This is such a weird talking point. An organization that produces a shitload of disgruntled, troublesome ex-employees is ordinarily a poorly run organization.

Bert and Ernie aren't a couple. They're exes who still live together and whose excessive emotional involvement with each other prevents them from forming new, healthy romantic relationships.

Bret Bair reports that the request for National Guard is being "analyzed," but the Pentagon is concerned with the optics of uniformed military personnel in the Capitol Building. Yes, seriously.

It’s weird how there are these states like Georgia that are now purple but you still have to run as a Breitbart-style moron to get the GOP nomination. This is not how Republicans run statewide in, for example, Ohio.

I think it’s important to send a message that if you storm the Capitol you will get in trouble. That doesn’t mean you need harsh sentences for people who entered the building and didn’t do much, but you do need to prosecute them.

Phoenix, where an ordinary family can afford a house with central air, a real washer/dryer, over 2,000 SF of floor area, and a car with automatic transmission in the attached garage. Britain should be so lucky.

There is a reason why our cities don't look like Phoenix, Arizona, and why we still have something we call the countryside. Planning laws. Liz Truss, who has no electoral mandate, wants to sweep them away.

One thing that’s hilarious is the endless whining that people misconstrue what “defund” or “abolish” means. If you’re constantly having to explain that your slogan doesn’t mean what it sounds like, then your slogan sucks.

Look, I think the WH statement that Trump tested negative for coronavirus is probably true. But getting people to believe these statements when they’re important is a reason they shouldn’t have lied about his weight.

I remain confused why you would need a purpose-built app to report just a few thousand data points. You could have done it on any number of ordinary messaging platforms so long as you pre-credentialed the users.
