truthiness, and then you had to just go all overboard with the notion of the Democrats winning...

I’m not at all offended by her soft-core porn photos. I’m just offended that they’re so damn bad. 

Meh, the family seems more of the “wipe it under the table” type.

I live in the suburbs and have somehow managed to go out on a regular basis without setting foot in a Cheesecake Factory, a Chili’s, or an Olive Garden for at least the past 10 years. So?
