Yes actually, the American people do want Merrick Garland to investigate the president, including raiding his trash palace when necessary, and charge him should it turn out he did all the crimes. (He did all the crimes.) (MSNBC) 

Carl Paladino just kidding when he said we should execute Merrick Garland. Presumably the other two Republican candidates for Congress who said the same thing were just kidding too. — WNY News Now

The Real Inflation Reduction Acts. The IRA is great except for its name, which conceals super worthy goals behind a supposedly uncontroversial title. What Biden is actually doing on inflation is all these other things, which are good too. (Certain pals among you, can you attemptto read past the opening grafs critical of the IRA's name and general Democratic scaredycatness to see the appreciation for the policies on the other side?) (The American Prospect) 

Hey, guess who likes the Inflation Reduction Act, it is America! — American Independent 

Oh, Gavin Newsom is just money-cannoning $4.7 BILLION for kids' mental health? Looks like Gavin's taking the awesome blue state governor nuclear arms race of awesomeness! Better get cooking, Gretchen Whitmer! I haven't heard an awesome announcement from you in at least three days! — Newsom

Why haven't you jerks got me an Icelandic horse email assistant? 

A brief history of the singular they, in case you thought there was something new about this. — OED 

A harrowing tale of ... cooking beets. Seriously, I was so stressed out by this you guys. — Tom Scocca at Indignity 

Northeast Wonkers! Pack your tent and your marshmallow stix if you are ready to go join Holly and Paul for their Wonkommitment Ceremony on Labor Day weekend in the Berkshires! I mean look at this shit:

The rest of y'all: Seize the means of Wonkmeet production! (Wonkmeet, a service by Uncle Milty and Jen) 

Why yes I will give $25 to Mary Peltola, running for Congress in Alaska against Sarah Palin. I invite you bitches to match me, if you are able!
