Why is the Washington Post running ads for Susan Collins in their social media headlines? If you remove the phrase "who steers millions of dollars to Maine" you end up with a standard A-political recap of the debate that doesn't sound clunky as hell. And yet....

"Lindsey Graham liked his sister more than he liked me and it made me very jealous. Anyway, vote for her." It's so fucking weird.

I’ve been a media witness to two federal executions. One was Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh. The other, a week later, was a drug kingpin named Juan Raul Garza. My conclusion after watching both men die: The death penalty should not exist. Period. It fixes nothing, and it erodes our souls.

Great replacement theory but for book awards. Bret thought he was being really smart and insightful here, huh? He probably got paid more for this hack column than the average family makes in a year.

every story like this now makes me think of the boaters in Michigan who thought the river would bring them back to their car, the reason people spend so much time talking about the median voter but never seem to know any is because the median voter is an idiot you wouldn't trust to watch paint dry

I take the Occam's Razor approach. He genuinely believes that no one will protest if it's for the military because how could they? Only a trader would protest against a strong military. It's not a sexy reason, but he is a pretty basic guy.

This is spectacular, folks. We live in a moment in American history when the president and his administration are so racist and dumb that a toy company has to put out a statement saying: "OUR GIANT ROBOT THAT TURNS INTO A TRUCK DENOUNCES RACISM AND HAS NO CONNECTION TO THE CURRENT PRESIDENT."

I come from Yoopers. I went to elementary school in the Midland/Bay City/Saginaw area. Until middle school, I believed that this war was taught at the same level as the Civil War or World War II.

I was in cross country in high school. We all ran our races at the same time. So I guess I don't understand this sacred fairness in children's sports nonsense. And I know that it's just their way of safely expressing their bigotry through the last monoculture, but they sound weird.

There’s such an easy answer to this “gotcha” question and it’s “Sports are inherently unsafe and unfair and it’s ridiculous to single out trans athletes when we allow 150 pound linebackers to go up against 260 pound linemen in freshman football on a daily basis. Let kids play with their friends.”

As gas prices soar it’s important to remember that the vast majority of the time, the spike in cost is not the president’s fault, but this time it’s absolutely the president’s fault.
