Is this what’s in Trump’s panties? (Honda Walking Assist)
He and whatever is in his panties are very happy Alexander Vindman lost his primary, and they look forward to Vindman shaking off that loss so he can lose the general as well! (Joe. My. God.)
Natalie declined to seek a security clearance for more than a year, and you can just do that and keep working in the Oval Office? Good to know!

Abdul El-Sayed might win the US Senate seat for Michigan or he might not. This poll says he will! (Mediaite) Considering I called Kamala Harris with a Reagan-styley 49 states, nobody should ever listen to me. (But I still think he wins.) (Everything Is Horrible)

If you want to read 27 pages of a now-suspended judge being the cleverest wag in O-hi-o, then by all means. But damn, now-suspended Ohio judge. Good lord. (Disciplinary board ruling)
Delta airlines employees did a very cool, very clever “help ICE get this US citizen man into their rat trap,” good job Delta employees! (WSBTV) You know what they could have done? The opposite, like this United gate agent who can sleep at night! (Time)
Yes his popularity really is in the shitter as evinced by this going-out-of-business Trump superstore, but don’t think his pissed off former fans are some kind of Democrats. They still hate illegals real good! (Slate)
Hahahaha, we could have had public child care under Nixon! Two years before I was born! And I am 53 years old! Hahahaha! (Dame magazine)
Melanoma CANCER VAXX. (StatNews)
Did everybody know that Antonio Banderas is super eloquent and thoughtful? Oh, we all did? Yes, we all did! Antonio Banderas on Almodovar and Sondheim and God and goodness and Anthony Bourdain, and WELL! Wow! Okay! Huh! (New Yorker)
