Aaron Rogers is what happens when CTE and MAGA collide.

The IndyCar Freedom 250 is slated to run August 23rd through the streets of DC. Here is a proposed livery I'm willing to help fund for some cash-strapped team.

The first news my eyes saw was that Lindsey Graham crossed the rainbow bridge in a big hurry. The irony of that while his party props up Mitch McConnell with a stick and goes full Weekend at Bernie's is a golden-hued level of karmatic WTAF. It's as though news writing has been fully relegated to AI.

The best question for a real journalist to ask Trump: "Mr. President, Graham Platner dropped out of the Maine Senate race based on allegations of sexual assault. Should you continue as President based on your sexual assault conviction, rejected appeals and judgement to the victim?"

If a large portion of America is demanding Eric Swalwell get out of the California Governor race based on allegations, when do we get the President out of office for actually being convicted of sexual abuse, not to mention all the other felonies?

Did I miss the part in the SOTU where the President honored Jesse Jackson for his lifetime of civil rights activism and asked his widow and children to take a bow? Was it before or after Erika dabbed at a tear?

Seriously. If Trump was canine and not human (physically, not emotionally), would we not have humanely euthanized it by now?

Why is Greg Bovino dressed like a Nazi, and what does DSP stand for again? Dip Sh!t Propaganda? When do we end this?

The MAGA alternate universe is comically apoplectic over a series of crudely concocted YouTube videos and clipped shorts from a twenty-something amateur “influencer” in a hoodie. The young buck likely convinced himself he could pull off an old-school Mike Wallace-style vigilante expose. The target?

Destruction of the East Wing of the White House hits me in many of the same ways as 9/11 did. The difference now is that the terrorist responsible lives there.

If Republicans control the executive, legislative, and judicial branches (including the Supreme Court), blaming Democrats for the shutdown stunt is either a Trumpian-level lie or glaring incompetence, or both. It is the only logical conclusion.

When will someone, ANYONE take action and invoke Amendment 25 or other meaningful measures? Our country is clearly under attack by domestic enemies. The President, administration, and every vestige of the Heritage Foundation, must be removed. It is an out-of-control criminal enterprise. Act quickly!

I'm watching ABC News Live on YouTubeTV, primarily to see their spin of the Kimmel story. Every break features multiple promos pushing Hulu packages. Evidently a lot of folks opted out in protest. Good.

Attention professional journalists: Instead of waiting for a list that will never arrive, why not connect with and record the stories of victims?

Is it too much to hope that military folks who will get paraded around Washington on Saturday will discover a collective conscience, uphold their oaths, and remove as many traces of the administration as possible? We have reached that point.

Newsom: "Democracy is under assault before our eyes. This moment we have feared has arrived. He's taking a wrecking ball to our Founding Father's historic project."

"These are dark days, but we are not alone and we will not be silenced." I don't know who said this but I agree. This is not the time to stay silent. We are at WAR people, and the enemy is our government! We are all Americans. We stand with our immigrants. We are all immigrants! Please share this.

It is exciting seeing normies rising up en masse in LA against ICE. The comical reality show that is Trump V2 has taken a disturbing turn toward Gestapo-like suppression, and blithering contestant Holman has called out the Guard. Mobilize, folks. This is inspiring.

A plea to any and all Republicans elected to national office: Find your spines again. Stop fellating the orange mushroom. Save the country.

How long will it take for someone formerly important to accidentally fall out a window, have sudden heart failure, or drop over dead on an airplane or at dinner? It feels like that is next on the bingo card.

Is anyone keeping track of Trump lies in this term? Last time he averaged 21 per day. That mark could easily fall.

The single most impressive thing about Bluesky is the ease and painlessness of deleting TwiXter permanently from my life. Now if we could only come up with Bluebook and Blueprime we'd be all set.

If church and state are supposed to be separate, why are there so many men of the cloth, all worshipping the same one god, taking up so much time at the inauguration?

Is there such a thing as a "block these bots" starter pack yet? Just curious. We may need one (or a thousand) after tomorrow.
