It's got a smoky flavor

[josh (oldfriend99) @oldfriend99]

The air quality sucks today.. but the smoke quality is pretty good

[James Surowiecki @JamesSurowiecki]

No - once you decide to become responsible for helping sick people get drugs they need to stay alive (which was an excellent decision), you accept that if you stop that assistance, people will die. Musk - and his ridiculous supporters, like Rufo - want to avoid that fact.

@JoyceCarolOates Hmm... Rogozhin from The Idiot?

Wemby can’t summon the hate required to win when he’s playing against a walkable city

Idi Amin is the best modern political analog to Trump; the best historical one is Andronikos Komnenos in the Byzantine empire (look it up!); and the best fictional analog is Joe Pesci's character in Casino (except for the fact that Nicki is very affectionate with his kids)

Supreme Court today: We'll allow Alabama Republicans to change the congressional map in the primary election even though absentee voting has literally already started

Supreme Court last December: November's too late to strike down the GOP's map in TX's March primary election!!

[Ted Lieu @tedlieu]

Here are three things that will happen:

1. DOJ will lose the Comey case.

2. In the next Administration, Comey will get a big monetary settlement for selective prosecution.

3. After this Administration ends, @DAGToddBlanche will get disbarred.

Looking forward to a thunderous, ecstatic 5 minute long chant of "Ball-room! Ball-room!" at the 2028 Republican convention

@JoyceCarolOates The two arguments ending in fisticuffs between Hoffa and Tony Pro are among the very funniest scenes in 21st century cinema

[Todd Hedrick @ToddHedrick13]

In the better days to come, I will look back fondly on "the ballroom" as recurring comic subplot in an otherwise dark and grimy tale.

Ashley St. Clair confirmed the WH runs group chats telling these accounts what to post. Within minutes of shots fired tonight, before there was any news of casualties and before the President said this exact talking point, this was the chat in real time.

(on a first date) so you see, Hannibal's inability to successfully besiege Rome is equivalent to Trump being unable to open the Strait of Hormuz at an acceptable cost--*tactically* both held enormous advantages but *strategically" they couldn't parlay this into any advantage

[Todd Hedrick @ToddHedrick13]

@lionel_trolling Springtime for Trump!

[Dan Rivers @danriversitv]

No one bets $1.5 billion unless they are sure and have insider information. This isn’t the first time either. There should be an outcry in the USA about this. Also unnoticed by many, SEC Enforcement Division Director Margaret Ryan resigned last Monday after just over six months on the job, after clashing with her bosses over investigating Trump family trades.

[Todd Hedrick @ToddHedrick13]

Luckily, our true friends--the great powers of El Salvador and Hungary--all have impressive naval air defense and mine sweeping capabilities.

[Mohit Chauhan @mohitlaws]

Donald Trump asked the world to join a multinational naval coalition to keep the Strait of Hormuz open.

Ever since Barry White became editor-in-chief of CBS I’ve noticed a definite bias toward lovemaking in their reporting

I would walk 500 miles, but that’s it (seems like that should be enough)
