we have immigrant concentration camps, diarrhea lettuce, zillion dollar gas, suicidal soldiers, measles resurgence, national park land sold to the highest bidder and teachers crowdfunding school supplies, but the real problems facing our country are a muslim senate candidate and an influencer

Tal Kopan’s piece is awful. It mischaracterizes decades of one party jamming crowbars into the machinery of democratic governance and misattributing it to “Washington,” “Congress,” “lawmakers” and “both sides.” Seriously, do better. Meet the moment, please.

This has become a running gag, Bill; for months now Tillis has been complaining bitterly about the quality of the advice the president gets, as though some alien power forced upon him this gang of doofuses.

Not only is this exactly right, but MSM inability to face it is what makes 70-90% of commentary unreadable category error. And Fran Lebowitz’s “you think you know how stupid DJT is, but you don’t,” can be extended to the rest of the assessment www.lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2026/07/they...

Commenters Thom and WeWantPie pointed to this brilliant piece of analysis from Tim Kreider. What’s brilliant about it is that it states what should and in some sense is obvious, but does so with a kin...

I wonder if there’s a 3-letter word that starts with L, ends with E and has an I in the middle and means the same thing as “conflict with reality.”

When AG Bondi’s over the top tribute to outgoing phony USA Halligan fabricates an entire roster of criminals she supposedly prosecuted (pure fiction), what keeps press biggies from stating ever after that Bondi’s a shameless brazen liar? Is that no longer disqualifying to be Attorney General?

It’s notable that the president can go on TV and be a total gutter racist, and somehow this isn’t news in the slightest. Says a lot about the sickness of American society right now.
