"What a sad state of affairs. What a tragedy. How small-minded, narcissistic." Maria Shriver reacts to the narcissist-in-chief shutting down the Kennedy Center (and potentially demolishing it) because he can't get his name on it like a giant toddler.

Ron White to Joe Rogan: Talarico didn't cost this state $6 million in fines and lawsuits, and that happened with Ken Paxton. Guess who paid that $6 million? You and me paid the $6 million for his bribery. His own party impeached him. He's a criminal. He's a piece of shit.

If you worked this little, you wouldn’t keep your job. The GOP-controlled House is scheduled to be in DC just 104 days this year. Through Sept. 16, only 21 days even ran 8+ hours — and that includes long recesses. Americans deserve a Congress that actually shows up and does the job.
