Two players on the Swiss team are Kosovo-Albanian. They had to move to Switzerland when the Serbs began their ethnic cleansing (genocide) on their people. When the Swiss played the Serb team, Serb hooligans chanted “Kill Albanians”during the game and were photographed wearing jerseys emblazoned with the face of Ratko Mladic, the Serbian general convicted last year of genocide and crimes against humanity for overseeing the ethnic cleansing of Muslims and Croats from half of Bosnia.

Isn't nationalistic sports competition grand?

This IKEA-trashing shit is why I always want England to lose in the World Cup. Soccer in England is often an excuse for the most boorish, racist nationalism. On the other hand, the Croatian team sung a World War 2 Fascist song to celebrate beating Russia, so vive la France, I suppose.

I haven't watched TV news since high school. And I sure don't intend to now.

WSJ says Judge Amy Coney Barrett's chances are "fading." Also from Peter Nicholas and Louise Radnofsky in the WSJ: "Mr. Trump has also voiced reservations about another candidate, federal Judge Raymond Kethledge, believing he didn't show the sort of energy the president likes to see in his appointees, one person close to the White House said.

Well, Hell, drag in a seven-year-old and give him three or four Hershey bars. This candidate will have all the energy required.

The infographic in Jonathan Chait's article is so complex you'll need a university education to understand it. I don't.

Rep. Jordan shouldn't worry. Didn't we already have a Speaker with experience in sexual predation of wrestlers?

It doesn't prove that government is incompetent. It proves the GOP is.
