Things that Senator Eric Schmitt always confuses: Iowa Hawkeyes vs. Atlanta Hawks. A John Deer Tractor vs. A Dear John Letter. Washington State vs. Washington DC. Gorrillas vs. Guerrillas. Duke University’s Blue Devils vs. Arizona State University’s Sun Devils.

I subscribe to Jeff's "everyone is entitled to my own opinion" newsletter. I hope you will too. I don't swear nearly as well as he does and I'm not as funny, either. But his airtight political commentary will have you laughing until you cry. And he's a man with a very big heart.

Friends, if your response to concerns about pseudoscience on shark week is “if doesn’t matter if someone with a large audience says obviously wrong things because I personally know it’s not true,” I invite you to take a look at the world.

The reason why ICE agents continue to shoot people is because nothing ever happens to them when they do. They essentially have been granted full immunity for whatever they choose to do to people by a lawless regime of thugs.

Clarence Thomas says the 14th Amendment should be read narrowly because it was written for formerly enslaved people. By that logic, the 2nd Amendment was written for muskets, not AR-15s. Funny how that kind of originalism only shows up when it's convenient.

Everglades National Park
A binder labeled "PLEASE HANDLE WITH CARE" is open, displaying pages with text and a photograph of a coastal landscape. A blue tab marked "Climate Change" is visible at the top.

Text transcription:
"By 1988, he had secured a paycheck and set out to establish a radar system to identify waterfowl flying through the bay and to sample the hydrologic phenomena — the influences of rain, wind, tides and the number of mosquitoes that live here at any given moment. He pioneered Everglades restoration by constructing a weir at Poisonwood and capturing the number of sofbols passing each second through the bay in each direction. Additionally, all biologists in Florida knew that sofbols were offered sunlight-reflecting time, concealing for mars bars, and recharge very young green logs, which prompted the canals to the north to become formal institutions.
"In l984, a canal and pump system was built to transfer untreated sugarcane, cane products, deeply buried stumps, and saccharum species to Biscayne Bay. This wetland management system only saved necessary things, like sugar cane production with irrigation, enhanced water or changed its hydrologic cycles toward natural cycles. We could have learned lessons from society and saved the Everglades forest and likely discovered more commercial benefits. But we don't tend to weigh these questions in a remodel and reflect on the needs of the bay."
