Actually, if I read this and the linked article correctly, it’s backwards.  The Pentagon was going to send troops home, but Esper said they should stay in D.C. (possibly at Trump’s insistence.)

A complaint of Karens

I thought TikTok hid users just for being “poor” or “ugly”, not for being black.

Sadly enough, it still usually has consequences for black people more than for white callers. Incidents where it has gone the other way are rare, but are becoming more common, thanks to smartphone videos. May we wypipo learn our lesson sooner rather than later.

According to the federal affidavit, Cooper admitted to Cogar and a postal inspector that he did alter the mail-in request forms saying it was meant “as a joke.”

Be sure to either protect or denounce the Coopers you come across the rest of this week. Some need the former and some need the latter.

Drinking bleach? How much whiter does Trump want his followers to be?

Trump. The small-handed manhandler and mishandler in chief, always flying off the handle, who doesn’t even need handlers to show him him how to sabotage everything.

How about this alternate headline:

They’re getting old and hard-of-hearing... and even more hard-headed.

Maybe he’s inadvertently discovered the vaccine against COVID-19 and it consists of a sedentary lifestyle, fatty foods, and therapeutic lying. If so, the man really is a genius!

Inevitably, parents will pick a school based on concerns about quality and safety—concepts that are profoundly shaped by racial and class biases.

If Mexico were to actually pay for the wall, how long of a manufacturer’s warranty would they get, assuming they’d even want to keep the thing in the first place? How long would they have to return it to the store and get a refund or trade it for different item?

Yup.  Those who blow hard can dish it out, but they can’t take it!

Maybe some people don’t know how the commenting system works. It’d be nice if there was a “Disparaging Reply” button, that automatically quoted a gray’s comment without pulling them out of the swamp.

Has Trump ever apologized for anything? I know he has a tweet for every occasion, but I’d be very surprised if one of them includes a real apology.

I very much appreciate the Obamas. That being said, should Malia have been treated like royalty, and given a pass as a disruptive audience member? Sounds like a very democratic situation, assuming she was singled out strictly for being disruptive. Maybe in hindsight she even appreciated being treated as rudely as an…

A couple of years ago, I rewatched the whole TNG series... and came away thinking that we live in an alternate timeline, a rare one where the show wasn’t killed off after the awful first season, it was given a chance to get good, we got DS9, Voyager, etc. In most of the multiverse’s timelines, TNG is like Tasha Yar…

Go sit in the back... go sit in the front... why can’t us white people ever make up our minds as to where we want Rosa Parks, Sultan Benson, and other black people to sit? How about “wherever they want!” (Hopefully they won’t sit on top of us, though, even though we’d deserve it. Yet I suspect that you are often classi…

I don’t think there’d be a student brave enough to wear this design on a t-shirt in Franklin County... but I am curious as to what the school board would say about it. Or how about a shirt that would have the unaltered Confederate flag and the words “Emblem of Enslavers” above it?  Freedom of expression, right? They…
